TheVinylPress.com


As some of you know, I have been pursuing vinyl and audio for a long time, and recently decided to write about it. I launched a site called http://TheVinylPress.com which is devoted to older records that deserve renewed attention. The site launched quietly last month with a feature about the U.S.Library of Congress audio-visual restoration archive, and the latest installment features an inteview with Olav Wyper, the creator of the legendary Vertigo Swirl label. For now, this is a labor of love. I hope you find something worthwhile.*

BDP- hang in there with me, I've got a great piece which should publish next
week. I learned a lot by working on it.
From what I am told, the band was amazing live, and is still out there in an
obviously re-booted form. More soon, not trying to be coy, just don't want to
preempt my labors- this piece, really a set of pieces, was a bit of work!
Yeah, the original movie omitted some good stuff and it's been a long time
since I watched the home video, revamped version. Love the cigarette
scene, don't you? It captures a whole different vibe.
Did I misread or misunderstand--the Band is out there in a re-boot? All the singers have passed away...??? It's hard to imagine anyone replacing those three voices.
Oh, my bad, sorry--who's left from Canned Heat? I know Blind Owl checked out ages ago and he was my favorite, far and away.
