…and now for something completely different! 2939 - 2025

These damned religious fanatics, politicians, warlords, and so on... They all bring death and destruction, even though they know they are just as superfluous as telephone disinfectants and hairdressers! - RYP

@Earthbound,

Question RE your Soulseek entries for "The R&B Years, Volumes 3 and 4; DeLuxe": Vol. 3 contains only 17 tracks while vol.4 has 24. Glitch or error? Do you by chance have volumes 1&2 as I'm unable to find those.

But my bigger question concerns the origins of that series. As you probably know, Official released volumes 1-11 of a series called "Hidden Gems" with the same artwork as the "R&B Years" titles you posted. Same company [Official]? Thanks!

- Ron

Not sure that ther's ever been a request for any Clodagh Rodgers before, so maybe a first.

I've been looking for a track - Loving Cup which was out as a single in 1977. It was also on the Save Me album.

If anyone will admit to having it and is willing to share that'd be great.

Cheers, ceedee

Berni,
Thank you so much for all the Western Swang (sic) - a mighty piece of work! That's my Christmas me-time sorted; I like to group them back in their original iterations (sad, I know). I have a few done, and already The Carolyn Sills Combo and Joshua Hedley are standing out. Thanks again,
Joe in Dublin.

“Letter to L.A.” (on “Live at Liberty Lunch” from 1990): not necessarily typical for Joe Ely, but for me an all-time favorite song, indestructible 12 minutes of grandeur, especially with David Grissom's guitar part. Magical. RIP. Thhnks a lot for reminding and reminiscing, Strohmian. Best, TC

Berni said...

Joe in Dublin,
Thanks, much appreciated. Joshua Hedley's Western Swing album is terrific. So much so that it's what turned my attention lately to the genre. (His previous albums explored other genres like honky tonk, etc.) Did you catch the Willie Nelson Western Swing I posted before this project?

Capt Deli said...

@zigzagwanderer - thanx for the Psychomuzak

And more interesting read keep a-coming. Thanks so much TMOG.

Thanks for the hot dances Richie.

Earthbound said...

@Ron,

I downloaded all of those volumes from right here on TwilightZone! several years ago. The individual who posted them went by the name "wally k". I don't know what became of him but he is the only person that I know who could answer your questions because (so far as i know) he was the compiler of those volumes.

Berni,
Yes, got the (Big) Swingin' Willie. I had much of it already, along with Asleep at the Wheel, which is why it is so great to get to hear new, exciting artists and bands. Knocky Parker Rules!
