Joe Cocker

Of all of the Joe Cocker stuff I've heard (and my exposure to his oeuvre is probably rather limited) I always like that song he did called "Woman to Woman". It used to be on the jukebox at the tavern (near the art institute) where I used to go all the time.

My favorite by Cocker is "Delta Lady", well and of course "I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends"(is that the right title ??)

That Garcia you mentioned sounds interesting, Atomic Ant.  Is it a collection of ol' childrens songs or something ??  I'm not familliar with it.

I like Pete Seeger, though I don't actually know a whole lot of his music.  I've seen him interviewed in documentaries about Woody Guthrie 'n' such.  I have one of his records, but don't recall what's on it.  He seems like a cool dude.

I don't really like Cheap Trick.  "I Want You to Want Me" is just about the lamest song I ever heard, and if I'm at a bar and the band starts to play that song I just get the feeling of being disgusted.  Maybe I'm not bein' fair to Cheap Trick because I never listened to any of their other stuff, but I can't imagine they have much worth my while.

Hey! I found some Coltrane on vinyl yesterday at the Goodwill. "The Best of John Coltrane, His Greatest Years"  It's kinda beat up, and is missing one of its 2 records, but for 50 cents it's alright and it's got "Psalm From A Love Supreme" on it.  Yeah, really diggin' the Coltrane lately.

I found a nice looking copy of Leon Redbone's Doubletime at a junk shop in WV last weekend. Forgot to pick it up on the way out. I bet my bro pulled out his old record player by now to try it out.

David Grisman and Jerry Garcia, Not For Kids Only, 1993, Accoustic Disc.

The disc contains folk songs "arranged and adapted" by the David and Jerry.

1. Jenny Jenkins
2. Freight Train
3. A Horse Named Bill
4. Three Men Went A-Hunting
5. When First Unto This Country
6. Arkansas Traveler
7. Hopalong Peter
8. Teddy Bear's Picnic
9. There Ain't No Bugs on Me
10. The Miller's Will
11. Hot Corn, Cold Corn
12. A Shenandoah Lullaby

Our family favorite is number 9.

You guys keep talking about vinyl. I bought my first LPs in 1972. I did not have a stereo, but continued buying LPs through the mid 1990s. I ended up with a CD player before a turntable. I have some amazing LPs still in their original cellophane. I have Eric Clapton's Slowhand, for example. Never opened it. In all, I have over 150 LPs.   I suppose they are worth something. I keep thinking I should get a turntable.

The collection is very eclectic, ranging from metal to classical, jazz, exprimental stuff, just everything. My first LP, at age 12, was Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits. Remember School's Out? My second was Led Zepplin II. I collected every Zepplin LP I could as they came out including bootlegs. Some were stolen, but I still have most of them.

Jim Carroll Band--Catholic Boy

The Dwarves--Horror Stories (very different from their other works, they were a garage/psychedelic band at this point.  The weirdo angry punk stuff came later.  I like it all.)

Bongwater--Too Much Sleep

Dead Boys--Young, Loud, and Snotty

Led Zeppelin--Presence

That is definitely NOT their best song, particularly not that sucky version from Live at Budakhan that gets played on the radio.
Their first album is BY FAR their best, and it KICKS ASS!

Here's a good review of it:

Fleetwood Mac - Future Games


That is a great mid-period Fleetwood Mac album.  Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwin do a great job of handling the guitar, this one is pre-Bob Welch, but post-Peter Green.  The title track is awesome, as is the opening cut.  I really like this album, but haven't heard it in years.  Truly underrated, as is another from around the same time, Kiln House, which has a great song on it, "Station Man", that the Grateful Dead ripped off when they wrote 'Passenger" for the album Terrapin Station.  Apparently, the Dead really liked the sound Fleetwood Mac got on that and a few subsequent pre-Lindsay Buckingham releases.  Cool stuff, and often overlooked and overshadowed by the later, Rumours lineup or the earlier Peter Green-led incarnation.

They're both great songs; my fav from it is "Sands of Time".
