There has to be a common thread (guitar) involved with these four, just don’t ask what it is… - Doc Powell – The Doctor (VTL label, OOP)
- Nils Lofgren – Acoustic Live (Boy, do I wish I was at this one.)
- David Lindley and El Rayo-X - Win This Record (hard-to-find import)
- Luiz Bonfa – Softly… (supremely underrated artist, mono recording on Epic)

@spiritofradio, many thanks for your kind words a couple of
pages back. I definitely have some catching up to do…
For me; this is a “desert island” pick:
Bobby King / Terry Evans
“Live and Let Live”
1988 Rounder Records
Produced by Ry Cooder
It’s hard to imagine this was pressed during the first
decade of “perfect sound forever.”
|
- Brooks Williams - Little Lion
- Pink Floyd - Meddle
- Paul Simon - You’re The One (pressed in the U.K., very well recorded.)

Ry Cooder - Paris, Texas - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

Slaw, 100% on the Steve Phillips "Steel-Rail Blues" recommendation.
|
@spiritofradio Thank you for the kind welcome. I'm actually in the Southeast, but have been a customer of Kurt's for years. You are indeed right about having such a great shop in your "backyard." The amplifier and speakers in my system were purchased from Kurt.
