god DAMN if the world doesn't need more Leon Thomas!

Killin'!

I assume this is way out of print?

Fri. 10/31/08 10:34am Cecile:

You know, g, I have found some great Flying Dutchman stuff for decent prices at used stores in Mpls. I got a lot of my Gato Barbieri back catalog for a song...

Fri. 10/31/08 10:40am Lore:

Was pleasantly surprised to find a Leon Thomas LP on Flying Dutchman in a Mississippi thrift store this past summer.

You also have "Self-Determination Music", Doug? That's another great one.

Fri. 10/31/08 10:42am Carmichael:

Mmmm, nice cozy Hammond B3. Makes me immediately think of Jimmy Smith

Fri. 10/31/08 10:43am Lore:

Carter/Bradford's "Self-Determination Music" is fantastic. I woulda brought it today, but just got ahold of "Flight to Four," which is brand-new to me. WOw!

Fri. 10/31/08 10:43am g:

Thx, Cecile. I originally introduced myself to Leon with a couple of cheap used lp's, but sadly, my current life no longer permits the time/luxury of raising and lowering needles or getting up to flip discs. Strictly digital these days, I'm afraid . . .

Fri. 10/31/08 10:56am Parq:

Aw Doug, Liquidx2 shouldn't be consigned to background music. I saw them on open for the Bush Tetras decades ago. Man, were they loud on stage.

Fri. 10/31/08 10:57am Cecile:

Savoy? My Honkers and Shouters discs were on those.

Fri. 10/31/08 10:58am Cecile:

Parq, speaking of the Bush Tetras, there is a fundraiser for Laura Kennedy from the Tetras. She is waiting for a liver transplant.

more info at www.first-avenue.com, First Avenue club website in Minneapolis. Not affilitated, just at good cause.

Fri. 10/31/08 11:02am Parq:

Thanks, 'Cile, I'll look into that. Are they from Minn?

Fri. 10/31/08 11:05am Doug:

Don't you mean the Bush/McCain Tetras?

Fri. 10/31/08 11:06am Parq:

Aiigghhh! Doug, you just mentioned Palin on the air and then posted about McCain! I know it's Halloween, but stop scaring me!

Fri. 10/31/08 11:07am Cecile:

No, but she ended up here.
If you can get at it, we have really great healthcare, and it's still cheaper to live here than New York. We're also only a little over an hour from the Mayo Clinic.

Fri. 10/31/08 11:08am Cecile:

No, we mean the Kate Bush Tetras. ;D

Fri. 10/31/08 11:08am paulthepostman:

Fri. 10/31/08 11:12am Cecile:

I don't have a clock handy, so I'm syching my calendar.

Fri. 10/31/08 11:30am paulthepostman:

Fri. 10/31/08 11:34am Parq:

PTP, I'm synching that we may have milked this bit dry, but that's never stopped me before.

Fri. 10/31/08 11:34am Doug:

You mean McKinley James's "Ain't Gonna Pick No Cotton" ?? Supreme!

Fri. 10/31/08 11:38am Lore:

Albert Macon and Robert Thomas also do a nice "Ain't Gonna Pick No Cotton" (as "Got to Move"), heard here:
