  Billy F Gibbons - The Big Bad Blues.

  The Reverend gets back to where it all began with ZZ Top ................ "a superb collection of down and dirty, raw rock ‘n’ roll blues, with

  one of the world’s finest guitarists working in the blues-rock idiom – clearly relishing the chance to celebrate his roots."

Looking forward to Friday's release of All Them Witches new album 'ATW' on Friday. If the rest of the album is going to be as good as the tracks available to those that have pre-ordered, then it's going to be a smoking hot triumph of psychedelic, stoner blues based desert rock.

"Dylan's Gospel" by Brothers and Sisters . First heard their version of All Along the Watchtower on FIP Radio Paris a couple of years ago and bought the CD . Recorded around 1970 I think and definitely worth a listen .

(1971)

The Doors - L.A. Woman

Unsure where to go after playing All Them Witches I glanced this in the virtual library. It's one of my favourite Doors albums and this Steve Hoffman remaster for the Japanese Elektra pressing in 1994 is probably the best (digital source) that I've listened to.

Yes, I admit it's in my collection. However, I don't think AC-DC were ever as good after Bon Scott departed.

An old favourite of mine.  Suzanne Vega has pretty much done all these songs again since but the original versions still have a lot going for them.

ProStudioMasters is 24/44.1, not 24/192 as I posted earlier.  Sorry about that.

Pink Floyd - Meddle

Yesterday I went to  (Pink Floyd drummer) Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets gig at London's Roundhouse.  Pink Floyd famously opened the venue on Oc. 15 1966, performing alongside The Soft Machine at an "All Night Rave" to launch the underground newspaper International Times. At the gig they played Pink Floyd back catalogue pre Dark Side of the Moon: The Piper at the Gates of Dawn to Meddle

Having enjoyed some early Suzanne Vega, I thought I'd go next for some early Mary Black
