Let's all celebrate the fact that perhaps the greatest female singer/songwriter of all time, Joni Mitchell, has finally reintroduced her repertoire to Spotify once more..........

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Great song. I'd love to go to that venue. Looks huge.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Bonn E Maiy, great voice.

Footloose, with dancing. All the sort of things I watched as a kid on rainy weekends.

60s garage nugget

 

[Vdubs]

A brilliant debut album in 1973, very nostalgic, and countless times have I heard this, but absolutely love it.

60s garage nugget

Could have been much more successful if they hadn't knocked back the management of Brian Epstein. This song for some reason always reminds me of the Pink Finks recording of Louie Louie done a year or two earlier. I have no idea how he got it but my brother somehow had this in his record collection of maybe a dozen singles. Back then you didn't buy a record without considerable thought on your choice.
EDIT: Produced by Joe Meek, who also produced Telstar by the Ventures. Using a shotgun he had taken from the drummer of the Tornado's, Meek murdered his landlady after she continually complained about his loud music. He then committed suicide at the age of 38. He suffered mental issues bought on by his heavy drug usage and once held a gun to the head of Mitch Mitchell to "inspire" his playing.
Meek was also a pioneer of recordings using overdubbing, sampling and reverb.

Some Aussie classic tunes turned up at full volume as I vacuum and do some cleaning around the house!

 

[dumb]

a lot of slow and chunky lately

the pernicious enigma. my dog walking album, also in my top 10.
the first few minutes has a weird almost neo-noir, smoky detective office feel, and a towering ending that takes nearly 10 minutes.







and some miscellaneous paradise lost in the car

if you ever get into the awkward situation of having to DJ a party, just play the 2 Many DJ's mix and hold some headphones to your ear..

& The Roadhouse Band

This is bit like slacker style country rock, though the first track here has a low-fi drum machine intro, longish songs with wry wordplay.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Vale Frank Ifield, one of the singers I loved as a young kid. Appropriate song title too.
