Spot of NY and the Horse to liven up a dull arvo. Great mix of songs and some proper ragged band playing and soloing. UK Reprise vinyl.

Gary Moore - Back to The Blues
Newly released on vinyl last week. A perfect introduction for anyone new to Gary Moore
and his deep blues talent. RIP.

Glad that you are enjoying Riverside, and posting again. You may be aware that the first three albums are, I believe, supposed to be a linked trilogy.
They also supported Dream Theater on a European tour back in 2008 so I wonder if you might have seen them without knowing it?

I have this album cover but I think your RCA release cover is better.
I still hear his name on Radio 4 extra “produced by Pete Atkin….”

Michael Smith - Mi Cyaan Believe It (Island LP 1982)
Dug out my original 1982 pressing of this superb dub poetry classic. Prompted by the fact that I see UMG have re issued it for the first time since original release as far as Im aware and in slightly expanded form.
Produced by Linton Kwesi Johnson and Dennis Bovell in London with the Dub Band (Matumbi), members of Aswad, Rico and other fine players.
Michael Smith was the real deal, an outspoken poet and political activist, there was a reall buzz on this guy in the early eighties but he was sadly murdered in Kingston surrounding events at a political rally where Mikey was brutally stoned to death by right wing thugs.
I remember some ignorant music journo in one of the mainstream papers (Sounds, NME…) crassly awarding Mikey the I got really stoned last night award grrrrrrr!
Anyway, I havent heard it, but if the new re issue sounds any good, I see they have squeezed some extra instrumental cuts onto the single vinyl which could be great or a sonic disaster, then I highly recommend checking it out.
Here is an interview with Paul Bradshaw shortly before his murder…

Yet another artist from the dawn of time that I seem to have completely missed in my youth. With Julie Driscoll on vocals this organ led jazz funk is a lot of fun.
So much music, so little time

Very jealous that you are seeing him live - couldn’t get the UK dates to work for me
John Martyn - Solid Air - 1973
I seem to be in this routine of having an ‘artist of the week’ at the moment, rather than the usual whimsical random picks. It’s happened with Donald Byrd, New Order, Dave Holland, Talking Heads and a few others of late.
I’ll see a doctor if it persists.
