John Cale & Terry Riley- Church Of Anthrax (1971)- ***1/2
Nara Leao- Dez Anos Depois (1971)- ***

Sky High & The Mau Mau- African Vengeance (1990)- ***1/2

(I couldn't resist! Aside from the name of the band, the musicians include Earl "Chinna" Smith, Errol Brown, "Family Man" Barrett and "Horsemouth" Wallace. Not bad. A big time Black Uhuru vibe. I've heard worse. Worth a second spin.)



James Taylor- Classic Songs: Slightly Tweaked (1987/2026)- ****

The Searchers- Personal Playlist (2026)- ****
(Terribly underrated Brit Invasion band! Solid 30 minute mix is here, with a dozen of my faves.)

Lesley Gore- My Town, My Guy & Me (1965)- ****
(One of the rare 60's pop records that has no filler. Just perfect from top to tail.)


Handsome Jack- Barnburners! (2026)- ****

Pete Townshend/Ronnie Lane- Rough Mix (1977)-****1/2
Pete Townshend- Empty Glass (1980)- ****

Squeeze- Play (1991)- ****
(I play this more than any other Squeeze record and each time I play it, I am convinced it's their best.)

Who woulda thunk it? Leslie Gore. And if you’re ok with sixties girl sounds ( I am) it’s not bad at all. You crazy, Sal. Cleveland Jeff
