You Should Hear This: 1964

Wikipedia shows the album to have been released in the US in 1964. I had the album this song came from, and I remember it to have been in 1964. The link to this song says '65, but I don't think so. Listen to the song "No Time To Lose" by the Dave Clark 5 and see why Springsteen liked this stuff:

Something new I've just heard for the first time from 1964 (I'm 60 years old): this song called "As Long As I Have You" by Garnett Mimms. Led Zeppelin did a cover, but to me it was unrecognizable. According to "The Rough Guide To Led
Zeppelin" book, this was one of the songs that Page and Plant bonded over as a common influence / favorite. Great old sound:

Doc's first solo LP. Still one of my all-time favorite guitarists

If only for the opening 15 minute title track. Whoa

Plenty of Tele, sweet steel and the Buckaroos. Good shee

My parents had this album. This song was particularly memorable... since it's the biggest "Twist & Shout" rip off ever.

Yes ! THIS vinyl album I borrowed in 1964 from a friend's older sister. THIS was my intro to the Motown band and I had started to play drums that year. SO MANY songs from this were my junior high school soundtrack. Had several rich "girlfriends" from up on the hill (this was at that age 12-13 before socio-economic concerns thwarted possibilities) and those hit songs from this album provided the background. Listen to this song from the album...check out how the band SWINGS, especially the drumming....I was so musically impressed by this:

I guess if that JLL live in Hamburg counts, then this should count. Recorded in 1964. This is one of those sets that is so hot, you have to feel that the people in the audience probbably didn't quite grasp what they were seeing.

I listen to this a lot in the car, because it's something the wife and I both readily agree on.

You sure you're not thinking of the Live @ Harlem Square Club?

I haven't heard this one but all reports are that it's much more tame (toned down for Whitey @ The Copa) than the Harlem live record (which I do agree SMOKES).

It's Sam Cooke as a lounge act basically. Live at the Copa is okay, but IMO pales in comparison to the Harlem Square Club record.

I'll admit to liking them both. At the Copa is definitely more laid back and harkens more to the pop singers of the day, but I still think it shows off his voice well and I enjoy that style. But yeah, for a bit more urgency and such the Harlem show is more powerful. Then again, a lot of Cooke's best work was as more of a crooner than a belter so I'm not entirely sure it's any more of an accurate portrait of his style. I guess for me, more than being one or the other, the real Sam Cooke comes out by hearing both, more two sides of a coin than the good Sam Cooke vs the bad Sam Cooke.

And, how about some Wanda Jackson...

Two Sides of Wanda

The last of her original runs of albums to feature her rocking out before she went full on country and then gospel before the alter comeback albums. One side here is rock and the other sides country...all covers but still a really fun listen.

I like this album, but RYM and Wikipedia have it listed as '65. I see that AMG says it was released in 1964. Who knows? Now I wanna check the CD case just to see, but I doubt I'll remember to do it.

Also, Idle Moments is the only jazz album mentioned in this thread that I have and don't particularly like. I don't know what it is about Grant Green, but he's really hit or miss for me. I love Matador and really like Green Street, but Idle Moments is just OK and I sort of dislike Feelin' the Spirit. (That's all I have.)

Might as well throw this one out there since it's another jazz heavyweight from '64:

Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder

A personal favorite as well.

The title track alone on Sidewinder makes it worthy. Amazingly great song.

I've been perusing releases from '64 and came across this.

Anyone heard it? Looks to be their first release and sounds like it laid the blueprint for their whole career.

Quote:

Recorded in 1963, the Dubliners' eponymous debut record helped to bring Irish folk music to the masses, and launched a prolific career that continues to excite, influence, and inform audiences and musicians worldwide. Iconic producer Bill Leader -- he engineered nearly every landmark U.K. folk record throughout the '60s and '70s -- invited a live audience to London's Livingston Studios in an effort to capture the group's raucous pub sound and musical versatility. Those efforts paid off, as The Dubliners still resonates with youthful enthusiasm and a warm, wonderful intimacy sadly missing from the genre's current live recordings. Castle Music's 2003 reissue features the original 14-track recording, which includes the definitive versions of Celtic standards like "The Wild Rover" and "The Rocky Road to Dublin." It also features the entire 1965 Transatlantic Dubliners in Person EP, including the song "Rare Old Mountain Dew," later re-recorded in 1987 with the Pogues. The final six tunes are previously unreleased gems like "Roddy McCorley" and "Chief O'Neill's/Cork Hornpipe," the latter of which would appear on their follow-up, Finnegan Wakes, and go on to become a live staple and fan favorite. The improved sound quality and informative liner notes by John O'Regan are reason enough to pick up this classic recording, but in the end it's the music that speaks the loudest, offering a peek into the creation of one of folk music's best-loved and most enduring ensembles.

Yeah - I am thinking of The Copa, because it's the one I own. And I like it. It is a bit toned down from Harlem Square Club, but if you need some non-offensive music that doesn't fucking suck, this thing is aces.

hey look · **Posted:** Tue Mar 08, 2011 1:58 pm

I've found that with Jazz albums in particular - AMG has their year often listed as the year it was recorded, rather than released - which makes a lot of 60s jazz albums confusing. I've investigated a handful I own that had discrepancies between AMG and RYM and RYM typically had the actual copyright date that was on the record correct.
