Vinyl Friday

Thank you for the nudge here 'K'. A really original solo guitarist/singer/composer and electronic effects fiddler, John Martyn was plagued by the Devil Drink throughout his complicated life, but thankfully he left recordings of his unusual genius. I have several old vinyl pressings of his work that I had more or less forgotten about till this reminder....

I believe his unusual take on guitar electronic amplification and effects was more or less his own work. 'Way back when' I went to one of his concerts in London somewhere and was totally enthralled by his original sound. Thanks again Mr.'K' for the memory nudge!




ATB ..... and shoot safely
 
Sorry but I feel like a dinosaur. My era was Glenn Miller, Buddy Rich...Skin deep. Getting up to date how about Connie Francis.
 
I can't quite work out why! But why am I thinking that the girls might have been BASC members? Surely some mistake?



The sounds of my youth. I'd have been sixteen then. Fayette Pinkney, on the right, really fine. She died at only sixty-one.
