My daughter gave me this album for Christmas.  It recorded a few months before his death. It is super funky.

 

 

Vintage Miles is some of my very favorite music of all time.

 

I'm talking his classic be-bop stuff from the late '50s...around that era.  "Kind of Blue" is one of the greatest albums ever recorded IMO.


But then at a certain point, in the early '70s with stuff like "***** Brew" he went insane, and never came back.

 

I can't stand his later stuff.

I had posted two live concerts of Thee Oh Sees a couple of weeks ago. A while ago they changed their name to Oh Sees, and the sound turned a bit away from their earlier garage rock days. If you watch the following clip, I have one question. In the second song (with the simple title "C"), after every line that John Dwyer sings, there is the refrain "doup...doup...doup". Who is singing the "doups"? No other band member seems to have a mike for vocals and none of them seems to move their lips.

I always loved that DJ Shadow song.  The sample is a great song, and even more powerful IMO

RIP Mark Lanegan.  I always thought Screaming Trees were criminally underappreciated.  Layne, Chris, and now Mark gone- 3 of the greatest voices in rock history.  Whos greatest voice alive today?  Maynard James Keenan comes immediately to mind

According to the LyricsFreak web site, the "doups" are vocals; they transcribe them as "uh".

 

Oh Sees – C Lyrics

[Verse 1]
First you can see above the burning boat (Uh, uh, uh)
I squint my eyes but I still don't know (Uh, uh, uh)
I've been smelling fear on you (Uh, uh, uh)
Burning buildings, morning dew (Uh, uh, uh)

The pre-Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood Mac versions were so much better. Here are even earlier examples of the Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green...

I have seen this, excellent stuff. I liked the middle Mac quite a bit too. The first part of the one I posted is maybe the only live stuff from Bob Weston on the internet... If you can find more I'd sure like to see it.

 

Future Games is an excellent lp imo... I used to have the release with the yellow cover instead of the traditional light green one. Mystery to Me is great as well.

 

Perfect/McVie was a great move for the band at the time... fresh out of Chicken Shack, the girl had some blues in her for sure which was the root of The Mac. She drew the cover for Kiln House. Once the bleating lamb joined the group I was done... the fake gypsy crap turned me off immediately.

 

Dave Walker... Savoy Brown,  sang on Penguin and maybe something else.. I'm not sure.

 

No idea if you've ever heard this but this is as fine a rock blues album as anyone's, I keep a copy :

To promote the Austin, TX scene (both our kids are UT)...

 

 

And as I have a special place in my heart for everything that does not have the standard 4/4 time signature...
