Elmore James "The Complete Fire And Enjoy Recordings" 1969 - mono

If I were forced off my desert island and could grab only one or two things, this might well be among them. Elmore James equals excitement, who doesn't like that? - By D. DeeringThe myth of Elmore James is what made me fascinated by his music. The "Urban Legend" says that Mr. James agreed to give the devil his soul for the ability to play the guitar. Elmore James is one of the best slide guitarists I have heard. The only problem with this box set is that the songs are somewhat redundant. This set will make you appreciate Blues/Folk guitar. - By Dan Hilferty

@ RYP
Thank you for this great post. Excellent records.

The funny thing is I just prepared a 4 CD version of Elmore James for uploading. "Elmore James - King Of The Slide Guitar [1992] The complete Chess, Chief & Fire sessions.4CD set" (Label Charly R&B ‎– CD Red Box 4)
I will not do this if you plan to at a later date.
Anyhow, please let me know if you allow me to post it.

RYP said...

Butterboy, okay no problem...

Butterboy said...

Thanks Ryp
Will do it later.
Great record.

Respect!

Thanks to Butterboy, he did a great work yesterday.

Here are some Garage Hard Rock tunes. "The Iron City Houserockers and ' Cracking under Pressure, 1983':

http://www96.zippyshare.com/v/33tTVdFp/file.html

Here is an old working link for "Änglabarn". This Malmö duo's only album was recorded in Gothenburg in the early months of 1973 with the helping hands of a large choir and even ten professional musicians. It's a mixture between Folk and Prog.

there has been on-going discussion of adblockers here in the t-zone. the one's i use are adguard (discovered here) and ublock origin. both are excellent for browsing in general, but specific to downloading from file hosts--especially the uber-annoying ones that some people inexplicably use that require you jump through multiple hoops to access--you really need to get jdownloader2 and give it a try. it's free, but it's so excellent that i have donated to support it. you will be hard-pressed to find free software for any purpose designed as well, and which performs so flawlessly.

in addition to its usefulness with file hosts, it can grab virtually anything downloadable--videos, images, and etc.

this evening for pure case i've discovered echo orbiter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echo_Orbiter) a longstanding (from 1996) philadelfia lo-fi indie band formed by two brothers with the support of friends.

the good things is that from their bandcamp page quite all their stuff can be listen and download or as free download or with the name your price option

Hey Billy K! How's life in San Machismo these days? Thanks for the Esquivel, I'm grooving hard on that.

Fourcade said...

@erasmus: I agree the sw you mention is great. Let me give
my 2 cents: an excellent freeware adblocker: "Ad Muncher".
And JDownloader2 yes it's wonderful, but you need to have
Java installed.
If you haven't/don't like Java (as is my case), an excellent
freeware dloader is: "Mipony", for all OS, lets you go
through captchas; eludes any sort of ads, etc. I've never had to go
to the actual page for d/l if using it; stops/restarts d/l, all the
usual features. It's a real contender for JD2 --and without Java ;)

Hey y'all!

I sent some albums over to a friend and I figured I should post 'em here as well: A selection of female vocalists on the Jazz / Standards spectrum, in a range from Excellent to Stunning.

From a variety of sources, all properly tagged & etc., links have about 2 weeks left:

Felicia Sanders - self titled - 1957
http://www41.zippyshare.com/v/ETjUKJvj/file.html

Julie London - Lonely Girl - 1956
http://www41.zippyshare.com/v/JDpCvLj1/file.html

Lola Albright - Lola Wants You - 1957
http://www79.zippyshare.com/v/t4l0qdUl/file.html

Ranee Lee - Seasons Of Love - 1997
http://www91.zippyshare.com/v/73IOTwZ8/file.html

Sue Raney - When Your Lover Has Gone - 1960
http://www66.zippyshare.com/v/CYk5LNpV/file.html

Keely Smith - Little Girl Blue, Little Girl New - 1963
http://www66.zippyshare.com/v/MsDJ89W8/file.html

Anne Phillips - Born To Be Blue - 1959
http://www27.zippyshare.com/v/4aXhLCDp/file.html

If you only check one, try Anne Phillips. She spent most of her career behind the scenes in the music biz, but that could only have been because "she had her reasons."

Can anyone help with this THE LEGENDARY JAY MILLER SESSIONS VOL. 18 – GIRL IN THE TIGHT BLUEJEANS

geriatrix said...

I posted this yesterday - the missing album, but don't know how to check the bitrate, so it might be better than 192, or worse!

"So glad to be able to contribute something to this heavenly place at last! Dave And Toni Arthur - Hearken To The Witches Rune - not my rip, but my upload.
http://www65.zippyshare.com/v/oa1zpfA9/file.html
I would tell you the bitrate but I've no idea how to find out. Sorry.

daniel, thanks for the tip on mipony. i just did a side-by-side comparison with jdownloader and was surprised at the difference. jdownloader is easily 5 times faster, plus, the features that are free with jdownloader are only included in the pay version of mipony. the test was done on a zippy file. the first one i tried was wetransfer, and mipony couldn't handle it. the only reason i have java installed is for jdownloader, otherwise i'd uninstall it.

ryp, thanks for mr james.

mr child, thanks for the latest history lesson.

Aging Child said...

@MuddyW: Thank you warmly for the kind word - I'm glad (and relieved) that at least some of the hard-drive overload is finding good and appreciative homes.

Koko's great in particular, and deserves to be heard more... and now she is.

@Erasmus: Most welcome! To paraphrase Santayana (very badly): Those who forget history are doomed to live shallow, bland lives. None of that here.

Cheers!

Sorry for the double posting. Lost connection the first time so wasn't sure if it posted or not.
