A couple of years back, UK-based House and Soul DJ Jerry Frempong’s wife Kate was doing a Spring -clean at the family home. At the bottom of the garden, in among a pile of rusty garden tools and so on, she discovered a couple of mysterious bin-bags. She was about to assign them to the skip with everything else, but a sixth sense persuaded her to check the contents. It was a huge pile of rare soul, funk, disco, boogie and- yes – Ghana Highlife records. Kate brought this to the attention of Jerry, who immediately understood the significance of the treasure trove.

VA - Paint Your Wagon (Music From The Soundtrack) (1969/1994) Music

VA - Paint Your Wagon (Music From The Soundtrack) (1969/1994)
EAC Rip | FLAC (tracks, cue, log) - 291 MB | MP3 CBR 320 kbps - 106 MB
46:39 | Soundtrack, Country Rock, Bluegrass, Musical | Label: MCA Records

The movie Paint Your Wagon was an awkward attempt to update the plot of an old stage musical by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, with new songs by Andre Previn and Lerner. One can guess at one inherent problem with the picture from the very notion of starring Lee Marvin and Clint Eastwood in a musical. The soundtrack is a peculiar release; in purely musical terms, it would only be of interest to dedicated fans of Harve Presnell (who performs "They Call the Wind Maria") and Anita Gordon, who acquits herself well singing Jean Seberg's part on "A Million Miles Away Behind the Door." It is Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin, however, who do more of the singing here, and while they might not be of much interest musically, there is a certain "Golden Throats"-type allure to their songs.

Contemporary Blues | Country: UK | Label: Rob Koral

‘The Blues And I Should Have A Party’ is as much a thematic statement of the band’s musical intent – let alone history – as it is a specific title track about a troubled relationship. Thus: “The blues & I’ve been friends for so long, We might as well start a party.”

Thunder - Their Finest Hour (and a bit) (1995) [EMI TOCP-8694/7243 8 35650] Music

Posted by v3122 at Dec. 8, 2010

This 1995 compilation from UK rockers Thunder serves as an effective introduction to the band's brand of classy rockers and ballads. Featuring tracks from the first three albums plus two new cover songs (Python Lee Jackson's "In A Broken Dream" and the Rolling Stones' "Gimme Shelter"), as well as a rearranged version of "Higher Ground" and the previously unreleased slowie "Once In A Lifetime", those looking for a taster of what the band is all about need look no further. The songs are all several years old now but stand up (pun intended) very well to repeated listening…
