Stomu Yamashta, Steve Winwood and Michael Shrieve - Go, a fine fusion album that features many more excellent musicians than the three featured.
Pharoah Sanders - Moonchild, Timeless Records/Music On Vinyl 40th Anniversary Reissue.
A bit more laid back than Pharoah’s usual fare and all the better for it IMO.
So Joe gets an encore !
Joe Bonamassa - British Blues Explosion Live (2018) - recorded July 2016
Joe at Newark Castle July 2016 - the day after he recorded the concert in Greenwich (same set).
For Jim it was all over by the time he was 30.
More Alice.
Live At Berkeley Community Theatre 1972
Soundboard recording, great line-up and if the sound ain’t ‘hi fi’, who cares. Ben Riley ace on drums, the sarod and tabla come through nicely, Charlie’s solo is great on ALS; and Alice… is simply…Alice

The only reason i choose to play this tonight, is because when i put the birthday boy Bailey’s Thomson Twins record back in the LP rack, in the T section, i saw this Robin Trower classic nearby, and thought yeah don’t mind if i do. A stupendous sonic Q kicking out of this 2014 remaster, they certainly did a fine job with it, oh yes
