A special treat for y'all!

It was a blustery boxing day, many years ago, in a warm cozy little club in Hackensack, New Jersey, that an entirely unknown Jimi Hendrix recorded this, with Curtis Knight and the Squires, of which he was a member at the time.
Immediately after this, he would be discovered in a club just like this, doing the exact same things...
But this was before anyone knew who he was...
an it smokes...
Here's the first one (i'll post more in a bit...)

DRIVING SOUTH (note.. top quality sound.. ATM calibre!)



Curtis Knight should REALLY get a special mention for how much he supported Jimi in those days... until then Jimi'd been roped in by very strict guidelines as very much a 'sideman'.. but Curtis gave hinm lots of room to show off, and stretch out, and is truly under appreciated for his contribution..
So , THANK YOU, mr Curtis Knight Sir.. from those of us that know!

Repost: my two foghat demos..

Thought i'd just repost this as i've been ill and haven't been able to do much with this blog for a while..
I'll be back folks!
-------------------------------------
In an attempt to throw my hat into the ring for a possibility of getting a gig with Foghat i made a couple demos.. sent them into what i thought was the only Foghat.. i had no idea that there was gonna be TWO Foghats after the dust settled (but not for long, either).. so i don't know if they even got this... But here they are.. I did post em much earlier, but they're remixed and cleaned up..keep in mind they're 20 years old , and on ferric  tapes (it's all i had left)..





P.S. For best results have a good stiff drink and crank it LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you're a rare audio cassette collector your eyes will pop out!

You'll wanna check out my slideshow down below...
I also photographed as many of my vinyl covers as possible.. i'll dig them up and make a slideshow of them too, after i've found the rest of the cassette covers (i've got several TB of artwork to plow thru!)
I have a freddy king christrmas treat on the way tho first, folks!

The 'Public Record' recording method
