______________________________________________________

01 Tony Joe White - Live At The Basement [2008]

Tony Joe White (born July 23, 1943) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known for his 1969 hit "Polk Salad Annie" and for "Rainy Night in Georgia", which he wrote but was first made popular by Brook Benton in 1970. He also wrote "Steamy Windows" and "Undercover Agent for the Blues", both hits for Tina Turner in 1989; those two songs came by way of Turner's producer at the time, Mark Knopfler, who is a friend of White. "Polk Salad Annie" was also recorded by Elvis Presley and Tom Jones. (Wikipedia)

After 40 some years of delivering skewed, greasy, swamp-soaked Louisiana pop to the world, it's amazing that more people don't know about Tony Joe White beyond his "Polk Salad Annie" hit from 1969, which bubbles up from time to time on the oldies stations and always sounds great. He's recorded plenty (some 21 albums), but White continues to fly well beneath the commercial radar. This live set was recorded in 2002 at the Basement in Sydney, Australia and is essentially the soundtrack to the television show of the performance that originally aired a year later in 2003. It's a fun show, featuring White's trademark funky guitar playing accompanied by drummer Marc "Boom Boom" Cohen, although it has to be said that White's voice isn't quite what it was in the '60s, but that's probably to be expected. It's interesting to compare this performance with 1980s Live from Austin, TX, which was a wilder, woollier, and more satisfying outing. Still, as they say, any Tony Joe White sure beats not having any Tony Joe White at all. (AllMusic Review by Steve Leggett)

02 Shawn Mullins - Soul's Core [1998]

Shawn Mullins (born March 8, 1968) is an American singer-songwriter who specializes in folk rock, instrumental rock, adult alternative, and Americana music. He is best known for the 1998 single "Lullaby", which hit number one on the Adult Top 40 and was nominated for a Grammy Award.

Soul's Core is the fourth studio album by Shawn Mullins, spawning the hit "Lullaby" (#1 on Adult Top 40, #9 on Modern Rock), as well as "Shimmer" (#27 on Adult Top 40). It was first released on July 7, 1998. (Wikipedia)

Bonus Tony Joe White - Swamp Music The Complete Monument Recordings [2006] 4 x CD Bonus Box Set

Digitally remastered four CD set containing all three of White's Monument Records albums in their entirety plus a slew of unreleased tracks, including ten 1969 Paris sessions and seven live performances from the Isle Of Wight. Recorded with such Muscle Shoals musicians as David Briggs, Norbert Putnam, and Jerry Carrigan, White's first album, 1969's Black And White, featured such originals as "Willie And Laura Mae Jones" and "Polk Salad Annie," along with such covers as Jimmy Webb's "Wichita Lineman." Released later that year, White's second album, ...Continued, featured the same Muscle Shoals players, along with Mike Utley, Tommy McClure, and Sammy Creason. Tony Joe came out in 1970, revealing an absence of the horns that had been so dominant on the previous records, and anchored by White's acoustic guitar. Following an electrifying performance at the legendary Isle Of Wight festival, White moved to Warner Bros. Records, ending this first chapter. Rhino. 2006. (Amazon)

Blue Cheer - Oh! Pleasant Hope (1971)
http://www4.zippyshare.com/v/dSKWevvy/file.html
enjoy that vinyl rip !!!

It's hard to imagine what would prompt someone to suggest the band that recorded Vincebus Eruptum should get in touch with their pastoral side, but for their sixth album in only four years, Blue Cheer decided to explore something close to folk-rock and they sounded a lot more comfortable with the stuff than anyone had a right to expect. 1971's Oh! Pleasant Hope featured the same lineup as the previous year's The Original Human Being (the first time since Outsideinside that the band had the same musicians for two albums in a row), and while the previous album found Blue Cheer trying to buff off some of their rough edges, this one is loose, laid-back, and playful; if it doesn't hit very hard, it's one of the most organic and natural-sounding recordings to carry the group's name. The album opens with "Hiway Man," an updated variant on old folk ballads with acoustic guitars and a magisterial organ dominating the arrangement; Oh! Pleasant Hope upends traditional expectations about this most heavy band, and while their tough, blues-centered rock is still present on songs like "Believer" and "Heart Full of Soul" (not the Yardbirds hit but a Dickie Peterson original), most of the time the music is simpler and quieter, and "Traveling Man," "Money Troubles," and "Ecological Blues" come off like jams cut live in the studio rather than stuff the group labored over for days. And the band flies their freak flag high on the tale of a mythic, mean-spirited cop "Lester the Arrester" and the title track, a likably goofy singalong in which a guy looking for reefer in the midst of a cannabis drought imagines a day when "grass will flow like wine." Oh! Pleasant Hope was recorded at a time when Blue Cheer's fortunes were at a low ebb, and it was the last album they would cut before breaking up for several years; it's hard to imagine anyone thought this was a shrewd commercial move, and at heart, this is an album Blue Cheer made because they felt like doing this, and the relaxed attitude and sense of fun is what makes this album work.(allmusic)

Here's the Elvis Brothers that angel requested. As a Midwesterner of a certain age I saw them several times live in my post-college years. They never failed to put on a great show. The last entry, "Not The Beatles" is attributed to them although I can't find any indication of such a release online. It is composed of covers of various origins and certainly pleasant enough no matter who it actually is...

The Fuzztones' Rudi Protrudi speaks pointedly about the bands they influenced--and he numbers the mighty RAMONES among them, saying that they ripped off a lot of this video for I WANNA BE SEDATED from The Fuzztones' WARD 81. The case could certainly be made!

GOLDBAND LABEL

Please does anyone have these odd tracks ? :-

Eddie Shuler - Once Again 2:53
Boppin Billies - I'll Try One More Time (instr.) 3:05

Plus the LP "Zydeco Birth"

-------------------------------------------

I have recreated the 3 LP's below. As far as I know the tracks are the correct versions.
There's a couple of issues with "Swampland Soul" though. I couldn't find the track 'Israel Jones - Mummies Curse'. A version was recorded (& written) by Freddie Fender & Otis Ray and is on the LP "Freddie Fender And Friends At Goldband" which came out at a similar time. I suspect this was put on the Soul album under an alias so it didn't look like a country performer.
Also, the track 'Count Sidney & His Dukes - Do Your Stuff' I found a vocal and an instrumental version both of similar length - so I've put both on - one must be the correct one!

Here's the 3 Still albums you were missing. They're only in 128 or 160 though - but I suspect they are from the same original source as yours. Yes, a good set with some obscure rocking r&b on them. I think these 19 are all that were done, unless anyone knows better.

Caution, Xmas Themed post:

Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol, 1962

Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol is a musical adaptation of Charles Dickens's famous short story A Christmas Carol starring the cartoon character Mr. Magoo. Aside from the 1950 marionette special The Spirit of Christmas, it was the first animated holiday program ever produced specifically for television, originally airing on 18 December 1962, and the only one until the Rankin-Bass stop-motion Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer appeared in 1964. It featured the voices of Jim Backus, Morey Amsterdam, Jack Cassidy, Royal Dano, Paul Frees, Joan Gardner, John Hart, Jane Kean, Marie Matthews, Laura Olsher, and Les Tremayne.

@Monty @ Wild Flowers
Monty, thank you for sharing. But no one should be confused. Monty shared "The Wild Flowers" with their LP 'The Joy of it all' and their EP 'Melt like Ice'. These Wild Flowers were an Indie Band from Wolverhampton, UK.

Later he shared another "Wild Flowers" (his wrong writing) with 'Tales of Canterbury, 1994'. These Flowers have nothing to do with the above mentioned band. Correctly they wrote themselves as "The WILDE Flowers". And these guys do have to tell a lot about Canterbury. Because they live and became famous there. These "Flowers are non other than Pyle Hastings, Robert Wyatt, Hugh & Brian Hopper and other musicians from "The Soft Machine" and "Caravan". This music has nothing to do with "The Wild Flowers" Indie Band of the late 80's and early 90's.

And now for something....let's talk about "Flyte"
If you poke around the web you'll see this short-lived seven piece progressive outfit listed as being either Belgian, or Dutch. The fact of the matter is Flyte was actually multinational, with both Belgian and Dutch members. At least part of the confusion seems to stem from the fact their sole album "Dawn Dancer" was recorded at Kritz Recording Studios in Kuurne, Belgium, but was distributed by the Dutch Don Quixote label.

Formed in 1972 an initially known as Grace (to avoid a lawsuit from a British band named Grace they decided on a name change), Flyte showcased the talents of drummer Hans Boeye, keyboardist players Leo Cornelissens and Jacky van Liesdonck, bassist Peter Dekeersmaeker, percussionist Hans Marynissen, singer Lu Rousseau, and lead guitarist Ruud Wortman. Formed in the early-1970s the band started out doing progressive and rock covers which generated some local attention on the Benelux club circuit. They attracted more attention when they won a battle-of-the-bands in 1976, which saw them graduate to opening at a couple of large outdoor festivals.

Thanks to Montysmusic for the Vinyl Vic answer music. They're terrific. Much appreciated! Not sure if that was posted in response to my request, but I'm still looking for the 2 CD set "I Put the Bomp: Great R&R Answer Discs" which was posted here some years ago. Thanks again to all.

Big thanx for the TJW Monument box. Lost mine in that damn crash. One of the problems of buying something, adding it to library, and selling it...

I just re-d/l'ed it from Zippy, and opened it with Win.Rar. Works just fine for me. Try again maybe?
