Manassas – Concertgebouw, Amsterdam (1972) [triple album - from 2 concerts]
[After a chance meeting with Flying Burrito Brothers singer/multi-instrumentalist Chris Hillman in Cleveland, where Stills’ tour schedule crossed paths with that of the Burritos – a band that, by late 1971, had undergone multiple personnel changes and was in financial trouble[5] – Stills saw an opportunity to change his artistic direction. He subsequently contacted Hillman, asking him, along with Burritos’ guitarist Al Perkins and fiddler Byron Berline, to join him in Miami at Criteria Studios to jam. Stills also invited several members of his touring band (drummer Dallas Taylor, bassist Calvin “Fuzzy” Samuels, keyboardist Paul Harris and vocalist/percussionist Joe Lala) to play at the session.
Criteria Studios engineer Howard Albert has said “Manassas was one of the greatest and the most underrated bands of the seventies. That double album, along with Eric Clapton’s Layla – which me and [Ron Albert] both worked on – stand as the most important and best albums we’ve ever been a part of.” Of the band’s prowess on stage, Stephen Stills has said “Manassas was such a terrific band. It really had some structure and reminded me of [Stills’ previous band] the Buffalo Springfield at its best. Manassas could play anything.” (wikipedia)
Howard Albert and I are on the same page.

Miguel, thanks for J.J. Jackson, I'm gonna listen to this record.
After moving to the States at a very young age from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, she became the drummer in the original lineup of the Cramps. Miriam Linna was a drummer -- a chick drummer -- and this was pre-Bangles, Go-Gos, Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, White Stripes. There were no chick drummers in the 1970s. People took notice. Joey Ramone, for instance.

Free Friday Films completes its Tarantino run with the never-ever-seen
MY BEST FRIEND'S BIRTHDAY
Having chronicled Quentin Tarantino’s career as the tragic demise of a talented young’n with lots of promise but no guidance to help him out of his immature, self-made noose, we thought we should end this cinematic analysis by going back to the beginning: Quentin’s first, unfinished, and completely amateur “feature” made with his pals during his years as a video store clerk. Those pals included Roger Avery, who worked with him on the stories that became Pulp Fiction, and Craig Hamman, who wrote the original 40 page script that Tarantino then expanded into a feature. How much of each person ended up in the final product is a mystery, but My Best Friend’s Birthday is interesting as a proto-Quentin artifact that reveals and hints at the Hollywood Hero he was to become.
Interestingly, even with your expectations lowered to the level of “student film,” this film is just not very good. You keep waiting for those flashes and hints of the genius America would soon fall in love with (this project ran from 1984 – 1987; Reservoir Dogs premiered in 1992) but they’re barely there. There’s plenty of QT-as-actor, since he is one of the leads, and his rapid-fire, Energizer-Bunny-gone-haywire delivery is in full force, but his sharp, musical dialogue- the one calling card he’s always claimed as his own- is completely missing. Or, rather, there’s a lot of talking, but it is mind-numbingly uninteresting. The only hints as to what would come later are in the form of the many pop culture references that his characters drop, mostly in the terms of movies and directors- but that’s what, quite literally, every male film student does when they first get a camera: name drop every film they can via their actors. Though perhaps in 1984, this was the beginning of that trend.
Watching My Best Friend’s Birthday, once can’t help but compare it to Kevin Smith’s Clerks, another black-and-white, no-budget, first-time-film by a Gen-X’er. And while Tarantino is a thousand times better filmmaker and craftsman than Smith (I mean, Tarantino may have nothing to say, but he certainly knows how to say nothing in the most cinematic way possible) it’s really interesting to note that Clerks is an infinitely more watchable film, with much funnier and interesting dialogue, and with lowlife characters you actually end up caring about. Tarantino’s film, on the other hand, is so lacking in the latter, that when it ends abruptly (the film was never completed, so you get what you get) you’re more than happy to be let off the hook, not caring one bit where the story may have ended up.
Whether this is mostly the fault of Hamman’s poor writing, or Tarantino’s immaturity (the only women who appear in the film are, quite literally, ex-girlfriends and prostitutes) is hard to say, but it’s pretty interesting to be looking for hints of QT’s talent and come up pretty much empty-handed. Reservoir Dogs, flawed as it may be, is still a great film full of great characters and great dialogue- a testament to how good a filmmaker Tarantino already was. How Quentin got from here to there in such a short time might be a story worth telling someday, but in the meantime, all we’ve got is this. Of course, that’s what amateur films are for- to make mistakes you learn from- so, in this way, mission accomplished. QT got better… and then got worse. Let this be a lesson, kids.

"There were no chick drummers in the 1970s" (?)
Hope my comment won't offend you:
Honey Lantree (The Honeycombs)
Ginger Bianco (Goldie and the Gingerbreads, Isis)
Nancy Ball, Darline Arnone (The Pleasure Seekers)
Nancy Rogers (Cradle)
Olivia 'Liver' Favela (Birtha)
Alice DeBuhr (Fanny)
Sandy West (The Runaways)
Paloma 'Palmolive' Romero (The Slits, The Raincoats)
June Miles-Kingston (Mo-dettes)
Denise Dufort (Girlschool)
and Maureen 'Moe' of course.
Just to name some (including 1960s ones)... Kudos to them.
Often regarded as a founding member of The Cramps,
Miriam Linna was actually their second drummer,
replacing (briefly involved) Pam Balam Beckerleg, Bryan Gregory's sister.
Anyway, thanx Koukouleika for Miriam's records.

Just browsing through a backlog of TZ posts from the past couple of days and noticed a post of Cambodian rock from the 60s and early 70s and thought I would share a link to a fabulous UK-based podcast on counterculture called the Bureau of Lost Culture. This linked episode is dedicated to Cambodian Rock'n'Roll. Sadly, many of the musicians in these recordings and the records themselves, did not survive the Khemr Rouge. Worth a listen if you have an interest in the music.

Koukouleika:
According to its Discogs entry, your copy of "Miriam - Nobody's Baby (2014)" is missing its last two tracks, "Questioningly" and "Not For Me", and has two alternate tracks, Bobby Darin's version of "Not For Me" and Billy Nicholls' version of "Come Again".
Does anybody have a version of the album with Miriam's last two tracks?
Thanks in advance!
@Koukouleika,
There were loads of female drummers in the 70s. Brie Howard of Fanny for one and Karen Carpenter who sold $34.6 million records.
Sorry, no dollar sign, just 34.6 million.
