Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2013
With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

On vinyl.
Haim, how is it? I don't think these performances ever made it to compact disc, which in the case of Zimerman is probably not because DG couldn't make some money on it. Zimerman himself may not be too happy with his early work? Rumour has it he is very picky on recording quality.

Has a blistering version of 24 Hours at a Time. One of the classic Southern Rock albums.
The great James Govan singing Ain't No Sunshine live in Beale Street, not sure from what year. Classic version.
A superb live double album with some very tasty slide guitar :-
delicious..
How did you find this album?
I had the original from many years ago, and i thought it was one of the worst albums ever!
Maybe its a bad memory?

And it was thinking about that very cut that prompted me to put it on!
Vinyl arrived today ..VG music & SQ. The vinyl is still only £7.61+ postage on Amazon....
More of the same, not in a bad way though.
Thanks for the tip Graham & Steve, this really is great (those who like ... with Eric Clapton - A Hard Road - Crusade era Bluesbrakers quite possibly like this too).
(European EMI 2013 release, not a MOV item as previously indicated - apparently there was a mistake on the web site of the local record shop)
For those who might not know there are also quite impressive other musicians included beside earlier mentioned Rod and Jeff.
Personnel (from the album cover)
- Jeff Beck — electric guitars, acoustic guitar on "Greensleeves"; lap steel guitar on "Shapes of Things"; bass guitar on "Ol' Man River"
- Rod Stewart — lead vocals
- Ronnie Wood — bass guitar, backing vocals on "Let Me Love You"
- Micky Waller — drums
Additional personnel
- Nicky Hopkins — piano on "Morning Dew" and "Blues Deluxe"
- John Paul Jones — Hammond organ on "Ol' Man River"
- Keith Moon — timpani on "Ol' Man River"
Not played this for a very long time must say it stands the test of time......
Original Vinyl
180g vinyl
Their best, I think, since the first album.
one of the better progressive concept albums, saw the version live with classical musicians..
A recent reissue of a 1990 recording.
Just about to hear my very first listen : )
Debs
Watching a video of John Hiatt at the Telluride Blues and Brew festival. Great show.
