Thanks Pauly:

Good to be among friends.

I've been searching the used CD shops on a 70's kick. I bumped into two Eric Burdon gems. Hard to find & pricey when you do.

The best version of "As the years go Passing By" I've heard, and I have a dozen or so covers.

In perfect symetry, it led into this wonderfull collection

These guys Rock!

Another classic, including Anyway, Bye, Bye.

Did you know that one song took the entire side of an LP then?


Don't Let It Pass By/Nobody's Fool/El Tonto de Nadie, Regresa does. :banana-dance: :banana-rock: :banana-dance: :banana-rock:

Interesting Factoid:

The tune Coloured Rain on Love Is, was written by Traffic. The sweet four minute guitar solo was by Andy Summers, long before co-founding The Police.

It's also found here, along with St' James Infirmary, another blues song covered by many.

No-L, is that the David Clayton Thomas from BS&T? If so, how do you like that CD?

 

[No-L]

Botch,
Yes! Although I never realized it until you mentioned it. I love this album. I love HIS music. I've been listening to him for many years.
I highly recommend it!

"Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a helicopter crash on August 27, 1990, just as the first single from this CD, the beautiful Motown/soul-inspired workout "Tick Tock," was about to climb the charts and make the blues-rock hero an international superstar. Thankfully, he was able to make this delightful and laid-back album with his brother. For Jimmie and Stevie Ray, it was a kind of spiritual reunion. Jimmie had followed Stevie down the path to sobriety. These New York City sessions were a spirited celebration intended to mark the beginning of their musical partnership. While some tunes sound like the result of mere jamming, "Telephone Song" is one of Stevie's best numbers: an elegant blues shout with screaming guitar breaks. And Jimmie's B-3 organ-like textures on steel guitar astound." ~ Ted Drozdowski

Don't care too much for some of these songs, but...
I absolutely love the hard driving sound of "Appetite For Destruction"! It's damn near perfection.

editorial review ~
"2012 album from the Blues multi-instrumentalist. Otis Taylor isn't defined by any single category. A musical alchemist and a true innovator, Taylor has never been afraid to experiment beyond the Blues tradition. He's a master craftsman who has created his own signature "trance blues" style by melding haunting guitar and banjo work, syncopated rhythms and a combination of gruff vocals, shouts and yells with raw passion. Otis Taylor's Contraband offers 14 compelling originals."
