…and now for something completely different! 2019 - 0664
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 RELEASED IN 2017 AND AFTER, AND A DAILY LIMIT OF 3 DISCS)! All the rest official posts will only allow comments related to the official posts and such. That way it will keep things much more organized and tidy.
Enjoy!

Good morning, TZ! Today's R&B classic is Lightnin' Hopkins, one of those artists who has multiple volumes in this series. In the Kitsch Korner, we have the first of two discs of soundtrack material and sound effects from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, and an absolutely terrific live set from Soft Machine. Enjoy!

I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed this 1995 album by Canadian rock band The Tea Party, but was reminded this afternoon when my computer played a track randomly.
I thought I had other albums by them, but I’m damned if I can find them.
All I can find online are either shitty quality (128) copies of the other albums, or blind alley links that either lead nowhere or end up with some registration nonsense.
That being said, does anyone have any of the Tea Party albums at a decent bitrate (192/320) that they’d be willing to share, please?

Vince Taylor Et Ses Play-Boys – Le Rock C’Est Ca
Barclay 80 159 (France January 1962)
This is Vince Taylor’s first ever LP, a 10”/25 cm, 33 rpm, 10 track vinyl LP.
This is my copy from Belgium, same reference number as the French one, pressed in Belgium but released in an imported French sleeve.
Over the years, it was re-released in various vinyl and CD formats, with or without bonus tracks, but this is the original thing.
There were 3 spelling mistakes in the songs titles, as mentioned hereunder.
The audio tracks are taken from a CD compilation (meaning I didn’t rip my vinyl) but the Belgian LP images (front, back, labels) are freshly scanned.

01 Jamie Saft Trio - Trouble (Plays Bob Dylan) [2006]
https://www84.zippyshare.com/v/pm4tGCgF/file.html
Jamie Saft Trio's "Trouble" is a delightful tribute to Bob Dylan. These radical reworkings are reinterpretations from the intimate side of an iconic lyricist. "Dignity", "Dirge", and "Disease Of Conceit" are incredible compositions that resonate with the musical and spiritual intricacies of Bob Dylan's dynamic music. Jamie Saft performs on piano and hammond organ, joined by Greg Cohen on contrabass, and Ben Perowsky on drums. Special guest vocalists include Mike Patton on "Ballad Of A Thin Man", and Antony on "Living The Blues". Most of he 6 instros are led by piano or Hammond organ. My favorites are the 2 organ tracks: Dignity is reminiscent of Brother Jack McDuff or Booker T., while Disease of Conceit is in a different, hymn-like style, a fitting album closer.
This is a wonderful album with Bob Dylan songs, interpreted in a jazz style by the JS trio. The piano playing is crisp, the piano sounds clear, even and stable (yes, JS even includes the name of the technician on the album cover). The bass reels you in, big time, as in the opening number. Improvisation does get a little busy later on, so that contrasts with the more laid back overall approach that makes up so much of the appeal, but then there are different listening moments / times that will allow for different appreciation. Up to the next album Astaroth with John Thorn. JS trio 'rocks' ! (well; 'jazzes' ?) (Amazon)
Jamie Saft and his dynamic trio presents a sparkling interpretation of the work of Bob Dylan. A lifelong Dylan enthusiast, Saft is the perfect man to take on this challenging project and his choice of compositions, spanning over four decades of activity, is as creative as the arrangements themselves. Featuring several guest vocalists including Mike Patton and Antony, this is a deep and meaningful tribute to one of the world's greatest living songwriters, a Jew whose influence resounds in the work of several generations of pop musicians.

The sound quality is great and I'm really pleased; I can listen to this CD anytime... Love jazz and Pink Floyd so having the two combined makes for an hour of pure listening pleasure. Perfect for a rainy Sunday afternoon while reading or just relaxing on the couch! Anyway, HIGHLY recommended. (Amazon)

03 VA - Ahk-toong Bay-Bi Covered [2011]
https://www84.zippyshare.com/v/2YjiRk7A/file.html
This is possibly the of the greatest hidden musical gem, you are likely to ever find. Commissioned by the UK magazine Q to commemorate the 20th anniversary of U2's Achtung Baby, this is the finest artist's tribute to a seminal musical work imaginable. I can not remember the last time I had such an emotional reaction on first listening. It is simply fantastic. I had a hard time just getting past the opening track, NIN's version of Zoo Station. I must have listened to it ten times, before even starting in on the rest of the album. Each track is better than the last, and I hate to say it, maybe the equal of the original. The love and respect us the artists is so very evident. I have simply NEVER heard a tribute album this good. How could it be that the only to have gotten this CD, on it's release, was to have it arrive with your Nov. 2011 issue of Q. It's kind of like having the Mona Lisa arriving with this weeks Sports Illustrated. So...stop whatever you are doing, and do whatever you need to do, to find this CD. Maybe...Better Than the Real Thing... (Amazon)

So I'm wondering if you have it and still intend to feature it on the main page? Thanks again for the other 9 which I got at the time anyway!

Australian [and some New Zealand] Various Artist Compilations - The 60s
So You Wanna Be A Rock 'n' Roll Star
Review - http://www.milesago.com/Recommend/rock-star.htm
One of the best Australian compilations ever. It was originally issued on Festival Records as two double LPs, one of 60s music and the other of 70s music. I owned them both, and, with the coming of the CD age, they were high on my wish list. When this set finally arrived, it was worth the wait. Along with all the songs from the original releases on two and a half discs, there were bonus tracks to to fill the third disc.

As always, thanks to everyone for their shares and thanks to RYP and Gyro for being great hosts.
Nat King Cole Trio - After Midnight; The Complete Session (remastered with bonus materials). This is a fantastic recording of the trio with jazz greats Harry "Sweets" Edison on trumpet, Willie Smith on alto sax, Juan Tizol on valve trombone and Stuff Smith on violin.
Recorded in September 1956, during a break in the sessions that produced the likes of "Love is the Thing" and the compilation album "This is Nat King Cole," "After Midnight" was a triumphant return to NKC's jazz roots.

Congratulations, "The Tea Party" is one of few band that comes right next to Led Zep and Pearl Jam in Rockmusic (my opinion). I think I've got all of their regular albums and I did post several CDs in the past time. The best of their ballads is 'Sister awake':

Links for today are closely connected with MU. The main figure of the band was Merrell Fankhauser.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merrell_Fankhauser
After starting with "The Impacts" he moved to California and founded a new band, "Fapardokly".
Fapardokly - s/t, (USA) 1967
Recorded by Merrell and the Exiles and featured on the 1967 Fapardokly album, 'Tomorrow's Girl' was a minor hit in '67, and today is still occasionally heard on classic rock and oldies radio. The Fapardokly album on which this track appears is one of the most valuable and sought after albums of its genre and era. Here it is:
https://www79.zippyshare.com/v/kCJ136yA/file.html
Soon after, Fankhauser and Farpadokly guitar player Bill Dodd formed a new band, "The HMS Bounty". One album was published. MONTY, here it is:

Merrell Fankhauser & MU
After the short time with the "HMS Bounty" Merrell Fankhauser reunited with "Farpadokly" guitar and bass player Jeff Cotton (later a member of Captain Beefheart's Magic Band) and they formed MU.
MU is the legendary sunken continent in the Pacific Ocean that had never existed. It's a romantic reconstruction and mystic elaboration of antique far-east legends, done by Madame Blavatsky, W. Scott-Elliot Rudolf Steiner and other theosophic authors. The legend has been fired by some ruins found on islands in the Pacific that are not easy to explain. Ponapé, Nan Mandol f.ex. Malden Island, Hawaii, Bora-Bora, Easter Islands. And the theory of MU was adapted by the Californian Hippies organizing festivals at Mount Shasta, the linking point of MU on the North-Californian archipelago. At least the only sunken continent in the Pacific Ocean is Zealandia. The very small rest of it is now called New Zealand, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zealandia
MU is always confused with Lemuria, a scientific construction of a landbridge between Africa and India sunken in the Indian Ocean. After Darwin had published his pioneering works there was a scientific explosion all over the world. Scientists were studying nature, knowledge accumulated. And some people wanted to know why there are elephants and tigers in India and Africa, why there are some apes, called Lemurs, here and there, why certain very similar plants growing in both countries and why there are very similar geological structures. And so some scientists like Melchior Neumayr, Ernst Haeckel and Philip L. Sclater like Sherlock Holmes put forward the proposition that there had been once a landbridge between East-Africa and South India (Sri Lanka) as the only logical solution that could describe all these similar abnormalities. That didn't work long. The Indic is too deep for a sunken landmass and finally Alfred Wegener killed this idea with his new theory of continental drift. In fact India was situated to the southeast African coast when Dinosaurs walked the earth and lost contact and moved northwards colliding with Asia and unfolding the Himalaya, http://www.scotese.com/cretaceo.htm.
But hey, I like those ideas fighting the mainstream. Science is a system that build and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions. 'Build and organize' means that is always on the move. The statement 'A' is as long 'A' as nobody looks more closely and find out that 'A' is changing to the more or less or to its contradiction what could mean, that 'A' is slowly turning into 'B'. Some theories didn't last long (see above Haeckel, Sclater), some could stand the test of time (Einstein's theory of relativity) for a long period.
O.K., let's come back to the music of MU. Discogs shows us four albums, many tracks are repeating themselves on several albums.Three compilations are collecting the rest. Yesterday we had:

What is missing like a lost continent?
MU - End of an Era, 1988 (including only a few unpublished tracks)
Best of MU, a compilation (but not really needed, because no new material, if we got the other CD's)
And MU - The Band from the lost Continent, DCD 1995.
I bought this CD, but never ripped it, so if someone can help, you're welcome.
@JWDen: thank you for brinning mo' Lightnin'... cheers!
@Serge Courtoy: de rien, mon ami - all thanks and gratitude for these Warped releases go to Riley Puckett and his bandmates, and to whoever ripped and shared them earlier. I'm honored to be able to pass them along too.
Here are:
Warped 2786 (1927-28)
Warped 2829 (1928-29)
Warped 3092 (1929-31)

(link's good till August 6)
Tomorrow, I'll post Warped 3422 (1934). You didn't say; do you (or does anyone else here) also need these?:
2470: 1924
3568: 1934-36
3771: 1937-39
4007: 1939-40
If so, I can post them as well. Again, thanks go out to the original rippers and sharers.
Cheers!
Adding my thanks for all the Tea Party. I had never heard of them, so I went to Spotify and had my mind blown.
Also...lost of great jazz today, thanks!
@Gaius, Thanks for that direction, http://myzuka.club/Search works really well.
...on a similar tack...
@zipper, I had the same problem with montysmusic’s three shoegaze albums that you did (demanding upgrade to premium). However you can get around it by downloading the tracks one at a time (as with http://myzuka.club/Search). Just click the checkbox to the left of the track and then right-click and select Download. It’s a bit laborious, but it works.
@Seamav
Had to listen to 'Games People Play' to find out what The Staple Singers, Lee Dorsey, The Upsetters would do with that song! Thanks.
@Brian
Thanks for the Paul Chambers. Great if you have more Mosaic to post.
Brian - thanks for the Mosaic, any others much appreciated.

Thanks Prof. for the 1965 Billboards and ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ for Rare Trax Vol.34. Regarding the shoegaze albums monty posted a few days ago I've got them now and I thank monty for helping me out with that. If it wasn't for that I'd have downloaded the tracks one at a time as suggested by JimH & 96dbFreak. And hi to Timebender who popped up earlier...nice to see you on here again.
