  1. like this as much as anything from this century, YMMV. The whole album, not just this cut.
  2. Both Bobby Timmons' and Don Patterson's Holiday Soul albums have been reissued (that's right, Prestige gave two successive catalog numbers the same name!). Neither is genius, but the're both good, greasy fun. Solid 'B's.
  3. Thanks.
  4. Anyone heard this? I was thinking of getting the records store day version on vinylt 'cause it's got some extra, but it's $40, real money to me...
  5. OK, I'm in.

  7. Was (Mose Allison) When I become was and we become were Will there be any sign or a trace of th' lovely contour of your face And will there be someone around With essentially my kinda sound When am turns to was and now is back when Will someone have moments like this Moments of unspoken bliss And will there be heroes and saints Or just a dark new age of complaints When I become was and we become were Will there be any Susans and Ralphs Lookin' at old photographs And wondering aloud to a friend
  8. I remember eating in places that had those on every booth/table. Don't know how it could've been economic....

  10. Maybe they could package it with a jug of whiskey?

  12. Some pretty fine stuff there, and pretty good notes as well. Don't know the whole history well enuff to judge beyond that. Am I right to assume that with these you get the 5 albums as originally issued, no outtakes, no alternates?
  13. I'm so tired of stuff like this, not even sure why, just done with it.
  14. I'm glad someone is sticking up for the later work, but IMHO "Being With You", "Cruising", etc. are barely songs at all (neither is "Ooh Baby Baby"), however well sung they are. And yes, songwriting still matters to me, now, today, always.

    Smokey

    http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/7564784/aloe-blacc-joe-walsh-smokey-robinson-gershwin-prize-pbs I love Smokey, even though I'd have to say his period of really great writing lasted only about 5-6 years. Discuss...
  16. "go off the side of the board" I've never seen this as a musical metaphor, have you?
  17. The several times I saw him with Sonny, he seemed a solid and calm guy.
  18. and the bass lick from The Sidewinder immediately came into my head...no conscious thought necessary. So thanks for that, and everything else.
  19. Enjoyed what i heard of him 20+ years ago, haven't kept up...anyone want to fill me in?
  20. Nothing is revealed...
  21. I've always enjoyed Kenny when I've heard him, whether live with Miles (Twice IIRC) or on the radio or whatever, but if this is trly his best album, that's sac. @nd rate hard bop revival followed by 2nd rate '70s R&B revival followed by Wayne Sharoters Left Nut...meh! Or maybe I'm having a bad day.
  22. That might take two degrees!
  23. JD Allen, Grafitti or Derek Bailey, Ballads; depends on where the're coming from...
