What's Playing Now

[Ducatista47]

The Velvet Underground White Light/White Heat. 1968.

Just to remind us how commercial the market is now, "I Heard Her Call My Name" was released as a single. I miss the audacity of those times. Influence wise, I consider this one of the most important records ever made. It is certainly my favorite VU album to listen to.

Thanks so much for jogging the memory on Pilgrimage - its quite the pleasant listen
Yet another album I needed to pull out and relisten to!

Actually, thank ALL of you for posting these forgotten gems!

Wishbone Ash - Pilgrimage
(1971, Decca)



twin lead guitars. I saw Wishbone Ash at the University of Washington probably in 1973 - it was quite a show with the long intricate guitar heavy instrumentals an early taste of progressive rock for me. I'm comparing this with an excellent 2nd copy that I found in the HPB clearance bin a few months back.

Ok, you got me now ..
After Wishbone Ash - Pilgrimage, I was in the mood for rock and
stumbled over Captain Beyond - 1st album ...
ahh, that early 70s Capricorn Records mood!

Dancing Madly Backwards indeed!

Santana - Viva Santana!
(1988, Columbia) MASTERDISK in the deadwax; mastered by Howie Weinberg & Joe Gastwirt at Masterdisk, NYC



Listening to sides 3/4. a $4 HPB pickup from last year. This is a 3LP compilation with 30 tracks (8 previously unreleased), and a 24 page booklet with discussion of songs from Carlos Santana including this one for the 8:49 Soul Sacrifice recorded live at Woodstock:

If you've ever walked around New York at five in the morning and you scream, or clap your hands, you hear how it reverberates off the buildings. Woodstock was like that only everyone was reverberating. You walk up there and it's literally an ocean of hair, teeth, hearts, hands, ears, as far as you can see.
