Chris,
Just ordered a Green Pajamas lp to try
|
The Warlocks (pre-Dead). Creative Music. Unknown release, and can’t remember exactly when I bought this. Rear sleeve states ‘MAY 3, 1965
LOS ANGELES’. That was not when this was released, but obviously recorded.

@slaw
Excellent, Steve! Which one did you order?
I look forward to your impressions and hope you enjoy their music as much as I do!
|
Summer of Lust. On Amazon, seems like just a few titles available as lp.
|
@waltersalas
I bet you'd enjoy that Green Pajamas LP as well. I knew nothing about them at all until a friend directed me to their music last summer. I'd call it my find of the year. Now I have five or six of their records and love them all!
Saved to Tidal, will have to check them out. Pretty large catalog

Steve, the Green Pajamas are a shapeshifting band if ever there was one. Their albums each of have their own distinct sonic signature. Summer of Lust leans toward the garage band sound, less polished or produced than some of their others, but I still like it.
Brian, I'd recommend Phantom Like: Northern Gothic, Poison in the Russian Room, or If You Knew What I Dreamed to get started, and if you like any or all of those, start exploring. They've been around for 35 years or so, so it is indeed a pretty extensive catalog.

Brian - I don’t believe i have ever seen that Vintage Dead LP, i have the 1967…
Steve - Aoife announced extensive tour dates today….praying i can make it to one of her W. coast gigs…..
Best to all, happy music Sunday.

Jim, if you read into it, it was ultimately an unauthorized release as a deal to release it fell apart. I cannot remember to details off the top of my head. But, I really didn’t know that when I got it originally, and me and my Dead Head buddies used to play it often. Somewhat like a bootleg. It’s actually pretty good all things considered.

Arrived today,
St. Paul & The Broken Bones "The Alien Coast"
|
Jim, I hope you get to see Aoife at a small intimate venue with great sound!

Thanks for the info. I'll look forward to checking those out later. 👍

Thank you for the good tip on The Motels first album. I bought a M- copy on Discogs and now my Motels collection is complete. I have had the other two albums since each were released. They are both wonderful, musically and sonically. I look forward to this first release being every bit as good.
Thanks again.

Brian, +1 for the Dead binge! I’ve never seen the 1st two you’ve listed on this page, before.
The Fiery Furnaces / Remember
Three LP’s of Live Fiery Furnaces. Sound quality varies but very interesting nonetheless. I wouldn’t recommend this package unless your a fan of the band.

Grateful Dead - American Beauty. WB reissue, unsure of date, originally 1970

It’s been fun actually. I wasn’t aware that Vintage Dead was so unknown. You can find it, and worth picking up for the collection. The Warlocks? Wish I could remember where I picked that up from, but as it turns out, pretty rare today, and actually worth a few coin.
|
@bkeske Enjoying the Dead album art. I was late to the band having got turned on to them from the Freaks and Geeks show.
|
|
Turned on to Dead at Prep school in 1977, it was on in some form in 25% of my dorm rooms at any given minute…. I rebelled feeling it was too mainstream….until i discovered it was on 50% of the time…in the girls dorm….

most people don't care about records like this, so they all cost a dollar. guys my age say it's it's boring, gen xers the same. a boomer might say "it's my grandfather's music". but a clean copy of this one or "mr lucky goes latin" or pink panther is an absolutely mesmerizing stereo experience. this one is my favorite of the bunch - otherworldly organ-driven "mood music", enchanted and blessed. in my book it's up there with "twilight memories" by the three suns for sheer "wow" factor

Difficult to claim worst SQ tonight but was disappointed in a VG+ original pressing of Boston might need to get a reference level copy. Al Dimeola is the SQ(Ludwig) champ tonight.
