What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XIV)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 31 December 2017
On the eve of a new year, it's time for a new thread.
Last year's thread can be found here:
John McNeil Quartet - The glass room
Nice jazz by trumpeter John McNeil and his quartet. I like the combination of guitar and trumpet in this quartet.
- Drums – Mike Hyman
- Electric Bass – Tom Warrington
- Guitar – Bill Bickford
- Trumpet – John McNeil
Original vinyl
Why? It just sort of popped into my head really. Not played it in years.

If you like that one, but haven't heard this one, I'm sure you'll enjoy it too!
Five Live Yardbirds ............... recorded in 1964, at the Marquee, when the British Blues explosion was just getting underway, not exactly
the greatest SQ, but it does capture the club atmosphere very well ................... best of all, surprise, surprise, ................it's on Tidal!
Cheers Dave,
Just listening to it now off Youtube no streaming going on here...I am in the dark ages with streaming !
Sounds just as you said but could imagine the atmosphere of The Marquee.Probably seen 10 bands over the years.Loved its intimate feel and the heat.With the Blues program now gone with Paul Jones on a Monday night you have given me a perfect Blues tonic...after Sonny Boy and The Yardbirds at work what better than getting home and getting a nice pointer to more.A great Blues album which I love at the moment is Feel The Blues - By Jimmy Dawkins...get that off Tidal" And give "So Good to me" a play....Brilliant track.
Wishing you a fine musical night 
Lots of Led Zep playing on here recently and I just had to join in.
Ringo Starr - Starr Struck,Best Of Vol 2; a post Apple collection from '89

On a 1992 CD. Their masterpiece (released in 1981, it's possibly the first record to feature digital sampling).
Dusty in Memphis, on cd with both mono and stereo mixes.Superb.
