    Paul Simon - There Goes Rhymin' Simon
    (1973, Columbia) STERLING in the deadwax



    Sure Kodachrome has been played to death, but this record is full of great classic songs. I think it's a masterpiece by one of the great singer songwriters. some songs recorded in Muscle Shoals AL, contributions here from Grady Tate, Quincy Jones, Pete Carr, Airto, Maggie and Terre Roche, Paul Samwell-Smith

    Caravan - For Girls Who Grow Plump In The Night
    (1973, London) STERLING in the deadwax



    Some well produced prog rock. $1 grab last weekend - a record station promo copy with a beat-up cover but the record looks and plays NM.

    The KAOS call letters on the cover ....a local college station with interesting history including name from the Get Smart tv show. from wikipedia:
    KAOS 89.3 FM is a hybrid college-community radio station founded by Dean Katz of The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. When he traveled to Seattle to apply for the station license, his official papers had the radio station call letters as KESC (for "Evergreen State College.") However, unbeknownst to his adviser and almost everyone else, Katz had other ideas, being a fan of the TV show Get Smart. The license was granted under his surprise application and broadcasts began January 1, 1973. Since then, the station has been a mainstay in Olympia's local music scene, including a famous early appearance by Nirvana on April 17, 1987 (their second ever) and a Kurt Cobain solo acoustic performance on 1990 (both included on the Nirvana box set With the Lights Out). Today the station, which continues a music policy of at least 80% independent music, broadcasts in HD at a power of 1,100 watts and also streams live via the Internet. The station continues to offer free radio broadcasting training to any member of the community

    I don't think you can go wrong with that ELO.

    Hopefully you stayed dry down there, we had some fairly heavy showers at mid-day up here in the Seattle area with temps in the low 60s. minus the rain, I guess that's pretty great riding weather, certainly better than 95' and blistering sun.

    I ignored ELO when they were recording, but have come to appreciate them more this last year...Eldorado was the album that got me interested.

    No rain in PDX today...coolish , upper 60s, low 70s , partial clouds ....perfect riding weather...am going to ride thru the fall and winter and have been scouting wet riding gear in addition to LP's....had the soundtrack to "Lawrence of Arabia" today , but too beat up to buy...composed by Maurice Jarre , Jean Michel Jarre's father.

    Heart - Magazine
    (1977, Mushroom) 1978 re-mixed version; Mastered at Kendun recorders



    "Special limited edition" picture disk #3082. includes a nice cover of Harry Nilsson's Without You.
    includes a couple of songs recorded live in 1975 at the old Aquarius Tavern in North Seattle, aka Parker's Ballroom, up in my neck of the woods. Some history on the venue:

    Seattle’s venerable old Parker's Ballroom (which opened in 1930 on the "New Seattle-Everett Highway," now known as Aurora Avenue N) holds a unique place in Northwest music history. Like a few other local dancehalls, it spanned all of the sequential musical era’s from the wild jazz days of the Prohibition Era right on up through the forties swing scene, from the rise of rock ‘n’ roll in the fifties, to the psychedelic sixties, and onwards to the heavy metal, disco, and punk rock scenes of the seventies. Unlike most other historic dancehalls though, Parker’s still stands.

    Another great band, and the first that comes to mind for me in reference to the Canterbury scene, is The Soft Machine. I'm currently on the lookout for Soft Machine titles.
