What is your "holy grail song" that you cannot find?
For me, that song is a live version of "Chest Fever" by Humble Pie. My guess is that it's a vinyl bootleg that is virtually impossible to find. So, if anyone knows anything about this recording, please provide some details. In the meantime, maybe one of us knows something about a rare song and/or recording that some of you are looking for.
@thecarpathian Thanks for the suggestion of the 45's on Ebay. @mitchagain And thank you too, for the suggestion on the CD compilation. I am going to look into both options. Appreciate it! For some reason, I know that song by heart within my head! That song had lots of energy and power when it came out. Music really burns an imprint in our memory that never goes away!!! |
I have a bootleg of Little Feat Live Oct. 31, 1975 at the Orpheum Theater Boston on cassette, burned to CD, but it's nowhere near the original broadcast quality heard on the day/date on WBCN. My rommate recorded it on a Sony 10" RtR at 7.5 ips off a Pioneer TX9500 from our hilltop house roof antenna in Burlington, MA. The SQ was fantastic. Unfortunately, the machine and tape were lost in a home burglary...

Not necessarily holy grail material but wish I could find a new cd of Billy Thorpe/Children of the Sun. The only new thing avail is the "revisited" version which is a lesser mix IMO and missing a great tune that I believe charted back then. Chains of your Love. Again not all that special but thought some here might like to hear mention of it. |
@bbarten Original Capricorn releases on CD from the late 70's tend to be hard to find. However, there's a label in the UK called BGO Records ("Beat Goes On") that have released remastered CD versions of a few albums by former Capricorn artists like: The Dixie Dregs and Sea Level. It is easy to get on their email list; and, it's also easy to send them an email with suggested releases. I'm kind of surprised about "Children of the Sun" never getting remastered and re-released. |
