The Heavy Metal Piano Man?

Look Closely at the Fellow on the Right!
Yep, That's Billy Joel! THE Billy Joel - "The Piano Man!"
Jon Smalls is the guy on the Left - He was the Drummer...
The Entire Band consisted of these two guys.

Now, from my own personal Scientific and Statistical Analysis and Extensive Surveys (Nah, I'm Pullin' Your Leg),
BUT -
You'll Either Love This Selection OR Hate It!
Ain't much In-Between...
Is it Genius OR Insanity?

Heavy Music Without GUITARS!

Amplified Piano and Organ and Drums...

Bremen,  Germany
April 22, 2010
Soundboard or FM Source @320

Mississippi-born Charlie Musselwhite was a legendary blues-harp player in the tradition of Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson. One of the few non-black--he was a Choctaw Indian--blues-harmonica players to come out of the Mississippi Delta, he grew up in Memphis, TN, where he met up with Will Shade, Furry Lewis and other blues players. He relocated to Chicago in 1962, having learned the finer points of playing the blues-harp and guitar in Memphis, and worked with such blues legends as J.B. Hutto and Mike Bloomfield and many others. Musselwhite has released over 20 albums, as well as guesting on albums by many other musicians, such as Bonnie Raitt's Longing in Their Hearts and The Blind Boys of Alabama's Spirit of the Century, both winners of Grammy awards. He also appeared on Tom Waits' Mule Variations and INXS' Suicide Blonde. He himself has won 14 W. C. Handy awards and six Grammy nominations, as well as Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Monterey Blues Festival and the San Javier Jazz Festival in San Javier, Spain, and the Mississippi Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts.

James McMurtry - St. Mary Of The Woods - 2002

James McMurtry - St. Mary Of The Woods
Studio recordings @320
{Out Of Print}
Available for $30+


Texas singer/songwriter James McMurtry imparts a high degree of literary insight to (perhaps inadvertently) parallel his famous dad, novelist Larry McMurtry. In any event, the vocalist’s penchant for intertwining his wry wit with cleverly articulated, Southern fried lyricism provides a distinct edge throughout. One component of the artist’s appeal resides within his understated delivery amid his ensemble’s non-intrusive but effective brand of Texas style country-rock. Essentially, McMurtry is an insightful storyteller who utilizes rests between verses. He lets you soak it all in prior to moving on. McMurtry seemingly mirrors an underlying C&W musical approach – where rhyming hooks and finicky notions coalesce with straight four beats and rowdy guitar parts. His band provides sympathetic support while also turning up the volume in spots.

Folks, this isn’t all about the typical twang and schlock oriented stuff, such as lovers' reuniting or - drinking moonshine in the backwoods of Texas. McMurtry’s craft is far beyond that! No doubt, the artist and a few others are reformulating the tried and true into some sort of nouveau spin on familiar territory. Recommended! ~ Glenn Astarita

Don 'Sugarcane' Harris - Cup Full Of Dreams - 1973

Don 'Sugarcane' Harris - Cup Full Of Dreams
Studio recordings @320
{Out of Print}

Beginning his career as the guitar playing half of the 1950s rock duo, Don & Dewey, Don "Sugarcane" Harris, put down the guitar and picked up the violin after the lack of success for Don & Dewey (oddly enough the group's songs became hits for other artists such as the Righteous Brothers and the Premiers). Classically trained as a violinist, Harris' skill at improvisation began attracting attention from the rock world and soon he was appearing on records by John Lee Hooker, Frank Zappa and Johnny Otis. In 1970 Harris joined forces with British blues musician John Mayall when the latter was forming his first all American backing band. In addition to joining the backing bands of Mayall, Zappa and others, Harris also recorded a series of albums for labels such as Epic and Polydor. After a lengthy battle with pulmonary disease, on December 1, 1999 he was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment at the age of 61. ~AMG


In 1955 Dewey Terry and a couple of friends started doo-wop band The Squires. The band included Dewey Terry, Don Harris, Lee Goudreau, Bob Armstrong, Chester Pipkin, Leon Washington and Don Bowman. They recorded various singles on various labels. From 1957 on (until about 1967), Dewey Terry and Don Harris continued as a duo: Don & Dewey, releasing various singles on Specialty Records. 1970 saw the first Don & Dewey album release, compiling most of their singles from previous years.

In the late sixties, Don 'Sugarcane' Harris, started playing with and doing sessions for various artists, including Little Richard, Johnny Otis and John Mayall.

In 1969, longtime Don & Dewey fan Frank Zappa, got Don 'Sugarcane' to join his band. Zappa recorded "Hot Rats", "Burnt Weeny Sandwich", "Weasels Ripped My Flesh" and "Chunga's Revenge" with Sugarcane Harris in his band.

In the seventies, Sugarcane Harris recorded and toured with a.o. John Mayall, the Pure Food & Drug Act and made a couple of solo releases. In the early eighties, he played with Tupelo Chain Sex.

The last years of his life, Sugarcane toured with Dewey Terry again as Don & Dewey.

more of those love-songs





They just seem a little weird...

Here's an Excellent Concert from Cheap Trick (One of my Favorite Bands!)
You may or may not already have it?
IF You Don't - I strongly recommend getting it!
It's a Really Good Sounding show and It's got an Interesting Setlist...
It was recorded in 1977 (Before the Big At Budokan Blowout!) and the bulk of the show is made up from songs from their 1st couple albums...
With a few Exceptions:
"Please Mrs. Henry" (Bob Dylan)
"Down By The Bay" (The Move)
"You're All Talk" & "Loser" (Unreleased - At That Time!)

I really like "Southern Girls" & "Downed" Myself!

Let Others Know What You Thought about this D/L...
and Whether They might Want to Get It as well... And Why?



NEW LINK: 2/16/21

And it makes me wonder...

This is an Oddity to me, anyway...
I've read a couple reviews:
One said it was Odd and Strange - The Other called it Killer!
You're gonna have to decide ForYourOwnSelf!

Anyone remember Santa Esmeralda? They had a Big Disco Hit with "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" (made famous by The Animals)...Sometime around 1977-78. The Original LP Version was a touch over 16 minutes long!

Well, To me this is quite similar...
Only it's Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" and "Whole Lotta Love," together with some Originals on the Flip Side.

Side A:
A1a  Intro: Stairway To Heaven (Jimmy Page, Robert Plant)  0:56
A1b  Stairway To Heaven (Jimmy Page, Robert Plant)  8:16
A2  Stairway To Love (Armando Noriega)  0:56
A3  Whole Lotta Love (Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Robert Plant)  6:11
A4  Finale: Stairway To Heaven (Jimmy Page, Robert Plant)  1:00

Side B:
Wonderful Medley
B1a  Wonder Dance  3:30
B1b  Wonder Love  1:26
B1c  Wonder Man (Wonder Woman)  3:00
B1d  Finale  4:36
B2  The Wonder (Armando Noriega)  2:33

This is a Vinyl Rip, since it's Never been Officially released on CD, as far as I could tell...

IF You Do decide to D/L It:
Please Tell Me Why?  What You Thought about It?  Etc...

Thanks to the Original Poster!


Here's a Different Vinyl Rip

Self-taught guitarist Harvey "The Snake" Mandel is a musical innovator whose guitar style comes out of the electric Chicago blues of his youth. He helped to develop playing techniques such as two-handed fretboard tapping, and the use of sustained and controlled feedback during the mid-'60s. He has played with everyone from Charlie Musselwhite (who nicknamed him "the snake") and Canned Heat to Jimmy Witherspoon, Bob Dylan, John Mayall, and the Rolling Stones.

*My Note*
A really good record with a truly horrible cover.

All you need is faith, to hear the diesels hummin'...

This is The Georgia Satellites very First release from 1985. It was a 6 track demo produced by Jeff Glixman (Kansas, Gary Moore, Black Sabbath, Etc.) in Atlanta, Georgia. They were actually named Keith and The Satellites just prior to this recording. But after Band member changes, they changed their name. Then, After these Sessions, for all intents and purposes, they broke up...
Keep The Faith was issued on vinyl by a small UK record label, Making Waves.
Then, American record labels took interest and Dan Baird enlisted The Hell Hounds (Rick Richards, Mauro Magellan, and Rick Price) to reform the band.
By 1986, they were signed to Elektra Records and Glixman produced their First album - You Know The One, The One with THAT SONG that became a BIG HIT! Going all the way to #2 on the Billboard Charts...
It was released on CD in 1994 (but has went OoP) and was released in Australia this year, according to DISCOGS. I couldn't find any links to purchase anywhere and According to the Band's Official Website it was only listed as on Vinyl...?
