We have a first entry each day that is a picture or a video, and only in that entry you can place your music links and requests (NO ALBUMS AFTER 2015 AND A LIMIT OF 3 EVERY DAY)!

THESE SONGS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BIGGER HITS
Have you ever heard a song that you felt could've been a hit, if not for one small thing? It may have been because of the production or singing, or were too long and were not played, were not released as singles and hidden on albums, or simply on albums that nobody bought and some were simply not marketed well. Also, there are thousands of records that missed the grade simply because the competition was so intense, particularly in the 60's.
Lots of music slipped through the radio sifting process, and have become lost over time. Radio stations usually programme their playlists based on chart success. No sales or chart success led to no lasting memory of many of the songs. They became lost gems.
I trawled through my collection and have identified songs that were not big hits, many not at all. It was a frustrating yet delightful exercise. I could make so many more volumes of lost gems but decided to limit findings to 40 tracks per decade. These tracks are presented in 20 tracks per disc. Further, I have tried to pick four tracks per year of that decade. Some years in a particular decade had more powerful tracks and therefore some years may have had more tracks and others that had less. You may also say that there are other tracks that should also be included in these lists. And I agree. But limiting these track to 40 per decade make for a better compilation, rather than post everything.
I am pleased to present 12 discs in total covering each decade starting 1950's and ending 2000's that capture tracks that SHOULD have been bigger hits.
In this first post of "These Songs Should Have Been Bigger Hits" the Fifties and Sixties are represented. Next I will post the balance of Sixties material and both Seventies discs...
I hope some of these forgotten gems may ring a long dormant bell. Enjoy these beautiful songs.

JEFF BUCKLEY
Jeffrey Scott Buckley (November 17, 1966 - May 29, 1997)
was an American singer and guitarist whose unique voice,
spanning four octaves, launched him to semi-celebrity.
He played with experimental guitarist Gary Lucas in his
band Gods and Monsters.
In 1994, Buckley released his first album Grace, composed of ten tracks.
While sales were slow, the album quickly received critical acclaim and
appreciation from other musicians (among them Jimmy Page, Robert Plant,
Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney). Just before recordings began for his second
album which was to be called My Sweetheart the Drunk,
Jeff Buckley drowned in the Wolf River, Memphis, Tennessee, on May 29th, 1997,
aged 30.
After Buckley's death some of the demo recordings for his second album
were released on Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk.
Three other albums composed of live recordings have also been released,
along with a live DVD of a performance in Chicago.
Jeff Buckley's father was the musician Tim Buckley,
who released a series of highly acclaimed folk and jazz albums
in the late 1960s and early 1970s before his own untimely death in 1975.

Françoise Hardy – Live 1963-1965
En Concert A L’Olympia 1963 & 1965
Europe 1 – Musicorama Special
Not available in stores
The first generation of baby-boomers, those born between 1944 and 1947, with too much free time and money to spend, were the consumers of 'rock and roll' culture world wide. In France, a particular facet of the phenomena received the moniker “yé-yé” (based on the “Yeah Yeah” that was present in many English and American rock and pop songs of the era). It was distinct from rock, the word Coca-Cola was used descriptively in almost any discussion of it. Bubblegum also comes to mind. Abroad it would be personified by the likes of Cliff Richard, Paul Anka and Neil Sedaka. In France, it was embodied by Richard Anthony and bad boy Johnny Hallyday, the undisputed king. 1960 to 1963 saw an explosion of young female performers making the scene. The yé-yé girls started with Sylvie Vartan and included Françoise Hardy, Sheila, France Gall and other less notable one hit wonders. Native English speakers Petula Clark (U.K.) and Nancy Holloway (U.S.A.) were also officially known as yé-yé girls as most of their careers happened in France. Many yé-yé songs were French versions of English/American songs, a sure way to capture success.
François Hardy wasn’t known for her numerous concerts! She rarely performed live, so this is a quite rare recording.

2. J'Ai Jeté Mon Coeur (2:42)

The titles? Well, they actually make more sense if you see the art, which alternates mostly between Diane Arbus photos and hardcore gay porn. Sometimes it's tough to tell those categories apart, but I'll bet you can make an educated guess from the titles. Today starts with the Mamas and Papas and ends with The Tubes by way of Shirley Ellis, Lalo Schifrin, Icehouse, Tony Orlando & Dawn, the first "bootleg" Beatles I ever heard, and much more. It's a little laundry day item I call --

Next years have more chart entries, up to 1000. Anyway, I will continue and hope to finish the 60’s by the end of next year. Then, the 50’s. Really big project but I: 1) have time, 2) enjoy sharing this fantastic music.

RYP, I have possibly a technical question for you. I noticed on the He's A Rebel series that some of the tunes are ripped at a much lower bit rate. Could it be that each tune was ripped at a bit rate that was appropriate for its frequency bandwidth, and if so, what tool is being used for this? Of course, I'm also aware that the answer could be simpler; 'Yo YW, that's the way I found them'. :)
Thanks!

@RYP & Gyro1966
Thanks for both the great Screamin' Jay clip as well as the comp of his early recordings. Jay claimed to have as many as 75 kids, most from hookups on the road. After his death, his biographer set up a website to find Screamin' Jay's offspring. 33 were found and at least a dozen got together for a family reunion of sorts in 2001. He was so trashed in the studio when he cut the original "I Put a Spell on You" that he couldn't remember the session, and later had to listen to the single in order to try and replicate that mind-bogglingly demented performance. The smoking skulls and coffins tended to obscure the fact Jay had operatic vocal chops and was an accomplished pianist. Not to mention being a competent actor and ferocious middleweight boxer. What a guy!
Does anyone have Aselefech Ashine & Getenesh Kebret – Aselefech Ashine & Getenesh Kebret?
Amazing ethiopian funk.

Hey peeps, I’m looking for an album by jazzer Frank Ricotti and His Allstars titled The Beiderbecke Collection”. It is music from the trilogy of televisions dramas written by Alan Plater known as The Beiderbecke Affair, The Beiderbecke Connection and The Beiderbecke Tapes. Anyone of you wonderful people able to help please? Many thanks.

@TheSingleGuy @Bob many thanks for the Warped
@ Superbillie1
Great to see you here. Your blog was fantastic and I missed it very much. I hope you are going to renew it.
Thanks for the Power Pop today.
Peace to you.
@ButterBoy: thank you for this excellent start to your latest intriguing compilation set; this'll be fun - and educational, too.
@JWDen: thank you for publicly airing your unwashed linens... so to speak...
@Philo: thank you for these latest CMJ's... especially also where you've been able to back-and-fill, and bring in some earlier/missed volumes.
@SingleGuy: thank you for the additional Roy Harveys.
@Pauling: thank you for the background on Screamin' Jay. Some great artists are much smaller in real life: stunning voice and/or playing... yet nothing more to them. Not in his case, though; wow! (Bonus thanks to RYP and Gyro for showcasing him.)
Cheers!
Thanks BILL FOR THE KENT SELECTION
By request, I'm sharing what I've got of Sleepy John Estes's recordings. And since no one's specified what they want from the lists I posted, I'm uploading 'em all.
Unfortunately, with personal time really tight now, I can't write up, or even crib, a bio on him (and Hammie Nixon and Yank Rachell, et al.), and critiques of his albums, so I'll leave that as an exercise for the student instead.
Number of tracks and bitrates are as indicated; artwork's included.
Sleepy John Estes (1929-74), part 1 of 5
1941a - Complete Recorded Works, 1929-37 [24@320]
1941b - Complete Recorded Works, 1937-41 [24@320]
1941c - Memphis Shakedown (with The Delta Boys), 1941 [6@320]

@ JWDen
Unwashed Linens? OMFG, I don't have to play that one to say OMFG. Anyone who can mention the M&P plus the Tubes in one sentence that makes grammatical and disc-jocular sense...
@ apauling
Well I'll be damned: I had no idea Jay Hawkins was a boxer.
Thank You Again @Searnav for Les Gam's & Françoise Hardy. All I can think to say now is "Oh ! Wow wow wee!"

I am really enjoying your "Dandies" series, but it seems I am missing Number Four.
Would it be possible to send the link?
Thanks in advance.
