Peter gabriel and early Genesis still sounds great but inferior recordings makes it tough to stay hooked on them. Heard a Stanley Clarke concert in the mid 70's and I have enjoying Jazz/fusion ever since. ECM recording are topnotch Terje Rypdal Eberhard weber,Metheny,Kieth jarrett to name a few. Return to Forever(Romantic warrior) Al di Meola(kiss my axe) are real system testers. Phil Collins'fusion band Brand X had about 10 great albums. Most of Andreas Vollenwieder. Camel. Patrick O'hearn's music and recordings can make one melt. Patricia Barber is HOT.
To David99, I'm a Ram is most probably the version done by Roy Buchanan. He is a Blues/Rock artist, and has done this song on at least two releases. One is from 1975, On Polydor #2391152, and the other is a newer (1992) anthology. The song is originally an Al Green song, but his version is more "funk" or "soul" than pure Blues. The only other artist that I know of that did this in a Blues/Rock fashion is Five Hundred Pounds, titled "Big Daddy." My vote, based on your description is the Roy Buchanan version. The 1975 would be available on LP, the 1992 version could be possibly either.
Snook2. Good call on the ECM's in my opinion. I have a entire shelf of ECM artists. In my earlier posing I mentioned Steve Tibbitts (I am a big fan), and most of his work is on ECM. Should also mention the following artists or groups: Oregon, Don Cherry, Carla Bley, Charlie Haden, and Pat Metheney and Keith Jarrett. All of these have excellent work on ECM, most of it can still be found on LP. There is also a web site for ECM Germany, and they will ship to the USA.
Albert,The 1975 Buchanan L.P. is called "LIVE STOCK" F.Y.I. Thanks for the lead!
