If I Hadn't Made A Left Hand Turn

Apparently Warner Brothers have no intention of releasing either of these albums on CD so I don't feel bad about posting them here. They're not her best albums, in my opinion, so if you like Dory Previn I suggest you hop over to Amazon and buy Mythical Kings and On My Way To Where (if you haven't got them already), for a start.

But these will do to give you a taste of what she's like, and will (I hope) satisfy the members of the Yahoo DP group who haven't heard them.

With His Brains On The Table You Could Say He Was Out Of His Head

An album that has - unfairly - disappeared without trace. Barely a half dozen references to it found via Google.

Sue Jones-Davies is probably best known for Rock Follies and 'Life Of Brian', but before either of those she was fronting The Bowles Brothers - a nice little band that I saw in quite a few smallish venues around North London in the late 70s. They were hugely unfashionable in those punk- and post-punk days but for the discerning few who still held a candle for 'real' music they were a refreshing antidote to the noise.

Obviously derivative of Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks but none the worse for that - Dan Hicks was obviously derivative of Bob Wills.

Been away, now I'm back

Hiya

Sorry - I've been on holiday for a few weeks in Italy & so haven't uploaded anything for a while or responded to any comments. Sorry? Who am I kidding - I've been in Italy fer chrissakes!

Today's upload is the only album by Eg and Alice - thanks to my old mate Emil Thompson for the vinyl rip.

Coming soon to this blog (maybe - depends if I can find the vinyl): Dealing With The Dead by Plan 9, a band that features no fewer than five guitarists including the wonderfully named Eric Stumpo, Degenerates & Enflame by The Passage, Sunset Glow by Julie Tippets, a couple of unavailable Dory Previn albums, a couple of early Ian Matthews for the person who name checked him in the Robin Dransfield comments, maybe some Microdisney and Stackridge, and so on. I'm facing redundancy soon so there may be even more time for ripping and uploading!

Thanks for all the nice comments, it does my little heart good to know people are actually downloading these albums. - Sorry, anonymous, no marc brierly or meic stevens records. - Reimer, the RTV album is exactly as it is on the vinyl. I don't know a song called "He's the star of the blue-movies" but I do have Neil Innes' first 4 albums on vinyl so maybe some of them will come too. - Kevin & Karel, the 3rd Home album is the only one I still have on vinyl apart from The Alchemist, which I don't like particularly and is up in my loft where it's likely to stay, sorry.
