Tippaporn is back from the deep. Prepare for incoming.

 

Most people will recognize this number from Quentin Tarantino's 1994 Pulp Fiction.  Dick Dale and The Deltone's 1963 hit Misirlou.  Dick Dale pioneered the surf music style and was considered the King Of the Surf Guitar.  He also worked with Leo Fender to produce the first 100-watt guitar amplifier.

Hey bannork, a few weeks turned into 3 months.  Ah, well!!  Who knows where the time goes???

 

Fairport Convention's classic with Sandy on vocals

 

.

BTW, nice selection of early Dave Edmunds (as usual).

Tit for tat?

 

 

Old time blues from Scrapper Blackwell recorded in '28.  Originally written by Jimmy Cox in 1923 and redone many years later by Eric Clapton on his 1992 Unplugged CD.

 

 

Also famously covered by Duane & Gregg Allman in '68.

 

 

Rory Gallagher from 1973.

 

 

Sister Morphine performed by Marianne Faithfull in 1969.

 

 

And a great version by the Stones.

 

 

Great driving music. I'd better be careful, I don't want to appear on one of those TV clips featuring reckless drivers.

Great driving music indeed.  Are you the pedal-to-the-metal type driver, bannork?  The way I drive I'm amazed to still be alive.  Forget roller coasters . . . just come drive with me if you're into thrills, LOL.

Great 1976 live version of one of my favourite Dylan tunes.

 

 

I love Blood on the Tracks.

Ditto.  A few more Dylan favourites.

 

From 1976.

 

 

From 1964.

 

 

You might remember these guys, bannork?

 

 

 

 

Or the Aussie band, Chain, formed in 1968?  Getting very obscure here.

 

 

Another Aussie blues band from the very early 70's.

 

 

Some Chicago blues by Luther Allison in 1972.  One of the familiar acts to be seen in the blues bars during those days.

 

 

The incomparable Peter Green after almost 8 years of obscurity after departing Fleetwood Mac in 1970.  This one off his solo 1979 LP, In The Skies.

Red hot guitarist there TP.  Thanks for these fine boogie tracks you've posted here.

I had a haircut yesterday. What an error! Long hair is essential for boogie dancing.

Rock till you drop

I may have been working hard during the past 3 months but I was at the same time searching for gems on YT which I could post once I had cleared my mountain of work.  Those two tracks from Chain and Carson came at the expensive of sifting through a lot of mediocre Aussie bands from that era.  In the end it was worth the effort.

 

Rory was a most exceptional artist.  Hard to find any of his work that is subpar.  Phenomenal guitarist.

 

My hair is still draping my shoulders . . . if only in old photographs, LOL.

 

Here's another faded hard blues band from 1977, this one from Germany.  Disappeared from the scene after only a single album.  Certainly made some very listenable music.

Well, now, I'm going to have to return the thanks, bannork.  Very nice number.  May as well play the First Edition version that was played to death on AM radio at the time.

 

 

I remember Bakerloo TP, especially the dramatic album cover.  I remember them primarily from the Harvest sampler- Picnic- A breath of Fresh Air which included this gem from Kevin Ayers

 

 

Happy New Year, all.  Looking forward to new musical delights in 2561.  On my way out for holiday!!!  Yipee!!

 

The Harvest samplers were a great introduction to new artists and also some lesser known works from established artists.

My brother had this one:



Here’s a track I remember.

Roy Harper - Living here alone .

 

I often wake up in the morning with a Kevin Ayers' song running around my head. What a nice way to start the day.
