Indeed a real good album
After listening to the Blue Suede Shoes episode of A History of Rock and Roll in 500 songs podcast I had to spin this
Carl Perkins - Original Sun Greatest Hits
.sjb
You can always tell a good album as the songs are instantly familiar and recognisable. For me, every track on the album is in this category. Good to hear others are also enjoying it
Andrew Marlin – Fable & Fire
CD|2021
Folk, bluegrass. Instrumental album by one half of Watchhouse (Mandolin Orange). First listen, and enjoying so far.
Greg Foat - The Glass Frog. Laid-back (so far) electronically enhanced jazz from the versatile Mr Foat.
Stevie Ray Vaughan - 1984 - Couldn’t Stand the Weather - Label - Epic - OG Vinyl.
This is SRV’s second studio album and the follow up to Texas Flood.
PS looks like I’m following Tony this morning with this. Great minds😂
Some sunny summer arvo music - my favourite Neil Young On the Beach. It is actually pretty downbeat but it was the soundtrack to plenty of good times. Reprise riverboat UK vinyl.
Great cover too- the buried caddy tail fin, the newspaper headline and carrying the brolly material thru to the sleeve insides.
Nick Drake - 1968 / 1969 - Five Leaves Left - Label - Island - Vinyl (Back To Black 2013 Reissue)
This is Nick Drake’s debut studio album produced by Joe Boyd.
J.J. Cale - Shades - CD (1980)
In Memory of J.J. Cale 05/12/38 - 26/07/13
US singer-songwriter JJ Cale died of a heart attack at the age of 74. He became famous in 1970, when Eric Clapton covered his song ‘After Midnight’. In 1977 Clapton also popularised Cale’s ‘Cocaine’. The two worked together on an album which won a Grammy award in 2008.
More songs that remind me of Fela Kuti than of, say, King Sunny Ade, but it’s none the worse for that. It’s also better recorded and mastered than many.
