Don't ask for a re up of this in the future, I only kept CD 1 & 2, the interviews didn't interest me, listened to them but decide not to keep them. If you happy with just the two cd's then I will be happy to re up them. 

 

2001 - The Best of John Renbourn

2001 - The Best of John Renbourn @320

This compilation provides an excellent overview of John Renbourn's recording career up to The Hermit (1976), showcasing his ability to balance tradition and studied technique with an innovative, adventurous sensibility. Jesse Fuller, Big Bill Broonzy, and Ramblin' Jack Elliot were among Renbourn's earliest muses, inspiring folk-blues explorations like the Appalachian tune "Winter Is Gone," from his 1965 self-titled solo debut. In addition to American music, Renbourn also drew on the sounds of Alexis Korner and Davey Graham; their influence began to manifest itself particularly on his 1966 record with Bert Jansch, Bert and John, which blended folk and blues with jazz. The guitar duets from that release appearing on the present compilation nicely capture what critics called Renbourn and Jansch's "folk Baroque" sound. The collaboration with Jansch led to the formation of the Pentangle and Renbourn's Another Monday (1966) featured his first recordings with that band's eventual singer, Jacqui McShee; of these, "Can't Keep From Crying" is included here. The medieval and Renaissance orientation of 1968's Sir John Alot of Merrie Englandes Musyk Thyng and Ye Grene Knyghte proved influential among new age Celtic musicians; however, that album is represented by a more bluesy track featuring African percussion, "Sweet Potato." Renbourn's sitar playing brings non-western nuances also to "The Cuckoo," from Faro Annie (1971). That record saw him revisit his folk-blues roots, re-enlisting an old collaborator, American gospel singer Dorris Henderson, whose vocal contributions help make "White House Blues" one of this collection's standouts. As a selection of work from 1965 to 1976, which also includes several Pentangle tracks, The Best of John Renbourn offers a solid introduction to his music. Above all, it attests to Renbourn's range as a writer and a performer, making the inadequacy of the catchall tag "folk guitarist" very apparent.

Spacemen 3 - Playing With Fire 2001 (CD Expanded Version) 320 😎

 * Formed in 1982 in the town of Rugby by Pete Kember (Sonic Boom and Jason Pierce (J. Spaceman). Spacemen 3 (along with The Jesus And Mary Chain) were the pioneers of the shoegaze and drone-rock scene which blossomed in the UK at the close of the 1980s. But while both bands showed an obvious affinity for the pioneering sounds of The Velvet Underground, they otherwise found different sources of inspiration, with Sonic Boom and J Spaceman eschewing the The Beach Boys influenced pop symphonics favored by the J&MC's Reid Brothers and instead channeling noisy minimalists ranging from John Lee Hooker to Red Krayola to Suicide. Both founding members have enjoyed considerable success with their respective subsequent projects: Spectrum and Spiritualized. *

Spiritualized - Let It Come Down 2001 320 😎

Discogs 

* As I said at the weekend there will be no Reggae, Dub, Soul or Funk posted by me this week, I am posting other genres of music, all week. Maybe next week it will be all Reggae, Dub, Soul or Funk, but maybe not. *

* And please don't forget my links lifespan is now a lot shorter, 320 will last 6 or 7 days and Flac, Wav, video and Books all will last only 3 days, so you will have to visit more often!! There will be no re-up of posts, but from time to time I might re post an old post with a new link. This works fine for me and they delete them selves anyway!!*
