yeah only one from Penthouse…but the year before they did the 'penthouse' tour, so it's good they stayed away
but short set…maybe there were some long droning one…wait that Bruxelles


Fantastic album. Potentially in my top 100. Certainly in  top 3 Dylan albums. Original pressing. I have many copies of this record but this one is surprisingly playable. Picked up recently for a mere $3. I prefer mono on the first four Bob albums as the stereo effect is weird when all you have is Bob’s voice, guitar and harmonica. Also, people may notice the difference in the cover picture crop (what a picture of Bob and Suze Rotolo walking in the Village!)between mono and stereo. This of course has Bob’s breakthrough hit Blowing in the wind but also great songs like Hard rain’s gonna fall, Masters of war, Don’t think twice it’s all right, Girl from the north country. What a great album. It had to be or Bob’s career was over as his first album had stiffed. At this point Bob figured out how to take classic folk tunes and discreetly- without giving up the house- turn them into original songs and he was writing tunes so fast the original withdrawn pressing had four songs that were replaced by new songs. There are very few copies of the original and it’s a holy grail record that now sells for silly money.



This is a stereo second pressing technically dated 1967. The cover picture looks annoyingly off center on these stereo copies. I got this one with Freewheelin but this was $1.
It's Ash Wednesday so starting with "A to Z" had to go with the trusty MP3 player for this one.  Some gems in this collection

But TIL that Bowie and john cale did versions

(apparently JR wrote and recorded it in 72 with Cale, but wasn't released until 76)

honestly the Burning sensations one  from RM is my favorite
https://efficientspace.bandcamp.com/album/ghost-riders

Ghost Riders is a collection of a bunch of otherwise unknown American Garage bands from the 60s inspired by the British Invasion.  Always find this a fun listen.

One of the best band names ever Decompressed Impossibility

"Across 17 open hearted ballads recorded 1965-1974, the 2LP collects and connects dots between British Invasion fanatics, child prodigies, the loners and the luckless, in a kind of trans-continental survey of those swept up in rock’n’roll mania and buoyed by local newspaper ads promising fame and gold records."


Art Pepper’s last recorded session (May82) a month later he was dead (June 1982)

Just him on clarinet and sax along with George Cables..his favorite pianist
Oh I listened to a few hours of Art Pepper the other day - really good stuff!
I can’t not hear no more about Art Pepper!!
Shall we switch to Sault?

I mean we are dangerously at risk of becoming the most active Art Pepper online community if we keep on our current course. Need to spice it up somehow!
