SURPRISE This is a pretty dang good LP

I just cleaned up an old copy of Little Feat - "The Last Record Album. I don't have it in front of me, so I can't offer label info. I was amazed at the recording quality given it's early 70's vintage. Some great Lowell George songs - Long Distance Love for one. Little Feat
was/is an extremely tight band with excellent musicianship.

Prior to selling off my analog rig :-( I cleaned up a few old lp's I'd been listening to on CD and was amazed at how good the recordings were. The quality of the music didn't surprise me, they are amongst my favorite of all time. Don't have them in front of me so can't say labels. They are; Roxy Music "Stranded" and "For Your Pleasure" and Audience "House on the Hill".

4yanx, if you like "The World is a Ghetto" then I'm sure you'll like WAR's "Why Can't We Be Friends" (United Artists LA-441-G). It's always been one of my personal favorites -- a lot of great songs, well-recorded. I particularly like the instrumental, "Smile Happy". :)

Thanks for the tip on "W is a G" I'll have to see if I can find a copy.

Frank, you're entirely welcome and thanks to you, and others, for the return tips! This is how I am hoping this thread will continue. The "World is a Ghetto", kind of a funk/jazz/soul thing, is extremely well produced (deep, layered, and balanced) with War using a wide variety of instrumentation. Some of the tracks will really show how tight is your bass! I recall buying it new and mostly listening to the title track and "Cisco Kid", other tracks are also great, as I have found.

I was lucky to have scored twice last night in the "great music-great sonics" game, having also cleaned what is perhaps a polar opposite to the War LP:

Norman Blake: "Fields of November"; Flying Fish Records FF-004.

Have had this since 1975 and it just kinda got forgotten in a box. Amazing how much good music is buried in the grooves of so many similarly buried LP's.
