Cheeky one this, it's an entire LIVE album. Zep in 1970, several years before Plants voice had melted his vocal chords, and at a time when Jimmy's hands still knew where the chords were. It's also mixed in such a way that Bonham and Jones' work can be heard for the brilliance it is. Basically this is the oment when no other rock band on earth came even close to Zep's brilliance.

A fine cover of the Elmore James classic.

 

I am not a fan of Metal, but a very long time ago before that word was coined there was seriously heavy rock of which Black Sabbath's first two albums were the personification - I balked at Masters of Reality; it lacked charm in any form. One of my favourite tracks on their second album Paranoid was War Pigs and here is a 1974 live video from California. Keep your eyes on Bill Ward and Geezer Butler, it's mesmerising stuff, a rhythm section to rival even John Paul Jones and Bonzo..................

Cleveland's finest purveyors of Avant-Garage for the last 40 years. Pere Ubu.

This takes me back. Was at the concert. Still one of the finest gigs I've ever attended.

I've been listening to Tony Visconti's remaster of David Bowie's Lodger album. It's amazing. The original Lodger was quite thinly produced, quite a compressed sound. The Visconti remaster on the other hand has great depth and detail. If you're a Bowie fan of any vintage, give it a listen. There's an article in this month's Mojo magazine that mentions this remaster and explaining that Bowie was never happy with the original. Apparently he was happy with what Visconti had done with the Lodger material.

The remaster can be found on the new Bowie box set "A New Career in a New Town" - you can find it on Spotify etc...
