Mega-Awesome 5th studio disc by this killer blues/rock axeslinger from California featuring 12 songs of excellent, dynamic, world-class, blues-based heavy guitar rock music that lands way-kool & solid to the creative musical core. Dirty Dave Osti is a legit, old-school, guitar hero who speaks the real six string language of all the greats, a true solid man of rock who has created and produced his best, strongest disc to date. Recorded excellently at the Dirtshack Studios, Dirty Dave Osti lands deep and inspired, a seasoned veteran of all things guitar with his own original musical style, vision and vibe. Osti knows what time of day it is when it comes down to the riffage that matters as he cranks up his "Voodoo Guitar" and "Burns Down The Dirtshack" teaching us about the "Shakedown On Salvation Street" as we travel to the dark delta swamplands way beyond the crossroads to find redemption and deliverance preaching rock n' roll with the "Midnight Mojo Man".
This is a reissue of Procol Harum's third and fourth albums released in 1969 and 1970. While there was outside and perhaps internal pressure to equal the success of "A Whiter Shade of Pale," this band was not deterred from creating wonderfully creative music that sometimes matched the grandeur of its 1967 smash but just didn't translate into a "hit."…
Bring together the music scene's hottest sax player and one of soul's sterling vocalists. Then capture these two show-stoppers on one stage. That's Dave Koz and Phil Perry. Live at the Strand. This intimate show captures Phil's voice and Dave's sax altering solo spots and sharing the stage. Full of personal charm and musical thrills, a delightful blend of cool jazz, warm soul and hot R&B.
Somewhat confusingly titled, this CD reissue includes both the 1962 album of the same name and the Dave Van Ronk, Folksinger LP (recorded around the same time), encompassing 25 tracks in all. Anyway, this is certainly Van Ronk's most enduring work, and indeed one of the few relics of the early-'60s traditional folk boom that holds up well today…
