Go on then, as you keep going on about them (Charlie Jefferson said:Can Cladders - The High Llamas
Just how studied and knowing can a pastiche be before it collapses into pointlessness?
Well, I can enjoy about two tracks before I defer to Smile, Smiley Smile and Friends. It's more tolerable than Oasis (LP no.3 onwards)/The Beatles, at least. Like Stereolab, Broadcast, I find the Llamas very seductive in small doses.
Whereas, MMJ I can luxuriate in for many slumbering afternoons and crepuscular evenings despite or maybe because of their obvious debt to Neil Young, The Band, The Allman Brothers, John Prine et al. Perhaps they manage that trick of being greater than the sum of their influences.

Meanwhile, a bit of Santana before the match..

I can't take any credit Jim, I've only ever heard one song.Jim-W said:I was directed to them by Charlie and BBB
And is ONE enough, BBB? Shirley Shome Mishtake!!!BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW said:I can't take any credit Jim, I've only ever heard one song.Jim-W said:I was directed to them by Charlie and BBB
It's my older brother who is The Allman Brothers afficiando but I'm partial too, although I've never come across Dreams. I'm a sucker for a many album vinyl box!!Jim-W said:Time to post my MMJ thoughts as we're on the subject. I was directed to them by Charlie and BBB and I've youtubed and spotified. I think that they do transcend their influences even though you can hear them and it's impossible not to notice them; having said that, they're influenced by top-notch stuff so who care? 'Z' is my favourite so far, although I'm a fan of 'Evil Urges' and some stray songs, the names of which I forget. On 'Z' I really hear Fleet Foxes in the quieter songs, especially in the voices. No bad thing.
I'm making it a priority to track their records down and I'm grateful for the recommendations.
So far today:
The Allman Brothers-Dreams 6lp box
The Allman Brothers-Eat A Peach
Prefab Sprout-Steve McQueen
Country Joe And The Fish-Electric Music For The Mind And Body
In your case Charlie, never.Charlie Jefferson said:And is ONE enough, BBB? Shirley Shome Mishtake!!!BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW said:I can't take any credit Jim, I've only ever heard one song.Jim-W said:I was directed to them by Charlie and BBB

Great videos, BBB. The Julie Driscoll/Brian Auger album, 'Streetnoise' is a great double album although a vinyl copy, I would imagine, would probably cost about £100 these days. 'Open' is a great album too. The epitome of 60's swinging London.BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW said:I started on a few albums today, but couldn't get very far into them before having to take them off.
The guilty are:
The Beatles - Sgt Pepper
The Cult - Electric
Kraftwerk - Radio Activity
Then I pulled out an album I hadn't ever played all the way through (double album), and certainly not for quite a while. What a corker, I'd kind of forgotten what an awesome keyboard player Brian Auger was, surely one of the greatest ever.

I do keep an eye out for those two Jim, but I wouldn't pay anywhere near £100 for a copy, so my search will probably end fruitless.Jim-W said:Great videos, BBB.
