Any Yep Roc Records Fans ?
I have always been a fan of quite a few of the artists that record for Yep Roc records. This year I decided to try their completist offering. If you aren’t familiar with it you select one format cd or vinyl and during the course of the year they send you all their new releases. This month I got 3 recordings and last month it was 5. I had looked at doing this more than once but because I am not a fan of all their artists I put it off. I wish I hadn’t procrastinated. Yea some of the music I get doesn’t wow me but one thing they all the releases have in common is they are very well recorded. My favorite release so far is “The Third Mind “which is a Dave Alvin project. If you are into jamming this is an album for you. They do 3 different extended versions of East West by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. The musicianship is phenomenal and each rendition is toe tapping , head bopping music.
