THE JETHRO TULL CHRISTMAS ALBUM

Wots your UK equivalent of Wall-Mart? Sanbury's?
Anyways, this is not your typical Wall-Mart-toss Crimbo lp.

This is a pure joy.

Certes your not talking complex time signature changes alla "Passion Play". This is pop-folk, not prog.
But so damn fine.



Mandolins, piccolos, flutes and , of course the requisite Crimbo glockenspiel.

Most tracks are either re-workings of "Songs From the Wood" tracks or -often wonderfully jazzified - re-workings of Crimbo traditionals..
But there are 4 or 5 new compositions.

Delightful oldtyme Victorian Crimbo feel. Dogs sleeping by the manor hearth-fire loikes. The holly & the ivy.

Its not a Reboks-hawking Santa "sitting on a park bench", but Father Christmas of gentler days.

RUDESS MORGENSTEIN PROJECT - SAME

Karns: get outta that early 70s cubby you have painted yourself into and give this instro keys cd a listen.
Keysman has nailed down the ELP sound. Same running bass and the exact (limited) keys settings that Keefers uses.

Some damn good playing here.

Velvet Underground - Live, Dallas, Texas, End of Cole Avenue 28/10/1969 purple vinyl LP. Good set. A couple of these tracks were on the Live 1969 double LP on Mercury from 1974, but here's the full set from a first genration tape. As audience tapes go, this is positively hi fidelity!

Crystal Syphon - Family Evil LP (Roaratoria). Excellent unknown west coast psych / rock 1967-8. Just a local group from Merced, but they play great and all originals, a definite must for west coast fans.

The Stooges - Have Some Fun CD (Rhino Handmade). Live at Ungano's, New York 1970. This was a press launch gig for Fun House which they play in full. Recorded on a reel to reel set up on a cocktail table in the audience. By Stooges live recording standards, this is pretty good, great riffage throughout.

Jimi Hendrix - Live at the LA Forum 1968 CD + LA Forum 1970 2 x CD. Good sound on the 68 set, 70 is an auience tape (well 2 run in synch to give stereo effect and works pretty well) Superby playing and great to hear again, the polar opposite of the Stooges approach!
