What rock music are you listening to? Non-Jazz, Non-Classical.

I've had a delightful  time with this 3CD set:

I previously only knew (and loved) Barbara Lewis from her two big hits, "Hello, Stranger" and "Baby, I'm Yours", so I was curious to see what some  of the rest of her music sounded like. Some of the material included here has aged better than others, but there really is not a  "dud" track in  the lot.  I love  the sound of her voice and she was clearly a versatile performer, but that same versatility may have hampered her ability to form a core musical identity.

This is a great track which shoulda been a bigger hit --

Even the most jaded of studio musicians must have had some fun playing that strings chart.

Yesterday, while starting to read Carlos Santana's memoirs...

I really enjoyed that book.  Read it last summer.

And Welcome is probably my favorite Santana record.

From '77. I sense a good amount of Lee Perry Black Ark production inspiration on this one.

I am very pleased to see that foreign people can understand, like and even love flamenco. Other than Japanese 😊

I didn't understand it when I was 16, but I soon got it and have enjoyed it every time I've listened to it since then.

"King Kong" is awesome and Ian Underwood shines throughout the album.

Ian Underwood (and Don Preston) were on many of the film recording sessions I attended.  Nice guys and crack studio musicians.

I love that King Kong. It was one of my entry routes into jazz.

The whole record has a real special aura, at least on LP. The CD reissue was a real butcher’s job.
