does Roxy Music's "Like A Hurricane" fit here? Kinda?

ya, the 12" of Steve Winwood's Night train from that album has an instrumental and i've seen harvey and rub'n'tug play it
― jaxon, Wednesday, 3 March 2010 20:53 (fourteen years ago) link
would like to hear that instrumental, you mentioned it once before iirc. are there any instrumentals of the joe cocker stuff on island? that would be similarly awesome.
and xp- i think roxy music fits, esp if we're talking about a neil young cover
― psychgawsple, Wednesday, 3 March 2010 21:01 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah, it's the neil young song. sounds like Studio sort of.

my record collection needs more tri atma, reminds me of my favorite kitaro tracks. tho maybe it's more fit for a revive of that 'global village syncretic fusionism' thread (which could use a revive anyway, imo)
btw i think this thread is the reason i got hooked on ilm. cheesy but true.

There's a copy of that Little River Band LP at a market stall near me.... all the encouragement i need.

has there been any john martyn posted in the thread? if not, there should be. i've been buying his later albums and they are always amazing and as they get smoother, get more balearic

^ not necessarily that one. that one's more on the hippy beach part of it. but he uses cheap drum machines and is produced at Compass Point and even worked with lee perry

i just watched that john martyn clip on youtube like 30 mins before jaxon posted. totally weird that he hasn't been mentioned much here

played 80s trivial pursuit this weekend and had the question asker scoff and say "you are SOOOOO never going to get this,,, name a zurich born harpist that was listed in three US billboard charts in 1984."
i got up and threw my Andreas Vollenweider record in his face!
i can't remember the question, but the same thing happened when they asked about the william hurt film gorky park. the soundtrack's epic, assholes!

― dmr, Sunday, 7 March 2010 13:50 (fourteen years ago) link
I love that Ned Doheny song. Hard Candy and Prone are two albums worth tracking down. His self titled album is my favorite, but it's more west coast country rock than Balearic.
― Jacob Sanders, Sunday, 7 March 2010 17:36 (fourteen years ago) link
king of impossible to find, or so i've seen. there are also Tata Vega and Average White Band covers of that song.

There's a mix from dirk of eskimo recordings on lovefingers that's all balearock/funky/folky/classic rock. Great stuff.http://www.lovefingers.org/mp3/dirk.mp3Think there's also another one on beats in space worth searching for.― jaxon, Wednesday, October 29, 2008 12:45 AM (1 year ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink
this is the BIS mix. probably one of my all time faves. so perfectly sequenced and mixed. and with really obvious songs, but it doesn't even matter. so great.

I just found Batteaux self titled on a blog. It fits perfectly what i was needing to hear today. Is this a hard to find record?
― Jacob Sanders, Sunday, 7 March 2010 19:53 (fourteen years ago) link
i got mine for $6 at a record fair. haven't really seen it around otherwise. there's an 8track copy on ebay for $2.50

Someone up thread mentioned Jim Ford, someone I have only heard of in passing. So I sought out his records this weekend and I found one called Harlan County. I don't see how it fits into this thread at all. But it sure is good. Almost sounds like Don Covay or Swamp Dogg mixed with Billy Swan? Anyway really great album.
― Jacob Sanders, Monday, 8 March 2010 23:33 (fourteen years ago) link
yea it doesn't really fit with a beachy vibe, but he sure did love yachting and cocaine!
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Tuesday, 9 March 2010 00:00 (fourteen years ago) link
Are his later recordings different than Harlan County? After listening to this a few times, I keep asking myself is this a subdued Don Covay?
― Jacob Sanders, Tuesday, 9 March 2010 00:08 (fourteen years ago) link
i haven't heard everything, but the comps i have seem to indicate that he didn't really switch his style up too incredibly much. does jim ford not have his own thread?

I'm a lazy Sid, so I only gave a quick glance to see if these were mentioned.

Is there still any interest in this genre?
Might this be the ultimate BBBH jam?

Stay for the whole thing, the vocal/guitar effects are worth it.
Also way into live versions of John Martyn doing "Outside In,' which Lovefingers used in the "1984" track last year. I want to hear more if people have picks.

kinda over nu-balearic (never really got under it tbh), edits and dance music in general, but BBBH is one of those things i just won't tire of.
