Interesting, and yes quite Creamy though sounds to me like there’s a delay in the drummer’s headphones

Yup that cleansed the palate

Mike I’m sorry to say that against your advice I listened to Muddy’s Twist on Spotify this morning, not just sorry but really sorry…perhaps I’ll feel better if I do the Mojo Working ‘bbbbrrrrrrr’ bit on the […]

Blimey Jnr this is sub bargain bin Music For Pleasure type fare with singularly charmless cover ‘art’ knocked up by the work experience person on a free Amstrad over lunchtime. All that’s missing is a few cat […]

Thanks, will check these out and report back.

Is it even possible to be surprised, shocked, dismayed etc anymore…?

There’s a thought Tig, I’d love to make or see a Classic Albums about Muddy’s Newport set, though witnesses must be falling. I’m not so aware of Village Vanguard recordings of anyone – is there quite an archive […]

Absolutely agree, Folk Singer is one of the greatest sounding records. I’d give a highly honourable mention to ‘Muddy Waters Sings Big Bill Broonzy’ too, which without checking I think is 1960, the same year as Ne […]

Is It Rolling Bob is a great podcast, and I speak as as a mainly non believer.

Fab podcast that was, Robin was great to hear

Here here, well said.

Any Child on a Stairway debate Certainly bustles my hedgerow considerably. Age 12 I had both Made In Japan and Led Zep IV and was more drawn to Purple because of some warmth and humour that came across in their […]

Yes I believe so Baron, though obviously EC is their opening flourish of MacManus nepotism put to good use. I do appreciate that he has had his moments of trying our patience over the years. In further family […]

Aged seven or so I became obsessed with She Loves You, continually playing it on the Dansette, watching the 45 drop before Ringo’s drum fill hurled me into the whole mesmerising, ecstatic song. He’s the reason I […]

Thanks for the correction – I will check that one out. There must be live vinyl triumphs (an endearing phrase from sounds hack Geoff Barton, probably his only one) from Croydon.

Come to think of it one of my […]

Thanks Barge for the prescient review. I loved Rodgers voice, my big brother had Free and BC albums and they left lasting impressions on me. Free Live is the one I still spin, can anyone else name a live vinyl […]
