pasta Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 (edited) circle in the square november 68th great gorge hurricane jane upon this rock animal why all these cti lp's are not on disc is beyond me......aside from outback and moon germs, that is.....

Bill B Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 Greed and stupidity on the part of CTI. Quote
Big Al Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 No kidding. Thankfully I've been able to just about complete my vinyl collection of his CTI output. Penny Arcade is worth it for the Headhunters-meets-Stevie-Wonder take on "Too High." HELLUVA groooove! Quote
Big Al Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 animal From which LP is this track? Quote
BFrank Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 No "Follow Your Heart" from the Joe Farrell Quartet album? (which also should be on CD) Quote
Niko Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 just got outback and wondered whether the final track had made your list... it did november 68th Quote
Daniel A Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 No "Follow Your Heart" from the Joe Farrell Quartet album? (which also should be on CD) It was issued as an Epic CD some time in the 80s, but copies are scarce these days. Quote
Stefan Wood Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 Upon This Rock and Canned Funk are great. WHy his albums weren't all reissued is beyond me. Quote
Bill B Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 Mosaic Contemporary was to have issued a CD of the 2 LPs "Follow Your Heart" and "Outback" but extra musical considerations derailed this project. Quote
pasta Posted September 8, 2008 Author Report Posted September 8, 2008 glad to see all the love for joe farrell here...........love his playing, and he was taken from us far too soon.....the cti stuff is PERFECT for mosaic contemp......peace...... Quote
Big Al Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 Hell, I'd buy a Mosaic BOX of his complete CTI recordings if there was even a remote possibility of it ever seeing the light of day. Quote
BFrank Posted September 9, 2008 Report Posted September 9, 2008 Hell, I'd buy a Mosaic BOX of his complete CTI recordings if there was even a remote possibility of it ever seeing the light of day. HELLyeah! Quote
Chas Posted September 10, 2008 Report Posted September 10, 2008 Upon This Rock and Canned Funk are great. FWIW , I'd rank those the least of Farrell's six CTI sides , largely because of Joe Beck . I'd rate Moongerms and Outback at the top , followed by Quartet and Penny Arcade . Quote
captainwrong Posted September 10, 2008 Report Posted September 10, 2008 Hell, I'd buy a Mosaic BOX of his complete CTI recordings if there was even a remote possibility of it ever seeing the light of day. HELLyeah! Same here, even though I own almost all the vinyl. The records get played a lot, it'd be nice to have clean copies. Quote
pasta Posted September 10, 2008 Author Report Posted September 10, 2008 Chas- not a fan of Joe's, huh? outback is a fave of mine......then it's tough to say....been spending a lot of time with upon this rock.......peace Quote
Big Al Posted September 10, 2008 Report Posted September 10, 2008 Upon This Rock and Canned Funk are great. FWIW , I'd rank those the least of Farrell's six CTI sides , largely because of Joe Beck . I'd rate Moongerms and Outback at the top , followed by Quartet and Penny Arcade . Canned Funk is the only Farrell CTI I haven't heard. Have to agree about Upon This Rock, though. It's okay, but nowhere near a Moon Germs or a Penny Arcade. Here's how I would rate the five I've heard: Moon Germs Penny Arcade Outback Quartet Upon This Rock Quote
BFrank Posted September 11, 2008 Report Posted September 11, 2008 I like Joe Beck on those albums. Apparently they're sampled quite frequently, too. Quote
