[Mr. Shadow]

While cleaning a batch of albums I realised I had a recording of Joan Baez's first recording. She was nineteen years old and was an unscheduled addition to the 1959 Newport Folk Festival.

I discovered that this EP that I copied from my brother's computer:



was a cassette recorded by Steve Wilson limited to only 10 copies in 1990. At the time, he was going under the pseudonym Porcupine Tree which would later become his band's name.

I have no idea how he got his hands on it, but I'm thankful!

I have this really weird single by someone named Barbara Evans.

A: "Charlie Wasn't There"
B: "Nobody's Gonna Hurt You" (? I keep forgetting what the hell it is.)

To this day I have never found any info regarding the artist OR the song but I played the shit out of that record.

 

[TheFeldster]

Not me personally, but a mate of mine got hold of a vinyl John Mayall/Eric Clapton live album which to this day neither of us, nor anyone we've met, has been able to find mention of on the Internet

Can you post a picture of the cover?

This is a photo my mate took of it. From the Decca logo, I doubt it's a bootleg but as I said, we've both done some searching and come up dry, so if anyone knows anything of it, in particular it's rarity, that would be nice

 

[TheFeldster]

Just felt like bumping this, because my mate and I have been discussing the album above recently again.

I know we have had a lot of new very knowledgeable members join since I posted this last May, and the curiousity is killing me, despite my very un-feline nature.

So yeah Bump!
