Milestones Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 What the hell? This is so bad is nearly destroys my recent admiration for Coryell's talents. Singing is, for sure, not one of them! Quote
Teasing the Korean Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Posted September 8, 2013 The naked family aesthetic was a really horrid by-product of the hippie movement. Quote
7/4 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) bad idea. Edited September 8, 2013 by 7/4 Quote
kh1958 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 About the only Larry Coryell vocal that doesn't send me heading for cover is the first song on Fairyland; it's not that the vocal is any good, it's just the band is so good. Quote
mjzee Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Coryell's vocals ruined this album: But strangely enough, I saw/heard him do two concerts around this time of this material, and he did not sing. Very wise; the band was burning. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 I have zero problem with this. Then again, I have a soft spot for fey Apostolic Studios psych rock from the late '60s. Bring on the Chris Hills! And as far as naked family album covers go, this is a classic: Quote

Very wise; the band was burning. Ha! I remember putting this on the stereo 12-15 years ago and going Ugh! The other ones I picked up at the time were fine, including The Restful Mind; Live At Village Gate; Offering. Quote
B. Clugston Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Would love to hear Keiji Haino cover this. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Hah! Me too - Fushitsusha: The Coryell Covers! Quote
mjzee Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 OK, Keiji Haino's coming to Houston soon, so I guess I'd better bone up on him, as I know nothing of his work. Is he just a Brotzmann on guitar? Any titles you can recommend? Sorry for hijacking the Coryell thread. Quote

Bring earplugs--he's loud. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Isn't the Houston performance a vocal set? He's not playing as much guitar as he used to, right? Quote
mjzee Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Isn't the Houston performance a vocal set? He's not playing as much guitar as he used to, right? There's a night of a duo with Brotzmann. Not that Brotzmann's a shrinking violet... Quote
chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted September 11, 2013 Report Posted September 11, 2013 saw him last weekend, a reunion of 11th house (minus mike mandel, who could not make it last minute due to a health concern). fantastic concert Quote
