Already in the racks:
Dave Edmunds: Swan Songs: The Singles 1976-1981.
For you younger fellas, Dave Edmunds emerged as a solo artist in 1970 (after having been a member of the UK trio Love Sculpture). He was on the short list of guitarists considered as the replacement for Brian Jones in The Stones, but thankfully they went with Mick Taylor instead. Dave recorded an old Blues song ("I Hear You Knocking", written by Dave Bartholomew and recorded by Smiley Lewis, Fats Domino, many others) that year, which miraculously became a Top 30 hit single (not being a radio listener at the time, I never heard it). He transformed the song into an absolute Rock 'n' Roll scorcher, with a smokin' hot guitar solo.
Robert Plant was a Dave Edmunds fan, and when Led Zeppelin started their record label Swan Song, Dave was Robert's first signing. Dave's 1977 Swan Song debut album Get It was my introduction to Dave, and he absolutely blew my mind! This 2-LP set is comprised of all Dave's Swan Song singles, and though I have all Dave's recorded material, this release is too juicy to resist. It will make for great driving music, pedal-to-the-metal baby!
