…His passionate vocals and guitar work (particularly his signature slide guitar lick for “Dust My Broom”) virtually provided the blueprint for the modern blues rock movement on both sides of the Atlantic. James’s gripping style is clearly echoed in the sounds of the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds, the Allman Brothers, and Eric Clapton, to name a mere handful. For anyone not familiar with the source material, James’s work can be revelatory. This excellent set collects his most memorable recordings, including “I Can’t Hold Out, “Done Somebody Wrong,” “Shake Your Moneymaker,” and, of course, “Dust My Broom.” As can be heard, James didn’t just suggest the sound of rock, he rocked out himself. - By Steve Futterman.

Really a GREAT record!
By the way:
I'm looking for a Rolling Stones bootleg
"Hamngbird Disaster" aka "Glimmer Twins Privare Party".
Can somebody help, please?
A little ‘salve’ for those of you out ‘on the razor’s edge’. Sit a little while. May the fourth be with you.

FAIRPORT CONVENTION - What We Did On Our Holidays
Island Records (1969)
Recorded June–October 1968 at Kingsway and Olympic Studio No. 1
http://www55.zippyshare.com/v/ACQmkJbO/file.html
Sandy Denny's haunting, ethereal vocals gave Fairport a big boost on her debut with the group. A more folk-based album than their initial effort, What We Did on Our Holidays is divided between original material and a few well-chosen covers. This contains several of their greatest moments: Denny's "Fotheringay," Richard Thompson's "Meet on the Ledge," the obscure Joni Mitchell composition "Eastern Rain," the traditional "She Moves Through the Fair," and their version of Bob Dylan's "I'll Keep It with Mine." And more than simply being a collection of good songs (with one or two pedestrian ones), it allowed Fairport to achieve its greatest internal balance, and indeed one of the finest balances of any major folk-rock group. The strong original material, covers of little-known songs by major contemporary songwriters such as Dylan and Mitchell, and updates of traditional material were reminiscent of the blend achieved by the Byrds on their early albums, with Fairport Convention giving a British slant to the idiom. The slant would become much more British by the end of the '60s, though, both gaining and losing something in the process. Confusingly, What We Did on Our Holidays was titled Fairport Convention in its initial U.S. release, with a different cover from the U.K. edition, although Fairport's very first album from 1968 had used the title Fairport Convention as well. -- Richie Unterberger (Allmusic)
While it is impossible to pick a favorite Fairport Convention album for me, if I had a gun held to my head "What We Did On Our Holidays" is the one I might choose. (As the old Jack Benny joke goes, a robber says to Benny, "Your money or your life." Benny hesitates and the robber tells him to get on with it to which Benny replies, "I'm thinking!") Whenever I hear this album I'm transported to an Idyllic love, peace, and marijuana time of my life. In the late 60s, early 70s I considered myself a hippie and lived a lifestyle without furniture in the living room, but cushions and pillows. Beads hanging from door frames instead of doors, bare feet and incense, and brick and board shelving. Of course the life in my memory in no way resembled the life as it really was. Drugs took care of that.
Still, this record invokes that mood in me and it could perhaps be my favorite "hippie" album.
Peace, brothers and sisters. Love is all around you. -- JohnnyDiego

Hi RYP,
Loving The Surfin' Gorillas!
But can anyone help with these???
"JAY-GEE ROCK & ROLL PARTY" Vols. 3 & 4 released on the LESLEY RECORDS Label.
I bought the albums but they're a distorted batch.
Thanx in advance:-)
Hello All,
I was looking for Parthenon Huxley music. Anyone out there a popster?
Hello everyone I am looking for cd 1 from DINAH WASHINGTON "ORIGINAL QUEEN OF SOUL" thanks for your support
Roger
@JohnnyDiego: Hi! Just a question: Haven't ever heard of Sandy Denny et al., and all their musical incarnation --a big thx! for mending that!--, but --off the record-- what do you think about The Pentangle? I mean, in comparison with Fairport and Fotheringay. And Sandy Denny versus Jacqui McShee. Just curious, please don't feel pressed to answer, it's just that you seem to know a lot. Cheers Daniel, from Spain...
@RYP: THANKS for the original album of Elmore!!! :)
Boah Ey, Elmore James is' ja so verdammt gut, hatte ich viel zu lange nicht mehr auf meiner Speisekarte, vielen Dank daß Du ihn hier für alle Gourmets der audiophilen Küche so vorzüglich angerichtet hast. Ich freue mich auf jede weitere Scheibe die Du noch in petto hast.
Thanks for the Elmore James.
Montymusic & Aging Child Thanks for shares! I'm hooked on the Oddments & Jazz that you have shared! I have noticed that the files shared for July 2 come up that site is down however the links for July 1 & 3 work fine? Has anyone else ask about this Thanks!
Sadly, I believe these recordings will not be, have not been, of much interest to the average fan of any of Elmore's many imitators, or musical godchildren.
Does anyone have a share of the self-titled album by Vidunder? - mucho gracias!
Thanks Johnny for the Fairport Conventio,more is always welcome!!!!!
Gra from Worcester says.....
More Fairport Convention PLEASE..Looking for 'Unhalfbricking' especially.

hey Pubbi,
wie Du ja erkennen kannst, sind die Garage- und die Surf Szene meine Domänen, der Blues nicht so sehr, aber Elmo fand ich schon grandios und so schön ungeschliffen, als ich John Mayall & Bluesbreakers mit Peter Green "A Hard Road" und davon "The Super-Natural" hörte. Das erinnerte mich sehr an Elmore James. Der war für viele Blues und R&B Barden sehr essentiell... It's all Rock'n'Roll und Surf's up!
Jacqueline Taïeb
Taïeb arrived in France with her parents at age eight. She began composing songs with her guitar at 12[1] and in 1966 was discovered by a talent scout while Taïeb was singing with friends. After arriving in Paris, she was signed to Impact Records and released the song "7 heures du matin" in 1967, which became her biggest French hit. She was subsequently voted Best Newcomer at the inaugural Midem music festival in Cannes for the song.[3] The song was about a teenage girl who fantasizes about Paul McCartney.[4]
In the early 1970s, Taïeb took a break from recording. In 1988, she penned the song "Ready to Follow You", which became an international hit for American singer Dana Dawson. The single sold more than 500,000 copies, and the album sold 300,000 in France alone.[wiki]my link

Gaius said:
@Johnny Diego. From an European and not British point of view the material Fairport and Fotheringay and Pentangle presented on their folk albums was new stuff. In fact we (on the continent) knew intellectually that some of these songs had been British Traditionals, but the other fact was, we weren't familiar with these songs, sounds and that kind of music. Where should we have heard them without internet and youtube. And the late 60's and early 70's was the first time that the children of the World-War II parents met each other by crossing borders. Borders that the elder generation didn't cross (in many cases for a lifetime and for good reasons, what means war crime).
We knew that there were some British groups digging and grabbing in the past. And the reception of these folk-songs was split. In Germany it was a strictly no-go for a longer time to be concerned with music of the past, because it was contaminated by the Nazis. These young people don't accept any music which was written before 1945. And out of this approach they refused folk music coming from another country too.
Me and a lot of other people who refused in a young age living in an ideological tunnel liked that kind of music. And as I said yesterday, I saw Fotheringay live (and on the ferryboat) and it (in fact it was Sandy) was overwhelming.
And out of the Blue came some bands in Germany too, which are deeply engaged and British (and Irish) folk music. Originating from traditional folk music, BRÖSELMASCHINE were formed in Duisburg in autumn 1968, and were fronted by renowned guitarist, theorist and writer Peter Bursch. The original band, who were inspired by Pentangle (their quote, not mine) and European folk musics, played a mixture of all sorts of cultures. They wrapped vibrant songs in a hybrid of folk, Indian music, psychedelic rock and cosmic musics, all fused together to form a delicate spacious folk-fusion of great beauty. And in 1971 they published their first LP. It's here (wav files, artwork and infos included as always):

Hello, @nonymous: the link for my July 2 Jazz overflow works fine for me; I just tested it (8:25 PM, UTC -5.00, 4 July): https://we.tl/vYGMeZjl8Q.
Let me know if you run into further trouble; I haven't deleted those tracks yet, and can reupload them. You might also want try a different browser; We Upload works well with IE (ho-hum) and Opera.
PS: The quality and range of MontysMusic's Oddments is far deeper and wider than anything I've put up here. I'm just giving away what I don't have room or time for anymore; Monty's offerings, by contrast, are COOL.
Cheers!

Greetings from Switzerland - Nenest
@ thanks to johnny diego for sharing fotheringay and let some people aware of their music and sandy denny great voice.
Believe this is one of Tz aims make people aware of past and or less know artists
Hi RYP,
Du hast völlig Recht, "It's all Rock'n'Roll" und der begeistert mich schon das ganze Leben lang, wäre aber wohl nie so entstanden, wenn es den Blues nicht schon gegeben hätte. Meine ganz große Leidenschaft ist die Garage, aber ich finde in jedem stilistischen Bereich der Musik Perlen, die mich zum Schwärmen bringen. Egal ob irgendetwas cool und angesagt ist oder nicht. Auf keinen Fall möchte ich mich diesbezüglich einschränken oder einschränken lassen, was natürlich manchmal auch schräge Blicke verursacht hat, weil zu schräg, zu seicht, zu laut, zu frickelig oder was auch immer.
Der Surf hat bei mir auch immer einen Platz in meinem Herzen gehabt, wenn auch nicht so tief verwurzelt wie bei Dir, aber Dank Dir / TZ habe ich ja das Glück jeden Tag den besten Surf angeboten zu bekommen der zu haben ist und da komme ich mal auf die Surfin' Gorillas zu sprechen. Die habe ich Anfang des Jahres mal irgendwo zufällig gehört und war schwer angetan und wollte auch mal was von ihnen posten, was ich aber offensichtlich nicht hingekriegt habe, aber es gibt ja noch Dich.
Meine Frage ist jetzt noch, hast Du die beiden anderen Alben der Surfin' Gorillas ("The Return Of..." und "Aloha") auch zum posten geplant? Wenn nicht, ich hab sie in meiner Sammlung.
Schönen Gruß hier von der Elbe ins Ruhrgebeat.
@ montysmusic, thanks for Ruby & Wendy, nice to listen to the new stuff.
cheers,ELtel
I've been loving the song swarm offerings sprinkled in the comments for the last few weeks.
A roundup of all the swarm links in one file would be a great idea, dont'cha think?
Asking for a friend, you loveable goofballs.
Super, nee, die hab ich nicht, nur die ich geposted habe. Wenn Du mir die beiden anderen schicken würdest, das wäre toll und ich poste sie in den nächsten Tagen auf der Hauptseite. Danke im Voraus!
Und was das von Dir angesprochene "einschränken" angeht: Bloß nicht, denn wat jut is, is jut und man kann eben nicht allen gerecht werden, hat schon John Peel gesagt!
Grüsse zurück an die sonnige Elbe aus'm sonnigen Ruhrgebeat
...und da hat "Mein Held" John Peel (R.I.P.) wie so oft Recht gehabt.
Surfin' Gorillas kommt, dauert aber etwas. Wenn alles gut geht morgen.

Just tried the Montysmusic link for the JACQUELINE TAIEB post. It works fine.
Thanks a bunch!
Thanks to Gaius for BRÖSELMASCHINE (great band) and to montysmusic for the Stones share.
@montysmusic - BIG THANKS for Vidunder!!!
Hi RYP,
hatte gestern Spät-, heute Frühdienst und bin ganz schön platt. Mußte dann zu meiner Verärgerung noch feststellen, daß die Datei von der ich dachte sie wäre "The Return Of The Surfin' Gorillas" doch nur die "New Adventures..." ist. Hätte ich mal vorher genauer checken sollen, aber Veröffentlichungsdatum 2003 passte genau. Shit happens.
Aber immerhin habe ich die "Aloha" im Angebot und die ist genauso vorzüglich wie die beiden anderen Scheiben, die Du schon kennst. Ich wünsche Dir noch einen schönen Abend und hier ist...
Surfin Gorillas - Aloha (Rhythm Bomb Records 2015) @320

Pubbi,
macht nix, man kann nicht alles haben! Das ist eigentlich auch gut so! Ich freue mich aber schon auf "Aloh".
"Spät-, heute Frühdienst", das deutet auf brutalen Dienst im Krankenhaus hin und erinnert mich an meinen Zivildienst Anfang der 70er...
Wow, voll ins Schwarze getrofen! Brutal ist tatsächlich genau der richtige Ausdruck. Bin froh, daß ich eine wunderbare Familie und die Musik als Ausgleich habe. Tschau
johanna...
