jeffcrom Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 Jim Robinson (Smoky Mary). This fine 1976 album is Big Jim's last. I bought it in Preservation Hall last month. I was tickled to once again see vinyl for sale at the Hall (new and vintage); on my first visit (in 1990), I bought The December Band, Volume 2 and Kid Howard's Sam Morgan Revisited there, and felt like the records were as legendary as the venue itself. And I know that those titles won't mean much to most folks here, but they're among the best New Orleans-style recordings of the 1960s. Quote

His Boy Elroy Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 Another one I snagged this weekend. 'Not entirely what I was expecting. Recorded in '68, released in '75, I believe on Black Lion. I dig Barney Kessel, but this one seemed to be recorded with an eye on trying to win over the masses, with a good bit of late '60's style pop and folkisms dispersed throughout, giving it a rather "dated" overall vibe. Not an essential Kessel album by any means, although I wouldn't call it bad, and it definitely has some inspired moments. Quote

Ooh - yeah, I gotta make a trek to Vancouver to hang with you guys. It's cheaper to fly here than to buy a copy of Lacy's The Wire. Homefromtheforest has an incredible record collection as many of you might have gathered from the recent blindfold test. Quote
