WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

[cozmik_cowboy]

You're welcome!

And here's the great Victoria Williams, "Crazy Mary" , and "Summer Of Drugs".  I was listening to them because I was thinking of "Swing The Statue", but it doesn't appear to be on YT - title cut & it's apparently the only one not uploaded.

You'd think blueberries would have more sense than to sit in a mudpuddle.  But then it was Doc Watson, and blueberries do have good taste in music, and in smoothies.

Moving back up the thread to the Junior Brown. That's some great stuff. Also hoping Missus Cowboy is recovering well. I spend at least half of every day dreading my own.

Thanks - the surgery could not have gone better, but the recovery has had some hiccups (couldn't get off the ventilator right away, switch from Norco to Percocet left her basically comatose for a day, etc.)
After much hassle, we just the OK this afternoon that we were expecting Monday AM to move her to a residential rehab place for a week so she can get steady enough to handle the stairs in our big, old house.  I just ran home to get her tennies (for some reason they don't think the Crocs she wore to the hospital would be good for working on that....) and need to get back.
Later all - and thanks again for asking.

This is wonderful ...

fIREHOSE - Powerful Hankerin’

 

I have always loved firehose. No frills. No over-production. Just great song-writing and playing.
Great example of a band that just plays awesome music.
Such a great trio. So much going on for just a three piece.
The interplay between the guitar and bass is very complimentary.
Each member is able to add their unique sound and flavor without overshadowing the other guys.

Stuff off of "Master of Realty" to "Sabotage", and before "Rocka Rolla" on repeat for a while to better hear more of the subtleties of the original Judas Priest.  Halford had long hair.  Who knew?

[cozmik_cowboy]

Now maybe I'm a bit addled from enjoying my youth too thoroughly, but I could have sworn those big,purple letters that spelled out Master Of Reality were on the outside of a Black Sabbath album, no?


Peter (who, he is ashamed to confess, did own said vinyl as a lad)

Prince's 1977 Jazz Fusion/Funk Sessions-

HOLY SMOKES!

[Zut8083]

I've seen "MASTER OF REALITY" in the surface of CD sleeves that are embossed and flush, so I'd guess that the lettering could be printed on the album or CD any way that the pressing was commissioned to be.  So, I think you can get away with "Yes, it was".  I type this while sipping some cold brewed tea, but it's not sweetened or adjusted.  Just tea.

So, it is therefore not Sweet Leaf Tea.    That pun made my eyes hurt, it was so bad corny...but I had no choice.

[cozmik_cowboy]

I did not refer to the style of the graphics (and anyway, i was talking about an LP) but rather the fact that you said you were listening to it to get "the subtleties of the original Judas Priest" (and I will leave that oxymoron alone for now  ) when it it was a Black Sabbath album (and song).

Peter (Who is terrified he knows this, as the last metal that held his interest more than half a bar was the original Alice Cooper band)

[Zut8083]

OH!  Right.

I was cherry picking Sabbath from Master of Reality (After Forever and a few others) and then moving on to Megalomania from Sabotage before switching gears to playing a live version of Rocka Rolla from Priest, with a hirsute Halford, on the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1975, later followed by some stuff off of Sad Wings of Destiny, all pre-studs and motorcycles.  It was a change from "Breaking the Law" or covering "The Green Manalishi".  In any regard, I think I omitted to many words and it got kinda screwed up and unclear.  Or I need some warm milk and sleep.  My apologies.

Oh, and the original Alice Cooper Band catalog is freaking amazing.  "Elected" is probably one of my absolute favorites, and the promo film that was made for it is freaking great.

Sorry for the trouble.
