FYI, the CD is on Disque Blue and features around twenty four tracks by Muddy & Son. There is also a companion disc called "Muddy Waters - Aristocrat of the Blues" which features his first recordings for the Chess brothers (Aristocrat label) in 1946-7. The thing that strikes me about both jackets is how damn regal Muddy looked as a young man. He sure was a handsome fella!

I'm going to get into some mainstream stuff here so maybe I'll get chastised by the hard-core garage fans; "The Who Sells Out" is a prime example of viewing a record from two different perspectives. Dunno how many of you like early Hendrix, but the monos of "Are You Experienced" and "Axis..." are a lot of fun..." i agree. another good one is the first floyd album (piper @ the gates). the mono vs stereo versions are quite different. for example, on most tracks on the mono, suddenly there's a whole different instrumentation! " It seems that Europe went about a year longer with the mono format than the states did. " we did indeed. i'd say until 1969. in fact in the first part of the 60s, when stereo was not widespread at all in the uk, there were often no stereo mixes of albums, or if there were, they were just done as an afterthought. my band the dilemmas are pondering reviving this idea and doing a different mono and a stereo mix of forthcoming records, and issuing both. if studio budget allows of course! groovily phil dilemma ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2000 09:54:51 EST From: AlisaLove2@aol.com Subject: Re: Sin City Disciples Thanks!! ------------------------------ Date: 27 Jan 2000 06:51:57 -0800 From: Mark Robinson <999@techemail.com> Subject: Falling Archies Have any of you Boston based Bomp-l'rs heard of the Falling Archies.

Bauhaus I consider a great glam band. They got tagged goth.

Just my thoughts. . . Anyway, I went from new wave/mod to goth/mod/punk to hardcore/punk to psychobilly/punk to surf/rockabilly/garage to wherever I am today (unclassifiable?), so there's hope for your bandmates!!!

Muddy's stuff is essential. It's strictly delta, little "young sounding" but he's style is cooking already. Better than the tunes he cut for Okeh between these recordings and Aristocrat. Son House is heavier stuff. Muddy sounds younger and little light weight compared to him. Son House 1940-42 is the kind of delta blues that scares you shitless and captivates you at the same time.

Instead, stick it in the right pocket of the pouch, and GENTLY fold the sides of the "J" card down, with the CD on top of it.

Also, the vinyl sleeves do NOT protect the CDs as much as jewel boxes (though they're BETTER when it comes to spills of soda or booze). You CAN fold the jackets and J cards if you don't exercise a tiny measure of care. OK, maybe this ain't for everyone -- but it might be for you. Bags Unlimited will send you free samples and a free catalog. And, if you're really lucky, mebbe the guys down at the local used record store will let you trade in all your old jewel boxes for a copy of that 7-disc Funhouse sessions box set.

I guess I went from Beatles/Rolling Stones to Classical to Dr. Demento type stuff to Velvets/Love/Stooges to early blues to early blues/country/jazz to 20s/30s pop/dance bands to surf/garage/punk, etc. (While during this whole time grooving to lotsa different stuff). As far as getting goths to do some groovy stuff, play for them the "Sin Alley" that has lotsa monster and graveyard songs on it. Find as much graveyard stuff as possible! Signed D.C. (speaking of which, that song has a graveyard reference in it!) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2000 13:42:42 EST From: ARei425705@aol.com Subject: RUB MY ROOT RE: MUDDY WATERS I have the Pink Finks version of "Rub My Root", which claims Muddy as the writer. I've never been able to track down HIS version tho'.....anyone know what record it's on and how I can snatch up a copy? Same goes for "Look What You've Done" (I believe the Stones do it on "December's Children") Thanks!

In case any Muddy Fans don't already know, there's a superb LP called JOHN LEE HOOKER at the Cafe a Go Go, which features Muddy and his entire band as backup musicians....very cool to hear Muddy's slide playing behind Hooker's bizarre picking style!

Especially if you're listening while chemically induced! I love hearing instruments come form one side of the room and then others come from somewhere beyond! Dunno if anyone out there indulges in Lysergic substances anymore, but if so, I'd be very curious to hear what you think are the best records to hear while stoned (and Pot does count)! My top 5: 1. S.F. SORROW/PARACHUTE-PRETTY THINGS (tie) 2. PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN- PINK FLOYD 3. ONE NATION UNDERGROUND/BALAKLAVE-PEARLS BEFORE SWINE (tie) 4. BRAINDROPS-FUZZTONES 5. SEDUCTION - LINK PROTRUDI & THE JAYMEN Runner up: MORAY EELS EAT THE HOLY MODAL ROUNDERS WORD TO THE WISE: When listening under the influence, CDs are the way to go....unless you've got absolutely pristine vinyl, the crackling will drive you INSANE!!!!!

My asumption is that a great majority of the people don't. I just wanted to make a point in one of my articles, but I thought that I'd take a poll first. If you don't feel comfortable posting it on this list, please email me off-list. Thanks. As for me, I have used and listened, but not in a while (more than a year). Here are some of my favorites. 1. Gandalf-S/T -those chimes used to make my ears go wacky. 2. Tea Company-S/T -there's a song with something splashing around in water, and when I first bought the album and heard it (while under the influence), I thought my roomates fish was having a seizure in the fish tank! 3. Pink Floyd-Piper & fiirst couple songs on "saucerful" 4. Christopher-S/T -Not the "Watcha Gonna Do?" group 5. Group 1850-Agemos Trip to mother earth Some other songs that I like are the Skip Spence song "War in Peace", and the first song on side A of the Pink Floyd's soundtrack to the film "More" casuse I dig those birds chirping like it's sunrise or somethin'. See ya, I look forward to hearin' from ya. - -Jason Mata - --- ARei425705@aol.com wrote: > > I prefer mono for 50's Rock N Roll and Garage, since > it's basically 3 chords > on full throttle....seems more powerful and hard > hitting when all the music > comes out of both speakers instead of being cut in > two...yet I definitely > think stereo is the way to go for psych!
