Top five live Rock And Roll Albums
@initforthemusic , Ha, yup, I had heard that before! Diamond seemed SO out of place in that group of artists, pure showbiz schmaltz. I view him being there as Robbie doing not Neil, but himself a favour, bringing attention to Diamond in hopes the album he was producing for him at that time would therefore sell more copies. I think it sank without a trace. Behind the scenes, the rehearsals for the show proved to be running long, so Robbie asked Levon to tell Muddy he was being cut from the lineup. Levon refused, telling Robbie if Muddy didn't perform, neither did he. My man! |
COLOSSEUM LIVE 2LP on Tiger Bay label, with "I Can´t Live Without You" by original guitarist James Litherland, first time on vinyl. Can you dig that man ! https://www.discogs.com/Colosseum-Live/release/13483556 A stunning reissue released this Spring, faithful to original sound and cover. With this one you can fool your friends listening to original UK Bronze. The best vinyl reissue of anything I´ve heard this far. Fabulous release does honor to these fine English musicians and this incredibly stylish music mix of rock, blues, jazz and classical influences/melody. This is heavy music. COLOSSEUM took the blues to a higher level and boldly went where no man had gone before. It was 1971, at the pinnacle of Rock´s evolution when everything came together in Prog Rock. This live double changed it all. Soon followed Deep Purple´s Made in Japan 1972, Uriah Heep Live January 1973, ELP`s triple live album 1974 ... RIP Jon and Dick, you are the greatest. Thanks for your Music. |
