paul secor Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 (edited) Earlier today: The Raw Harmonica Blues of Charlie Sayles (Dusty Roads) - one of the best blues records issued in the 1970s. Charlie Sayles was a truly fine harp player. Edited November 21, 2006 by paul secor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Elvin Jones/Richard Davis; Heavy Sounds. (UK Impuse stereo-sounds pretty horiible) 80s MCA pressing? The mid-70s pressings sound pretty good on the whole, to my ears. Just about to spin: Stanley Turrentine 'Another Story' (BN Liberty blue/white stereo) Horace Silver 'In Pursuit of the 27th Man' (BN Liberty blue label stereo) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patricia Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) Does anyone remember the film which Robert Stigwood did, I think, as a follow-up to his huge success with Saturday Night Fever? It was Bugsy Malone, a gangster flick, with an all-child cast. The machine guns shot whipped cream. The only two I recognized were a very young Scott Baio and an equally young Jodie Foster. But, the entire cast was amazingly good. Well, I was routing around at a second-hand store and found the soundtrack. It was by Paul Williams and the film was directed by Alan Parker, who went on to do "Angel Heart, another out-of-the-mainstream project, which is one of my favourites. In any case, all the music and lyrics for Bugsy Malone were original compositions and were based on the typical music of the period in which the film was set. The liner notes were written by Alan Parker and were an explanation of just why he would take on such an unusual project. This is a really interesting album. Not quite authentic jazz-age music, but it does have the right feeling. Many of the scenes are set in a speakeasy called Fat Sam's Grand Slam. My oldest daughter, who is now twenty-seven, loved this as film as a kid, as did her younger sister. They still remember much of the music. Fifty cents well-invested.

That's even less than I paid for Baba Maal's "Nomad soul". I was rooting around the back of a record shop in Senegal and the proprietor came back brandishing this album. "You must buy this! It was specially made for white people!" "Oh no, I don't want anything like that," I said. He kept insisting; I kept insisting. He kept lowering the price and eventually I bought it for about 30p. It's fuckin' awful! MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
