Jazz Stabbers

(via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vVBB9cZAAQ)

A short but spiritual and jazzual mix put together by myself and currently living on Spotify. 

A one off recording project from Liverpool musicians Jimmy Campbell and Billy Kinsley that was released 4 years too late and dismissed as Post-Beatles rubbish. Man were they wrong. The best of Big Star and Badfinger come to mind when listening to their only album called 'Yes It Is'.

This was basically a band of children living in their parents basement in 1968 and this is the song they came up with. Nice.

Canadian band that lasted only a few years but have a hot new sound! Whatever, they were pretty radical.

'Expecting To Fly' by the Buffalo Springfield (1967)

This one comes from the Carl and the Passions – "So Tough album. It's the first time the Beach Boys are joined by Blondie Chaplin and Ricky Fataar from the South African band called the Flame. They both wrote and sung this song so it's basically the Flame with the Beach Boys as the backing band. Carl can suck it.

Small Faces in France in 1968. This is where Tame Impala got their whole vibe.

Martin Newell's often overlooked, sometimes misunderstood but impossible to ignore band, the Cleaners From Venus. This is the best shit.

From the crumbs of Spacemen 3 came Peter Kember and Spectrum.

Danny Kirwan played in Fleetwood Mac from 1968-1972, better known as the "Crazy Years".

From the Early Years album, a collection of souped up demos done by Becker and Fagen while working and writing in the Brillo Building in Manhattan. This is some lost Steely Dan magic right here.

A demo recorded in an an apartment in San Francisco on Folsom street. Screw your Pro Tools.

Keyboardist from the Animals, Alan Price brings the funk off the soundtrack to Lindsay Anderson's allegorical 1973 film about a coffee salesman, 'O Lucky Man'.
