    Rare Earth - Get Ready (LP)

    51DEZT5x0YL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

    Five white guys recording for the Motown Studio in Detroit. They were actually given their own label within Motown...Rare Earth.

    The gem of this LP is side 2...a 21:30 version of "Get Ready" which is the only track on the side. There is some controversy whether this is a studio recording with some canned audience noise added...or whether it is a live recording. For some reason there is no definitive answer...although I found this info:
    On July 4 at 1 a.m., Rare Earth began recording, and when they were through, they had stretched the song to twenty-one and a half minutes. It took up the entire second side of that first album, issued in the fall of 1969.

    which leads me to believe it is a studio recording...and listening seems to bear that out.

    Smoky Robinson wrote "Get Ready". On Side 1 the cover of "Tobacco Road" and cover of Dave Mason's "Feelin' Alright" shine.

    Warren Zevon - Warren Zevon (LP)

    41BYNKGT6QL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

    His debut album. As much as I like "Excitable Boy" (a lot)...I think this one is better.

    I miss Warren's music.

    The-Essential-Lynyrd-Skynyrd-2-CD-SET-B00000ADJX-L.jpg

    This is really good!

    I'm gonna have to confess that I've never owned my own copy of any of L.S.s discography - I know all the 'classics' from FM radio but just recently wanted my own to play.

    I picked this up after surfing around - glad I did - this has some good sonics for a 'best of' - really.

    Ya know - sometimes the soul just has to have some good ol' boy Southern Rock!! :smile:

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.
