Medicine Head – Dark Side Of The Moon

Original LP = Dandelion 2310-166 (U.K. 1972)

French LP with different cover = Polydor GU 33 / 2310-166 (France 1972)

This rip = Japanese CD = UYCY-9441 (Japan 2004)

John Fiddler (guitar, piano, vocals)
Keith Relf (bass, production)
John Davies (drums)

It came out months before Pink Floyd’s LP.

Medicine Head were a British blues rock band, active in the 1970s. They were formed in 1968, and came to prominence when championed by DJ, John Peel, who signed them to his Dandelion record label. “Dark Side Of The Moon” was the band’s third album, released in 1972, just a few months before Pink Floyd’s album of the same name. Pink Floyd briefly changed the name of their piece (which they were already performing live), to 'Eclipse' in order to avoid confusion. But Medicine Head’s album went nowhere so Pink Floyd reverted to ”DSOTM”.

1. Back To The Wall (3:19)
2. In Your Eyes (3:40)
3. Sittin' In The Sun (3:04)
4. On This Road (7:12)
5. You And Me (5:19)
6. Kum On (3:37)
7. Only To Do What Is True (2:35)
8. You Can Make It Here (5:02)

Various Artists – Parlez-Vous Dylan?

25 Bob Dylan songs in French

Homemade compilation

Bob Dylan was introduced to the French audience in the mid-sixties by French singer-songwriter Hugues Aufray, when he released an album called « Aufray Chante Dylan » in 1965, with only Dylan songs sung in French. He did it again in 1995, with a double CD called “Aufray Trans Dylan”. And then again in 2009 with a CD of duets called “New Yorker”, with nothing but Dylan tracks again, this time duetting with France’s biggest singing stars. I also have a live double CD by him, called “Hugues Aufray Au Casino De Paris”, 28 tracks with 17 of them being Dylan songs. He was invited to sing a duet version of “Blowin’ In The Wind / Les Temps Changent” at a Bob Dylan concert in Paris (France) in 1984. This Various Artists compilation feature two songs by Hugues Aufray.

Other French artists who dedicated full albums to Bob Dylan songs in French language are Serge Kerval (1970) and Francis Cabrel (2012).

All artists here sing in French, but Nana Mouskouri is from Greece, Fairport Convention are from the U.K., Graeme Allwright is from New Zealand, Vicky Leandros is from Greece, Roch Voisine is from Canada, Johnny Hallyday’s father was from Belgium, Richard Anthony was born in Egypt, Roger Mason is from the USA, Mirthe is from The Netherlands, Sarclo is from Switzerland, Garou is from Canada…well I guess what’s left is from France. Even those with English-sounding names such as Eddy Mitchell and Long Chris.

2. Richard Anthony - Ecoute Dans Le Vent (Blowin' In The WInd) (3:08)
3. Bijou - Si Tu Dois Partir (If You Gotta Go, Go Now) (3:02)
4. Serge Kerval - Va Ton Chemin, J'Irai Le Mien (Most Likely You'll Go Your Way And I'll Go Mine) (3:24)
5. Francis Cabrel - S'Abriter De L'Orage (Shelter From The Storm) (5:41)
6. Fairport Convention - Si Tu Dois Partir (If You Gotta Go, Go Now) (2:19)
7. Eddy Mitchell - La Fille Du Nord (Girl From The North Country) (3:34)
8. Graeme Allwright - Qui A Tué Davy Moore (Who Killed Davey Moore) (2:31)
9. Jean-Louis Murat - Qu'Est-Ce Que Tu Voulais (What Was It You Wanted) (4:42)

Various – Greatest Jamaican Beat, Expanded 2cd Edition

https://www.discogs.com/release/13415888-Various-Greatest-Jamaican-Beat

"...Baba Boom Time..."

Continuing their fabulous excavation of all things Trojan Records and their many related labels - England's Doctor Bird Records dig deep this time and come up with a 60ts Rock Steady LP giant. Then they festoon it with an unreleased album and more unreleased/first-time-on-CD nuggets than you can shake a Moody Ska at (a whopping 50 cuts). They’ve even got the uber-rare B-sides to TR 001 and TR 002 on here as bonuses – the first and second Trojan 45s in the summer of 1967 (see Disc 1). Get your sax out folks (and I mean that in the nicest possible way)… Mark Barry

Throughout the brief, yet spectacularly creative rock steady era of the mid-to-late Sixties, the productions of Arthur ‘Duke’ Reid dominated Jamaica’s musical landscape, with the larger than life former policeman releasing hit after hit on his celebrated Treasure Isle, Dutchess and Trojan labels. Whilst at the height of his success he also issued arguably the finest Jamaican- produced album of the period, “Greatest Jamaican Beat”, a 12 track collection showcasing some of the most talented and popular acts on his roster. This seminal 1967 set provides the focus of the first disc on this 2CD release, with its dozen tracks supplemented by an array of rock steady gems from Reid’s archives, many of which have remained unavailable for years. Disc 2, meanwhile, showcases the previously unreleased LP, “Soul Rock-Steady”, featuring Treasure Isle’s in- house band, the Supersonics, fronted by the hugely gifted saxophonist Tommy McCook. Compiled in 1967, the 12-track album is further enhanced by numerous additional sides by the celebrated instrumental combo, a number of which make their CD debut. Complementing the contents of other currently available Doctor Bird and Trojan Duke Reid-themed collections, this celebration of the ever-popular rock steady sound is a must for the fans of both the genre and its greatest exponent.

[...] Though the second disc is more for curiosity value this set makes a great companion piece to the recent Treasure Isle Ska Albums collection (reviewed here). The first disc however is uniformly superb, the album stuffed with great songs and performances and the bonus tracks up to the same standard. Greatest Jamaican Beat is very much a prime example of what Treasure Isle did next after the Ska boom petered out and how the label thrived during the Rocksteady period. Both discs ably demonstrate the strengths of Duke Reid’s imprint at the highwater mark for Treasure Isle. -Ian Canty
