Latest Playlist. Hadn't heard McCartney since I last had it on vinyl 1972 or so. It holds up well, warm sound. He played all instruments. Cry of Love is not Hendrix's best, but has two of my favorite Jimi songs, Angel and Freedom. Simon and Garfunkel Hits one is just great. They had broke up by then, I think were pressured for an album, if memory serves. Snuck some new with the old on it. Europe 72 is Whacky Dead at their zenith.... fun.

Progressive psychadelic huh. Seems 1000 different such albums came out in 1970 alone. As if funded by an organization bent on changing a nations culture.

Cool

Soooo...while "jacking around" on your other "First vinyl records now cassette tapes making a comeback" thread rohrt, I dug out some more vinyl and threw on "Just what I needed" for a spin

Don't know exactly what it is (humidity?) that makes vinyl LP playback sound so rich and full on rainy days like we're having today.

Alvin, I always thought these two greatest hits albums had awesome covers!

The first photo (red album) was 1963, taken in the stairwell at EMI Records, when The Beatles were first signed. Ringo had just joined the group, and didn't yet have his haircut to match the others.

When recording the 1969 album "Get Back" (which would eventually be released as "Let It Be"), they had the idea of posing in the same stairwell, in the same positions. The original concept of the "Get Back" album was that The Beatles wanted to get back to their roots, playing live, and simplifying their recording process. Their long time producer and master craftsman of their sound, George Martin, was not invited to participate. The "Get Back" sessions showed how dysfunctional the band had become, and was a disaster. The album and film were shelved.

By the time "Let It Be" was released, the group was effectively broken up. United Artists, the film company that owned the rights to the movie and soundtrack, decided that "Get Back" was an inappropriate title considering the animosity shared among the group members. They used Paul's song "Let It Be" as a new title, which seemed more appropriate now. The new cover for "Let It Be" consisted of 4 pics of the members taken from the movie.

what about all the added strings contrary to the original intent? Didn't Martin get to juice it up anyway? Hence the "naked" digital release a few years back without strings. I like the strings original better, in spite of Long & Winding Road theatrics.

That was Phil Spector that added all the strings and such to "Let It Be", with help from John Lennon. At the time they were working on it, Lennon and Spector were best buddies, and the other three Beatles simply lost interest, busy recording their own solo albums.

I like both the "strings" version (that's the version everyone is familiar with, the recordings that have been used since the album was released), as well as the "Let It Be...Naked" album that was released a few years ago. The "naked" album was the entire "Let It Be" album in its original form, before all the overdubs.

Don Henley on Charlie Rose talks about resurgence of vinyl, bandwidth, audiophiles, and more applicable to this OP topic...

Start with this => http://youtu.be/5cPz35UpB_A

"July 18, 2015, Henley started pre-order of his new album, Cass County."

First Listen: Don Henley, 'Cass County' HERE


Don Henley's new album, Cass County, comes out Sept. 25.

Courtesy of the artist

There are good reasons it might not feel right to describe Cass County as "Don Henley's country album." That terminology could easily connote the carpet-bagging we associate with someone like Steven Tyler making his big country move; plus, no one of Henley's stature likes to give in to the reductionism of genre this late in the game. But scroll through the Cass County credits, and you'll see pedal-steel guitar listed on 14 out of 16 tracks. So maybe, just on that basis alone, it's a safe enough categorization to make — just as long as we recognize that he's not borrowing into the hybrid represented here so much as reclaiming it. To paraphrase an old Bono aphorism: The Garths, Keiths and Kennys of the world stole country-rock, and now Don Henley's stealing it back.

Henley hasn't made many adjustments in his lyrical preoccupations — regret and acceptance, the passage of time, love's fading and bloom — so the album is still more about taking the Long Road Out Of Eden than dirt roads. The real shift is in a degree of acoustic instrumentation not heard in his work since The Eagles' classic sophomore album, Desperado. He still rocks it out a little, in a nervously sensual duet with Martina McBride titled "That Old Flame," as well as in an upbeat album-closer called "Where I Am Now" that marks the first time he's wrapped up any record, solo or Eagles, with a cheerful rocker instead of a rueful, end-of-an-era lament. But for the most part, Henley plays to his traditional ballad-singing strengths, albeit with a pinch more dobro and mandolin adding a sense of Southwestern regionalism to the mix.

On paper, especially, a long list of world-class cameos further tilts the balance away from rock 'n' roll. Pretty much every living female country voice you've ever loved puts in an appearance, either as a duet partner — in the case of McBride, Miranda Lambert and Dolly Parton — or a featured harmonizer (Lucinda Williams, Lee Ann Womack, Trisha Yearwood, Alison Krauss, Ashley Monroe, two out of three Dixie Chicks). He also finds room to squeeze in menfolk Vince Gill, Merle Haggard and Mick Jagger. Looking at this list, you might simultaneously marvel at the assemblage of talent and worry that the album will sag under the sheer value-added weight.

Happily, Cass County, named after the underpopulated area of Texas where Henley grew up, evokes a lonesome state of mind, too, without the all-star guest list turning the reflective material into too much of a party. Henley portrays the end of a marriage in "Take A Picture Of This," a track that trades in the pedal steel for tympani on the way toward becoming a bit more Orbison-esque. "Too Much Pride," meanwhile, has just enough of a wistful R&B feel to recall Ray Charles' 1960s excursion into country (and Western). "A Younger Man" looks at May/December relationships with a jaundiced eye, but it's really a chance for Henley the known idealist to play Henley the cynic, telling a young woman that "If you're lookin' for believers in faith and hope and charity / Then you're lookin' for a younger man, not me." The pluses and minuses of having a few years behind you similarly figure into the duet with Haggard, "The Cost Of Living," as well as "Where I Am Now," where the singer is actually able to opine that "Father Time is a friend." Though the album ends on that anti-nostalgia note, he does turn the clock back to visit the title locale in the boyhood verses of the album's most autobiographical number, "Train In The Distance." Still, by the end of it, he's a grown man who turns restlessly in his bed, wondering whether that far-off railway whistle is a beacon or an omen.

Henley reportedly started recording Cass County years ago as a primarily covers-based project. The remnants of that approach are in the four bonus tracks sprinkled throughout the 16-song deluxe edition — none self-penned, all of them wonderful. The most notable of these is the Dolly Parton duet, on the Louvin Brothers hit "When I Stop Dreaming," which finds Parton briefly stretching herself to become a raspy-voiced belter. If you're foolish enough to settle for the standard edition, you do still get one cover — a contemporary one, of Tift Merritt's "Bramble Rose," with Lambert and Jagger joining Henley as the world's unlikeliest superstar power trio. As the reissue of Sticky Fingers recently reminded us, Jagger is one of the world's great underheralded country singers, and it's a treat to hear him revisit his C&W "roots" here.

As for Henley himself, he's 15 years removed from his last solo album, and seven years removed from The Eagles' final attempt at a group record. So it makes sense that he's finally left that ongoing garden party to head back to the desert. As Cass County proves, it's fertile ground for him.

Not vinyl, but analog update: Allman Brothers 1971 Syracuse SUNY concert recording. This is kind of a Duane Allman fan thing and historic stuff.

This pic is not exact show but another from same batch. Also historic right after Duane died. Example of source reels.

I had to have converted analog to CD on 71 show so ABB experts in AL and NE could listen and figure out verify (they both have every known Duane recording about)

early initial review is it is the real thing. This show has been circulated in the trading community on cassette in the old days and now digitally. I have been told incomplete show. Also not high grade. ABB did a commercial archive release a few years ago on CD. I have been told by inside source some songs were subbed from other shows as mixer sound guy was directed by underling to do that (doubt band even knew). (shell game)
This may address that also. Doubt band would want this show from me. My dream would be a vinyl pressing of it as it is good enough to warrant.

waiting more review and analysis.

It may get digital tweaking and then I will putting out for FREE digital enjoyment to all. I will not allow download of degraded source digital so snail mail CD, ha. I'll keep updated and will start thread on when ready. Duane is on fire this show (not long before he died at his peak) and ONLY live version of Blue Sky Dickey Betts new song with Duane doing the album like slide, and Gregg singing more on it also. Source is soundboard so no crowd override noise, subtle. Real deal I am excited now. Stay tuned.

This pic is not exact show but another from same batch. Also historic right after Duane died. Example of source reels.

I had to have converted analog to CD on 71 show so ABB experts in AL and NE could listen and figure out verify (they both have every known Duane recording about)

early initial review is it is the real thing. This show has been circulated in the trading community on cassette in the old days and now digitally. I have been told incomplete show. Also not high grade. ABB did a commercial archive release a few years ago on CD.

Talk to Chad Kassem at Acoustic Sound in Salina KS. He could be real interested in something like this.
