JSngry Posted April 12, 2021 Author Report Posted April 12, 2021 Good enough record, but hardly a "durable classic" either. Can't go wrong with Moody, but there are some records that you can go right with than others. Still, Warner Brothers probably paid him well (enough), and there certainly was a budget here. The man deserved all of that. Also, this is one of those annoying records where they put the blingy stuff up front and the meatier stuff after. If anybody does this one, stick it out. Moody come through. Quote

Hope to be there in a few weeks when my folks' second jabs take effect I will pass on your regards. Breaking up the journey because, midway through the organ solo on "Favours" off Dr. Lonnie Smith's Afro-Desia, the three year old suddenly uncovered the fountain of youth, so to speak. It's going to be a long drive... Quote

JSngry Posted April 12, 2021 Author Report Posted April 12, 2021 Yeah, it's wild, Moody ripping like Tab and/or Willie Smith on some things, honking on others, BirdBop always....he sounds pretty howl-y, actually. Strong stuff and not always "pretty". In fact, almost never pretty, actually. It's deeper than pretty. Quote
Bluesnik Posted April 12, 2021 Report Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) 6 hours ago, Referentzhunter said: That's a really great one. Produced by David Bowie and with the 90s revived (through the movie Trainspotting) title track on it. No, I was mistaken. I mixed it up with the slightly later The Idiot, which actually was produced by Bowie when they lived together in Berlin. That period, that gave birth to the Berlin trilogy (Low, Heroes and Lodger) in the late 70s, is my favorite Bowie. Edited April 12, 2021 by Bluesnik production credits cleared up Quote
