What Are You Listening To? February 2018

[Ojai Sam]

The Temptations - Masterpiece (1973)

This one is s-o-o-o good. You could call it a...oh, never mind. They already did.

 

[Pops]

Irish Coffee - Irish Coffee (1971)

Excellent Belgian hard rock with proggy elements. @Pops probably already knows about this one.

Not on my radar...will check it out, thanks!

I never fully appreciated Ronnie's contributions to the Faces, Small and otherwise, until running across his solo work recently.

I read an old interview with Lane that was recently published in Shindig magazine. He left the Faces at their peak - said he lost interest in the band when Rod the Mod began buying his clothes on Carnaby St. Lane's later work with Slim Chance is stunning.

Brian Eno & David Byrne - My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts (1981)

 

[Pops]

Yellow Eyes - Immersion Trench Reverie ********* My pick for the best album of 2017

 

[Pops]

Not on my radar...will check it out, thanks!

Initial reaction: a bit of a Family ripoff...especially when considering the timing of the release. That being said, I think they do a nice job of capturing the Chappo vocal vibe, but (unfortunately) minus the Poli Palmer rhythmic input.
