nice to see the bottle rockets get some love...
a couple of overlooked lps i've heard of late:
santana, caravanserai--much spacier/more ethereal than their earlier salsa/funk and thus as immediately engaging, but a great headphone listen
quicksilver, shady grove--a very strange, trippy record which is likewise much different than their bo diddley/bluesy stuff. it's dominated by nicky hopkins' piano, rather than by guitar--his instrumental "edward the mad shirt grinder" is a classic deep track, but the real standouts are the slow ballads like "flashing lonesome"
