Artwork | DR Analysis | 817 / 212 mb incl. recovery | Fsonic, FF & FP | Folk | 1969

The result was a fantastic debut appearance, and if the cult of Drake consistently reads more into his work than is perhaps deserved, Five Leaves Left is still a most successful effort.

Speakers Corner 180g LP / Cat.#: RCA LSP-1956

This was televison's first big hit music track. The title theme from this series produced by Blake Edwards is one of the finest things Henry Mancini ever wrote. Here is driving, popular jazz, with a beat and style.

And that’s the great thing about the Black Keys in general and Brothers in particular: the past and present intermingle so thoroughly that they blur, yet there’s no affect, just three hundred pounds of joy.

Johnny Winter - Second Winter

Friday Music 180g 2xLP-Set ~ Cat.#: FRM 9947 ~ Pressed @ RTI

Johnny's second Columbia album shows an artist in transition. He's still obviously a Texas bluesman, recording in the same trio format that he left Dallas with. But his music is moving toward the more rock & roll sounds he would go on to create.

Artwork | DR Analysis | 801 / 209 mb incl. recovery | FSonic, FF & FP | ProgRock | 1973
original French LP / Cat.#: Vertigo 6499 693

... the record represents a moment in time, for sure -- Vangelis seems stuck between rock, pop, and epic scope -- but for the same reason it's an intriguing, engaging listen, particularly for completists.

Original UK 2xLP-Set (White Label Test pressing) / Cat.#: DAD 4015

Recorded at a Los Angeles performance from the Into the Labyrinth tour, the astounding Toward the Within shows that the band's magic was clearly not simply something created in studio.
