1970年のミュージック・ライフ 5冊しかないけれど、1970年になってもScott Walkerが表紙を飾っているのに驚き。 #musiclife #shinkomusic #mickjagger #alkooper #donovan #scottwalker #ccr #creedenceclearwaterrevival #ミュージックライフ #1970年のミュージックライフ #新興楽譜出版社 https://www.instagram.com/p/CX9w1DrMVhu/?utm_medium=tumblr
Album Number One Hundred Six “Blood, Sweat & Tears” is the, self-titled, second album by this band and was released on December 11, 1968. It was commercially successful, rising to the top of the U.S. charts for a collective seven weeks and yielding three successive Top 5 singles. It received a Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1970 and has been certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA with sales of more than four million units in the U.S. In Canada, it enjoyed four runs and altogether eight weeks at No. 1 on the RPM national album chart. My copy is a gatefold on #columbiarecords - PC 9720. Bandleader #alkooper and two other members, #randybrecker and #jerryweiss had left #bloodsweatandtears after their first album. #bobbycolomby and #stevekatz searched for a replacement singer and selected #davidclaytonthomas . Three more musicians joined to bring the band to nine members. Columbia assigned James William Guercio (who was simultaneously working with new band Chicago) to produce a new album. #rockandroll #thesixties https://www.instagram.com/p/CSb1CkVrCBx/?utm_medium=tumblr
Album Number One Hundred Five “Super Session” is an album by #alkooper with guitarists #mikebloomfield on the first half and #stephenstills on the second half of the album. Released by #columbiarecords in 1968, it peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard 200 during a 37-week chart stay and was certified gold by RIAA. My copy is on Columbia Records - PC 9701. (I had this album before the previous one. Their cover of Donovan’s #seasonofthewitch is exceptional) #alkooperandmikebloomfield previously worked together on the sessions for the ground-breaking classic #highway61revisited by #bobdylan , as well as playing in support of his controversial appearance at the #newportfolkfestival in July 1965. Kooper had recently left #bloodsweatandtears after recording their debut album with them, and was now working as an A&R man for Columbia. Bloomfield was about to leave Electric Flag, and at relative loose ends. Kooper telephoned Bloomfield to see if he was free to come down to the studio and jam; Bloomfield agreed, leaving Kooper to handle the arrangements. #rockandroll #bluesrock #thesixties https://www.instagram.com/p/CSZew0ILrrQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
Album Number One Hundred Four “The Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper” is a double album recorded at the Fillmore West venue; the album is a successor to the studio album Super Session, which included #stephenstills in addition to #mikebloomfield and #alkooper , and had achieved commercial and critical success earlier in 1968. My copy is a gatefold on #columbiarecords - KGP 6 (also shows CS 9765) The performances, recordings and production cannot be described as flawless; in his sleeve notes, Kooper describes the difficulties of finding rehearsal space, Bloomfield's insomnia, and the failure of a vocal microphone during "Dear Mr Fantasy"; the track "I Wonder Who" is faded during a Bloomfield solo for no apparent reason. #rockandroll #bluesrock #thesixties https://www.instagram.com/p/CSW1x_UL77z/?utm_medium=tumblr
