Brent’s 1973

Albums

1)  Larks’ Tongues In Aspic – King Crimson – (LTIA Pt. 1 – LTIA Pt. 2)

Nothing like LTIA!

2)  Raw Power – The Stooges (Search And Destroy – Penetration)

Ageless…right?

3)  Betty Davis – Betty Davis (Come Take Me – Your Man My Man)

Understood “Come and Take Me” isn’t on the original Lp…but god…how funky it it?

4)  Black Beings – Frank Lowe – (In Trane’s Name – Bother Joseph)

Frank at his most fierce lays down a free jazz classic.

5)  Lou Reed – Berlin (Caroline Says II – The Bed)

Gorgeous and harrowing.

6)  Quadrophenia – The Who (The Punk And The Godfather – Sea And Sand)

7)  Faust IV – Faust (Krautrock – It’s A Bit Of A Pain)

8)  Indent – Cecil Taylor (Part 1 – Part 2)

Well…A Master.

9)  Conference Of The Birds – Dave Holland Quartet (See-Saw – Interception)

10)  Selling England By The Pound – Genesis (Dancing With The Moonlit Knight – Firth Of Fifth)

Genesis at they’re most commercial? Seriously!

 

Songs

1)  Aladdin Sane (1913-1938-197?) – David Bowie – Aladdin Sane

Mike Garson’s contributions here can’t be overstated.

2)  Khalid of Space, Pt. 2 Welcome – Larry Young – Lawrence Of Newark

James Blood Ulmer is so right on here and an uncredited Pharaoh Sanders blows!

3)  Jesus Is Waiting – Al Green (Call Me)

His delivery is so moving…make me a believer?

4)  Rain Dance – Herbie Hancock (Sextant)

Herbie steps into the future, or another dimension?

5)  Dolphins – Tim Buckley (Seforina)

Long in his live set…not sure how I missed this on the covers theme…

6)  La Grange – ZZ Top (Tres Hombres)

7)  The Night Comes Down – Queen (Queen)

Honestly not sure if Freddie ever laid down a better vocal track.

8)  They’re Making A Monster – Copperhead (Copperhead Feat. John Cippolina)

9)  Shoot Out At The Fantasy Factory – Traffic (Shoot Out At The Fantasy Factory)

What a groove!

10)  Fur Immer – NEU! (NEU 2)
