@big_greg - I've always liked Nick Lowe and Nick Lowe and His Cowboy Outfit - "The Rose of England" is still in my semi-regular rotation. Was luck to see Nick Lowe last year doing a solo show. One guy, about 30 songs in rapid-fire succession. It was awesome....
|
@bdp24 - Thanks for the post about Marty Stuart and Nick Lowe (and their associates). Although they are different genres, a common thread runs through them. Good music is good music. And so much the better when the musicians are top rate.
Curious: Have you listened to Springsteen's - "Western Stars"? It's a different kind of Springsteen record. A good friend, who is a life long Springsteen fan, says it may be his favorite Springsteen record ever.
|
|
@slaw - I love "Western Stars". I'm a Springsteen fan and I love good Western music. If you like classic Country Western Songs, like "Gentle on my Mind", "Wichita Lineman" and "Goodtime Charlie's Got the Blues", you'll love it. |

|
Jefferson Airplane - "Surrealistic Pillow"
|
@uberwaltz - "Surrealistic Pillow is a classic psychedelic rock. Not my favorite genre, but it's a pretty good album. Of Course, "White Rabbit" and "Somebody to Love" were huge hits that have stood the test of time. The remainder of the album is solid. Give it a listen when you get a chance. Let me know what you think. |

Just playing "Monolith" for the first time. So far, so good.......
|
Just back from my LRS. Picked the following, all used. The most expensive one was $4.99 and they are all very clean.
Paul McCartney and Wings - "Red Rose Speedway" Kansas - "Monolith" Moody Blues - "In Search of the Lost Chord" Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lane - "Rough Mix"
Spinning "Red Rose Speedway" right now and will listen to the others throughout the weekend.
|
Neil Young with Crazy Horse - "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere" |
@uberwaltz @slaw - My thoughts on "Rough Mix". Mine is the original US Release - MCA 2295. The sound quality is pretty good, and as a whole I like it quite a bit. However, it does sound a bit dis-jointed. It's like they took some cuts from a Pete Townshend record and some cuts from a Ronnie Lane album and mixed them up on a combo album. Then, at the end, the last cut - "Till the Rivers all Run Dry", doesn't sound like either Pete Townshend, or Ronnie Lane. Regardless, I like it. There are several winners in the mix.
|
Moody Blues - "In Search of the Lost Chord" - Very Nice!
|
|
The Midnight Oil record is fantastic. Can't believe I've never heard the whole album before.
|
Jimmy Smith - "Plain Talk" |
@spiritofradio - Thanks. I believe it is clipping of the vocal and guitar that I'm hearing now that I go back and listen. Thanks for confirming this...
|
Glen Hansard - "Drive All Night" - 45 RPM LP - Thanks Slaw!
|
Bruce Springsteen - "Western Stars" |
Shovels and Rope - "Little Seeds" |
@slaw - Just got home from a week on the road for a business trip to Milwaukee. Fortunately, got to see The Alarm last night in Milwaukee before I headed out of town. Fantastic show.

@uberwaltz -"I Robot" is such a great album. I hope your new investment delivers an improvement in SQ. My copy is an original, purchased by me at the time of initial release. It's not perfect, but it did survive college pretty well intact. |
Happy 4000th post to me!
Just put on Jenny Lewis - "Acid Tongue"
|
Lee Moses - "Time and Place" - Real soul and R&B......
