Totally. It won him the only Oscar award of his career.

Now:

Rambo - First Blood


Don't have that one.  Love the Star Trek album.  Thread duty:

Just landed this one from the local record store:

Fantastic release:

Sound quality is excellent and the playing is incredible!

Wise words from Que:

Never waste a good reason for a purchase....  ;)

There are three bands that record shop have trouble keeping their used vinyl in the bins and where even the poorest pressings seem  to sell:

Led Zep
Pink Floyd
and The Allman Brothers

Gold Knight

Robin Trower--Long Misty Days and In City Dreams. This is just  simply some  great ethereal Hendrix inflected music of the highest order!

Do you have this one, Bogey?  As essential as the classic Live At Fillmore East release imo.  If you are a fan of the original ABB lineup, then this is essential.

Listening a lot to Exai since it's release. Good and solid Ae. Favourite: nodezh and cloudline. Cloudline is Ae funk :)

Atoms for Peace - Amok: This is basically Thom Yorke (known from Radiohead) The Eraser II. All Thom Yorke is welcome. It's so great that he is and IDM fanboy.

Excellent soundtrack, with Boris (and guitarist Michio Kurihara), Sunn O))) & Boris, Earth (and guitarist Bill Frisell), The Black Angels, etc.

No.  Not a big fan.  However, I do see their draw. Just interesting how well their vinyl sells with those other two heavyweights.

Thanks for the response, Bill.

That is certainly interesting regarding their vinyl.

The original, "classic" version of the ABB is very different from the animal(s) that followed and share that name to this day.  I'm currently awaiting for the Duane Allman retrospective, Skydog, to arrive here any day now.

Cheers!

Well, they still have their work being reproduced on higher end vinyl, so that means they are still very popular....at least the money points that way. :)

Might just put the songs Object, Woman and Man and Your Party on repeat.

Ok, repeat I couldn't do, got Yoshi in my mind, had to switch gears...


Sergeant Rock

I've been in a nostalgic 60s pop mood recently. Right  now, The Best of Jackie DeShannon ("When You Walk in the Room" "Needles and Pins" "What the World Needs Now is Love" "Put a Little Love in Your Heart")




From a certain angle she looked remarkably like Elke Sommer.

Love this album, Greg!

Absolutely love it. . .

Have you heard their latest, The Terror, by any chance?
