Juke Jules SUBS 17th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - No More Heartaches / What Am I To Do? (2017) | Nice work, Andy. I hope that all the artists here can soon be linked back to 45cat
|
Juke Jules SUBS 3rd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumTina Turner - Simply The Best (1991) | There are some major names among the credits for production and session musicians
I am left wondering at the "Carter" who produced "Private Dancer", shown also on vinyl LP and single issues: the linked USA release shows John Carter though this is not backed up by any booklet scans
|
Juke Jules SUBS 3rd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumTina Turner - Simply The Best (1991) | Hearing the Album Version of "Private Dancer" on the radio just now I wondered who was playing the sophisticated jazzy guitar solo, in the style of say, Terje Rypdal or John Schofield: thanks to the booklet scans I see to my surprise that it was good ol' Jeff Beck

Juke Jules SUBS 9th Jul 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Pursuit Of Happiness - The Downward Road (1993) | The "Intro" is a short clip from Staple Singers' Downward Road
"Love Theme" is a power-instrumental that will delight Todd Rundgren fans, but you might be hard-pressed to decide which is the "1st guitar solo"

|
Juke Jules SUBS 9th Jul 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Pursuit Of Happiness - The Downward Road (1993) | This was issued with various colours of the front image (folded sheets)
Wonderful contrast between the heavy metal drums and guitar delivery, and the sweet backing vocals of Rachel Oldfield on "Cigarette Dangles"
"I wanna ride the big wave
"Open up the bomb bay"
I am indebted to Mike Judge for introducing me to this track

Juke Jules SUBS 20th May 2017 | | CD AlbumHelen Merrill - Jazz 'Round Midnight (1990) | Another treat from this compilation on YT - Merrill singing Yesterdays (happy sweet sequestered days) this time with the Quincy Jones Orchestra, Jimmy Jones piano, Barry Galbraith guitar, Oscar Pettiford bass, Bobby Donaldson drums, and Clifford Brown for the magnificent trumpet break
Gil Evans and his Orchestra are not on this track, but are on some of the other tracks

Juke Jules SUBS 7th Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumSeasick Steve - Walkin' Man, The Best Of Seasick Steve (2011) | Great sampler of Seasick Steve's work. He makes me think of JD McPherson combined with Son of Dave
"Cheap" is fairly typical

|
Juke Jules SUBS 5th Mar 2017 | | CD AlbumRichard Shindell - Somewhere Near Paterson (2000) | You stay here. I'll go look for wood - bread - guns
Why, what has happened? A beautiful and disturbing song, in the Folk tradition
"I'll go look for God, I know where he isn't"
Apparently Richard Shindell wrote You Stay Here about the siege of Sarajevo in 1992.

|
Juke Jules SUBS 23rd Jan 2017 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - The Sequel Records Progressive Rock Sampler (1992) | Includes the first Sequel CD catalogue. I think the "Magpie Exclusive" mention is because it was sold through the Magpie catalogue/magazine rather than given away free
All tracks taken from Sequel CD compilations.
