Juke Jules SUBS 25th Mar 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumBeverly Kenney - Beverly Kenney Sings For Johnny Smith (1956) | Snuggled On Your Shoulder dates at least from 1928

Juke Jules SUBS 20th Mar 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Broadside - To Drive The Dark Away (1975) | The rear sleeve shows a logo for Boston Sound Hunters which is not referenced anywhere else on the images, presumably the logo of the Boston recording studio.
Most tracks have instrumental parts and harmony singing, but Coldbath Fields and Another Morning are sombre unaccompanied solo songs. Typical folk fare for the period by this band from Grimsby.
|
Juke Jules SUBS 17th Feb 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumDianne Davidson - Baby (1971) | Davidson writes a good love song, and like most of her tracks, this Sixty Minute Man is composed by Davidson and Mac Gayden rather than Billy Ward

Juke Jules SUBS 16th Feb 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumVirginia Astley - From Gardens Where We Feel Secure (1983) | "Bucolic" is the word that comes to mind for the whole album

Juke Jules SUBS 16th Nov 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumDusty Springfield - Ev'rything's Coming Up Dusty (1965) | Long After Tonight (first recorded by Jimmy Radcliffe) - Dusty was perfect with Bacharach and David

Juke Jules SUBS 15th Nov 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumPaul Simon - Paul Simon (1972) | Paul Simon seems never to err in choosing musicians to give him just what he needs. Here he was joined by David Spinozza on acoustic guitar, Airto Moreira - percussion, and Russell George on bass

Juke Jules SUBS 13th Nov 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumSimon Fisher Turner - Caravaggio 1610 (1986) | Simon Turner composed the music for the film Caravaggio
|
Juke Jules SUBS 27th Oct 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Walker Brothers - No Regrets (1975) | How does the title track sound, compared to the single mix (GT 42)? I'd never thought the single to be lacking, but now you mention it the other Brothers are virtually mixed out.
|
Juke Jules SUBS 4th Oct 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumMr. And Mrs. Hank Williams - Mr. And Mrs. Hank Williams (1966) | Hank Williams Snr. and his first wife, Audrey, née Sheppard

|
Juke Jules SUBS 31st Jul 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumBlossom Toes - We Are Ever So Clean (1967) | Don't suppose I paid much more! This was Gomelsky's failed attempt to rival Sgt. Pepper, but it has now acheived a minor cult status as Brit Popsike
[YouTube Video]
|
Juke Jules SUBS 30th Jul 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumShirley Collins And Davy Graham - Folk Roots, New Routes (2014) | I was referring to the story that is being told, which is a ghost tale. In this case I presume a young man is trying to find his way to his love (in Nottingham?) but finds himself in another world.
|
Juke Jules SUBS 7th Jul 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumChet Dowling And Bill Minkin - Chet Dowling And Bill Minkin Present Senator Bobby's Christmas Party (1967) | Dowling and Minkin had a minor hit as Senator Bobby and Senator Everett McKinley with "Wild Thing"
Here they seem to focus on parodying Senator Bobby

Juke Jules SUBS 23rd Jun 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumSpooky Tooth With Pierre Henry - Ceremony (1969) | Ceremony: an electronic Mass
The cover art matches the first track rather well

Juke Jules SUBS 26th May 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumPete Brown And Piblokto! - Things May Come And Things May Go, But The Art School Dance Goes On Forever (1970) | ReviewOne of THE standout tracks from the year, High Flying Electric Bird sees the young Mullen hit the ground running, with a beautifully crafted song and some lovely licks that would follow him into the Jazz world, while Bunn's contrapuntal bass riff wrestles for your attention. They support Brown's gravelly delivery of the evocative Art-School-poetry lyrics
