I hope everyone is having a happy holiday season leading into New Years.

Offering:
A slew of the records I needed for my 1972 Bubbling Under Etc. project came in just before Christmas and I was able to rip them yesterday and get them added to my collection. And now I pass them on to you. Enjoy!


1972 - Bobby Whitlock, Johnny Pearson, Michael Allen, Smile, Cy Coleman Co-op, Tom Rush.zip
https://www.imagenetz.de/oVWmA


This zip contains the following singles:

Bobby Whitlock - Song For Paula (3:14) b/w Where There's A Will There's A Way (2:51) Single Version
A little bit of rock, one ballad and one rocker.
https://www.discogs.com/master/1326888-Bobby-Whitlock-Song-For-Paula

Johnny Pearson & His Orchestra - The Masterpiece (2:37) b/w Lazy Silhouettes (3:10)
This appears to be a Moog orchestrated version of the theme from Masterpiece Theater.
https://www.discogs.com/master/790176-Johnny-Pearson-His-Orchestra-The-Masterpiece-Lazy-Silhouettes

Michael Allen - The Big Parade (2:50) b/w Rosemary Blue (3:11)
Technically this single was from 1975, however the version The Big Parade that was released in 1975 was the same as the one released in 1972. The Big Parade was written Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield and reminds me of the song 'Those Were The Days' which was made popular by Mary Hopkin in 1968.
https://www.discogs.com/master/620022-Michael-Allen-The-Big-Parade

Smile - One Night Stand (2:39) b/w Tonight (I Gotta Make It Right) (3:10)
More Blood, Sweat and Tears influenced rock. One Night Stand reminds me of something Foghat would have released if they had horns in their band.
https://www.discogs.com/master/748487-Smile-One-Night-Stand

The Cy Coleman Co-op - What Are Heavy (2:49) b/w When It Comes To Lovin' (2:29)
It's classified in Discogs as soul. What Are Heavy made an imprint in the Record World 101-150 charts in 1972, peaking at 104.
https://www.discogs.com/master/1056293-The-Cy-Coleman-Co-op-What-Are-Heavy-

Tom Rush - Kids These Days (3:19) Single Version b/w Seems The Songs (3:39)
Some country influenced tunes. Kids These Days reminds me of something Leon Russell would have done, while Seems The Songs is a sad tune about how the world around him is affecting what he's been writing songs about.
https://www.discogs.com/master/1230388-Tom-Rush-Kids-These-Days

Requests:
Still working on my 1972 Bubbling Under Etc project. Here are some singles that I'm hoping someone out there has. Any help is appreciated.

Thundermama - Thundermama (3:10)
https://www.discogs.com/master/795909-Thundermama-Thundermama

The State Dept. – Wild Honey Part 1 (2:09 Part 1 Single Edit)
https://www.discogs.com/master/894132-The-State-Dept-Wild-Honey
Every version I've found for this seems to be a rip from YouTube where they patched together Parts 1 & 2 and in the
process cutting off the fade out on Part 1.

Cold Blood – Down To The Bone (3:10 Single Edit)
https://www.discogs.com/release/4537090-Cold-Blood-Down-To-The-Bone

Dianne Davidson – Delta Dawn (3:07 Single Edit)
https://www.discogs.com/release/3929015-Dianne-Davidson-Sympathy-Delta-Dawn

Joan Baez – Will The Circle Be Unbroken (3:27 Single Edit)
https://www.discogs.com/master/800736-Joan-Baez-Will-The-Circle-Be-Unbroken-Just-A-Closer-Walk-With-Thee

Potliquor – Waitin' For Me At The River (3:45 Single Edit)
https://www.discogs.com/release/7827450-Potliquor-Levee-Blues-Waitin-For-Me-At-The-River

Hey yeah an excellent idea!
Lets just delete all the songs we don't like in an album CD and post it!?
Yep too so some of you blog police wont think I'm rude.
Thanks to RiCK SAUNDERS for providing the missing track!

Good evening, everyone. I would be very grateful if someone could help me find the following two Austrian albums. They are by Marianne Mendt: “Wie a Glock'n...” https://www.discogs.com/de/master/332817-Marianne-Mendt-Wie-A-Glockn and by Georg Danzer: “Unter die Haut” https://www.discogs.com/de/master/488629-Georg-Danzer-Unter-Die-Haut I am also interested in other works from the 1970s by both artists. Thank you in advance for your time and effort. Best regards, Mike

Glad to hear you're enjoying Helen Merrill. I'd heard the name before but once i heard her with Clifford Brown I needed more. Her later stuff is good too but like all aging singers her voice isn't as pretty as when young. But her older voice might have more emotional content (arguably.)

Clifford also took me to Dinah Washington. I didnt realize i was such a jazz vocal fan. Probably the influence of my late father in law.

I too have been wondering. There was a huge volume of entries in a late November or early December post offered as an early Xmas gift. Giulia noted she would be absent for the entire month of December. That last "drop" was accessible for several days. I visited the site a week or so ago and found a message that the blog no longer exists. I'm hoping it returns in the new year but fear that it won't.
