Ted’s debut album. From the back cover: “Ted’s no-nonsense approach to the electric guitar—i.e. one guitar, eight Fender speaker cabinets and no toys in between to mess up the signal”… No kidding around here. “Queen Of The Forest”, nice finale.
Arrived today! Thanks USPS. Bought this 2020 LP after hearing her sing several songs off of this album at her live show in Cincinnati last Saturday Night.

@bslon i agree wholeheartedly on "jack johnson"--it's his best work (tho i'm sometimes partial to bitches brew) and much more engaging than "kind of blue", which sounds oddly tame after all these years
@bdp24what i like about rusty young's pedal steel is that it doesn''t sound a pedal steel, especially live--at various times it sounds closer to a hammond organ or almost like heavy metal
my pick for the day: greg sage, straight ahead--ex-wipers doing a freakyfolk thing, with simple, impressionistic tunes that stay oddly embedded in your brain
@loomisjohnson: I’ll have to look for the Poco Live album. Deliverin’ was the last album of theirs I heard. By the way, in the early-70’s I saw them at The Fillmore (or was it Winterland?), and believe it or not the loudest guitar I’ve ever heard live was recently-deceased Rusty Young’s pedal steel. When he slid up to some really high notes, it felt like an ice pick was being jabbed into my ears. The second loudest was Ray Davies’ Telecaster, plugged into a Hi-Watt stack.
Peter Sprague-Na Pali Coast(CJ 277) Side 2 SQ Audiophile
Van Morrison-It's Too Late To Stop Now(Tri-Fold WB Shield no barcode) Side 4*
Plas Johnson-Positively(CJ 24) Side 2 SQ Audiophile
Neil Young-Silver & Gold Side 2
Side 4* record indicates record 2 side 2. Plas Johnson takes the SQ crown. Nothing had below average SQ even the 2016 Crowbar was decent. J. Giels was very close to Audiophile SQ status.
