I found the Saints were okay, short of awesome. Diferent singer, too. I much preferred Galactic a few weeks ago even though they really do need a singer. Right now I am playing morning-before-work music by way of one Steve Camacho. He's a black folk singer from the rustic Bronx. Great voice, the lp is on the Cook label and comes with a lyric sheet dated 1962. None of the folkies I know have ever heard of the guy, although there's one walking folk encyclopedia I know whom I keep forgetting to ask about this fine record. 1962 might be the last year folk records were made without any Dylan covers! I love Dylan but how many people recorded "Blowin In The Wind"? Steve talks between songs as if it's a live recording but there are no audience sounds. I like his introductions to ye olde standards like "Cotton Fields" and "Gallows Pole", dunno if this one's on cd or not... |

Tom Tom Club self titled
This album is damn catchy and sugary, but at the same time it is fun. The songs seem timeless like they could have been created yesterday. Great Caribbean-style rhythms with a funky bass line and some great drum work. |

I was thinking of Walk on the Wild Side (Lou Reed).
Holly came from Miami, F-L-A
Hitchhiked her way across the U-S-A
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
Candy came from out on the Island
In the back room she was everybody's darlin'
But she never lost her head
Even when she was givin' head
She says hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
Said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
And the colored girls go
Doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo doo doo...
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place where
They said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
They said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side
Sugar plum fairy came and hit the streets
Lookin' for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo
You should have seen him go go go
They said hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side
I said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
All right, huh
Jackie is just speedin' away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would've helped that bash
She said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
And the colored girls say... |

i LOVE that Tom Tom Club record! i had the tape when i was little. me and my sister used to know all the words to "Wordy Rappinghood!" love that funky little organ breakdown...
can't stop playing the Go! Team's Thunder, Lightning, Strike record OR the new Yeah Yeah Yeah's. those reviewers can bite me (i miss Velma  ); that YYY's is some of their best work IMO. |

...of "Unbelievable" fame, Goat? I've been on a Canadian music kick, after borrowing a cd ("Canadian Rarities", surely a boot) with cuts by everyone from Montreal's The Haunted, Toronto's Ugly Ducklings, Handsome Ned, lotsa stuff I've never come across before. It inspired me to get a few Canadian rekkids, both the Paupers' lp's and a nice find I'm enjoying at this minute, the one and only Natural Gas record (jazzy, in the spirit of early Chicago). Also grabbed two Fanny albums I hadn't seen before, bringing my Fanny collection to 6... this early 70's girl rawk band had some fine moments. |

Hi Doctors, if you're getting into Sun Ra, there is a most interesting thread on him in the Soulful Detroit forum... someone there mentioned a Batman & Robin lp that features him and the Arkestra, sounds intriguing. I have a neato Batman lp on tape, but I think there are a few such lp's. |

Thanks, Goat. Dunno why I mixed those two up..! I'm surprised you're familiar with The Haunted, they only recently came to my attention, and I'm from Montreal; I can drop names of Montreal music artists that nobody who isn't from there would know. On the other hand, I was also told the Haunted's '67 lp sells for hundreds of dollars. Makes a couple of bills for the Ugly Ducklings seem worth it!
Hi Superaygun, I might have jumped the gun about 6 Fanny lp's, I can only seem to locate 4, but those ladies were pretty cool. I played side 1 of "Mother's Pride", it reminds me of a guilty pleasure of mine, early Heart.
On the Windsor tip, I saw a record by a group called Windsor Tunnel. If memory serves, they had a Windsor address on the back cover, so it's not a case of the Bay City Rollers or Montreal (Salsoul disco act) type bands naming themselves after cities they aren't from. Any information of this band, Goat? Anyone? |

Thanks, Superaygun. Maybe now I can throw on 'Dreamboat Annie' even when people are around! Thanks for the info, Andrew. I was advised the album was poppier and softer than I'd like, so I passed. Too bad, we (rekkid store man & myself) agreed vintage rock from across the Detroit River seemed so promising. |

I'm just listening to a pile of records I got at a sale today. Any Detroiters familiar with Catfish? I got a spiffy album of theirs recorded live at the Eastown Theatre, and thought they were perhaps local. Also continued on my Canadian kick- currently listening to the excellent Mainline album. Also cooped a Perth County Conspiracy album along with a Canadian Talent Library Bluegrass album (saw a Jackie Mittoo lp on that label, it was more than I wanted to pay but I have a feeling it was still pretty cheap for something so rare by a big ticket artist). Also got a record by Dr Music, one by Brazil's Toquinho (live Montreux '81), Tico All Stars at the Village Gate vol3 (still missing volume 1), Puerto Rico 68 by Joe Loco, the Blues Busters on Montreal's Trans World label, Michigan & Smiley's Studio 1 lp 'Rub A Dub Style', the 2 Motherlode albums, Leo Acosta's "Boogaloo No.1", and tons of other stuff to keep me occupied. Also found a fairly cheap copy of the first Kool & The Gang album, but I'm already tempted to sell it to pay for the rest of what I bought. |

Would that be Bob "Catfish" Hodge's band from the early '70's? He's a Detroit native, and though I don't know much about the band itself, singer/songwriter/guitar player Hodge was still out there as of 5 years ago. His "Bluesbusters" LP's are pretty good.....
No reason to feel guilty about Heart. If you can find it, pick up The Lovemongers EP from about 10 years ago. Ann and Nancy do killer acoustic versions of "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" and "Battle Of Evermore" recorded live at a Seattle club date in 1991. |

Wes, I believe so......
Heart made an appearance as "special guest vocalists" with The Funk Brothers in Seattle a couple years ago, and I was VERY dissapointed that they didn't do "Papa...." It's a hard EP to find, but then again, the club it was recorded at is no more, either.... |

Mojo Magazine had a free cd a while ago featuring Zep influences, I highly recommend it to Zep fans. Page was a great guitar player, but after hearing early variations of cuts like "Black Mountain Side" it seems he had so very few original ideas. On their last American tour in 1977, Zep tried playing "Battle of Evermore" live, with Page joining Plant; ugh. That 9.29.71 gig was a hot one, though. I thought the band recorded this using multiple microphones on stage, making this one of the best '71 recordings. I'd like to hear the rest of the Toronto 71 soundboard if that's surfaced. About 40 minutes started making the rounds about 15 years ago. |

It was actually John Paul Jones who tried to sing Sandy Denny's part on the 77' tour. He was playing mandolin at the same time, so we must cut him a little slack.
JPJ was the unheralded genius of the mighty Zep. Read this interesting article.

I wish he would write a book. It's amazing how some folks can make it through the hype in one piece. |

I just got a Sandy Denny cd from someone I gave it to at least a decade ago. There's a live boot of her recorded in Denver in 1973, from a radio broadcast (I think). My copy's really hissy and muffled, but since nobody else I know has it, I put it on a cdr along with a live Fairport broadcast from Amsterdam in 1968 (nice cover of a Leonard Cohen song- either "Suzanne" or "Bird On A Wire" if my mem'ry serves me). On a similar tip, I am playing the lp "Perth County Conspiracy Doesn't Exist". Mellow late night tunes.
Thanks for the clarification on JPJ's vocals, Bongman. I suppose I gave him too much credit for not playing wasted like Jimmy Page. |

Listened to a Rhinocast podcast tonight (#39) that has a long rant about Bob Seeger and "Back in 72". Very funny hearing an outsider talk about Seeger. |

I haven't checked out Backstreets in a long time. I read on Soulfuldetroit's forum that youtube currently has a clip of Bob Segar performing 'Rambling Gambling Man' back in the proverbial day... there's a great show floating around, I wish my copy sounded better, from a show in Schaumberg IL in 1975, I highly recommend it. Currently listening to Kitchener Ontario's own Charity Brown with one of my favourite Canadian disco tracks, "Forecast". Belle Epoque's "Miss Broadway" comes close for me, but this is a fun track not too many people are hip to... off to work now... |

Part of my collection I've been building from extracts of podcasts of Alternate Take, includes a bunch of Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen (yes, the Seeger sessions are great!), Lisa Germano, Phoenix, Mojave 3, Spoon, Portishead, and The Ditty Bops. I'm putting many of these on my shopping list...

Sister Wynona Carr:
"Dragnet for Jesus", "15 Rounds for Jesus"
Recorded in Detroit at United Sound, written and arranged by Wynona.
"Our Father"
Recorded live at New Bethel Baptist Church, with a juvenile Aretha Franklin sitting in the audience -learning how its DONE. This performance is chilling to the bone, inspite a 10 second erasure in the middle of the recording.
Sister Wynona ROCKS |

Wishbone Ash (1st LP), Spooky Tooth (Spooky Two), Gong (Expresso II), and Trapeze (Medusa).

Yes, I agree. I was kind of using the word hardcore to show that it is a little harder then what I thought most people would listen to on the forum.
A better word(s) would have been alternative metal I guess. |

Always a great show. |

Good piece of work, that Gill Scott-Heron thing.
As to NRBQ, I saw them once, a poorly billed show that had them open for The Stooges at the Birmingham Palladium. If you can find it, the original 1969 NRBQ Columbia LP was released on CD about 10 years ago. Grab it. Also worth looking for is NRBQ's "She Sings, They Play" with the late Skeeter Davis who was Q Bass player Joey Spampinato's wife. What they do to "Some Day My Prince Will Come" is worth the price of admission...... |

Southern Culture on the Skids - Doublewide and Live.
Just picked it up. Really guite an unbelievable album.
Any SCOTS fans, I would highly, highly recommend it.
Also, they will be playing with the Paybacks in LA later this summer, so if there are any transplants are out there, it should be a hell of a show. |

SCOTS-Dirt Track Date is a highly under-rated album, even if you take "Camel Walk" off (although not a bad song!)
and NO Barrett-era Floyd, either!

I got a spiffy punk-ish lp yesterday in Hamilton (Ontario)- Various artists, "Live at the Rat" (Rat Records) double lp from the legendary Boston punk rock venue. Fun stuff! Also got a record that might be my biggest ticket vinyl find ever, unless it's a reissue. Some re-issues have the same thick wax, and darker, thicker cardboard for the lp cover as the original. I thought the cover looked promising and I asked them to throw on "Spacing Out" by The Invaders and I loved it. I am only concerned about it's "original pressing" status because I looked for info on-line and all anybody seemed to know for sure was that this is one funky lp which normally costs a bundle- which means I will make a cdr of it, rather than bring it to the various places where I sometimes play records for people. |

Hm, I wander if I slept on Radio Birdman in my town? The last punk-y thing I went to were fellow Australians The Saints, I have had a lean summer for concerts (Joe Bataan, Seu Jorge, Amadou et Mariam, a few others) and now summer's about done, yikes... glad to see Pam has good taste and digs Toronto's Sadies. I thought they might have stopped touring the USA? On that tip, are there any Good Brothers fans here? Dallas Good's dad and uncles. They sound a little like Hank Williams II, at least on the 1980 double live album I have. Currently listening to news. Exciting, eh? |

Sadies coming to Detroit in a few weeks. (Lager House). The elder Goods guest star on the Sadies In Concert cd so that's the first I heard of them. Which one is their Dad? |

Damn, I missed 'em this weekend (other stuff going on), but I'm glad the Sadies still tour, I remember reading about some difficulties they'd experienced in the States on a long haul tour a few years ago. Not sure which senior Good is Dallas' father (Bruce? -I was asked to fill in on the radio yesterday and I used to opportunity to play "Hot Knife Boogie" from the double live album (Good Bros, not Sadies). Not sure if that's become a Canadian-only hobby in this day and age... |

i can't stop listening to The Ex after seeing them in Chicago over the weekend. holy shit, were they great! |

I found (on iTunes) a series of podcasts called The Folkways Collection - 27 radio shows about Moses Asch and the Folksways record label. Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Leadbelly, the Blues, music of the Civil Rights Movement, spoken word collections, a series called Subterranean Homesick Blues about the Village and the folk movement. Intensely interesting, free! Made for Canadian Public Radio. |

For some reason some Jan and Dean popped into my record collection last trip to the used store, then surf music showed up on one of my pandora channels, so I'm on a twangy guitar kick right now. Duo-Tones, Chantays, Rip Chords and the like..... |

Heh, I'm on Canadian radio and I play stuff from a few of those Smithsonian-Folkways albums in my collection, any Detroiters familiar with the 'Songs of the Great Lakes' lp? I am intrigued by Oldrefordette's broadcast lp's, I always have my eye out for those sorts of oddities. I have a 1968 Detroit lp which is an album a narration of a year in the life of Detroit with snippets of speaches and the like. I bought it expecting to hear something like the "Cruisin'" series but from Detroit radio in 1968, but it's more like a self conscious time capsule. Right now I am listening to news, but 2 cd's I have had on regularly for the last 2 days are a compilation of the Bandit Records label (Chicago soul, I really love some tracks on here, the story behind the man (Arrow Brown) and his label is pretty creepy but they made some good records to be sure...) -also, mebbe because I missed Roger Waters (I think), I pulled out 1 of my Floyd cdr's, one I made from a 2nd generation cassette of a Floyd show from Germany on the spring '72 tour, one of the last non-Dark Side gigs they played, as I think they played the whole album from the fall '72 tour onwards. If either Roger or his ex-band mates had balls they'd play Atom Heart Mother again. Worked with Echoes on the 87 tour until they replaced it with (yawn) "Shine On, Parts 1 to 5"...
I played quite a bit of the Shoshtokovich (Sp?!?) opera of MacBeth with some crazy Russian singing last night, far out stuff... now that I think about it I followed that with one of the weirder passages on the Chicago 5 lp box set "Live st Carnegie Hall" and was surprised at how well they went together! Maybe it's just me... maybe that won't matter and I'll play the same combo on my next radio show... |

chamberlain: exit 263
quote:"Exit 263 is a near-perfect effort that reaches back beyond Nebraska to the Springsteen of Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town to the parched, pleading soul of Wilson Pickett and Sam and Dave. It helps that singer David Moore bears a muscular resemblance to the Boss, and that he's got the thematic skills to back it up."

Glad the Sadies were sounding good, I thought I'd mention a couple of things Detroit-concert related and ask a question or 2-
Has anyone heard a Doors double live cd listed as Cobo Hall '70? It's a surprisingly good and long show, and sounds really good if a little bit tinny.
A firned of mine passed me a few Stones cd's that are supposed to be significant improvements over the previously circulating versions of some shows, from the 69 tour, and 1 is Olympia Stadium- I have yet to compare it to my tape of the vinyl double album, but if memory serves there is some audience chatter I don't remember from the tape, so I'm wondering if two shows were played in Detroit in 1969? There has been some confusion about this, as there are several cities where they played two shows in one night. Just wondering... |

Pam....
....what Parsons and Emmylou Harris do to "Love Hearts" on Grievous Angel puts any other version to shame. Played it about 18 months ago on a little country station I was working at and the phones just lit up like a Christmas Tree.
Recently...
"The Mamas And The Papas", by, well if you can't guess, you've got a problem. "Midnight Voyage" led me back there.
"Ellis Island", the 1968 LP by the Toronto group The Paupers.
Suprised and pleased this thread is still active. |

Wow, another fan of The Paupers' "Ellis Island" album. I like it better than their first l.p. I think they went on to form the core of Lighthouse, perhaps? I've been pulling out more albums I associate with winter (for no rational reason), like Funkadelic's "America Eats Its Young"... |

Erik, was at the Stones Det show and if memory serves there was one appearance that year.
If they played Det twice I'm sure I would remember, would have been a 'big deal'. I thought they played at Cobo, not Olympia, but could be mistaken. I do remember a quote from Jagger in the Fifth Estate: "We didn't really get it on until Detroit", which made all of us feel good... |

Jimg, the Parker stuff was from a 2-CD package called "Yardbird Suite," issued about ten years ago. A broad overview of Parker; I imagine that some of it is from Dial recordings. I wish I could tell you more, but I borrowed a copy, duped it, and now have only the music, no printed material from the package. The re-mastering job was handled very deftly. The sound is about as good as possible for something so old. |
