Damn.......Chris is gone. Now I loves me some Savoy Brown without Chris, but if I want the best version (IMO) of Savoy Brown I go to the albums he's on. Can't find a lot of info on this, and at first I didn't think it was Chris Youlden, but no, no from what I can ascertain this is Chris with Top Topham (from The Yardbirds) fronting a band called Bluesprint. Any and all info you can provide would help on this post.

{Out of Print}
Mike Henderson was an original member of blues group the Bel Airs when they formed in Missouri in 1981. They released an album, Need Me a Car, on Blind Pig Records in 1984. Henderson left the band in 1985 and moved to Nashville. The following year, he joined the roots rock band The Roosters. He was also a member of spin-off band The Kingsnakes. The Kingsnakes began playing weekly at the Bluebird Cafe in July 1986. They shortened their name to The Snakes when they were signed by Curb Records. An album, The Snakes, was released by Curb in 1989. In 1988, The Fabulous Thunderbirds covered "Powerful Stuff", a song Henderson had written for The Snakes, for the soundtrack to the film Cocktail. Henderson later became a staff songwriter for EMI. His songs have been recorded by the Dixie Chicks, Trisha Yearwood, Gary Allan and Patty Loveless, among others. Henderson also found work in Nashville as a slide guitarist. He played on albums by Emmylou Harris, John Hiatt, Joy Lynn White and Kelly Willis. Mike Henderson & the Bluebloods released 2 recordings in the 90's Mike later also toured with Mark Knofler in 2001. In 2008, Henderson was one of the founding members of bluegrass group The SteelDrivers. He played mandolin, resophonic guitar and harmonica and co-wrote most of the band's original songs. The SteelDrivers' 2010 album Reckless was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2011. Henderson left The SteelDrivers in December 2011. Adele performed Henderson's song "If It Hadn't Been for Love" for her 2011 DVD Live at the Royal Albert Hall. Henderson has continued to play weekly shows at the Bluebird Cafe with the Mike Henderson Band. ~Wiki

Devotion is a hard driving, spaced-out, distorted
hard-jazz-rock album featuring organist Larry Young, drummer Buddy
Miles, and the little known bassist Billy Rich. This album was recorded
close to the period when McLaughlin had been jamming with Jimi Hendrix,
Young, Miles and Dave Holland. Terrible bootlegs exist of some of their
jams, but bad sound quality and McLaughlin's guitar on the fritz make
the bootlegs a ripoff. Devotion was also sort of a
ripoff. To this day, McLaughlin is angry about the way former Hendrix
producer Alan Douglas mixed this record. Apparently, Douglas spliced
bits of music together here and there that were not supposed to be
connected. Despite this obvious problem, and the fact Douglas paid
McLaughlin only $2,000 to record both Devotion and My Goal’s Beyond , this album is chock full of wonderfully ominous riffs and sounds. Devotion is an overlooked landmark album. ~Walter Kolosky - All About Jazz

Big Black - The Rich Man's Eight Track Tape
Studio recordings @ VBR
{Out of Print}
The Rich
Man's Eight Track Tape is an album by post-hardcore noise rock band Big
Black. It was released in 1987 by Touch and Go Records. The album is a
CD compilation of Big Black's Atomizer album, "Heartbeat" single and
Headache EP. The track "Strange Things" from the original Atomizer LP
was not included on this release.
The title of the album, and the
liner notes by Steve Albini, show the band's low regard for compact
discs (the 8-track tape was state of the art in the 1970s).
Big Black founder/recording studio
owner/all-around curmudgeon Steve Albini has hated the CD format since
the beginning. He considers it inferior in sound quality and overpriced
to boot. Thus, "The Rich Man's Eight-Track Tape," originally released
in the late 80's, is both a compromise to the market and a deliberate
provocation. Albini's own words on the subject:
"This compact
disc, compiled to exploit those of you gullible enough to own the
bastardly first generation digital home music system, contains all
analog masters. Compact discs are quite durable, this being their only
advantage over real music media. You should take every opportunity to
scratch them, fingerprint them and eat egg and bacon sandwiches off
them. Don't worry about their longevity, as Philips will pronounce them
obsolete when the next phase of the market-squeezing technology bonanza
begins."
Of course, it's now been a couple of generations, in
tech terms, since the CD was introduced, and the format is still with
us, though many (like the business executives who make money off them)
believe they're in sharp decline. Rival formats (SACD, DVDA, etc.) have
tried to muscle in, and then there's the swift encroachment of the
lowly mp3. Since none of Albini's bands are available for legal
download, it's pretty easy to imagine his opinion of the format. Big
Black were and are a brilliant band, and anyone who thinks they know
something about "extreme" rock music has to have their music. My
advice: buy two copies of each of their releases on CD, and convert them
to mp3's. That'll be sure to annoy the hell out of him, and an annoyed
Albini is a creative Albini. Then again, take a listen to the CD
versions of the music and the LP versions. Guess which one will sound
better? This is, of course, on purpose. ~Scott Bresinger

Tempest - self titled -1973
Allan Holdsworth
Studio Recordings @320
Out Of Print
Tempest was a British progressive rock band with core members Jon Hiseman (Colosseum) on drums and Mark Clarke (Colosseum, Uriah Heep) on bass. For the band's first album, the line up was completed by Allan Holdsworth (Soft Machine, Gong, U.K.) on guitar, and Paul Williams on vocals and keyboards (Juicy Lucy and others). Later in Tempest's brief history, Ollie Halsall (Timebox, The Rutles) replaced Holdsworth on guitar and Williams on vocals. The group are referred to as a "minor supergroup" in liner notes. The band released two albums, Tempest (1973) [originally released as Jon Hiseman's Tempest], and Living In Fear (1974).
*My Comment*Living In Fear which only has Jon Hiseman from the original line up, pretty much sucks dog balls.
U.S. drummer Tony Williams discovered Holdsworth around this time, which led to an invite for the up-and-coming guitarist to replace John McLaughlin in Williams' Lifetime project in 1975, as Holdsworth appeared on the Williams recordings Believe It and Million Dollar Legs. But Holdsworth's union with Williams was a brief one, as the guitarist joined up with French-English prog-rockers Gong (for such albums as 1976's Expresso and Gazeuse, plus 1978's Expresso II), in addition to guesting on recordings by Jean-Luc Ponty, Bill Bruford, Gordon Beck, Jack Bruce, UK, and Soft Machine. Also in the late '70s, Holdsworth launched a solo career, which over the years has seen the release of 17 albums (a few standouts include 1983's Road Games, 1985's Metal Fatigue, 1994's Hard Hat Area, and 2000's The Sixteen Men of Tain), as the guitarist has been joined by such acclaimed musicians as Paul Williams (a former bandmate of Holdsworth's in Tempest), Gary Husband, Chad Wackerman, Gary Husband, Jimmy Johnson, Steve Hunt, and Alan Pasqua, among others. In the mid-'80s, Holdsworth was one of the first musicians to use a Synthaxe, a guitar that contained a breath controller that proved to be a cross between a synthesizer, guitar, and saxophone (Holdsworth was awarded Best Guitar Synthesist from 1989 through 1994 in (Guitar Player Magazine's Readers' Poll). In the '90s, Holdsworth created his own signature guitar model with the Carvin company.

You know, I don't like doing re-posts. I guess my thought is why didn't you get this the first time? Now I understand that you may be new here but at least you could do is give a reason why you want a re-post in the comments. Speaking of that, maybe after I have re-posted something YOU'VE REQUESTED it would be nice if you could leave a little something in the comments section to let me know my work wasn't in vain. I'll never understand why our comment section is thread bare as compared to other sites, that post stupid and inane headers. Maybe if I post a header that says "The Rolling Stones Suck" I could maybe generate up a little interest here, but I doubt it. But as always download this and go on your merry way.

First release 1989 This
was the first of many musical projects jello biafra would involve
himself with after the break up of the original Dead Kennedys
Lard is one of several sometime-side projects helmed by the Ministry duo
of Al Jourgensen (guitar) and Paul Barker (bass) -- in this case,
notably fronted by legendary Dead Kennedys singer Jello Biafra, along
with, initially, drummer Jeff Ward. Founded in 1988, Lard was first
brought to the public's attention via the following year's The Power of
Lard EP, and even more so by 1990's inaugural full-length The Last
Temptation of Reid. Both featured a unique blend of industrial and punk,
matched with Biafra's typically political lyrics; but the band's
already sporadic touring and recording schedule (this was, after all, a
side project) was curtailed even further after the shocking suicide of
drummer Ward in 1993. Lard wasn't heard from again until 1997's
critically acclaimed Pure Chewing Satisfaction LP, and then again in
2000, via the '70s Rock Must Die EP -- both recorded with Ministry
mainstay Bill Rieflin on drums. Jourgensen has since stated that Lard
still has one final album in them, but just when this will be recorded,
and whether Barker will be involved following his 2004 exit from
Ministry, remains to be seen. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
Where would we be without Jello and Lard. Well, we'd be in the same place, but we'd have no Jello. And no Lard. And that would not be a happy place.
Oh
At least we've got Lard to explain it to us. ~Anon

With their lurching sea shanties, debauched murder ballads, messed-up
tangos and whiskey-soaked gypsy stomps, some reckon they're from the

the last gang in town swagger of The Clash and the hellbound blues that
John Lee Hooker first dragged out of the swamp. Featuring between 7 to

With Mason Casey, there are no Harmonica Blues cliches, just straight, sharp, heavy modern blues.
"I grew up in upstate New York. Worked in tree care business and then as a stone mason for twenty years. All the while practicing and learning the blues harmonica. Got first harmonica as 18th birthday present. A friend gave me the Muddy Waters record " Hard Again " and I got hooked on that funky electric harmonica sound. I saw J.Geils band in concert and said that’s the kind of rockin’ blues I want to play. I was practicing all the time.
I decided at 35 years old to get out of my home town and try to make it as a full time musician. It was very hard my first year and I was homeless for 4 months. I was sleeping in my car and at friend’s houses : it was crazy ! I got a place after a while and started getting some gigs in NYC, at Dan Lynch, Finnian’s Rainbow and Manny’s Car Wash.
Met Popa Chubby at Manny’s. He saw me playing at Finnian’s and he liked my harmonica style and my act. He let me sit in with him sometimes and I asked him if he would produce a demo CD. He did and took it to Philippe Langlois at Dixiefrog and he said "let’s make a CD" and we made "Reefer Smokin’ Man" in 2000.
I live in Holland now and play music all around Europe, and do session work when called, (the latest CD of soul legend Wilson Pickett " It’s Harder Now " and also on Don Covay’s latest CD ~ MasonCasey

The TKK is probably the koolest band ever. Not really heavy nor soft
music. Just despicable in their own way. So sleazy and evil that they're
just fantastic. I can still pull this album out and listen to A Daisy
Chain for Satan and never get tired of it. Not since 1990 has this album
gotten boring or dated. Very dark, gothic-esq, but still includes their
seventies/funk/devil disco feel, which you have to love,
nobody has ever done better, or even came close to their style. "Days
of Swine and Roses," is a classic track, with its quintessential
gothic/dance melodic beat and disturbing lyrics.."Christian Zombie
Vampires".
~F.O.N
In the same sort of vein as Lords of Acid, KDFDM, or Crystal Method. Some of their other recordings are also out of print. I will post if requested.

Confessions Of A Knife (Theme Part 3)
On this album, the band featured a different lineup that included two
teenage prodigies, the violinist Eddie Jobson (who later found fame with
UK and Roxy Music) and guitarist Kirby Gregory (who subsequently joined
Stretch). These tracks show Curved Air maintained their dynamic and high
standard of musicianship with a brand new line up.
