A Portrait of Patsy Cline, Decca 4508. Fresh Aire, Mannheim Steamroller American Gramaphone AG-355. Foghat debut lp, Foghat Bearsville 2077. Take it Home, B.B. King MCA-3151.

The Foghat lp brought back fond memories of when the lp was released in the early 70's. The band played a free concert at a park in Wisconsin. The weather was great, the sweet smell of cannabis floating through the air, and a buddy brought some Corrs back from Colorado, which wasn't shipped east of the Mississippi at that time.

The B.B. King lp sounds marvelous, excellent recording.
Bruce Springsteen- The Rising
I can never get enough of this LP. Not a bad track on it. Bruces' best IMHO. Inspired by 9-11.

That last one I was inspired to pull because it dawned on me, when listening to the Szabo LP, that Carlos Santana lifted his famous coda solo on their cover of Peter Green's "Black Magic Woman" nearly wholesale from Szabo's original composition "Gypsy Queen", something I'd never twigged before (Green however lifts Otis Rush instead in his own version).
