Patricia Barber (Vocals, Piano, Fender Rhodes), Neal Alger (Guitars), Michael Arnopol (Bass), Joey Baron (Drums 1-4, 6-10), Dave Douglas (Trumpet), Eric Montzka (Drums 5) and Cliff Colnot String Ensemble (2).
Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/16)… continuing on this evening with Patricia’s ‘Verse’ album which is one of my favorites, and Patricia and the band are sounding sublime! This is one sweet album…
Tony, the UK Blind Faith cover has been removed on many previous occasions as many find the subject matter (an 11 year old naked girl holding a phallically suggestive object) offensive, and I tend to agree. I remove it wherever I see it or wherever anybody else flags it up.
It was banned in the US, even back when first released, which should give you a clue. The US cover is fine though.
The Carpenters, the singles 1969-1981. Having an intimate listening session with my proac 1sc tonight. It’s magical with the beautiful voice of Karen Carpenter.
