7/7/24

Lennie Hibbert- Creation
(Great Sunday morning record)


Nick Drake- Bryter Layter
Bobby Charles- S/T

The Paragons w/Roslyn Sweat

(This one never fails to elate me. Pure island bliss.)

 

The Stairs- Mexican R'n'B
(Forgot how many more great songs there are other than "Weed Bus.")

Mott The Hoople- Mott (Kevin Gray Remaster)

(Definitive edition. This record never sounded better.)

Blondie- S/T

(This did not hold up.)

David Bowie- Earthling

v/a- New Orleans, Home Of the Blues: Vol. 2

(This hit the spot. A half dozen from Irma, and a couple each from K-Doe, Benny Spellman and The Showmen, which featured General Norman Johnson who went to the top of the charts as lead singer of the Chairmen Of the Board.)


Egg- S/T
(Probably should have waited to play this another day. Not a good follow-up after some New Orleans heat. And I dig this album.)


James Booker- Classified: Remixed & Expanded
(This is the one. You may not realize it, but you need this. Here's three!)

My least favorite Nick Drake album! Which is tremendous! I just always go 3 then 1 then 2.

And not surprised Linda Thompson "dated" (apparently just hung out with) Nick Drake. I'm sure the folk-rock community was small and incestuous, but still I was kind of amazed/not amazed. She dated Nick Drake and married Richard Thompson!
