IMMEDIATE LETS YOU IN IMLYIN 1 (-68) UK

A label sampler with lots of good music and some very rare cuts. Three of the tracks are original monos, one compatible and the rest true stereo - as they were first issued on '45 or LP. The rare ones are 1) John Mayall and Bluesbreakers "Telephone Blues" - B-side of "I'm Your Witchdoctor" single produced by Jimmy Page for Decca, but since Mayall at the time briefly lost his contract with the label it was issued on Immediate -65. 2) "Draggin' My Tail" - result of a home recording jam between Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page, with some later studio overdubs. 3) Cyril Davies "Someday Baby" - one of five tracks Davies recorded with his All-Stars for Pye records 1962, but never issued by the label. The rest of the record compiles 1968 cuts by Small Faces, Duncan Browne, Nice, Chris Farlowe and P.P. Arnold. You can get some of those tracks with other compilations on LP or CD, but this is a choice as good as any. (SÄM*) (YDÄ*)

  1. As you probably know, those three tracks also appeared on the Immediate series "Blues Anytime" Vol. 1 to 3 (all of them are mono records).
    Those are interesting white blues albums with lots of -at the time- unknown stuff by renowned artists.

    Erik, would it be possible to add tags to your posts? That way we could (for example) search on artist, mono, label, etc. It would really make your site a lot more orderly and easier to locate things.

    Cheers!

  2. I agree those are essential, but haven't got them at the moment.

    Been posting suff every day since april and starting to feel the need for a break - it's all those re-writes to get proper English that takes forever. Then I will have time to update a few things on the page. I'm still computor stupid and find a lot of the tasks on-line complicated and scary :)
