#Vinyl night

[top-the-cat]

Picked up a couple of new records in a reclamation yard the other day, whilst picking up bits for my tiki bar.. and to be honest, it was all a bit hit and miss!

Start with two misses:

I'm quite partial to a bit of Carlos Santana occasionally. Some of the more spiritual jazz licks he plays can be quite funky. I mean, this was dog shit though. Whiney, watered down, 80's pop ballad dog shit too. The opening break on the second B-side track starts off OK, with lots of bongos rhythms, and i'm thinking "yeah, this is going somewhere. This is going to be one of those hidden gems that i go digging for" but that also soon descends in to the same plastic bag of dog shit hanging from a tree on a hot summer day.

Well All Right by Santana (Souvenir Limited 12" Edition)

So i know Bob James from tracks like Nautilus and generally getting sampled a lot, so figured i would give this a go. Plus it had a few names on the back that i vaguely recognised as half-known decent session players. But it was that bad, that i have pretty much just blocked it out. I remember it being all a bit soft-pop synth shit, and like the wrong side of bad lounge jazz. Which done well, is right up my alley. But yeah, this is was lounge jazz played in a Travel Lodge outside the the arse end of a grotty housing estate, next to a motorway junction and not close enough to the airport to actually get any passing customers. Yeah, i'm alright ta.

H by Bob James

Now were talking! Lairy as fuck, Tina Turner with the full orchestrated Phil Spector Wall of Sound, and Ike sitting in the background drinking whiskey, sniffing coke, and getting pissed off to fuck!

I remember watching that scene in the Tina Turner movie with Angela Bassett and watching Ike screwing and pacing up and down because he wasn't allowed to get involved. And as much as i respect Ike's sound on the other Ike & Tina records i've got, he was a wife beating prick, so fuck him and he couldn't have made this album. Only Phil Spector, in his prime, could have made this record. (To be fair, i'm sure he turned out to be a piece of shit too, didn't he?)

But yeah, this is all orchestral pomp, big 70's soulful sounds, and Tina's voice blowing hard through it. Its a fucking masterpiece! Love it!
