Stevie Wonder : Music of My Mind 1972 Release

 

Astonishing to see he was *only* 22 when he released this now a classic.

Contains my all time favourite 'Super Woman' ( Where Were you? ) He plays almost everything in the entire album but this tune has a wonderful lyrical solo guitar playing by Buz Feiten. ( about 5:20 min in ) Great lyrics, too.

Neil Young. American Stars 'n Bars (1977). On HDCD from 2003. In retrospect its a rather bizarre assemblage of Young's music at the time.

Just finished listening to this on original vinyl.  Preferable to Star's 'n Bars Joe.

I bought at the music store last Saturday a CD Box Set, including this one, without knowing RM had recorded blues before Rumours.

Then check out Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac and Mr Wonderful Erich. You're in for a treat.

Tried some Ice Dragon samples from Tidal and decided on, 

 

Paranoid by Black Sabbath instead.

Deadwing by Porcupine Tree      (2005)

Heard Haitian Divorce on the radio this morning so I thought I'd give this a spin on the LP12.

Posted on: 19 November 2015 by Kevin-W

I love that album, and "HD" especially.

Haitian Divorce - Probably my favourite Steely Dan track

Posted on: 19 November 2015 by Borders Nick

Played this a lot over the years - some surprisingly funky grooves .  Nice rich sound + the usual exemplary ECM production.

Posted on: 19 November 2015 by hungryhalibut

That's a top album, in fact all of his are really excellent.
