Blues with heart and soul. Superb dynamics. Steve Bell, blues harrp, is a son of legendary Carey Bell.
Superb Stratocaster guitar playing of Rudy Rotta.
Original signatures on front cover.
I wish a beautiful sunday to everybody. Today we have one hour bonus because of European "Winterzeit"-change.

Guitars played by John Tropea and Hiram Bullock.
Mediocre pressing.
1995 reissue. 180gr vinyl. Perfect dynamics. Clap hands and hats off to this superb US-pressing!
Looking at the front cover picture by Jean Dubuffet, 1948 "Tete d'une femme": "Good morning headache" instead of "Good morning heartache" (track B3).
Drug home 10 LP's yesterday, including some Fats Domino & Ray Charles made in Holland.

Holland was witty then!! They had great rock music in the 60ies till 80ies. Not fakes, but interesting music: Focus, Ekseption, Herman Brood, Vitesse and not to forget: Golden Earring.
no , that one wasn't from Holland ... others were and they have a EMIDISC label.
that actually is an early Electra label , google it.

Superb guitar playing by Gabor Szabo (5 tracks recorded 1963 in San Francisco) and Dennis Budimir (3 tracks recorded 1959 in Los Angeles).
Listen to short track B2: "Island Blues" is a genial, old-timey, slightly tongue-in-cheek excursion into early blues ground (cit:Leonard Feather on inner fold cover).
German mono original issue. Different writing on cover/label: These/There are the blues
Herb Ellis, guitar. Wild Bill Davis, hammond. Ray Brown, bass. Roy Eldridge, trumpet. Gus Johnson, drums.
What superb combination of musicians!
One for the island. Mono. 60 years old US vinyl. Plays very well though it's a little bit mishandled. It had to be played many many times, and that's OK.
Superbly driving guitar playing.
Roy Eldridge, trumpet. Stan Getz, tenor sax. Ray Brown, bass. Stan Levey, drums.

"Games people play", track B1, was a big hit 1968 here in Switzerland. Anybody knows the name of the Coral electric sitar player?
Electric sitar and a good voice - good memories.......

And also on this one it's only "Crimson and Clover". But the 1975 Bellaphon pressing is superior. What a perfect sound.
