Blind Faith's Presence Of The Lord, from the one and only '69 LP.  A shame they were so short lived.
 
 

Reminds of a cd I bought in Korea many years ago, I was just window shopping with no real intention of buying anything until I saw it ..... “ The Best of Eric Crapton “... [emoji23] this song was on there and in brackets were the songwriters E Crapton: E Crapton : S Windows !! ( instead of Winwood !! ).

My copy is long gone and all that remains is this googled image

Anyhoo, I digress, here is Derek Trucks showing off his distinctive style !!

Now that's funny.  Asians come up with some of the funniest English misspellings.  I once had a photo of the Cuntry Club in Thailand.  Wanted to go but the image didn't have enough info.  LOL

Sandy Denny's voice was unique. Is there anyone today in the English folk field with an outstanding voice?

I hope so. Here is Celia Humphris in Trees, still alive and living in France.

The longer this song goes on, the more beautiful it is.

 

I could never make the claim that a particular band or artist is my favourite.  Too much variety and uniqueness.  Although, I can say Sandy Denny has always been one of my favourite female vocalists.  She had an absolutely angelic voice.  On the extreme opposite end of the spectrum you have Janis.  LOL.  Whom I enjoy listening to as much as Sandy.

 

Celia Humphris is very close to Sandy.  And thanks so much bannork for turning me on to Trees and this song.  I've not heard of Trees before.  And you're on the mark when you said the song is more beautiful as it goes on.  I'm posting and am only halfway through the song.

 

The late 60's and early 70's were the heyday for British folk rock.  I didn't know too many people stateside during that era who truly got into it.  My older brother and sister did, and I can thank them for bringing me along.  It was another wonderful genre to add to all of the others which, taken together, truly made the 60's and 70's so great for music.

 

I'll have to check out some more by Trees but I'll post this one since it's a favourite folk tune of mine.  In fact, I just posted Fairport Convention's version of it with Sandy on vocals.  Thanks again, bannork, for that truly lovely tune.

Renate Knaup, what a woman. I've been in love with her since 1972.

 

What is about this woman that has bannork so entranced?  I had to check it out myself.  Well, move over rover and let Tippy take over.  What a fine specimen of German women.  I'd love to taste her sauerkraut and share my bratwurst with her, too.

And a bit more risque . . . sweet dreams tonight, bannork.  LOL.

And thanks again for the new music.  The 70's produced some very fine krautrock.  Lots of progressive stuff, such as Can.  Ash Ra Tempel (active 1970~1976) put out some great music and I believe I've posted them before.  Here's a short, spacey number off of their '73 LP Starring Rosi.

 

 

I believe I had posted Whoopee before.

Here's a classic which most likely pre-dates most of us . . . Bull Moose Jackson on Big Ten Inch from '52.  The reference to "my big ten inch" was so risque that radio stations at the time refused to play it.

 

Although, this song might fall into tutsi's era.  I can imagine a scenario where the little babe tutsi's mom has all of the neighbor ladies over for the weekly bridge club and an orgy of little girl babies are deposited into tutsi's crib.  Tutsi wipes the spittle off of his chin to preen the single golden lock on his forehead and proceeds to flash the little tots with his big ten inch, forever destroying their pure innocence.  Say it ain't true, tutsi!  LOL

 

 

And then we have Aerosmith's version off their '75 Toys In The Attic LP.

yeah, Sandy Denny had a unique voice; very expressive but plaintive...hadn't realised until relatively recently that she wrote Who knows where the time goes covered by Judy Collins and one of my favorites...

well, my mom was from Bolivia and they don't play bridge over there...and I've got my mom's coloring (very dark) so no golden forelocks fer me...

 

but I must say that I developed an interest in the little girls when I was about 6 - 7 y.o....I was never any good at sports or fighting so the 'snails and puppy dog tails' scenario never interested me...
