Kathy Smith - “2" (1971 USA, 2010 reissue) | Plain & Fancy

 

Kathy Smith - 2 (1971 USA, 2010 reissue)

Again, using this column to shine a bit of light on an album that’s been pinched between the cracks. While there are dozens of reissues pressing down each month, it seems that for each complete knockout, there are just as many superfluous retreads of dollar bin fodder best left to their original incarnations. So Necessary Repress finds me wandering through those records that elude local capture or beg too much on the secondary market. An apt example as any would certainly be the sophomore LP from L.A. folk artist Kathy Smith. Though she’s been a collector’s gem for quite some time, I came to Smith (as I imagine many might have) through Andy Votel’s lovely compilation Folk Is Not A Four Letter Word. Her song “It’s Taking So Long” from 2 gets prime placement on the comp and acts as an easy hook into Smith’s songwriting and style. 

Like her equally scarce debut, Some Songs I’ve Saved, 2 was issued on Richie Havens’ pet label Stormy Forest, which aside from the ‘70s output of Havens himself, only issued the works of Smith, Havens associate Bob Brown, and Canadian folk singer Bruce Murdoch. It’s little wonder then that her albums suffered from a slight lack of promotion. The record breaks from her debut to push a slightly more eclectic mix of songs, though both have a bit of Havens’ stamp of mixed instrumentation and jazz touches – augmenting the album with flutes, slight funk nodes and psychedelic overtones. Her second album is Smith at her peak.

It would have seemed like she was poised for greater things with 2. She’d played to an audience of 600,000 at the Isle of Wight just the year prior and with the album’s expanded palliate it certainly had some potential. However, like other psych-folk gems from the likes of Linda Perhacs, Vashti Bunyan, and Susan Christie, it would prove to slip through the fingers of the buying public. Though unlike any of those it has yet to find a second life in reissue glory. It feels like a record with enough of a cult following to make the crossover. Plus, while its a great record no one needs to spend $100 + on a copy. Recommending this one for a repress, puttin’ the vibes out to the universe.

Rick's Music Video of the Day : Billy Strings and Friends ‘Can’t Let Go’ - Rick Grenda

 After Robert Plant and the peerless voice of Alison Krauss’ version of this song by Randy Weeks it was a hard act to follow but this is curiously very interesting, quite relaxed and loose but heartfelt and the singing is wondrous! Check the line up!

 What’s The Matter With The Mill 

Memphis Minnie & Kansas Joe 

What’s The Matter With The Mill - Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe 

1931

Trouble at the mill. Blues in the groove.

Memphis Minnie and Kansas Joe bring their voices and guitars together in a fine slice of country blues, with an easy interplay that makes this duo such a pleasure to hear.

I think thanks to my old friend and colleague Ian Cole (The Jet Rink Band) Education Officer at MOMA Oxford on my last stint round there who introduced me to this fine fine song first heard by Moon Mullican. What’s up Minnie?

Los Lobos - Will the Wolf Survive 26/03/1987 (Live)

 Sharing her Grandad’s mild obsession with Wolves (yes, that’s right you heard me!) I played my granddaughter the Los Lobos track posted t’other day and she said '...but Grandad I can’t really hear the words' and you know she was right so here’s a clearer one  . . . . with the lyrics

Will the Wolf Survive (Live)

Los Lobos

Through the chill of winter

Running across a frozen lake

Hunters hard on his trail

All odds are against him

With a family to provide for

But one thing he must keep alive

Will the wolf survive?

Drifting by the roadside

Climbs a strong and aging face

Wants to make some honest pay

Losing to the rainstorm

He's got two strong legs to guide him

Two strong arms keep him alive

Will the wolf survive?

Standing in the pouring rain

All alone in a world that's changed

Running scared now forced to hide

In a land where he once stood with pride

But he'll find his way by the morning light

Sounds across the nation

Coming from your hearts and minds

Battered drums and old guitars

Singing songs of passion

It's the truth that they all look for

Something they must keep alive

Will the wolf survive?

Will the wolf survive?

Songwriters: David Hidalgo / Louis Frausto Perez

1984
