I love the original vinyl, but the deluxe edition added so many definitive songs it made a classic that much better.
I’m not really well versed in the pressing of LZ albums. I don’t think that’s in the dead wax since the WB logo in the bubble, mid 70’s. This copy is basically unplayed and mint, a nice listen but I doubt it’s anything special. I had this on cassette when I was about 12 and doubt I’ve played it more than a couple times since then. Nice to hear it with fresh ears, it’s a fine album. One album is enough for me, plants vocals are a bit much.
Steve Earle - Copperhead Road 1988, Uni Records This record hits a sweet spot for me in Steve Earle's catalog. I've had a hard time connecting with a few, but most of what I've heard so far is great. This is my favorite at the moment.
A lot of his albums tend to smear together and are forgettable for me. His cover albums have been really good. Guy Clark, Townes van zant, his son, the one he did with del and I’m really looking forward to the one coming out of Jerry Jeff Walker songs.
As we're in Europe and more specifically France returning subliminally suggested to this slab again, one of the great psychedelic albums of the period (69) recorded in France. Fertile period for the avant/out scene with many labels arising and festival support, proving rock was tame by comparison. Funny these artists don't figure into the hipster scene we're hearing about. Folks were missing something. This plays lime a head full of DMT with Neil at the wheel of abus to LaHonda calipers on fire as the kazoo gallery dons masks of mirth yet too much heavier. Some tasty AEC from '69, a session that also yielded the fine "Tutankhamun". Great pressig and the color evokes the fire within. Serious drums/percussion dynamism. Ancient to the future.
Rock-Soul group, The Chambers Brothers can really get people up and dancing - how about this one!?!? “I Can’t Turn You Loose”
Used to have this on a cassette, but the sound was pretty ropey. Nice to hear a decent version at last
