Joni Mitchell - Miles Of Aisles
(1974, Asylum) WLP

2LPs, great set capturing a live Joni Mitchell in her prime. Listening to sides 2 & 3.

Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home
(1965, Columbia) -1G/-1D 2nd pressing with "360 Sound" in White

fun fact: according to Wikipedia, the cat on the cover is Dylan's and named Rolling Stone.

Grateful Dead - Europe '72
(1972, Warner Bros) WLP -1A/-1A Artisan symbol in the deadwax

listening to Record 2, sides 3 & 4. a nice live record with prominent low frequencies. I've heard the phrase "Phil bombs" refer to Lesh's bass playing, seems accurate!

Happy Thanksgiving SLF. You've been busy....

Linda Ronstadt
Heart Like A Wheel

Mad River - s/t
(1968, Capitol) Promo stamped LP jacket

a surprising find earlier this year. described by allmusic as sounding like an extremely dark version of Quicksilver Messenger Service with a bit of Country Joe & the Fish's minor-key melodies thrown in.

Tom Fogarty - Excalibur
(1972, Fantasy)

w/ Jerry Garcia on Lead guitar, Merl Saunders keyboards, John Kahn bass. lots of nice playing by Jerry Garcia here.

John Fogerty - Centerfield
(1985, Warner Bros) Promo stamped cover

interesting songs here overcome the drum machine synth 80s sounds at times. "I know it's true cause I saw it on T.V". I have his new autobiography Fortunate Son on loan from the library - don't know if I'll find time to read it before it has to go back though.

Shirley Scott - Workin'
(1966, Prestige)

includes a nice version of Nat Adderly's Work Song. w/ Roy Haynes, drums.

 

[Northwinds]

Original Japanese Mercury pressing complete w/ the bilingual foldover lyric sheet, 5 photos with messages on the back of them and the Cherry Bomb insert sheet. Such a killer record. I miss simple music like this, just pure rock 'n roll

 

[Miracle Mile]

Original Japanese Mercury pressing complete w/ the bilingual foldover lyric sheet, 5 photos with messages on the back of them and the Cherry Bomb insert sheet....

Those days are gone forever.. (having a look at how Joan Jett looks now...)

 

[laatsch55]

Ohhhhhhh.......buzzkill...

 

[Northwinds]

That's why they call it Rock 'n Roll, she's a carpet muncher anyway, she tried to sleep with my son Jake's Mom back in the 90s. We know her family

 

[Miracle Mile]

We know her family...

Ow Dear!

Can you show me the quickest way out of here?

 

[Northwinds]

Joan is good people as long as she is not drinking, have not seen her since 1999 because I moved to Connecticut. She still calls Jake's mom occasionally and she is doing ok last I heard

 

[Miracle Mile]

Always good to read people are doing OK. (rock & roll can be a hard living at some point)

Steve Miller Band - Number 5
(1970, Capitol)

a favorite from the early Steve Miller Band LPs. w/ Nicky Hopkins, Lee Michaels, Ben Sidran.

Nick Lowe - Party Of One
