Anyone remember this UK folk singer, active around 1970?My father really liked him, and I'm trying to track down any available recordings.
Has anyone heard the new remastered analogue version of the later Goldbergs, the difference is unerving and not just from a sound point of view?

I wouldn't have been seen dead with an Aerosmith album, but then I heard their new blues and R&B album 'Honkin on bobo'. Had to swallow my prejudices and go get it.

I'm tempted to get the album, as I particularly like 'You're Gone'.Your comments please.
A newish singer/songwriter worth checking out is Mindy Smith. Light country/pop style, at first the songwriting didn't grab me, but it is growin' on me. The voice is to die for. Looking forward to seeing Ms Smith in Pdx on the 17th opening for Nickel...
I'm looking for a good recording of any Jimi Hendrix material. I have the best of 'experience Hendrix' album on the MCA label but sound quailty is very poor, IMO. I wonder why people like Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan were not recorded very well.

Have I been misunderstanding what R&B- Rhythm and Blues means in terms of music for the last 30 years. Surely, to me, it means stuff like Nine below zero, George Thorogood etc which is a blues style with rhythm. But in the back of my mind I think I'm wrong and its a soul style.

I'm no donkey here this is the hobby of my life, I just feel so ashamed if I had it wrong and would like to appologise to...
