TEN YEARS AFTER - THINK ABOUT THE TIMES: THE CHRYSALIS YEARS (1969- 1972)







2010 three CD release featuring albums plus rare tracks all recorded during their time on Chrysalis Records. Their fourth album, Ssssh., issued in August 1969, coincided with their breakthrough appearance at the Woodstock festival, a definite highlight of the subsequent film and LP of that show. Fifth album Cricklewood Green, issued in April 1970, featured their biggest UK chart hit with 'Love Like A Man'. 1971's A Space In Time showed a change in direction, no doubt inspired by the more acoustic sounds prevalent in the States at the time. As well as producing their biggest Stateside hit with 'I'd Love To Change the World', this set is completed by Rock & Roll Music to the World from 1972, a classic mix of the blues and rock 'n' roll that made the band such a successful live draw, with lead guitarist Alvin Lee hailed as one of the fastest players in the world. This set also includes rare b-sides and single edits, appearing on CD for the first time. - amazon.com

FLASH - FLASH IN THE CAN (1972)





Flash - In The Can (1972)

Tag : Flash



"Founded by ex-Yes guitarist Peter Banks, Flash showed how Yes also could have become, if banks hadn't been replaced by Steve Howe (and Tony Kaye by Rick Wakeman). (See my review about their first album, 'Flash'.) The music has a more ballad-like atmosphere, Colin Carter is no Jon Anderson, and Peter banks has a more jazzy style. On 'In the Can', Tony Kaye (also fired from Yes after two albums!) isn't contributing anymore (on their first album he appeared as a guest!), and that makes this album a keyboardless alternative for Yes, dominated by banks' great guitar playing. Like my collegue Progbear said: guitar-oriented epic prog, or Yes minus keyboards." - Paul de Graaf-ProgArchives

FLASH - FLASH 2 (1972)




"Formed by YES-members Peter BANKS on guitar and Tony KAYE on keyboards, FLASH are completed by guitarist-bass player Ray BENNETT (GUN), drummer Mike HOUGH and vocalist Colin CARTER. The BANKS/KAYE partnership was to last only one album, though after which KAYE quit FLASH to form the "Christian-progressive" band BADGER. The group carried on as a four-piece. Now, the band performs a powerful and energetic Progressive rock with less keyboards parts." - ProgArchives

BILL WITHERS - Lean on Me: Best of Bill Withers [1994]





Bill Withers - Lean on Me: Best of Bill Withers [1994]

Composer of two bona fide classics ("Ain't No Sunshine" and "Lean on Me") as well as tunes covered by everyone from Joe Cocker to Kiss, Withers sings with smooth, subtle phrasing that moves along over sinuous, sexy grooves. At times it all sounds so effortless that it's often easy to overlook how substantial his work really is. Never flashy, Withers's best songs burn with a kind of heat that lingers long after the last note has been played. This 18-song collection brings together a healthy collection of songs from this soulful singer-songwriter's remarkable early-'70s Sussex albums, including such hits and near hits as "Grandma's Hands," "Who Is He? (And What Is He to You?)," and the seriously funky "Use Me," as well as some gems from the later '70s (including "Lovely Day").

1. Ain't No Sunshine (Single Version)
2. Grandma's Hands
3. Lean On Me
4. Use Me
5. Kissing My Love
6. Who Is He? (And What Is He To You?)

JOHN MAYALL - BIG MAN BLUES




John Mayall – Big Man Blues (2012)

By the time John Mayall recorded this album in Los Angeles mid-1980 the core line-up of his band had played hundreds of shows together over the previous year, and were a tight and well-oiled electric Blues machine. This album encompasses the absolute contemporary experience, complete with airtight rhythm section, piercing guitar licks and Mayall’s fierce harmonica, and distinctively soulful vocals. “Big Man Blues” is a more than worthy addition to any Blues fan’s collection.As the elder statesman of British blues, it is John Mayall’s lot to be more renowned as a bandleader and mentor than as a performer in his own right. Throughout the ’60s, his band, the Bluesbreakers, acted as a finishing school for the leading British blues-rock musicians of the era. Guitarists Eric…
Clapton, Peter Green, and Mick Taylor joined his band in a remarkable succession in the mid-’60s, honing their chops with Mayall before going on to join Cream, Fleetwood Mac, and the Rolling Stones, respectively. John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, Jack Bruce, Aynsley Dunbar, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Andy Fraser (of Free), John Almond, and Jon Mark also played and recorded with Mayall for varying lengths of times in the ’60s.

RAINBOW - Ballads & Instrumentals




Rainbow – Ballads & Instrumentals (2012)

Rainbow (also known as Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow or Blackmore’s Rainbow) were an English rock band, controlled by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore from 1975 to 1984 and 1994 to 1997. It were originally established with American rock band Elf’s members, though over the years Rainbow went through many line-up changes with no two studio albums featuring the same line-up. In addition to lead singers Ronnie James Dio, Graham Bonnet, Joe Lynn Turner and Doogie White, the project consisted of numerous backing musicians. The band started out combining mystical lyric themes with neo-classical metal, but went in a more streamlined commercial style following Dio’s departure from the group.
