Juke Jules SUBS 3rd May 2014		Vinyl Album Jeanne Hayes, Mike Russo, The Dellwoods - Fink Along With Mad (1963)	See also The Dellwoods on 45cat
Juke Jules SUBS 15th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album The Idle Race - The Birthday Party (1989)	I think we're into that territory, much discussed on 45cat, where records for release in the UK are pressed at various plants in Europe
Juke Jules SUBS 8th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Martin Carthy - Out Of The Cut (1982)	The Song of the Lower Classes, a poem by Ernest Charles Jones (1819–1869), to the hymn tune Northfield by Jeremiah Ingalls, New Hampshire 1805 [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 31st Mar 2014		Vinyl Album Lonnie Mack - Whatever's Right (1969)	[YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 24th Mar 2014		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Private Pleasures (1978)	Thanks HM, edited to just plain Robert Johnson
Juke Jules SUBS 20th Mar 2014		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Private Pleasures (1978)	Should the artists Robert Johnson and Robert Johnson [Memphis] perhaps be transposed? Although we have no Side 2 image here, this RJ sounds to be British rather than Tennesseean, and maybe the same RJ as in Shusha • Maddy Prior • Melanie Harrold • John Kirkpatrick • Robert Johnson • Sydney Carter
Juke Jules SUBS 11th Mar 2014		Vinyl Album Serge Gainsbourg - Histoire De Melody Nelson (2009)	Yes, magnificent [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 5th Mar 2014		Vinyl Album Scott Walker - Scott (1967)	[YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 9th Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Steeleye Span - Below The Salt (1972)	[YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 3rd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album The Nice - The Thoughts Of Emerlist Davjack (1968)	The sleeve front is 'glossed' with a matt-finish over the band photo and the text-logo
Juke Jules SUBS 3rd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Roy Harper - Flat Baroque And Berserk (1970)	In his sleeve notes Harper says "(I played) electric guitar on Hells Angels (and) was accompanied by three very dear friends whose names I cannot give because they belong to another label" They were Keith Emerson, Brian Davison and Lee Jackson who at the time were three-piece The Nice
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Talk Talk - It's My Life (1984)	Such A Shame had little airplay in the UK so thanks for the video. The book The Dice Man inspired the song but the band imbue it with such a sense of tragedy that you can hardly expect them to perform it in a video without parody. I wonder how they performed their material at live venues. btw, The Somers Arms which briefly appears seems to have been in Battersea, now demolished for the redevelopment of Rochelle Close
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Blossom Toes - If Only For A Moment (1969)	Vocal credits on the sleeve for the standout track go to 'Big' Brian Belshaw alone [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Martin Carthy - Out Of The Cut (1982)	The Devil And The Feathery Wife The video I first posted has now gone, but Martin talks and plays it on another YT video
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Brass Monkey [Folk] - See How It Runs (1986)	Very 'ECM' feel to the front image on this Topic release
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Alistair Anderson - Concertina Workshop (1974)	An early appearance of the Free Reed label, subsumed under Topic
Juke Jules SUBS 2nd Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Bryn Haworth - Let The Days Go By (1974)	Bryn plays Let The Days Go By, solo with his Harpolek on the OGWT [YouTube Video] He recorded this album at the time when he had returned from the USA having converted to Christianity. In this video for UCB TV he recounts his career up to this time. [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 1st Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Bryn Haworth - Let The Days Go By (1974)	[YouTube Video] Bryn's song for Sally [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 1st Feb 2014		Vinyl Album Martin Carthy - Martin Carthy With Dave Swarbrick (1977)	The cover illustration shows the cover of the original release but with the Fontana logo airbrushed out Carthy had established his distinctive style by the time of this 1965 release; Ian Campbell describes the style in his sleevenotes: "His interest in the art of accompaniment is known and respected throughout the world of folk music... In the songs he sings the words are given prime importance, his phrasing controlled in the only sensible way, by the meaning of the words and never by the rhythm of the guitar" Note the inclusion of Carthy's adaptation of Scarborough Fair, which was picked up by Paul Simon to become an international hit for Simon and Garfunkel [YouTube Video] [YouTube Video] The collection includes jolly Folk yarns, ballads and tragic tales, but if you want the truly poignant hear The Wind That Shakes The Barley [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 28th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Michael Omartian - White Horse	Omartian and his wife Stormie are pursuing a Christian message here, but it is completely subsumed in the music and never 'in your face' [YouTube Video] I love the sensuality of the synthesiser bass on Take Me Down [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 25th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Julie Driscoll - Brian Auger (1968)	- and would of bought you at least six pints :-)
Juke Jules SUBS 22nd Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Gladys Knight And The Pips - Silk 'N Soul (1969)	That's a pity; I would love to know who played on The Look Of Love
Juke Jules SUBS 22nd Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Gladys Knight And The Pips - Silk 'N Soul (1969)	Are the musicians credited on this?
Juke Jules SUBS 22nd Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Jerry Lee Lewis / Carl Perkins - Sunstroke! 12 Great Classics Of Country Rock By Jerry Lee Lewis And Carl Perkins (1966)	Clearly 'booger' which Wiktionary defines as "A thing; especially a problematic or difficult thing" (etym related to boggart), but this would have caused problems for airplay in Britain at the time
Juke Jules SUBS 22nd Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Jerry Lee Lewis / Carl Perkins - Sunstroke! 12 Great Classics Of Country Rock By Jerry Lee Lewis And Carl Perkins (1966)	Thanks for that information Tony, and for adding the record (I can cross that off my 'to do' list ;-)
Juke Jules SUBS 19th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated - At The Cavern (1964)	In 1964; "The Cavern has launched more name groups than any other club in Britain" including - you guessed it - "Gerry And The Pacemakers, The Merseybeats and The Big Three"
Juke Jules SUBS 18th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Jerry Lee Lewis / Carl Perkins - Sunstroke! 12 Great Classics Of Country Rock By Jerry Lee Lewis And Carl Perkins (1966)	Mike Raven is fondly remembered by many members of the 45cat community and it is good to see this instance of his work. The promotional leaflet mentions a 'series' which he was to have put together, and it will be interesting to see if any more of these show up here. I don't know what the Embassy NR- series was for, but we have a few later NR- releases here already. Mike Raven had an interesting career, of which his Pirate Radio work was only a small part - see Wikipedia
Juke Jules SUBS 14th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album Billy Idol - Billy Idol Songs: 11 Of The Best (1988)	[YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 12th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album UFO - Force It (1984)	Plenty of, um, taps in the bathroom there ;-) Artwork by Hipgnosis [YouTube Video]
Juke Jules SUBS 12th Jan 2014		Vinyl Album The Idle Race - The Birthday Party (1989)	Oh what fun we will have trying to recognise all those 'guests' - from Buddy Holly to Jimmy Savile. I look forward to seeing the artwork for the original UK release of Birthday Party [YouTube Video]
