Talk Talk - Laughing Stock |
Pat Metheny Group - "American Garage"
|
Jimbo Mathus and the Tri-State Coalition - "Dark Night of the Soul" |
The new Beck record sounds amazing and it is still growing on me. It’s simply one big party symphony that’s full of surprises and refers to his musical influences, you will hear them. Total 180 in sentiment and energy level from the sublime Morning Phase. Beck keeps on reinventing himself, a good thing. If you like bass this is a great piece.

I just saw that Dylan's "Love And Theft" is coming out on LP on December 8th, a double disc on Columbia. Great album imo. How are current Columbia pressings (I've never bought one)? |
Bob Dylan - "Planet Waves"
|
Rare Earth - "Live"
Man, I wish I could go back in time and see those shows. Some tasty stuff...... |
LOVE Planet Waves, reubent! The recording is unusual for the time, rather under-produced, with little "sweetening" and/or electronic processing, including reverb. And The Band are very sympathetic to Dylan's music, playing it the way it should be played. Wait a great team they made! |
Tears for Fears - "The Hurting" - I've loved it since I first heard it in 1983......

|
Great album reubent, along with Rubber Soul, their two best imo. |
King Crimson "Lizard"
EG Records US pressing, c. 1983. |
Tonight was more King Crimson:
"In The Wake of Poseidon" and "Starless and Bible Black"
Both Atlantic/Warner Japanese pressings, c. 1983
Tasty!

Wow boxer12, I’m surprised to hear "Love And Theft" was issued on LP by Columbia back when it was a new release in 2001. I don’t remember my Sony Distribution (they had Columbia Records) salesperson (I would say salesman, he it was a she ;-) mentioning the album was available on LP when she took my pre-release order at Tower Records. But Tower had long since gotten rid of their LP racks, and besides, the majors sold LP’s to stores as a one-way buy---no LP returns by stores allowed, even if defective. Once a store bought an LP, they owned it. Tower buyers were prohibited by Sacramento from ordering LP’s for their store. |

Chip Taylor - "This Side of the Big River"

Oh man, reubent, Marty is SO great, and His Fabulous Superlatives one of the very best bands in the world. I first saw and heard guitarist Kenny Vaughan (who has a solo album) live with Lucinda Williams, and he's a fantastic player. Drummer Harry Stinson is one of the best working right now, and a real good harmony singer as well. |
@bdp24 - Yep, great band and front man. They are playing in Cincinnati on March 30 at the beautiful 400 seat Memorial Hall. Unfortunately that's my family Colorado ski trip week and I'm going to miss the show :~( |
@bdp24 - Speaking of Lucinda, and drummers, have you seen Lucinda with her current backing band - Buick 6? The drummer Butch Norton is AWESOME! I've seen them 3-4 times in the last couple of years and Norton, and Buick 6, really bring it. Love their solo set and their work backing Lucinda. |
No reubent, I'll look Butch (and Buick 6) up. I saw her last night (Monday) on Seth Meyer's show, singing with Steve Earle. I don't know if that was her band or his, but they were real good, including the drummer, whom I loved. Lucinda didn't look or sound so hot, I'm afraid. It's a tricky thing, finding the right key for a male/female duet. It's gotta be low enough for the male's range, but high enough for her's. Last night the song's key was a little too low for her voice, I believe. And my gaud she looked bad! Like a hardcore alcoholic, sitting down at the end of the bar, drinking alone. She's put on a buncha weight, her face was puffy, and she had on waaaay yonder too much eye makeup. I still love her, though! |
