For our Mystery Date this weekend I ask first, Are these gentlemen beardy enough to spend a Sunday afteroon contemplating snowflakes out of Mod’s picture window while stroking their beards? I certainly hope so.
These guys put out an album about 2 years ago that I play all the time, up to and including this very instant. Hopefully it’s something new you can get your head around and enjoy.
Okay, much as Mick Taylor’s leaving The Stones really never led to anything great, it did lead to several things that aren’t bad. This collaboration isn’t one of them. John Phillips ended up releasing the session as Pay, Pack and Follow, probably as a result of this bootleg getting out. The sound quality here was more than good enough for me so I never bothered to get the official release. I remember at the time getting up on my fanboy soapbox and loudly proclaiming, “The Rolling Stones are nobody’s backing band!”
Anyway, here are four tracks. I can get you the other two, including the icky “Zulu Warrior” if you really want. Just let me know and we can work it out. But I really think this is enough to burden the Hall members with. Do they all seem much longer than they really are to you? They do to me.
Enjoy!
Happy birthday ya lousy quitter. Ahh I don’t mean it like that. I know you really needed to leave so you could gig with greats like The Dead Elvi.
Anyway, happy birthday.
Hell with that old guy.
