JohnJ Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 @billybob That ones a new Mayall to me, will have to look into him more than just the LP I've got and forgotten! That London pressing and a couple more I've got did sound very good, even compared with records done in the 80s and after. So my excuse being to pick up a couple CDs every month? Starting with last week, got a bunch for $6, $8 and one for $12. Then yesterday started looking for St Paul & Broken Bones, ended up thinking it was for my birthday next month Then I whetted it down to under a hundred. This one was $20 new, numbered, sealed and right down my alley as music goes. I'll start with my favorite from Crimson's first LP: 3 2 Quote

JohnJ Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Still listening, and doin' laundry They've (ARS) got so many records: RIP to so many of the first https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Atlanta_Rhythm_Section_members#1971–1983 Their singer Ronnie was one of the best around for years, listen to the song after the fun "Redneck" it's not over engineered. The big bass player Paul? Who didn't like that guy! * Here: I'll spell it out just for you my friend Billy that Ronnie Hammond had a undeniable beautiful voice: # Just love this band!

JohnJ Posted May 23, 2023 Posted May 23, 2023 (edited) So laundry's in the dryer I can forget it about it until tommorow. Got a question, is the slow original better or does the faster Mick version express the willingness to accept that darn pain for the overwhelming ecstasy better? First: D*mn Good^^ Second: with Lenny Kravitz!! Faster & almost with his country swagger he uses sometimes.. like the next tune! * Ilike both of `em Edited May 23, 2023 by JohnJ * 1 3 Quote
Dave1291 Posted May 23, 2023 Posted May 23, 2023 Blah! 😂 Gone fishin! George, just for you since you're keeping the worms warm. 😂 Yea, 66-67 I had a contract for the Jackson Five ready to sign for a show here in Duckburg. $3k. The old high school auditorium held about 700 and had a balcony. Michael was 6-7 then and they were just starting to catch fire. Duckburg would still be talkin about it. Hendrix tickets were 5-6 bucks back then and The Five were just starting? I kept doing the math thinking about the headline in the Duckburg Gazette... "Local kid brings in the Jackson Five and loses $2k" 😂 Hey George. Spit me out another worm I lost mine... 😂 3 2 Quote
Jeff Matthews Posted May 23, 2023 Posted May 23, 2023 The Tommy Bolin post was cool! Never heard any Tommy Bolin before. The only knowledge I had of him was my playlist includes a live Deep Purple Tune, "Wild Dogs," and they introduce Tommy Bolin. 3 1 Quote
