This is the original FIRST LP I ever purchased. The album is now 43 years old...and still sounds pretty good. A few click and pops...but I know every one of them was put there by me...and I can live with them.

I always loved Sly & the Family Stone. However you could never count on him showing up for his concerts. I went to see him three times back in the day and he only showed up once. Bummer as it was, the concert he did show up for was absolutely one of the most enjoyable.

Yeah...but don't the truly talented/gifted artists usually move to "the beat of a different drummer"? It's often that eccentricity and unpredictablity that allows them to do and create stuff that's beyond the norm.

Edgar Winter - Winter Blues

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41M157N2R7L._SL500_AA240_.jpg

Given the weather lately this one seemed appropriate.

Edgar is the overlooked albino Winter blues brother IMO. He often played and recorded with his older brother, Johnny...but Johnny always was in the forefront. Edgar is an accomplished bluesman in his own right. It is ironic that his greatest fame came from a "crossover" album, They Only Come Out At Night by the Edgar Winter Group. Hits Like "Frankenstein" and "Free Ride" became rock standards in the early 70's...and still get considerable air time on classic rock radio even today.

Winter Blues is well worth checking out. It is a live album recorded in 1999. His brother Johnny shows up on the album along with the horn section from his early band White Trash. He also brought along a few of his friends...Rick Derringer, Leon Russell, Dr. John and Eddie Money. They all make significant contributions to this album.

If you like the Blues...or any of the artists on this album...see if you can find this one and give it a spin. You won't be disappointed IMO.

Erin McKeowen - Hundreds of Lions

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41WTGTALVQL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

Erin McKeown first gained attention as a folky singer/songwriter, albeit one who crafted tunes with considerable pop music charm. Her music has expanded over the years, becoming more inclusive of styles like bluegrass, blues, jazz, classic pop, swing, reggae, and light rock. Her last studio effort, Sing You Sinners, was a collection of cover tunes from the '30s and '40s, putting her distinctive, throaty alto to good use with inventive arrangements that combined all of her musical interests. This outing could be seen as an extension of that set, with arrangements that bring bossa nova, '60s Brit-pop, and the heartbreaking folk ballads that first inspired her. "Santa Cruz" is a pop tune that brings to mind the mid-'60s work of Bacharach/David, a tale of missed connections and love gone awry, but the jittery percussion, jarring electric guitar, and McKeown's insistent vocal add an element of emotional darkness. Sustained organ notes and a somber, clanging electric guitar accent the somber mood of "(Put the Fun Back in The) Funeral." It captures the hopeless feeling of depression without completely plunging you into the abyss. "You, Sailor" and "Seamless" hark back to McKeown's folk roots. "Sailor" sounds traditional, just voice and guitar, a poignant song of yearning that uses the sea as a metaphor for the distance between lovers; "Seamless" is almost a cappella, with McKeownstrumming sparse guitar chords to support her desolate vocal and a striking punch line -- "How can we know that apocalypse and bliss are truly seamless?" "All That Time You Missed" is brighter musically, if not lyrically, with its bossa beat making its tale of lovers struggling for connection sound like a gentle dance. The Farfisa piano and handclaps on "The Rascal" give it an early Merseybeat feel as McKeowndelivers a lively vocal that belies the song's message of anguish. McKeown's in fine voice throughout and the backing players add subtle polish to her finely constructed tunes. Her fluid vocals remain the centerpiece of the album, while her lyrics reveal the heart of a poet and the wisdom of a soul wise beyond her years.



Sarah Harmer - You Were Here

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41HG7ZQM1VL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

Sarah Harmer's first solo effort, You Were Here, doesn't allow a simple categorization of style or reveal a sweeping trend in progress. But it is certain that she is an artist choosing wisely from a great scope of colors. With a pleasing and misleading start, the rollicking opening track asserts its individuality with a Vaudevillian clarinet, keeping one foot in Kinks pop and one in some elusive species of country rock. The next track leaps into the present, utilizing rhythms that sound somewhat synthesized in the mode of David Gray. "The Hideout," having appeared also on a Starbucks coffeehouse compilation disc, has the feel of Neil Young circa Harvest, and becomes a powerful single with its heavy drum line, bold "fifths" chords, and strong chorus with a memorable hook. Moving on, the energy level quickly drops to a spare meditation, featuring vocal, guitar, subtle organ, and the dark psychology of the lyrics. This ebb and flow proves to be the experience throughout You Were Here. Songs may begin with a soft acoustic, then unfold assuredly toward their climax. Various instruments add character now and then, such as a muted trumpet or a harmonica, and the energy level can sway between a lullaby and full pop treatment with a definite destination. The music can also have a heavier edge, driven at times by a malcontent electric guitar. Throughout, the cello is a recurrent staple, as is Harmer's self-harmonized lead vocal. In conjunction with her sonorous, folky vibrato, the melodies are built of simplicity and sweetness, making it an easy album to latch onto. Produced by Harmer herself, along with Peter Prilesnik, You Were Here is keen to a number of musical influences. Her Canadian nationality notwithstanding, there is more than a whisper of Joni Mitchell or Ron Sexsmith in the music. Moments which might feel slow or meandering could likewise feel pensive, meditative, or gather interest from their potential to reveal something more. The lyrics are observational yet detached, and poetic without being arcane -- the album as a whole feels sincere, answering to a variety of moods and whims. It is a work of quality, from the songwriting clear to the production.

Two female singer/songwriter's that everyone should seriously check out.

http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/dc/9c/a3559833e7a0d41d7a181110.L.jpg

After listening to "Are You Experienced", I still needed more Hendrix. As good as the studio albums are...Live Jimi Hendrix is the next level. The stage brought out a level of intensity that had to be "experienced". This album is one of many Live Hendrix albums that are out there. "Band of Gypsys", "Jimi Plays Monterey" and "Radio One" are all excellent, but Winterland is their equal IMO, but is not as prevalent as the others when his performances are talked about. That's too bad...as this a performance worth listening to.

Absolutely. I have all the nights he played Winterland on bootleg and live Hendrix is on another level.

Winterland (atleast on the Ryko label) has been out of print for years as it's Alan Douglas era stuff. Much of what Alan Douglas did with Hendrix's back catalog was/is questionable, but this does stand out as one of the better efforts. Of course all the Alan Douglas stuff has been OOP since Experience Hendrix took over the reigns, which is a good thing, IMO. But, then gems like this slip through the cracks. This cd was among the first cd's I bought back around 1986-87.

This is one of the Rykodisc CDs. I purchased this in the late 80s early 90s. When I was looking for a photo to link, I was suprised to find how much this CD was selling for used ($40±). Mine is a near mint copy...it's not for sale...but it's good to know at least a few things I own are worth more now than when I bought them (unlike my 401K :rolleyes:).

I happen to be a huge Eagles fan and have followed them since I purchased their first album in 1972. I went out and bought this album on the first day it was released...so you sould be able to guess that I like this album. ;)

However, regardless of my opinion of the music itself...the SQ of this recording is stellar. In fact between this album and "Hell Freezes Over" the Eagles have set the standard for the way redbook CDs should be recorded IMO.

I would like to get into doing the transfers but every time I play a record it convinces me that I'd be wasting my time because the vinyl sounds so good.

As simply jaw dropping set. What more can be said. Jeff Beck is a master and add to that Vinny Coulatta on drums and Tal Wilkenfeld (a little fireplug) on bass.

I have the DVD as well and lot's of respected musicians in the audience as well as Eric Clapton coming up on stage to play a set. Jimmy Page was in the audience but due to his broken finger a legendary reunion was not possible. It would have been awesome to have all 3 players on stage.

http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/ciu/5e/f6/331553a09da029db9ed75110.L._AA240_.jpg

If you don't listen to an artist or album for a period of time...it is easy to forget just how good they are. Billy Joel is a great example. Over time he just sort of fades...then you listen to one of his albums and realize...damn...this guy WAS good. "Piano Man" and "Captian Jack" alone are worth picking this album up if you never heard it. I bet you can pick one up for next to nothing in a used CD store. For that matter, pick up any of his albums up through the mid 80s for an entertaining listen.

The fact that he had enough sense to marry Christie Brinkley...that's impressive by itself...but then he blew it and let her get away.

Still a babe at 55...

Green Grass and High Tides by the Outlaws.

This tune is a great workout for your amp and speaker response characteristics. From listening, I've decided that power in the front is best used by my Yamaha HT with its pre outs driving another amp for 2ch duty.

The previously felt gut shaking guitar response does not have the punch the music provides with the HT amp driving the speakers alone in 2ch mode alone. The amp is just driving things loud.

Siouxsie & The Banshee's- Hyaena

http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/drf400/f482/f48239xbvry.jpg

Broadening the eclectically experimental landscape of 1982's Kiss in the Dream House with the occasional string arrangement and a spacious sound mix, Siouxsie and the Banshees' Geffen debut nicely bridges the gap between the band's handful of more-punk-than-pop early releases and their run of new wave, radio-friendly hits from the late '80s and early '90s. And though echoes of classic albums like Kaleidoscope and JuJu are heard in dark and menacing tracks such as "Bring Me the Head of the Preacher Man" and "Blow Your House Down," the emphasis here is on layered arrangements and pop tunes disguised as art-house production numbers ("Dazzle"); tasteful horn and keyboard parts expand the group's guitar-dominated sound and provide Siouxsie with an airy and dreamlike backdrop in which to fully display her considerable vocal talents. Siouxsie further refines things by also including a generous share of fleet and gothic-tinged pop numbers like "Belladonna," "Running Town," and the band's hit cover of "Dear Prudence." Anchored by the signature sound of Steven Severin's guitar-like bass and Budgie's exotically adept percussion work, Hyaena qualifies as one of Siouxsie and the Banshees' finest moments.

Everyone needs a Siouxsie cd in their collection.

Well there were 101 CDs :eek: all together and he really loved the Kinks, Rolling stones and the Byrds. About 20 Kinks, 12 Rolling Stones, and 10 Byrds I think.

There was even a Dire Straights, Brothers in arms disc. I didn't have that one , only their greatest hits or something. This is a DDD disc so I'm about to be blown away over what I thought I had.

I think I paid 35.00 for them.It was early in the morn. and I bought alot more later today.It could've been 25.00 but I think not.. There was one in there that still had 10.00 on the case. Quite a collection of some I didn't have so I'm happy.
