Here Comes The Warm Jets

                                                               

 Brian Eno's prominence in the music world may owe as much to his oddball persona as it does to his talent as a musician... he's often described himself as a non-musician..., and I've never been a fan of his ambient phase, but he can play some damn good Rock 'N' Roll when he feels like it.  

'Here Comes The Warm Jets' is his debut solo album.  It was released in 1974.









The full album can be found here or here.

Breakin' It Up, Breakin' It Down

 


Breakin' it up and breakin' it down as only Muddy Waters, Johnny Winters and James Cotton can do, with plenty of help from Pinetop Perkins on piano, Willie 'Big Eyes' Smith on drums and Charles Calmese on bass.  

Released in 2007, the songs on this album were recorded during a concert tour in 1977.  

Sure wish I could have seen one of those shows.  







You should be able to find the full album here or here.

Ptooff!!



If bands such as Pink Floyd and The Beatles were the standard-bearers of Britain's Sixties Psychedelia then The Deviants were its dark underbelly.  

Consisting of Mick Farren and whoever else happened to be filling in at the time, 'Ptooff!' was their debut album.
