mike wilson Posted November 15, 2007 Posted November 15, 2007 James Dewar(RIP) Now there's a name. In the early/mid70's I bought an album called "Flash Fearless vs the Zorg Women" (nowt on Youtube, sadly) a group effort co-ordinated by John Entwhistle and featuring Elkie Brooks, Alice Cooper, Jim Dandy and others. A parody Flash Gordon concept album, it featured a ballad sung by James Dewar. I couldn't find any reference to him anywhere. Took quite a while before I realised I was looking for the guy out of Stone the Crows. Sadly gone before by the time I did find him. http://www.scifi.com/sfw/sound/sfw9367.html
gstallons Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Absolutely! My '69 (recorded) album was the Stones' Get Yer Ya Yas Out still one of their best. See here for a top 10 best live rock recordings list, just for interest's sake. No1 = Allmans at Fillmore East Yep, a treasured gatefold I looked through this thread all this time to find this Allman Bros lp . Probably the most perfect noise of all time! Also...The Who-Live at Leeds...(extended version) if it's too loud you're too old. And J Geils Band-Full House / Lou Reed-Rock - Roll Animal....You would have to hear them 48 straight hours to fully appreciate.

gstallons Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Maybe you were a Grand Funk Railroad fan? Grand Funk--Live Album....absolutely..Lots of feedback along with Mach 2 rock and roll. I have 2 of these cds along with the original vinyl.I bought the "Tribute to Bosnia" cd (a live album). Some things are better left to memory.....Mark,Don and Mel can't duplicate that speed at AARP age. "I'm Your Captain/Closer to Home" is the ONLY song that was released to airplay I would claim to be GFR.
belfastguzzi Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Some things are better left to memory..... Same with Mountain. Without Felix =
gstallons Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Same with Mountain.Without Felix = Nantucket Sleighride is the only 8-track i had of them.
mike wilson Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Same with Mountain.Without Felix = I thought his main claim to fame was buggering up Cream's recordings.
