…and now for something completely different! 2854 - 2025

Those damned religious zealots, politicians, warlords and... They all bring death and ruin and they don't know that they are as superfluous as telephone disinfectors and hairdressers! - RYP

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 2023 AND AFTER, AND A DAILY LIMIT OF 3 ALBUMS AND NO REQUESTS FOR FLAC OR OTHER LOSSLESS, IF YOU WANT FLAC, BUY THE ALBUM)! Here you can say what you like, unless it's offensive, racist or discriminatory! Please keep your language polite and respectful. All other 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! RYP and Gyro1966 and Gaius R.I.P.

John Jorgenson - Franco-American Swing

FGM Records JJCD7009 (USA 2004)

John Jorgenson (guitars, clarinets, tenor saxophone, percussion)
Andy MacKenzie (rhythm guitar)
Larry Paxton (string bass)
Charlie Chadwick (string bass)
Westy Westinhofer (string bass)
Norman Fisk (string bass)
Frédéric Alarie (string bass)
Jeff Taylor (accordion)
Norman Bolton (accordion)
Charlie Morgan (drums)
Andy Leftwich (violin)
André Proust (violin)
Stéphane Allard (violin)
The Nashville Chamber Orchestra Quartet (strings)

---Guitar virtuoso John Jorgenson was the lead guitar player with the highly successful country music Desert Rose Band (led by ex-Byrds Chris Hillman). After his stint with the DRB, he played with The Hellecasters, and then spent six years playing in Elton John’s band. He also played for Barbra Streisand, Earl Scruggs, Bonnie Raitt, Benny Goodman, Roy Orbison, Emmylou Harris and many more. He also plays saxophone, dobro, piano, upright bass, clarinet, bassoon and pedal steel guitar.

Although John Jorgenson is well-renowned in the pop, country and rock world, gypsy jazz is the style of music closest to his heart. Because of his international reputation as a gypsy jazz player, John was twice asked to recreate Django Reinhardt's music for feature films, “Gattica” and “Head In The Clouds”. The latter, released in early 2005 and starring Charlize Theron and Penelope Cruz, also features John as an actor, impersonating Django Reinhardt, complete with burned hand and gypsy moustache. ---

The Hellecasters – Hell III – New Axes To Grind

Pharaoh PHCD 7003 (USA 1997)

John Jorgenson, Jerry Donahue, Will Ray

On this release, The Hellecasters (an amazing and highly skilled trio of guitarists) take their third break in a decade from their regular projects to produce an album of unpredictable and energetic instrumental music.

The three core members are John Jorgenson, Jerry Donahue, and Will Ray.

John Jorgenson, a three-time “Guitarist Of The Year” as voted by the Academy Of Country Music, has worked with Bob Seger, Bonnie Raitt, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, The Desert Rose Band, Roy Orbison, John Prine, Michael Nesmith, Elton John… Still, do not expect Top 40 riffs from Jorgenson on this recording. He wrote and plays all instruments on the bold-stroked progressive rock piece "As We Know It". His chops come through clearly on the first multi-bar solo on the hyper but cocktail-hip "Deiter’s Lounge" (which he wrote and plays vibes on).

Jerry Donahue also comes from country music and is widely respected in the field -- he worked with George Harrison, Elton John, Robert Plant, Fairport Convention and Roy Orbison. Donahue's forte is supernatural string-bending that even won the vocal praise of Danny Gatton.

Will Ray can put Tom Jones, Steve Earle, Joe Walsh, Thomas Dolby and Solomon Burke on his résumé. Ray equips himself with B-Benders and ring slides on both hands for an unusual and fluid melody line that snakes out of his original piece, "Mr. Natural".

Most fans of serious fretwork will not be disappointed with this album.

1. T.W.P.P.T. (5:58)
2. Riddler's Journey (5:29)
3. Ghosts Of 42nd Street (5:19)
4. Mist Beyond Delhi (6:09)

The Hellecasters – Live…Raw…In Germany (Ohne Filter)

Pharaoh Records 63-38001 (2000)

John Jorgenson (guitar, keyboards)
Jerry Donahue (guitar)
Will Ray (guitar)
John Davis (bass)
Steve Duncan (drums)

On July 2nd, 1998, The Hellecasters convened in Baden-Baden, Germany to tape an appearance for the live TV music show "Ohne Filter". This was one of the only three shows that the band played together all year, although you wouldn't know it from the rollicking set. Drawing on material from their first three CDs, the band shows those unlucky enough to have not caught these axemasters live before what they have been missing - serious guitar playing, a slammin' rhythm section and material that is in turns beautiful, fun, haunting and brilliant.

1. Ohne Filter Theme (0:23)
2. Introduction (German Spoken) (1:26)
3. Inspector Gadget (2:43)
4. Highlander Boogie (2:36)
5. Danger Man (4:19)
6. Son Becomes Father (5:21)
7. Ghosts Of 42nd Street (5:30)
8. Peter Gunn (4:22)
9. Went On A 12 Bar Bender In My Home Town (3:44)
10. Sweet Dreams (5:17)
11. Thanks + Band Intro + Orange Blossom Special (16:53)
12. Bucket Of Fish (5:23)

Re: Bob Dylan Copyright Extension Series

Dear lemonflag,

as far as I know the volumes you search for (66-68) don't exist - most likely because Bob's tapes from these years in seclusion basically consisted of the Basement Tapes & related stuff, all copyrighted long since.
Everything taped and not erased should be collected in The Bootleg Series, Vol's 11 & 15.

Best regards, Strohmian

Desmond Dekker: Double Dekker, Expanded Edition

https://www.discogs.com/release/13419873-Desmond-Dekker-Double-Dekker

Making his mark on the international recording scene with a series of global hits in the late Sixties and early Seventies, Desmond Dekker enjoyed success on a scale no other Jamaican act had experienced.

So in 1972, when the singer left the world’s leading reggae record company, Trojan Records, to join the newly launched rival Creole, the move sent shockwaves through the UK’s music industry.

In response, Trojan gathered some of the singer’s biggest hits alongside rare and previously unreleased material from the archive, which they issued on the aptly-titled double LP set, “Double Dekker”.

Much to the chagrin of Creole, the collection swiftly became one of Trojan’s biggest selling long players of 1973, its release eclipsing the singer’s recently recorded work for his new label.

Now, 45 years after its original release, “Double Dekker” is finally available once more, with the track- listing augmented with six rare bonus tracks.

Avoiding any cross-over of material with companion volumes, “You Can Get It If You Really Want” (DBCD015) and “Action! & Intensified” (DBCDD025), the collection ensures Desmond Dekker’s entire Leslie Kong-produced rock steady and reggae output is available for the much-missed performer’s fans.

[...] Double Dekker, in this new form, does an able job of mopping up the man’s Beverley recordings into one attractive package. Though Desmond would have another couple of hits in the mid 70s he was really at his prime from 1969 to 1971, when pretty much no-one could touch him. The original King of Reggae never really turned out a dud during those years and the proof is here for all to enjoy. -Ian Canty

Desmond Dekker - You Can Get It If You Really Want, Expanded Edition

https://www.discogs.com/release/13420218-Desmond-Dekker-You-Can-Get-It-If-You-Really-Want

Soon after Desmond Dekker’s ‘You Can Get It If You Really Want’ had climbed to number 2 in UK’s pop chart in summer of 1970, Trojan released an album of the same title, which quickly became one of the company’s biggest ever selling long players. Yet despite its popularity, the LP has, until now, remained unavailable on CD.

At long last, the oversight has been addressed with this long overdue set, which is augmented by 11 bonus tracks comprising Dekker’s complete early 1970s output for Creole Records.

Including three major UK chart hits in ‘You Can Get It If You Really Want’, ‘Pickney Gal’ and ‘Sing A Little Song’ this is a must for all fans of the much-missed singer-songwriter and of classic reggae sounds.

[...] This is a good reissue of another key Reggae album that has never previously made it onto CD. The sleeve notes are pretty good on DD’s career, but I would have personally like a bit more info on the album itself. But I’m nit-picking really, the LP sounds great and the later material from the Creole years show that Dekker was far from washed up as his heyday drew to a close, that magnificent vocal talent was undimmed by time. You Can Get It If You Really Want It is essential for the ranks of hardcore Ska/Reggae/Desmond Dekker fans who will be delighted that is record has finally been reissued all these years on. If you are more dabbler in Reggae matters, give this a listen, you might well be charmed too. There were few better than Desmond Dekker at his peak. -Ian Canty
