What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.VIII)

Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011

With 2012 almost 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.

This was a side project headed by Donald Fagen while Steely Dan were on a bit of a sabbatical in 1991.  Donald Fagen, Boz Scaggs, Phoebe Snow and Micheal McDonald got together to perform a series of shows backed by an outstanding 16 person backing band. The shows were properly recorded and the "best", is here. Certainly the tracks here impress and are highly recommended to any Steely Dan fans. Overall think smooth jazz rock and soul in the vein of Steely Dan and Micheal McDonald recorded superbly well.

+1.  It's excellent.  G

Just checked it out on Amazon samples - a previously loved copy is on the way!  Thanks for turning me on to this one guys!

On CD.

These two discs feature live-in-the-studio recordings made by The Beatles for BBC Radio between 1962 and 1965.Over half of these 56 songs are covers, many of which were never officially released.

A little bit of the Beatles. To show solidarity towards the people of Liverpool, whist watching the football with the sound off.

John,

 

It does sound good. Quite a 'heavy' album with great drum and bass (not in the present sense). Produced by John Lodge of the Moody Blues but the music is more like that of Free than the MB's. Unfortunately not many sold so it is hard to find on original vinyl and now quite expensive, £50+. I'm not aware that it has been reissued on vinyl.
