faces- a nod is as good as a wink…
I guess I like if I had to pick only one faces album and the box set wasn't an option I'd go with this one.. a little better ratio of rockers/raveups to slow songs…..
better party album.. gets a better rating for that…i guess i would give this one five stars and ooh la la 4.5….long player probably 4.. the box set is the best though and gets five stars..

This is a "free" download on Amazon Prime. Soon I shall listen to it.

so how is this? somethin about it (maybe the cover) peaked my interest but i passed on it…
not really for me.
tried many times, but just can't get into the carla bley universe.
shiny silver cover is cool, however.

I've been listening a ton to "King Tubby's Prophesy of Dub" which is a Yabby You album as I understand it but these Jamaican releases its hard to figure anything out about them….
It is fabulous dub music… probably my favorite reissue I came across this year.. its pretty hard to find .. reissued on Blood and Fire…. some dub leaves me cold and is boring but this one is a killer…
I would post a picture but its always in my car.

Rolling Stones- Aftermath (nice stereo pressing 1a/1a stampers)… hard to believe as it may be for 1966 this was the first Stones album issued in true stereo..

winner.

My go to record of late has been Bruce Foxton - Smash The Clock… Dare I say it's a bit more Jam like then what Weller has been doing of late. I dig how he'll occasionally drop those great bass licks like he's known for just to remind of what what a great bass player he is…
