The Band - Cahoots. I've been going through a HUGE Band phase in the last few months. What an incredible group.

The Doors - 'Strange Days'.
Help me, please.....'Strange Days' is a much stronger LP than their debut, right?
Or is it just me?

I feel the self-titled has better heights, whereas Strange Days is more consistent as an album.

Yes, their voices meshed well for that reason as in other brother and sister groups.  But The Everly Brothers' vocal harmony was a very tight form based on diatonic triads as opposed to classic harmony.  Most of Phil and Don's lines could stand alone as melody lines.  In classic harmony, the singers' lines work well sung together but are not melodic alone.

I think the publishers of Love Me Do had the same problem

Scott 2 by Scott Walker (1968).

Played it yesterday morning and as I walked into the Fopp record shop near Leicester Square, whadya know, they were playing it in there.

Just for interest, why has Scott's music endured more (and this is my own opinion, it's not fact!) than Jimi Hendrix's?
In my recent clear out, I only kept one Jimi CD ('Axis: Bold As Love') as, much as I like the guy, I really can't see me ever getting into his stuff to any great degree again.

St Vincent's debut album Marry Me.  Yeah, she's different.  Sometimes I like different.

Can't say I'm actually listening to these yet but tomorrow I'm going into London to investigate the recent Japanese Atlantic Soul & R&B reissues on CD.

They're only £5 each (original track listing, original covers, no bonus tracks) and they look FANTASTIC.
The record labels of the 60s certainly knew how to catch the eye in a record shop, has there ever been better artwork in any discipline?

I'm going for the two Don Covay CDs from '65 and '66 and the Doris Troy one from '63 (George would definitely have approved) but I'll probably come away with more.

I've had my eye on those Atlantic titles for some time.

One of my best friends, who is a huge James Taylor fan, mentioned that 43 years ago today his recording of "You've Got a Friend: debuted on the Hot 100. I decided to celebrate by listening to Tapestry.  ;D
