    5. Along similar lines I've been listening to High Weirdness: Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies which I think is free on Audible(! -- maybe just for Prime members?). Does an excellent job contextualizing the "Consciousness Movement" and the 70s cultural milieu as a backdrop to the experiences of the McKenna brothers, Robert Anton Wilson, and Philip K. Dick in particular. Great stuff if you don't mind wading through some high-falutin' discussions of hermeneutics, phenomenology, ontology and mnemetics (as a former grad student, I love it!).

  7. The problem with shoegaze/dreampop/whatever is that the genre is so narrow it discourages creativity - everything sounds the same. But this here album from the irritatingly-yclept SWiiMS gets everything right. From the airy vox (reminding me of Choo Choo Train, no bad thing), through the brilliantly chiming guitars, to a drummer who knows his stuff and when to rein it in, 'Into The Blue Night' is something of a genre classic. Download with confidence - millions already have.*

  10. Here’s the eighth album from Supertramp, on a SHM-CD

    Supertramp - ‘Famous Last Words’
    "It's Raining Again” was the hit. This one is more “Pop” than “Prog", while retaining their signature sound.

    https://we.tl/t-z5GqRdVrFD

    ‘Islands’ from the Band was the last of a seven Japanese mini-LP CD set, so here’s:
    The Band ‘Live At The Academy Of Music, 1971’

    During the final week of 1971, The Band played four concerts at New York City's Academy Of Music. Select highlights from the concerts were compiled for The Band's classic 1972 double album, ‘Rock Of Ages’. This 4CD set released in 2013 is all four shows.

    5. FT3 - I think I have to fold because of your Beach Boys "Strange World" call. For me - that starts a run of 4 BRILLIANT and BEAUTIFUL songs to close out the "That's Why God Made the Radio" album. The enduring genius of Brian Wilson's songwriting - even as of that 2012 album - just blows me away. And Bon Jovi apparently has a piece of the songwriting credit on "Summer's Gone" that closes out the album. What's the back story on that I wonder?

      Delete
    6. Then again, Roger McGuinn has a co-writing credit on Brian's immortal classic "Ding Dong" (entire lyric set: Ding! Dong! Whoo! (repeat). So, uh, yeah...

    8. I sued McGuinn and Brian to get my proper due, and royalties, from that classic. They put periods after the words, and I WAS THE ONE that said, NO NOT PERIODS! ITS !!!!! I won and got all of $3.50!!!!

      Delete
    9. To be fair, OBG doesn't quote the entire lyric. Something along the lines of "I got a girl, she treats me so badly .." And it's Ding DANG, dagnabbit!!

      Delete
    10. FT3 - thanks for the link to your prior post on Brian. Your commentary was spot on.
      Regarding "Ding Dang" - "I love a girl and I love her so madly / I treat her so fine but she treats me so badly"

      Delete
    11. Well, that settles it, then. Poet Laureate McGuinn was indeed required for those very fine lines of poetry, to rival any classic English literature has ever put forth...

      Ding DANG, the lyrics witch is dead...

      Delete
    12. BTW One Buck Guy - I enjoyed your write-up on Carl & The Passions "So Tough" on your One Buck Records blog and the curation you put together. I thought it worked very nicely.

      Also - I thought I read somewhere that Brian had another musical obsession (besides "Ding Dang") with "Shortenin' Bread" - where apparently he did a million different musical permutations of it over a number of years. Then he works through the obsession (or sets it aside) and creates some incredible new piece of music. Fascinating how that all works. His 2000 album "Live at The Roxy Theatre" is one of my favorite all time LIVE albums from anyone.

      Do you think Brian has one more album in him? I sure hope so!

      Delete
    17. Thanks, Thames - a labour of love. I don't much mind if he's completely retired. His Me N' My Pianner album will make a swell coda.

      Delete
    18. I agree with you that if the solo piano album is it - it's a lovely way to finish things up.
      I don't have a shred of musical talent - so I am forever fascinated with the musical creative process. In Brian's case, I would think this process is complicated by the mental health challenges he has faced. If he wants to record more music - great - I will always be interested in listening. But if it is not to be - we have a treasure trove of his past music we can enjoy in the meantime.

      Delete
    19. The Hoffmanites were especially Hoffmanesque in the thread devoted to that album: they hated the sound of it and they suspected cheating and skullduggery in the playing - it wasn't really him, because he can't play, and it was overdubbed, and so on.

      Well, it sounds exactly like a real piano in a real room. It sounds like Bri is actually playing a piano in your house. This is fantastic. I like to wander out into the garden while it's playing and imagine Brian back in my house.

      As to "trickery", Brian plays every note, and he said "I made it like I make all my records, overdubbing in the studio", which allows for some harmonies you wouldn't hear from a person playing the piano. Subtle and complex/simple, like the man.

      Because I also have this fab album from the island, and the sound isn't great. A little muffled, a bunch of crackles and some distortion issues, on the vamp section of "Take Me Away", if memory serves.

      Not complaining, because that seems to be the best of what's out there it seems, but the transfer definitely wasn't top notch...

  25. Time to inject some class in this place filled of useless bums. Walter "Wolfman" Washington was an iconic blues/soul guitarist from New Orleans, who's recording career starting in the 1950s. His career reached a high point during the late 80s-early 90s, when he recorded several albums for Rounder records, and appeared as a sideman on several more (including some classics by Johnny Adams). Walter died from a cancer bout earlier this year, but managed to record his epitaph beforehand. He wanted to make an album that featured more of his vocals and was reminiscent of late 50s Johnny Hartman recordings. Listen and I think you'll agree that he succeeded.
    A few years after Katrina, Walter used to hang out at a neighborhood bar around the corner from where I had a place. He would nurse a drink, and play the video poker machines for hours. One night, I pulled up aa chair next to him, and he taught me his "system" on how to beat the machine. A few hours later, I was $50 to the good, and one hell of a lot wiser for having conversed with him about a lot more than just video poker.

    3. He got the nickname Wolfman because for decades he was missing his 2 upper, front, teeth, so it gave him an exaggerated fang look; especially when he would pick his guitar strings with his teeth. Finallygot 2 implants which prompted him to give up the teeth picking.

    7. So... What was the system for beating the video poker machines? Inquiring minds want to know!

      Delete
    8. His system was mostly intuitive. He had figured out algorhythms even before that term became a buzz word. As I recall, he was able to figure it out by analogyzing it to standard chord progressions. For a guy who didn't finish high school, he was very intelligent.

      Delete
    9. Most of his other recordings are good, but not anything you haven't heard from others. But, he took a very different approach starting with his penultimate recording. That one was supposed to be released on the Newvelle Records label, but they got crosswise with each other (which is odd, because Walter never got angry as far as anyone who knew him could recall) and he ultimately did a self release. This last one was issued through Tipitina's Records; same people that own the music club in NO started a label that primarily issues sound board recordings from concerts they hosted. This is their second studio release. Tipitina's is owned by the members of the jazz/funk band, Galactic. Which is a story unto itself - they were owed tons of $ by the former owner of the club who stiffed them on what they were owed for a 4 night Halloween gig several years ago. They traded the debt for the club, and within less than 6 mos, the club was mothballed due to the Coronavirus. That is what led to the record label being formed - a way to generate needed revenue. The former owner died of a self infliced gunshot. Yeah, New Orleans......

    Yes, I know it's a good album, and it's probably Zappa's Dark Side, in that it opened up his global success tour/guitar star era, and lordy it dragged him out of the Turtles Of Invention mess, but I cannot love this album.

  29. So, this afternoon, I went for a followup visit to the oral surgeon. The good news is, he removed the stitches from where he drilled through the roof of my mouth to remove the median palatine cyst. More good news, I can eat solid (soft for now) foods again!

    Anyway, while I was in an Uber cab on my way home, the driver decided to play some music. All of a sudden, there was the Humble Pie song “Hot 'n' Nasty” blasting at two-hundred decibels. The driver quickly turned down the volume, apologized, and said, “If you don’t this, I’ll change it.” I told him, “No, I like Humble Pie”, which surprised him. While listening to Smokin’ on the way home, I thought Th' Four Or Five Freeloading Guys might this.

    So here's Humble Pies’ Smokin’ from 1972. This is the 2010 Analogue Productions SACD/Hybrid reissue, and it’s well, smokin’!

  30. R.L. Boyce, a Mississippi hill country blues performer that one of the Dickinson's once called "the toastmaster general of hill country blues," died last week. He was 68. I first encountered R.L. at the Oxford Blues Festival in (I think) 2014. He was just a half step short of sloppy drunk & created on-the-spot an extended blues-rap extolling the virtues of an equally inebriated Yankee youth of maybe 22 who had provided the liquid fuel for R.L.'s rocket. I was sold, obviously. He was also a mainstay at the annual North Mississippi Hill Country Picnic in scenic Waterford MS. So for your amusement, here's R.L.'s last CD (which one of his relatives was peddling tent-to-tent at the picnic a few years ago). My copy is actually a CD-R; R.L. was pirating himself. It's called "Ain't Gonna Play Too Long," and most sane people will probably agree that the title is cause for Thanksgiving. Happy turkey day.

  31. Kevin Gilbert was a musical artist who died by his own hand in 1996, the sad result of pioneering the auto-erotic asphyxiation fad (of which INXS frontman Michael Hutchence was a latecomer). Perhaps I will use this story to scare my grandson when he is a teenager, reminding him not to masturbate himself to death. By then he will know nothing of "rock", instead listening to DJ Chad GPT or some such.

  42. George Harrison and Friends - ‘The Concert for Bangladesh’

    The Concert for Bangladesh was a pioneering charity event in aid of the homeless Bengali refugees of the Bangladesh Liberation War, and set the model for future multi-artist rock benefits.

    The other day, I uploaded ‘The Last Waltz’, which has a lot in common with the ‘The Concert for Bangladesh’. Both were filmed for theatrical release, have an all-star lineup, blintzes (with sour cream) were served, as were piles of Bolivian marching powder, and Bob Dylan upstages everyone involved.

    Along with George Harrison are, Ravi Shankar, Bob Dylan, Leon Russell, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, Eric Clapton, Ali Akbar Khan, Alla Rakha, Kamala Chakravarty, Jesse Ed Davis, Klaus Voormann, Jim Keltner, Pete Ham, Tom Evans, Joey Molland, Mike Gibbins, Don Preston, Carl Radle, Jim Horn, Chuck Findley, Jackie Kelso, Allan Beutler, Lou McCreary, Ollie Mitchell, Claudia Lennear, Joe Greene, Jeanie Greene, Marlin Greene, Dolores Hall, and Don Nix.

      James Carter - ‘Chasin' the Gypsy’

      This is saxophonist James Carter’s homage to Django Reinhardt. As a teenager in Detroit, Michigan, late at night, James first heard Django and Stéphane, on French language radio stations out of Canada. Upon, release, this album came as a surprise, as James is known mainly as a Post-Bop and sometimes Avant-Garde Jazz artist. What I like about this recording is that it is not a guitar album, with a guitarist trying to imitate Django. That said, guitarists Jay Berliner and Romero Lubambo are sublime. This album has excellent audio, and on the tracks James plays Bass saxophone, it will give your speakers a workout.

    ‘Blood On The Tracks’ (1981CBS Mastersound half-speed mastered version)

    This is a vinyl rip of the half-speed master release, which is different to all the other releases of this album. Bob and Phil Ramone decided to speed up the original album by two percent in the mastering, so this version has slightly longer track times. Those of you freeloaders with “an ear” will notice the vocals are more nuanced, the acoustic guitar sounds fuller, the bass is plump and fuller and whole ambience is spacier
