 Chris de Burgh, is a British/Irish singer-songwriter. He is most famous for his 1986 love song "The Lady in Red". De Burgh was born in Venado Tuerto, Argentina, to Colonel Charles Davison, a British diplomat, and Maeve Emily de Burgh, an Irish secretary. His father had substantial farming interests, and he spent much of his early years in Malta, Nigeria and Zaire, as he, his mother and brother accompanied Colonel Davison on his diplomatic and engineering work. The Davisons finally settled in Bargy Castle, County Wexford, a twelfth-century castle in Ireland bought by his maternal grandfather, General Sir Eric de Burgh, KCB, DSO, OBE, a former Chief of the General Staff, British Indian Army, and from a distinguished Irish/Norman family. The castle was converted into a hotel where Chris gained much early experience performing to the guests and he later assumed de Burgh as his stage name. After attending Marlborough College in Wiltshire, England, de Burgh went on to graduate from Trinity College, Dublin with a Master of Arts degree in French, English and History. He took his mother's maiden name as his professional stage name. Chris de Burgh signed his first contract with A&M Records in 1974, and supported Supertramp on their Crime of the Century tour, building himself a small fan base. His début album, Far Beyond These Castle Walls, was a folk-tinged stab at fantasy in the tradition of the Moody Blues that failed to chart upon its release in February 1975. Spanish Train and Other Stories is the second album by Chris de Burgh, released by A&M Records also in 1975.01 - Spanish Train02 - Lonely Sky03 - This Song For You04 - Patricia The Stripper05 - A Spaceman Came Travelling06 - I'm Going Home07 - The Painter08 - Old Friend09 - The Tower10 - Just Another Poor BoyLINK |

 Jeremy Storch was born in New York City, and raised in the Jewish heritage. Following high school, Jeremy co-founded the very successful rock group called "The Vagrants." Jeremy was the songwriter, organist and vocalist for the group. Once "The Vagrants" disbanded, in 1968, RCA Records picked up Jeremy to record and release two solo albums, From a Naked Window and Forty Miles Past Woodstock. In 1970, Jeremy's excessive lifestyle caught up with him and he died of a drug overdose on the way to the hospital. In this death experience, God spoke to Jeremy saying, "I am giving you back your life to do some work for Me!" As soon as that was spoken, Jeremy awoke in a hospital bed. Jeremy has now been in ministry for over 25 years and uses his musical ability for the Lord. He has recorded, arranged and produced several albums: "Let Every Knee", "Hebrew Lord", "I Believe in Yeshua", "Praise Your Name", "Behold the Bridegroom", "In Heavenly Places," "He Reigns," "On Mount Zion" and "In the Presence of the Lord."

 William Dennis Weaver was an American actor, best known for his work in television, including roles on Gunsmoke, as Marshal Sam McCloud on the NBC police drama McCloud, and the 1971 TV movie Duel. Most people never even knew that Dennis Weaver had recorded any albums. Dennis has an easy-going voice that's easy on the ear. The lady's voice you hear on a couple of the songs belongs to his wife, Gerry. A good country album.

 Leonard Simon Nimoy is an American actor, film director, poet, musician and photographer. Nimoy's most famous role is that of Spock in the original Star Trek series 1966–1969, multiple films, television and video game sequels. During and following Star Trek, Nimoy also released five albums of vocal recordings on Dot Records, including Trek-related songs such as "Highly Illogical", and cover versions of popular tunes, such as "Proud Mary". The albums were popular and resulted in numerous live appearances and promotional record signings that attracted crowds of fans in the thousands. The early recordings were produced by Charles Grean, who may be best known for his version of "Quentin's Theme" from the mid-sixties goth soap opera Dark Shadows. These recordings are generally regarded as unintentionally camp, though his tongue-in-cheek performance of "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" received a fair amount of airplay when Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings films were released.

 Kevin Ayers is an English songwriter and was a major influential force in the English psychedelic movement. BBC DJ John Peel wrote in his autobiography that "Kevin Ayers' talent is so acute you could perform major eye surgery with it." Ayers was a founding member of the pioneering psychedelic band Soft Machine in the late 1960s, and was closely associated with the Canterbury scene. He has recorded a series of albums as a solo artist and over the years has worked with Brian Eno, Syd Barrett, John Cale, Elton John, Robert Wyatt, Andy Summers, Mike Oldfield, Nico and Ollie Halsall, among others. After living for many years in Deià, Majorca, he returned to the United Kingdom in the mid 1990s. He now lives in the south of France. His most recent album was Unfairground, which was recorded in New York City, Tucson, Arizona, and London in 2006. Joy of a Toy is the debut solo album of Kevin Ayers, a founding member of Soft Machine. Its whimsical and unique vision is a clear indication of how Soft Machine might have progressed under Ayers' tenure. He is accompanied on the LP by his Soft Machine colleagues Robert Wyatt, Mike Ratledge and Hugh Hopper. 01 - Joy Of A Toy Continued02 - Town Feeling.m4a03 - The Clarietta Rag04 - Girl On A Swing05 - Song For Insane Times06 - Stop This Train (Again Doing It)07 - Eleanor's Cake (Which Ate Her)08 - Lady Rachel09 - Oleh Oleh Bandu Bandong10 - All This Crazy Gift Of TimeLINK |

 In a move guaranteed to cause perpetual confusion among discographers and '60s collectors, singer/songwriter Arthur Lee Harper billed himself simply as Arthur (no last name) on his first album, 1968's Dreams and Images, and then as Arthur Lee Harper on his second and last, 1969's Love Is the Revolution. It's the same guy who did both records, and he most assuredly has no connection with the famous Arthur Lee who led the group Love. Arthur, or Arthur Lee Harper, was as mild-mannered a folk-rock singer/songwriter as there was in the late '60s, singing sad songs that emanated fearful uncertainty, as well as slight airs of self-pity and disengagement. His thin voice was so high it almost moved into a range associated with woman singers rather than male ones; if you're looking for a reference point from the period who's almost as obscure, there's Bert Sommer, who had a similarly nearly girlish voice. In some respects the records were much lower-volume, folkier variants of the orchestrated Baroque pop of the early Bee Gees, though of not nearly the same quality, with a reticence that made the late-'60s Bee Gees sound gutsy and forceful. Dreams and Images got at least a little distribution, as it was on Lee Hazlewood's LHI label, but Love Is the Revolution got even less of a hearing, as it was privately pressed.

 Wakeman became an active session musician. In June 1969, he played Mellotron on David Bowie's single "Space Oddity" for a session fee of £9. He went on to play piano for Bowie's "Life on Mars?", "Changes" and "Oh! You Pretty Things" in April 1971 and "Absolute Beginners" in 1985. He also played the piano intro on the Cat Stevens' hit "Morning Has Broken". In 1971 he acquired an early Minimoog synthesiser, purchasing it at half price from actor Jack Wild who believed that it was defective because it only played one note at a time. Piano Vibrations, though publicited in its re-release as the first studio album by English progressive rock keyboardist Rick Wakeman, it's not considered a Wakeman's album. He just played as a session musician and didn't compose any of the tracks. The album was released in 1971 on Polydor, after Wakeman had signed on to A&M Records. The album developed from Wakeman's time as a session musician. A&M Records had signed Wakeman on as the Strawbs' keyboardist at the time of the release. Piano Vibrations, when it has been reviewed, has been described as "slightly cheesy", especially in light of Wakeman's later involvement in progressive rock.01 - Take Me To The Pilot02 - Yellow Man03 - Cast Your Fate To The Wind04 - Gloria, Gloria05 - Your Song06 - Delta Lady07 - A Picture Of You08 - Home Sweet Oklahoma09 - Fire And Rain10 - Classical GasLINK |
 Trans World Pacific Studios was located on Third Street and it was here for the first time that The Doors had ever recorded in a studio. Aura Records had seen that the previous single that Rick & The Ravens had released was not doing so well, so rather than going to the expense of pressing another single and watching it most likely fail, the record company had decided to give The Doors free studio time. The Doors spent three hours in the studio and recorded six demos. The owner for Trans World Pacific Studios was Dick Bock who also produced the demo tapes for The Doors. The demo tapes were recorded before Robby Krieger joined the band. At that time, the group included Jim Morrison on vocals, Ray Manzarek on vocals/piano, John Densmore on drums, Rick Manzarek on guitar, Jim Manzarek on harmonica and an unknown girl that was hired from a local group to play bass. The only copies of these demo recordings were originally owned by World Pacific Studios, John Densmore and Billy James who at the time was a representative for Columbia Records.(Bootlegzone). Hyacinth House is not from this session.01 - End Of The Night02 - Go Insane03 - Hello I Love You04 - Moonlight Drive05 - My Eyes Have Seen You06 - Summer's Almost Gone07 - Hyacinth HouseLINK |
 The Fabulous Rhinestones were an R&B-based band formed in San Francisco in 1971 by ex-Illinois Speed Press guitarist/singer Kal David and ex-Electric Flag (and Bob Dylan, Al Kooper, and Miles Davis) bassist Harvey Brooks. They moved to Woodstock, NY, where they played with members of the Band and some of their own fellow Chicago bluesmen, including Paul Butterfield, and were signed by producer Michael Lang -- the co-producer of the Woodstock festival -- to his own Just Sunshine label. The group cut three LPs over the next three years, all of which received critical raves without selling in huge numbers -- they also got considerable exposure playing on the same bill with the Allman Brothers, Stevie Wonder, and the Doobie Brothers, but their most visible gig was probably playing a 1971 antiwar rally in New York with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. They split up in the mid-'70s and David later played with Etta James, Al Kooper, and Johnny Rivers.(AMG) Harvey Brooks -Bass, Guitar, Kal David -Guitar, Vocal, Marty Grebb -Keyboards, Bass, Vocal, Saxophones, With; Greg Tohmas -Drums, Dave Sanborn -Alto Saxophone, Reinol Andino -Congas, Barry Rogers -Trombone, Randy Brecker -Trumpet, Flugelhorn and Michael Brecker -Tenor Saxophone. 01 - Freewheelin'02 - Down To The City03 - Go With Change04 - What Becomes Of Your Life05 - Vicious Circle06 - Do It Like Ya' Mean It07 - Roots With You, Girl08 - Hurt Somebody09 - WhitecapsLINK |
 The Jaggerz are a pop/rock band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, often considered a one-hit wonder because their only major success was the single "The Rapper", written by Donnie Iris. Released on the Kama Sutra label in late December 1969, "The Rapper", 1969 got to #2 in the Billboard Hot 100 chart for two weeks in March 1970, and sold over one million copies with the gold record awarded by the R.I.A.A..The band's name derives from the Pittsburgh English slang term, "jagger bush," meaning a thorny bush. They were managed by The Skyliners manager, Joe Rock. We Went to Different Schools Together is the second album by The Jaggerz, released in 1970.01 - I Call My Baby Candy02 - Memoirs Of The Traveler03 - With A Little Help From My Friends04 - Looking Glass05 - The Rapper06 - At My Window07 - Things Gotta Get Better08 - Carousel09 - Don't Make My Sky Cry10 - That's My WorldLINK |
 Five Finger Discount, Live in London January 1st 1972. Track 3 maybe from a 80's concert (some says that the date is 1972 but I think that this concert has been recorded in the early 80's because it sounds too "clean" for an early 70's show and the song Five Finger Discount was written and released in 1981 - from Bootlegzone). 01 - Magic Carpet Ride02 - Sookie Sookie03 - Five Finger Discount04 - Hey Lawdy Mama05 - News I Can Use06 - The Pusher07 - Monster08 - Nothin' Like It09 - Hot Summer Night10 - Born To Be WildLINK |
 The Outlaws were an English instrumental band that recorded in the early 1960s. One time members included Ritchie Blackmore, Chas Hodges, Bobby Graham, Ken Lundgren, Mick Underwood, Reg Hawkins, Billy Kuy and others. Their name was originally conceived by Joe Meek, who needed a backing group for Mike Berry's "Set Me Free" in 1960. After that recording, they continued being one of the house bands of his recording studio at 304 Holloway Road, London. As such, they were used for recordings, demos and auditions. Many of their songs were written by Meek and credited to his pseudonym, Robert Duke. They appeared as themselves in the 1963 British film, Live It Up!. "This was a legendary album of Shadows-like instrumentals from the writer of the Tornados' 1962 No. 1 "Telstar", Joe Meek. Hard to get even in 1961 when it was released, and now long deleted on CD too, this disc contains an exceptionally good set from the period when the equally legendary producer Joe Meek was at his best."
