Dylan Track: A slightly different take on the tribute album:
'Gotta Serve Somebody - The Gospel Songs Of Bob Dylan'
reflecting on the songs Dylan wrote for 1979’s 'Slow Train Coming' and 1980’s' Saved',
the tracklisting is as follows: "Gotta Serve Somebody" by Shirley Caesar, "When You Gonna Wake Up" by Lee Williams & the Spiritual QC’s, "I Believe in You" by Dottie Peoples, "Are You Ready?" by the Fairfield Four, "Solid Rock" by the Sounds of Blackness, "Saving Grace" by Aaron Neville, "What Can I Do for You?" by Helen Baylor, "In the Garden" by the Broadway Inspirational Voices, "Pressing On" by the Chicago Mass Choir, "Saved" by the Mighty Clouds of Joy, "When He Returns" by Rance Allen, and
"Gonna Change My Way of Thinking" which Dylan himself re-recorded with Mavis Staples, just for this release.
£12.99.
The
first of those Revola
reissue has just arrived, Robert
Mitchum - 'Calypso Is Like So…'
"The celebrated (some would say infamous) Calypso album by the King Of Cool himself, Robert
Mitchum... after hanging out with such Calypsonians as Mighty Sparrow and Lord Invader while on location in Trinidad, Mitchum sold the idea of this album to Capitol
Records, Mitchum opted for an "Ethnic" sound, with no attempt to adapt either the music or his friends' lyrics for an American audience....giving us the spectacle of songs written specifically for a local audience delivered uncut by a major Hollywood star!
As a bonus we add both sides of a single, the 'Duane Eddy In Dub' sound of "Thunder Road" (from the film of the same name) and it's flip, the Eddie Cochran-esque "My Honey's Lovin Arms".....which prove that had he wanted to, Mitchum could have given Elvis a run for his money This is a key entry in the collectable 'Exotica' genre with bonus tracks from an impossibly rare Capitol single
£8.99 //.

White 'Tuff and Stringy' Sessions 1966-68.
"includes all the solo sides Clarence cut for
the Bakersfield International label. Much of the rest of the material is derived from sessions that White, Gene Parsons, Gib Guilbeau and Wayne
Moore worked on, accompanying local country and pop acts, and tunes that were only ever released on obscure, hard to find independent 45s. For all of these folk and country rock gems,
this is their first appearance on CD" more

"When the Midas touch Hall Of Fame producer / songwriting team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller launched their own record labels—Daisy and Tiger—in 1963, the quality of the ensuing singles was a given.

The
Wizards From Kansas "These guys sorta
combined mid-period Airplane and Quicksilver inflections, with a healthy dose and understanding of country music" (From borderlinebooks.com:)
"This was an obscure country-influenced band whose sole album contained fine versions of classic period songs High Flying Bird and Buffy St. Marie's Codlne, as well as some excellent original compositions notably Misty Mountainside, Country Dawn and She Rides With Witches. The band exhibited a fine range of harmonies, and were indeed from Kansas! The album is recommended and is a significant minor collectable"
