It's one of those albums that reveals more with each listen. Did you see the Charlie Rose interview (PBS)?
All three were there......Plant, Krauss AND "Raising Sand" legendary (producer here) T Bone Burnette. Don't know if you can view past episodes online but it's worth a search, bobf.

Leonard Cohen's , " The Future" . from 1992. this album foretold what we now see. from false democracy to state sponsored torture. the music is good , too, with orchestra and chorus singers.
now, i'm in the mood for more positive music! maybe ABBA, or the Monkees!

| Woke up with Yardbirds songs going through my head, but couldn't find the CD, so was listening to the best of the Zombies on the way in to work, today - starting to get in the mood for the Rhythm Festival in Bedford at teh end of August; google it: it's one hell of a line-up! |

Two great ones, markk.
Have you got Holland?
Listening to that one. An amazing LP!!
Brian was a little too out of it & refused to participate, except for a "fairy tale" EP. The rest of the
boys came up with what I think was their best effort as a group without much help from Brian.
The label wanted a hit so they added two of Brian's older recordings, remixed for "Holland"........
"Sail On Sailor" & "Funky Pretty". Two great tracks upstaging the rest without even appearing to
record them. But the rest of the tracks by the Boys are great!!! Highly regarded, like Smiley Smile &
Wild Honey.

(Who'll be)"The Last to Die" (For Our Mistake), by Bruce Springsteen
Magic is a dark LP....Springsteen at his best.....The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle, Nebraska......
haven't gotten into much since, until now. This is a good one. War, disillusionment, my kind of happy tunes!

Kaleidoscope. the Los Angeles band of the 60's, not the U.K. one.
man, they were good! David Lindley and Chris Darrow were some of its members. i guess they have some things in common with LOVE, being that they hardly toured out of the west coast California scene, and were too ecclectic and ahead of the times to have been appreciated more in its time. but, WOW! GOOD STUFF!
I'M listenning to compilation of their 3 main albums recorded between 1967 and 1970.

I agree, Kaleidoscope were an excellent band. My first introduction was through an 80s sampler - Bacon From Mars. Since then I've hunted out other stuff by them.
But the UK band Kaleidoscope were pretty darned good too - and when they metamorphosed into Fairfield Parlour (same members, different name - go figure!), they produced one of my all-time favourite albums, 'From Home to Home', containing opening masterpiece 'Aries', which is in my top five songs ever.
Personally, currently listening to Blue Cheer - 'Vincebus Eruptum' - contains for me the DEFINITIVE version of Summertime Blues |
