I just looked, and nothing about Muse except a mention of that dubious release in the liner notes. Orignal source, leader, and cover art all as they should be.

The late Humphrey Lyttelton, whose wit is sorely missed, used to say that "in super Hi-Fi" meant "re-recorded in a bathroom". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 15 January 9 hours ago, Brad said: I found a copy of this LP recently. Since American was largely a studio for hire and their work appeared on a number of labels it can be challenging to get a sense of their work overall, certainly more so than for Stax or even Muscle Shoals/Fame. And after Chips Moman closed shop most of 'em moved to Nashville and get paid 3 times as much to do less creative work. I recently picked up a Petula Cark LP that was recorded at American, not sure if it ever made it to CD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 16 February Searched but didn't see this mentioned: Snooky Young's Horn of Plenty doesn't look to have had a CD release, nor any repress of its initial LP pressing back in '79. Line up includes Ray Brown, Jack Hanna, John Collins & Ross Tompkins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
