Freddy & The Four-Gone Conclusions "Wigged Out Sounds" 2002

I liked the music Freddy Fortune was making with Fortune & Maltese, but nothing prepared me for how fab this newer combo would be......This CD is amazing, a cornucopia of wild '60s sounds, ranging from Merseybeat type songs ("It's Me") to Yardbirds-style rave-ups ("Fell From Grace") to folk-rock ("Today") to freakbeat psychedelia ("I Can't See You"). The production is great without being slick and sounds very 1960s. Songs like "It's Me" nick a bit from the Who, and you can hear echoes of Love, the Byrds, the Sonics, the 13th Floor Elevators, the Nightcrawlers - whose "Little Black Egg" gets a sequel here in the form of "Little Purple Bird" - among others. A cover of Del Shannon's "Stand Up" even features Shannon sideman/producer Max Crook on his famous "Musitron" organ. The thing that really makes this stand out is the quality of the songwriting. These songs are all really, really good. Check out the psycho garage stomp of "(Come Over) To My Side" where Freddy cuts loose with a snotty snarl and the fuzz - and fuzz-wah guitar solo that pans between the left and right speakers - is out of control. Great cover art, great tunes, great band. Get this! (Alan Wright)trax:
1. Intro 2. Today 3. It's Me 4. Stranded 5. Fell From Grace 6. I've Been Waiting 7. I Can't See You 8. Stand Up 9. Cry In Shame 10. Little Purple Bird 11. (Come On Over) To My Side 12. Why Can't It Be Me 13. Shattered 14. Ball & Chain 15. (You're Just A) Waste Of My Time (mono) 16. Gotta Give It Time (mono) 17. Today (alternate)

Let's go on with some Fairport Convention albums.

Angel Delight is the sixth album by the British folk rock band Fairport Convention. This was the first Fairport Convention album without guitarist Richard Thompson, and the lineup consisted of Simon Nicol (guitar, vocals) (the only original group member), Dave Swarbrick (violin, vocals), Dave Pegg (bass, vocals), and Dave Mattacks (drums).

The title derives from "The Angel" in Little Hadham, Hertfordshire, a former pub which the band were living in at the time, and the eponymous track is autobiographical, referring to "John the Wood" (co-producer), "Dave the Drum" (Mattacks), and even detail such as "peer through the haze watching Top of the Pops". The band moved out of The Angel shortly after the album's release, partly because a lorry had run, out of control, into Dave Swarbrick's bedroom.

The U.K. album cover included liner notes consisting of dialogue among band members and roadies preparing to leave "The Angel" for a gig, that was replaced in American and Canadian copies by a more straightforward, biographical liner essay.

Musically, Angel Delight progressed little from its predecessors, although an appearance on Top of the Pops as a featured album contributed to its chart success;[8] it reached number eight in the UK Album chart, making it the band's highest charting album in the UK.[Wiki] Here it is:

http://www27.zippyshare.com/v/NguoJmK0/file.html

"Babbacombe" Lee is the seventh album by English folk rock group Fairport Convention. Released in 1971, it tells the life story of John "Babbacombe" Lee, a Victorian-era alleged murderer who was condemned to death but reprieved after the gallows failed on three occasions to work properly. After the commercial and chart success of its predecessor, Angel Delight, the album sold disappointingly, and although critically acclaimed, it has its place in musical history as the first "folk rock opera".

Some soul for the weekend....JAMES PHELPS - Love Is A Five Letter Word, a compilation featuring all of his 45s, and a selection of his gospel group recordings.

James Phelps - born April 2, 1932, Shreveport, Louisiana – died October 26, 2010, New York City - Started out, as so many soul singers do, in gospel, having his biggest impact with the Clefs Of Calvary, a group he founded and, I think it’s fair to say were gospel “superstars” in the later 1950s/early 1960s. Later he replaced Sam Cooke in the Soul Stirrers - and if you’ve not heard James Phelps sing before, you’ll soon see why Sam was keen to have him.

James turned to secular music in 1965 and hit #12 on the Billboard R&B chart, and #66 on the Hot 100 with Love Is A Five Letter Word. In all he cut seven singles for five different labels and I have pulled them all together on this set. Personally I think they’re all great, and I can’t figure out why James Phelps didn’t hit the heights. The overtones of Sam Cooke are obvious, but at the same time, James had his own style and his own sound.

To complete the set I have included some of his gospel tracks from the Clefs of Calvary and the Soul Stirrers. You don’t have to be religious to revel in the sound of a man who truly could sing. Just a beautiful voice, filled with passion.

There’s a nice interview with James here from the archives here:

Thank you all so so much for taking the time to share so much wonderful & groovesome music, y'all!

In response, I've decided to share my latest home compilation as well.

It's called 'Ann Wants To Dance - Bowling For Souls In Minnesota' & is a 'Fargo Season 3'-flavoured comp. Therefore, it includes a lot of the music from that series, along with other recent finds of mine which seemed to fit the general ambience (some tracks from 'Sneaky Pete' & 'The Jinx' TV shows, which are both also worth a watch!), and of course the usual selection of choice dialogue soundbites (SPOILER ALERT!!!), plus a 'LoreNZoMix' of almost an entire scene (from episode 8), mixed to an instrumental piece, which I think worked rather well.

http://www9.zippyshare.com/v/MEKzu4vW/file.html

There's no password required, and the CD-length comp includes rather nice
think) cover & CD art too. Enjoy! :-)

CoolRuler - Thanks for the "Troubled Waters - Deep Soul From The Deep South," best southern soul comp I've heard.

Billy K - Great Cats & the Fiddle comp. Fills in a major gap in my collection.

Aging Child said...

Pudge, you're very welcome... it's my little thanks to this great community, knowing that the finest and keenest ears are right here. (I wish I'd kept track of the many original donor sites, so I could give them their due; credit and kudos go to them, after the talented artists themselves.)

It'll be somewhere close to 7/27, before I've finally turned the Jazz over to the TZ family. After that, it's U.S. old-timey / bluegrass / country (mostly early, 1920s-40s)... and then blues, baby, lots of blues.
