Yeah, "The Weight" is one of the greatest songs ever and their version of "This wheels on fire" is also brill but I prefer their second album just called "The Band"

[Wynonie Harris]

Little Richard - "Here's Little Richard" (London)
James Brown - "Tours the USA" (London)
Booker T. & The MGs - "Hip-Hug-Her" (Stax)
Wynonie Harris/Eddie 'Cleanhead' Vinson - "Jump Blues" (Polydor)
Cannonball Adderley - "Something Else" (Blue Note)

...still flying the flag for good music amidst all this hippie rock stuff.

A band I used to like in the sixties and seventies was Bread, with David Gates have a few vinyl albums of theirs



This is one of my favorites

My mum used to listen to Bread when I was a youngster, they always remind of those carefree days in the 70's when it always seemed to be sunny! My fave of theirs is Guitar Man.

Ya Steve they were very popular in the 70s, don't here too much about them today, not seen David Gates for ages. Think one of the best tributes they were paid was when Jack Jones recorded a full album called Bread Winners, all music written and previously recorded by them

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Brain Salad Surgery. Amazing music, Spellbinding artwork by H.R. Giger. A feast for the senses in every way. Listen to opener "Toccata" on headphones and you'll understand why the album is called Brain Salad Surgery!!! Plus it features the epic Karn Evil 9 suite!!!

More like it! I first heard Alan Freeman play this in the 80's. He also turned me onto bands like Wishbone Ash, Uriah Heep and the Tull. Incidently, Wishbone Ash are playing Clitheroe this Saturday...would've love to have gone but I'm on a do!

Ummagumma - Pink Floyd
Meddle - Pink Floyd
Best Floyd albums before they went "Poppy" with Dark Side.

Split - Groundhogs
Charge - Paladin
And all the early Faust albums

Wynonie Harris - "Bloodshot Eyes" - a very nice 1956 issue on a UK Vogue label 45.
Huey "Piano" Smith & the Clowns - "Don't You Just Know It" - a 1958 UK release on an immaculate plum-coloured Columbia label 45 complete with original sleeve.
Amos Milburn - "One Scotch One Bourbon One Beer" - an early 60's reissue 45 on the British Vocalion label - very rare.
Wynonie Harris - "Battle of the Blues" - a 1961 EP with a great shot of the man himself on the cover on the UK Bluebeat label. Very popular with West Indians at the time.
Otis Redding - "Shake" - a 45 on the US Volt label that I bought about this time last year from a beat up old wooden shack about 5 miles from Stax studios in Memphis where it was recorded.

Still promoting quality sounds, amidst the prog ramblings of the Accyweb hippie commune.

Otis Redding is the only one of that lot I've heard of!! But is "One Scotch, One Bourbon, One Beer" the same song as the similar named "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" that George Thorogood & the Destroyers did?....if so, I'd probabily like it.
