"Nuggets of the Golden Age of Gospel" 1945-1958 [Disc 1 of 4] 2009

This wonderful four-disc, 105-track box of postwar Afro-American gospel releases from the 1940s and 1950s was compiled by record collector and gospel historian Opal Louis Nations, and it perfectly captures what was surely a golden age for black gospel. Gospel as we now know it emerged in the South in the early '30s, an outgrowth of the right to assemble and the advent of gospel songwriters like Thomas A. Dorsey (who had sung previously in the secular arena as Georgia Tom), who brought the blues to church, tossed in some ragtime piano rhythms, and almost single-handedly created the genre to the point that his compositions were simply known as "Dorseys." Then, in the early '40s, performers like Sister Rosetta Tharpe added a kind of theatricality (not to mention electric guitar) to the mix, and this generous box chronicles the confluence of all this. There is so much to marvel at here, including the opening track, "Walk Around," by the Five Soul Stirrers, Tharpe's jazzy, bluesy "Didn't It Rain" (complete with her concise electric guitar runs), the Five Blind Boys of Alabama's beautiful and haunting "Mother's Song," Sam Cooke & the Soul Stirrers' intimate "Pilgrim of Sorrow" (the take included here has some off microphone conversation that only adds to the song's feel of immediacy), Lou Rawls & the Pilgrim Travelers' doo wop-inflected (before doo wop was even a named genre) "Come Home," and Sister Marie Knight's uptown jazz version of "Trouble in Mind," a song that had long been performed as a secular blues, albeit with a high degree of spiritual overtones. Gospel, of course, traveled back to the secular side of the tracks when soul arose in the 1960s, but the roots of that explosion are here in this delightful collection. --Steve Leggett, AllMusic

FRED NEIL "The Many Sides Of Fred Neil"

This CD is a definitive look at Neil's classic Capitol recordings. Included are the three albums he recorded for Capitol, 'Fred Neil' (later re-released as Everybody's Talkin'), Sessions and the live album Other Side of This Life, plus the A & B sides.For many, the name Fred Neil will be familiar only as that belonging to the songwriter of the modern classic "Everybody's Talkin'," or perhaps "Candyman," "The Dolphins," or "Other Side of This Life," songs that Roy Orbison, Tim Buckley, and the Jefferson Airplane, respectively, recorded. However, Neil's influence extends much farther. John Sebastian, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Bob Dylan all claimed him as an influence, since he blended traditional and contemporary folk, blues, rock, gospel, Indian, and pop influences into a distinctive, idiosyncratic style. His music was not only influential, it was quite rich on its own terms and some of the best music of its era. Unfortunately, since Neil chose a life of seclusion in 1971, disappearing from both recording and performing, his work was neglected. Remedying the situation, The Many Sides bypasses his Elektra material, instead offering a complete summary of his Capitol recordings, including his three albums for the label (Fred Neil, Sessions, Other Side of This Life), both sides of a non-LP single with the Nashville Street Singers, and six unreleased cuts. It's a long overdue compilation and one that certainly stands as a definitive portrait of an influential and criminally underappreciated folk-rock figure. After listening to The Many Sides of Fred Neil, it makes sense that Neil turned into a recluse -- this is moody, haunting music, unlike much of the work of his contemporaries. In particular, his eponymous album boasts challenging, innovative arrangments that remain fresh and startling to this day. The rest of his work may be a little uneven in comparison, but it's frequently compelling and often matches its heights. Most importantly, The Many Sides of Fred Neil grants Neil his proper place in folk-rock history, confirming his unique vision and talent. (Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Allmusic)Finally, a record label has the sense to reissue folk-era singer-songwriter Fred Neil's three visionary Capitol albums on CD. Born in St. Petersburg, Florida, in 1937, Neil was a major fixture on the early-'60s Greenwich Village folk scene. If he's known for anything today, it's for his songwriting (via Nilsson's AM-radio hit of "Everybody's Talkin,'" Jefferson Airplane's manic cover of "Other Side of This Life," or Tim Buckley's lovely version of "The Dolphins"). Neil's songs are remarkable, the sort of ponderous, moody, complex music reminiscent of the best of Nick Drake, Richard Thompson, and Leonard Cohen. His sound was characterized by nimble 12-string guitar playing; the ability to blend Indian, gospel, rock, and blues into folk music; and an impossibly deep, reverberant baritone voice, sort of like Johnny Cash with a midrange, control, and chops. The material on the two CDs that comprise Many Sides was recorded between 1967 and '71 and presents the entirety of Neil's mature work, adding six unreleased tracks and one historically interesting, hootenanny-imprisoned single. Though there are spots of languorous fooling around and stoned goofiness (notably on the lackadaisical Sessions), the takes are mostly grand, the production ranging from inventively subtle to stripped-down live versions. Fans will also want to scoop up the imports of Neil's '65 debut, Bleecker & MacDougal, and his folknik collaboration with Vince Martin, Tear Down the Walls. Last seen in Texas--or was that Florida?--the music world has not heard from Neil since the '70s. --Mike McGonigal

Son House "At Home" The Legendary 1969 Rochester Sessions - 1992

Recorded at his home in September of 1969 by blues enthusiast Steve Lobb, Son House turns in one of the most vital and compelling performances available from his late career comeback. While the 1965 Columbia Records sessions require explanations about his age and extended retirement, there is no excuse necessary for the contents of this CD. Opening with the 20-minute long "Son's Blues," he radiates explosive power, his voice surging and his guitar strings snapping against the fretboard in a slow, fiery performance. The tension and sustained strength of this one piece makes this CD far more valuable as a specimen of Son's best work than any of the CBS material -- this is the perfect companion to his inimitable Alan Lomax and Paramount recordings of the 1930s and early 1940s. Nothing else here quite matches the opening track, although Son still seems in far better form than he did on some of his better-known comeback recordings. --Bruce Eder, AllMusic (4,5/5 stars)When back in 1964 Nick Perls, Dick Waterman and Phil Spiro searched the Mississippi Delta region for clues as to the whereabouts of legendary blues recording artist Son House, they first drew a blank. Finally, in Robinsonville - where Robert Johnson first played blues in a juke joint - they got a lead which eventually took them right back to New York State. In June of that year, they arrived at Son House's home in Rochester's riverfront Corn Hill neighborhood, almost a thousand miles from Mississippi! Son had lived here since 1943, soon after being recorded for the Library of Congress by Alan Lomax. Son had not performed blues for many years and was completely unaware of the international enthusiasm for the 10 sides he recorded for Paramount in 1930 and those he later made for Lomax. Although a little rusty at first, after practicing for some weeks he gradually relearned his old guitar skills and his voice strengthened to the point where he was able to play concerts again. "When he played, his eyes rolled back in his head and he went somewhere else. Whether it was Robinsonville in the '30's or wherever, he transported himself back without any trickery and became the essence of Delta. He would then finish the song, blink his eyes, and then re-accustom himself to where he was at the time." - Dick Waterman, remembering Son House. By the time John Hammond of Columbia Records decided to record him in April 1965, he was singing and playing with such power and conviction that the years seemed to have rolled away, with some of performances rivaling those for the Library of National Congress twenty years before. The informal recordings of Son and his wife (who plays tambourine and gives a spoken message) on this CD were made by Steve Lobb at their Rochester home, just prior to Son's second European tour. They remind us of the remarkable return to music of one of the very greatest of all the many Mississippi blues singers.

Peter Tosh and Friends "Black Dignity, Early Works of the Steppin' Razor" 2005

This is a great collection of rare Peter Tosh alongside various Jamaican ensembles and vocal groups. The 24 roots tracks featured on this collection capture Tosh singing and performing many of his early Studio 1 and Intel-Diplo classics.Among those featured are The Wailers,Winston Wright,The New Generation,The Soulnotes,and various Jamaican All-star rhythm sections.The Trojan label has been remastering many gems from the vaults, everyone from Jimmy Cliff to Alton Ellis have been showcased by Trojan,and this collection rises high alongside those classic editions. The various tracks are remastered very nicely and the booklet and vintage photos details the history of Reggae music as it relates to the Bush Doctor, Peter Tosh. --Amazon customer reviewBlack Dignity is by no means the only Peter Tosh collection anyone should own, since it covers a tumultuous sliver of time. The tracks here are Trojan Records-associated songs that come from the early '70s, a time when Tosh was issuing solo singles out of resentment for the slow pace his band, the Wailers, was taking and resentment for the back seat he was taking to the Wailers' leader, Bob Marley. You miss the earlier Tosh carving out a solo career and all the post-Wailers success that was to come, but the Wailers' most distrustful and urgent member didn't issue anything without a purpose. The singles here are all important and as the excellent, career-spanning liner notes by Rick Glanvill point out, the producers Tosh was working with were in their prime, most notably Joe Gibbs. It was a producer/singer match made in heaven with Gibbs tempering Tosh's venom with sweet but very certain soul. On the Gibbs tracks it feels like that tense moment right before the kettle is about boil, something you'll feel when the excellent "Maga Dog" comes through the speakers. Black Dignity fills a void just by including the heralded Gibbs version of the track, but it also includes no less than four mostly faceless dub versions of the song that contain little or no involvement from Tosh (to be fair, the cover does mention "and friends"). The wild "Here Comes the Judge" -- which is followed by two of its dubs -- and the earthy, nyahbinghi-flavored "(Earth's) Rightful Ruler" are also crucial cuts the collection makes easy to obtain, the latter featuring an appearance by a young, very different-sounding U-Roy. The Lee "Scratch " Perry tracks are the Tosh-centered cuts he did with the Wailers and do a good job of representing the singer's contribution to the group. "Brand New Second Hand" shows what the Wailers were like with Tosh at the controls and makes a great argument that there should have been more of it. The track list doesn't flow as well as one would hope, but this is a more academic outing without any best-of disguise. Taking that into account and looking at the scant bit of Tosh Trojan has in its vaults, one can't help but respect how well Black Dignity brings the singer's "lost years" into the light. Start elsewhere if you're a newcomer, because this is a gap-filling gift for hardcore fans. --David Jeffries, AllMusic (Rating: 3,5/5 stars)

Gil Scott-Heron "Spirits" 1994

Hi Everyone, I know that I shall can be hung for what I say, but this is my Gil Scott-Heron's favorite album, and one of those I would take on a desert island. Enjoy!!! - Magic Kaic's MusicWith Spirits, Gil Scott-Heron made a triumphant return to the studio after a 12-year absence. Though the politically charged R&B singer's voice had deteriorated, much of his soulfulness comes through. His songwriting is consistently excellent, and songs ranging from "Message to the Messengers" (which advises young rap artists to use their power wisely) to "Work for Peace" leave no doubt that his sociopolitical observations are as sharp as ever. One of the most riveting cuts is "The Other Side," an extended remake of his early-'70s classic "Home Is Where the Hatred Is" (which describes a drug addict's struggle). The East Coaster had been battling addiction himself during his absence from recording, and this heartfelt song isn't for the squeamish. Scott-Heron had successfully dabbled in jazz over the years, and in fact, among the CD's many strong points are the lyrics he adds to John Coltrane's "Spirits." One cannot help but wish Scott-Heron still had a great voice to go with this material, but even so, Spirits is powerful listening. - Review by Alex Hendersontrax:

Yip Yip Coyote "FIFI" 1985

When I Dream Of The West...Yip Yip Coyote were part of the early 80's "cow-punk" eruption. Explosion would be overstatement -- the movement more or less fizzled as "new wave" died and what's commonly called "alternative" these days emerged with its harder edged, less-produced sound. In the UK this minor movement itself was more an offshoot of the new "glam" and "fashion" rock style epitomized by Culture Club, Hayzi Fantayzi and Wide Boy Awake among others.
Yip Yip Coyote never had a genuine US release of their own save an appearance on the soundtrack for BACHELOR PARTY, but their first LP and singles DID appear in the UK on Illegal Records and I.R.S.
The line-up consisted of two constants: Fifi Coyote on Vocals and Carl Evans (ex-Chefs) on Guitar. Other "regulars" were Eg White on Bass and Volker VonHoff on Drums. This line-up was fleshed out by occasional inputs by Carrie Booth (Keyboards), Harry Pitch (Harmonica) and "Luis" (Percussion)... The UK records are nicely packaged (photos and design work by Nic Cole, Miss Moss, Fifi Coyote herself and others). The cuts on the UK LP were produced by a veritable who's who of 80's music producers: Anne Dudley (Art Of Noise), Tony Mansfield, the mysterious Jesse James and David Ruffy...
It is unfortunate there was never a US release of this material, as the highly danceable rhythms and infectious melodies may have helped prolong the "cow punk" movement on this side of the Atlantic.Yip Yip Coyote:

Carl Evans - guitar, backing vocals; Fifi - vocals; Volker Vonhoff - drums; Eg White - drums

The Youngbloods "Ride The Wind" 1971

Hi Everyone, a cool live recorded in 1969 and released in 1971, the Youngbloods were then a trio, not exactly a power trio... But their music is as a hot summer wind, which they invite us to ride. Enjoy that vinyl rip!!! - Magic Kaic's MusicThis live disc followed up Rock Festival (1970), another batch of live recordings. However, Ride the Wind (1971) is far from simply a stop-gap effort between studio discs. The trio of Jesse Colin Young (bass/kazoo/rhythm guitar), Banana (guitar/piano), and Joe Bauer (drums) are definitely in their element on these half-dozen sides. In much the same way as their Marin County contemporaries, the Grateful Dead, the Youngbloods' live experience allowed the band to stretch out and take their improvisational interplay to a level that is merely hinted at on their studio sides. The disc begins with a nearly ten-minute version of the title track, which was initially issued on Elephant Mountain (1970). Banana really shines, as his laid-back electric piano runs are ably complemented by some interesting contributions from both Young and Bauer. The centerpiece is the extended instrumental interplay that ebbs and flows as the groove builds incrementally. The happy-go-lucky "Sugar Babe" sticks closely to the up-tempo ragtime version featured on Earth Music (1967). The band returns to Elephant Mountain for an easygoing and pastoral rendering of "Sunlight" that again allows for some well-tempered improvisation. The cover of Fred Neil's "The Dolphin" is another not-to-be-missed epic, as the Youngbloods never issued a studio version and once again a strong jazz influence dictates the performance's overall vibe. "Get Together" was the band's best-known side and still holds up in what is a spirited reading with just enough alteration to make it a worthwhile inclusion. Ride the Wind concludes with a final track from Elephant Mountain, as the optimistic "Beautiful" is given a lengthy and funky workout. When paired with the harder-edged Rock Festival, this live volume gives listeners another aural vantage point from which to rediscover the Youngbloods' unique country-rock leanings. - Review by Lindsay Planertrax:

The Fuzztones "Braindrops" 1991

Sizzling 1991 studio album from the first family of Fuzz. Very psychedelic and underrated! One of their best efforts for sure! Rudi's voice has a beautiful Jim Morrison style barritone quality to it, and at times, the album reminds me of some of The Doors better work. In fact, the album contains an excellent cover of the not-so-well-known Doors song "I Looked at You."Rudi Protrudi's Fuzztones bounce back with an acid-drenched mess of garage grunge psychedelia. Mindbending moments like the dangerous charm of the opening "Third Times The Charm," and forthcoming 45 "Romilar D," paint a lurid lysergic picture of sixties-style psych with strokes of wild originality and present day Pebbles-dashed crazed pop. The sound isn't too dissimilar to that of their previous two studio albums, however there is an alomst dignified maturity in this set. A further dozen reasons to take note of the U.S.A's greatest export since the Cramps. One trip thta's worth taking. This collection sees them at their very best. - Spike Sommer SOUNDSThe Fuzztones:

Rudi Protrudi: vocals, vox & gretch guitars / Mad Mike Czekaj: drums, vocals / Jake Cavaliere: vox organ / Chris Harlock: vox phantom bass / Phil Arriagada: vox phantom 12-string guitar

Features guest appearances by Jacqui Lynn (vocals), Rahul Sariputra (sitar), Sean Bonniwell (The Music Machine) and Arthur Lee (Love) both backing vocals on "All The Kings Horses".

"75 Pumpin' Piano Greats"

Jerry Lee Lewis changed Rock‘n’Roll. Hitherto, R&R records had been predominantly either sax or guitar dominated, piano having largely been relegated to a supporting role, as part of the rhythm section. Even Little Richard’s strident piano was usually buried under layers of riffing saxes. But after Jerry Lee, things were noticeably different – and on the back of his success, a whole lot of piano-pounders were to enjoy a new, reinvigorated lease of life.

Of course, Boogie-Woogie went right back to the birth of recorded sound, a staple element of Blues repertoire, aptly demonstrated herein by Pete Johnson, Camille Howard, Little Willie Littlefield, Amos Milburn and Cecil Gant, whilst Merrill E.Moore, Chuck Miller, Moon Mullican and Freddie Slack present equally-powerful white, Countrified interpretations. Jerry Lee, of course, brought Boogie-Woogie to Rock & Roll, but guys like Owen Bradley, Roy Hall, Floyd Cramer – and particularly, Chuck Berry’s collaborator, Johnnie Johnson – sure knew how to lay down a rockin’ solo or two, as they so readily demonstrate.

Fats Domino’s easy-rollin’, New Orleans style adapted readily to rock’n’roll, whereas his near-neighbour Professor Longhair trod a somewhat funkier path, sticking closer to R&B – as did guys like Champion Jack Dupree, Huey ‘Piano’ Smith, Ike Turner, Rosco Gordon and Lloyd Glenn. Ray Charles music crossed so many genres he was virtually impossible to categorise, as was, perhaps to a lesser extent, Piano Red. All these and more are featured on this unique 3-CD set, which presents 75 wild, piano-propelled slices of R&R, R&B, Boogie-Woogie, Blues, Country and raw hillbilly music.

Featuring more than thirty different piano-pumpers, the pace never lets up and all musical boxes are well and truly ticked. The booklet is laden with 50s vintage pics and memorabilia, and also includes detailed liner notes from R&R guru Stuart Coleman.

WET WILLIE "Keep On Smilin’" (1974) "Dixie Rock" (1975)

Keep on Smilin' is the definitive Wet Willie studio album, bluesier than a lot of their other work, and much of it also somewhat more laid-back. Beginning with "Country Side of Life," the band sounds tight, tuned, and in top form. Their playing is clean and crisp, and the vocals exude a bold confidence. The hit title track is a compelling reggae-country meld that's one of the more interesting and long-wearing country-rock hits of its period. It's surrounded by gospel-flavored material and also one of the neater Stax-influenced tracks ever put down by a white band, "Soul Sister," which is also a great showcase for the Williettes. Other highlights include the acoustic country ballad "Alabama," a major change of pace for this band with some clever lyrical conceits; the ultra-funky "Soul Jones" (which manages to work in a quote from the Allman Brothers), and the soulful rocker "Lucy Was in Trouble," which became a key part of the group's concert sets. (Bruce Eder, Allmusic)The follow-up to Wet Willie's breakthrough benchmark release, Keep On Smilin', didn't match its predecessor in sales, and began a commercial decline from which they never recovered. But although there's nothing as catchy as the previous album's title track, Dixie Rock is a worthy successor and another excellent yet underrated entry in the band's catalog. With their picture dominating the back cover, backing singers the Williettes (Ella Avery and Donna Hall) receive featured treatment, and their contribution adds substantial gospel flavor to the group's approach. Avery's duet with frontman Jimmy Hall on "Mama Don't Raise No Fools" is one of the disc's highlights, and the stripped-down version of Albert Brumly's "He Set Me Free" could have come directly off a traditional spiritual album. But "Leona" (a minor hit single), is pure greasy Southern singalong funk and rock that, along with the title cut, slots into Willie's established sound. The R&B-drenched "It's Gonna Stop Rainin' Soon," featuring sublime slide work from Ricky Hirsch and Jimmy Hall's mournful harp along with the deep Delta blues of "Jailhouse Moan," help make this one of the band's most cohesive works, although it takes a few spins for their charms to be appreciated. Those who enjoy Wet Willie's gritty Southern soul will find lots to like on this low-key, predominantly hitless gem. (Allmusic)trax:

The Plimsouls "One Night In America" 1989

Hi Everyone (and a very special one to RYP), this band had class, they got Soul, they were Rock 'n' Roll. Enjoy that vinyl rip!!! - Magic Kaic's MusicOn more than one occasion, Peter Case has said rather pointedly that he never considered either the Nerves or the Plimsouls to be power pop bands -- as far as Case was concerned, he was playing pure and simple rock & roll, and one spin of One Night in America proves the man's point better than words ever could. No one seems to know how, when, or where One Night in America was recorded (Case guesses it was somewhere in Cleveland in his liner notes, and the set list suggests it was sometime after the release of Everywhere at Once), but the tape speaks for itself as far as the Plimsouls' strengths are concerned. One Night in America is the sound of a rough and rowdy rock & roll band conversant in blues, the British Invasion, and straight-ahead barroom boogie, and on this night they were firing on all cylinders, and if the recording quality is a bit shaky in spots, these 12 songs demonstrate a power and streetwise swagger the Plimsouls didn't always achieve in the studio. Eddie Muñoz and Peter Case's guitars cut like switchblades, David Pahoa and Lou Ramirez are a rhythm section with a swing like Joe Louis, and Case sings like a man possessed, making everything from "A Million Miles Away" to "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" sound like it could hold the keys to the universe. As good as the Plimsouls' original two studio albums were (and they were very good indeed), One Night in America truly captures the band in its element, rockin' out on the stage of a club somewhere, and if you subscribe to Keith Richards' theory that on any given night nearly any band could be the greatest rock & roll band on Earth with the right mixture of passion, sweat, and inspiration, chances are on the nameless and dateless night when these tapes rolled, the Plimsouls held the title for 40 glorious minutes. Dig it. - Review by Mark Demingtrax:
