There's also Bareback at Big Sky by Poco. Does "bareback" mean anything else besides what i already know?

tbf that's got a horse on it, unlike the one before.
― Whiney Houston (Tom D.), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:25 (six years ago) link
i had no idea that was a horseback riding term. I'm such a city boy.
― Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:28 (six years ago) link
actually i didn't even notice that was a horse; i thought it was somebody spreadeagled on the floor
― Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:30 (six years ago) link
It was Poco's logo so it might still have nothing to do with horseriding. But Richie Furay was born again so I can't see him participating in anything untoward.
― Whiney Houston (Tom D.), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:40 (six years ago) link
Richie was out of the band by the time they adopted the horse logo though (although occasionally rejoining)
― Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:46 (six years ago) link
the horse logo was designed by Phil Hartman incidentally - his brother was Poco's manager

I just noticed that the syrup on that Head East cover looks kind of like Texas (panhandle toward the viewer). I wonder if that was intentional.

Oh man, I used to own that Richard Torrance album! "Rio de Janeiro Blue" is a smooth slice of yacht rock.

From 1978, the amusing named Trumpetmachine with the painfully titled, "For Flying Out Proud".

― Video reach stereo bog (Tom D.), Sunday, 28 January 2018 23:02 (six years ago) link
Huh, had not heard of Trumpetmachine before. Woody Shaw, Kenny Wheeler and Jon Faddis. Sounds like it might have been a less successful coattail rider of the Supersax concept?
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Monday, 29 January 2018 02:53 (six years ago) link
No doubt. I find Faddis tedious for various reasons I won't elaborate on right this second.
I have seen the son of Mike Zwerin, who was on Birth of The Cool, I think, play bass a few times. Seems like a pretty nice guy. He is unusual in a jazz context in that, not only does he play electric bass, but he plays it slung real low, a la Paul Simonon or Kris(t) Novoselic, say.

That's actually the early '80s but it belongs in 1978.
