Simon Dupree & The Big Sound – Without Reservations

Tower Records ST-5097 (USA 1967)

Derek Shulman, Ray Shulman, Phil Shulman, Peter O’Flaherty, Eric Hine, Tony Ransley.

From some site:

---I attended one of their concerts for Radio Scotland in July 1967, when they were joined for a tour of Scotland by a keyboards player named Reginald Dwight. When asked to join the band on a permanent basis, he declined and told them he intended to change his stage name and start a solo career. The name he mentioned made the rest of the band laugh a lot: “Elton John”. The rest is history.---

Simon Dupree & The Big Sound evolved into successful progressive rock band Gentle Giant.

1. Medley: a) 60 Minutes Of Your Love b) A Lot Of Love (4:37)
2. Love (3:06)
3. Get Off My Bach (2:03)
4. There's A Little Picture Playhouse (2:15)
5. Day Time, Night Time (2:17)
6. I See The Light (2:19)
7. What Is Soul (2:36)
8. Teacher, Teacher (2:06)
9. Amen (2:27)
10. Who Cares (2:35)
11. Reservations (2:26)

Thanks in advance for any help with either request.

The name of the album you are looking for is "The Midas Touch". The name of the artist is also "The Midas Touch". Here it is:

It's funny how some bands get lumped into the alt-country scene and elsewhere when people can't figure out where the hell else to put them. Shivaree is one such band.

"Shivaree was an Americana and alternative country band from the United States founded in 1997, consisting of Ambrosia Parsley (vocals), Danny McGough (keyboard), and Duke McVinnie (guitar). Shivaree is best known for the song "Goodnight Moon", released in 1999, which was featured in the tv series Dawson's Creek, and in films such as Kill Bill: Volume 2, and Silver Linings Playbook. Shivaree officially disbanded in 2007, after a very brief promotional tour of their fourth album, Tainted Love: Mating Calls and Fight Songs, a cover album."

The Chosen Few – The Trojan Albums Collection

https://www.discogs.com/release/15691809-The-Chosen-Few-The-Trojan-Albums-Collection

Soon after forming in the late Sixties, the Chosen Few became widely regarded as one the most accomplished harmony groups on the Jamaican music scene, as demonstrated by a series of hits for local producers, Derrick Harriott and ‘Prince’ Tony. A subsequent collaboration with Florida-based ex-pat, Noel Williams aka King Sporty spawned the reggae-funk masterpiece, ‘In Miami’ featuring backing from leading soul outfit K.C. & the Sunshine Band.

The enduring popularity of the quartet, comprising Franklyn Spence and the three Browns - Busty, Noel and Errol - was demonstrated by the release of three acclaimed long players between 1973 and 1975, all of which were issued in the UK by the country’s premier Jamaican music record company, Trojan Records.

This trio of albums form the basis of this superb collection of classic soulful reggae sounds, which is further enhanced by 11 bonus tracks from the period.

[...] My personal preference is for a harder, tougher, strutting style of roots reggae. However, there is much to enjoy here. The Chosen Few made records people liked, and sold in numbers as a result. The vocal skill of display on The Trojan Albums Collection is second to none, and the production of Harriott, Robinson and Williams give each record smooth qualities. There was another side to reggae in the 1970s, away from the dreadlocked, rastafari rooted vibe. It may be lighter and poppier, but is very much worth checking out to get a full appreciation of the sounds on offer from Jamaica at the time. -Paul Matts
