Winwood ...... Steve Winwood.

Great 1971 compilation with examples of his early work with The Spencer Davis Group and Traffic
Muddy Waters and Mickey Katz live at the Fillmore East.Lets rock out dudes!!
Steve Winwood, that's a good one, especially way back with the Spencer Davis Group.  I saw Traffic perform in the earlier days, 1971.  Wonderful concert. 
I also saw Alice Cooper 3 times.  The reason I bring up Alice is because I am about to put one on the platter now;  'Welcome To My Nightmare'  Original copy, perfect condition!
Love me some Alice!

Cringeworthy storytime.

Back in about 1974 or so, maybe 73, there was a music paper in England called NME ( new musical express), every Wednesday.
I was a religious reader!
One week right on the front page was a story that there had been an accident at one of Alice show and the guillotine had a real blade in it and he had been beheaded!

I wailed and gnashed my teeth in anger, shock, horror and told/showed everyone at school who I thought might care.

It was April 1st........

Took a while to live THAT one down!
