Whats playing on your system today?
Slaw - pleased you are checking out Leslie West. I am not familiar with that one...my bet is the music will be good but I'm anxious the sound quality will be bad and turn you off. I'm going to see if I can find it on Spotify (or YouTube). Get a feel for what that ones about. By the way - I definitely pay attention to your music posts. Appreciate them. |
Found it, Slaw. A 2015 release...sonics seem very good. Haven’t heard enough of it to know what I think of the music yet (does he still have the fire?). Do like his cover of You Are My Sunshine (several covers on this one). From Track 6 (A Stern Warning) it seems like he still has decent chops. His voice seems to have held up pretty well which kind of surprised me. Don't know how much auto-tune they had to use. As far as BAD sound quality, it’s some of the post-Mountain (archival?) releases of so-called Mountain recordings...from concerts etc. that are just plain terrible sound-wise. There oughta be a law (or a good lawsuit)! to prevent that kind of stuff. |
I like reading record reviews while listening. Here's one on Leslie and this Soundcheck release. Love the fact that the closing track has Jack on vocals (but geez, couldn't they find a good sound guy to capture ANY of their live recordings???) http://www.bluesblastmagazine.com/leslie-west-soundcheck-album-review/ |
