Great Emitt Rhodes album, @bslon! Emitt wrote, played, and sang every note on his debut, a perfect album.
I was in the band hand-picked to back Emitt when in 1997 he played his first live show in a quarter century. We performed only six songs, including "Live Till You Die" off the debut. I suggested "Fresh As A Daisy" (a glorious Pop masterpiece of a song, easily the equal of anything by Lennon & McCartney, approaching Brian Wilson quality), but Emitt felt it didn't fit the set.

Edwin Starr-Hell Up In Harlem Side 1
Art Farmer-To Duke With Love Side 2 SQ*
Molly Hatchet-Double Trouble Live Side 4
Sammy Davis JR.-Now Side 1 SQ*
Greta Van Fleet-Anthem Of The Peaceful Army Side 2
Flip Phillips/Scott Hamilton-A Sound Investment(CJ-334) Side 2 SQ Audiophile
An abbreviated vinyl night? Always play 8 sides but due to answering a phone call... Everything sounded above average with the exception of Edwin Starr. Might be an original pressing which is disappointing since the content is top level R&B. SQ* Art and Sammy just missed Audiophile status maybe on another night?

@tomic601 Jim, it's not that it doesn't have merit in its own right, it's just that when I put on the CSNY live album, I realized how much better it sounded compared to the darker BAS album. I do have a thing about smooth verses detailed and these albums seem to epitomize that.

@bslon cool on Dark Side, my music producer buddy is doing the album live in entirety, sold out, laser light show included, wishing i could make it…..
|
Brian, maybe i just have a crush on her and am hearing differences, @whart what do you think about the sonics on Black Acid Soul…
plenty of detail on the Treo, massive deep soundstage, piano is twenty feet back and retains drive, extension, shimmer….
or is it as Mick sang.
” just my imagination, running away with me “….. ha.

Fantastic album. Wonderful you-are-there live analog recording.
...
Jim, this album ^ is why Ladybird is tentative. It’s nice but it doesn’t have greatness for the following reasons: covers not originals. Lacks open, detailed sound. Methodological musicianship.
