----“Three Week Hero” is an album recorded in September 1968 at Olympic Studios, London, released by rock singer P. J. Proby on 8 April 1969, by Liberty Records. The album contains a mixture of dramatic pop, blues, rock, and country style songs, a departure from Proby's trademark pop sound of the 1960s.
While it did not succeed commercially, it is best remembered today as the first time all four members of Led Zeppelin recorded together in the studio, which revived interest in the recording.
Proby recollects: ‘Come the last day, we found we had some studio time, so I just asked the band to play while I just came up with the words. They weren't Led Zeppelin at the time, they were The New Yardbirds and they were going to be my band.’
Jimmy Page had previously sessioned on May 15, 1964 with session guitarist Big Jim Sullivan for Proby on his biggest success 'Hold Me', which reached number 3 in the UK charts. Other sessions soon followed for 'Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart', 'Stagger Lee', 'Linda Lu', 'Rockin' Pneumonia And The Boogie Woogie Flu', and 'Hanging From Your Love Tree'. Due to poor managerial and investment advice, Texan-born Proby was declared a bankrupt in the United States in 1967, and decided to try his luck in the United Kingdom by relocating there in 1968. Members of Led Zeppelin were invited to participate after John Paul Jones had already pre-booked the session as a commitment prior to August 1968. The medley 'Jim's Blues' / 'George Wallace Is Rollin' In This Morninˈ' features all four members with Robert Plant playing harmonica and tambourine.----

This seems to me a fitting end to a tribute to one of the funniest men alive.
And the Big Yin must be celebrated while he is still alive.

would anyone happen to have THE WOOLIES 'RIDE RIDE RIDE' comp please?
I don't think JJ Milteau played on this. Diabolo is another harmonica player I saw many times at Chatelet-les-hales metro station, in the eighties.
Fred Combo
Anyone have any Shona Laing albums that they could post? I see that her discography was posted on the main page a few years ago, but the links have all expired. Thanks to everyone for all the great music you've helped me discover!
If there's two things i look forward to through the course of the week, it's these randoms and Butterboy's lucky dip drops - you never know what you're going to get! Cheers, Captain.
*MORE OLDE MOOVIES*
Over the next few days I'll be Ida Lupino-related movies. Either she acted in, directed, wrote, etc
"Ida Lupino (4 February 1918 – 3 August 1995) was a British actress, director, writer, and producer. Throughout her 48-year career, she appeared in 59 films and directed eight, working primarily in the United States, where she became a citizen in 1948. She is widely regarded as the most prominent female filmmaker working in the 1950s during the Hollywood studio system. With her independent production company, she co-wrote and co-produced several social-message films and became the first woman to direct a film noir, The Hitch-Hiker, in 1953."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_Lupino
*1933 The Ghost Camera*
"The Ghost Camera is a 1933 British mystery film directed by Bernard Vorhaus, starring Henry Kendall, Ida Lupino and John Mills.[1] It was written by H. Fowler Mear based on "A Mystery Narrative", a short story by Joseph Jefferson Farjeon.
Despite being made quickly on a low budget, the film has come to be considered one of the most successful Quota Quickies made during the 1930s."
Quota Quickies: "These are low-cost British films made by American distributors in order to satisfy the quota requirements of the Cinematograph Films Act of 1927

*1934 Search for Beauty*
"Search for Beauty is a 1934 American pre-Code dramedy film with some musical athletic sequences in the style of Busby Berkeley. It was directed by Erle C. Kenton and stars Buster Crabbe and Ida Lupino. The film was released shortly before Lupino's 16th birthday."

*1942 - Life Begins at Eight-Thirty*
Can you go wrong with a movie that stars Monty Wooley? No. You can't.
"Life Begins at Eight-Thirty is a 1942 comedy-drama romance film starring Monty Woolley as a washed-up, alcoholic actor, Ida Lupino as his daughter, and Cornel Wilde as her boyfriend. It is based on the West End play The Light of Heart by Emlyn Williams."

Various – Soul To Soul - D.J's Choice
https://www.discogs.com/release/22642952-Various-Soul-To-Soul-DJs-Choice
By the early ‘70s, the developing style DJ music made popularised by toasting legend U Roy was firmly established as one of the most influential forms of reggae music. Of the scores of youthful talent who found fame on the back of its popularity, none initially proved more successful than Dennis ‘Alcapone’ Smith, whose singles for many of Jamaica’s premier producers led to him becoming the island’s leading recording star.
Among his numerous rivals on the DJ scene throughout this time was his good friend, Delroy Petgrave, who as Lizzy had also enjoyed significant success as a recording artist and around the close of 1972, the two performers recorded together at a session at Duke Reid’s famed Treasure Isle studio on Bond Street, Kingston.
There, under the auspices of the studio’s sound engineer, Byron Smith, the pair toasted over some of the Duke’s finest rock steady and early reggae rhythms, cutting enough material for what ultimately saw issue on the best-selling long-player, ‘Soul To Soul – DJ’s Choice’.
Despite the immense popularity of the album the collection has remained unavailable since the 1990s, but now at last receives its long overdue reissue, with its original dozen tracks bolstered the remainder of the duo’s Treasure Isle work – as well as the instrumental version sides that featured on the alternate sides of the pair’s 7” singles for the label.
[...] There can’t be much doubt that Dennis Alcapone was at the top of the tree when it came to DJs at the time of Soul To Soul: D.J’s Choice and the on-record chemistry with Lizzy reflected the friendship of the pair well. This reissue has some good bonuses apart from the LP itself and the sleeve note gives us a fair amount of information about the performers. As far as bring the reggae party to your house, you can’t do much better than Soul To Soul. Two great DJs and those indestructible Treasure Isle grooves make for the ideal combination – hold on though, because things will get wild. -Ian Canty
