Squid Tempest wrote: Lots more Tangerine Dream... Bootleg Box Set Vol 1 Encore (loving this at the moment) Ricochet Rubycon Phaedra Kinks - Village Green Wishbone Ash - Live Dates Growing on me now. At first I was a bit disappointed with all the boogieing, but I think I'm getting past that stage now and enjoying the songs, the guitar duels etc. Alice Coltrane - Ptah the El Daoud Lovely stuff Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells Every now and again I feel the urge. No excuses really! Kraftwerk - Radioactivity Madness - Norton Folgate Black Sheep - Live at the Beeb Ash Ra Tempel - S/T Nice stuff there. I too love Tangerine Dream's Encore and would have to say I think it's one of their very best. In the nearly 30 years I've been listening to of it still sounds fresh and still reveals new things with every play.

It really is. It stands with any other TD album and has got to be one of their best. I'd dare say it's one of the best live albums by anyone of all time too. Even my top-40 loving pop princess of a wife loves it so that must say something about cross-appeal! Anyway and to reiterate, I like most of the stuff on your list so you have impeccable taste my friend!!

Dom Kellor new e.p. interesting heavy shoegaze or whatever. Bit reiminiscent of Loop. Like it but thought tracks would be much longer. O.V.Wright Giant of southern soul 1 disc best of I chanced on in a sale some years back. He's a great singer and I love the guitarist too. Really slinky leads. Davy Graham Shirley Collins Folk Roots New Routes Really enjoying Davy Graham these days, must invest in the new 2cd best of. The purity of Shirley's singing has always struck me as something of an acquired taste, I like it but I would think others might find it a hurdle. i guess it's the lack of an r'n'r influence or something? Anyway, very glad I finally got this. Been meaning to for AGES. Seeds anaheim Melodyland '68 Great also to finally get this, which I think is about the only true live gig document. I think Raw & Alive must have been them playing a live set in the studio, the sound is very similar but not as rough. Sky does the 'This song is dedicated to the world in general' intro to Pushing too Hard as he does on R&A. Plus you get a new song in the shape of Cloud ride. Apparently the individual studio lps are due a remastered and extended release, which is forthcoming according to somebody on another list. loads of live recordings as per usual. DVDs been compiling the bunch of compis I normally go back to London with. These include johnny thunders & Heartbreakers Max's '79 haven't really checked these out too much before. but on the strength of this set that was a major oversight. Rock & Roll in one of its better myriad forms. Warhorse went to add a disc I'd received as spirit Caravan and found out it was this bunch. This is possibly less Guru Guru like than their As Heaven Turns To Ash cd which I love. Lucky find this since I don't think the uploader knew what he had & I'd always dreamed of seeing them live. Magazine on Later missed this at the time so nice to see it yesterday. Band really do seem to be on form, though i think I could live without the chewing gum pose of the guitarist. Do like Barry Adamson's new look though. Grateful Dead Wembley Halloween 90 Jerry's voice is absolutely shot, not sure if it's flu or the drugs or what. Somewhat detracts from the music which is prety stellar. I don't really follow them this late but I was at the Wembley shows as it was my only chance to see them live. Amon duul II 1975 band's appearance on a German youth show. Was watching something else while dubbing this but every time I checked back over it was in the middle of a discussion in deutsch. What music I did hear was still pretty great though & I don't know their later material. Jackson 5 live Mexico City The brothers are young teens by this point and this does seem pretty cool. Think I might have preferred the natty duds of the early 70s to the white disco suits though. Fall Nottingham 82 The 2 drummer line up. Great show. Pretty visceral for static performers. Weather report live 72 Again very visceral. this is a very early line up of the band, Vitous not Pastorius. Listening to later stuff you'd be surprised the could hit this hard. Unfortunately the whole show has JAZZ 615 printed across the middle of screen and the time bar running at bottom. Think the performance makes up for it more than somewhat though. 2x LOOP dvds Groovy heaviosity from longhaired indie types. Max Roach live '64 awesome female vocalist in gospel style makes this even better than the instrumental band alone would. Foetus Atlanta '90 still with the Children of God Swans band augmented by Hahn Rowe (Hugo Largo) crunchy heavy rock. westberg can be heard to rock out qite spectactularly. several other bits & pieces I might remember later stevo

Anyway, very glad I finally got this. Been meaning to for AGES. Saw a duo (Jonny Kearney and Lucy Farrell) suppporting The Unthanks last night open with a version of "Hares on the Mountain" from that album, one of the highlights of the night for me. Shirley and Davy's version is exquisite.

ain't it? Lovely record all round. Guess it just about connects the 2 main schools of thought about folk at the time. The one which thought folk was a tool to play around with and come up with something pretty new from possible combinations which Graham epitomises and the traditional purist Ewan McColl school, though I'm not sure whether or not Shirley Collins 100% fits that. Listening to that you just wonder how widely people contemporary to it's horizons widened through it. Or was it just an exotic item to many in which case that possibly wouldn't come into play. I mean i always fancied existing in the sixties, thinking about mod-ism or psychedelia but the reality was probably a lot more drab than the nostalgia for it.
