Highlights from TWILIGHTZONE's Forever Changing - Golden Age of ELEKTRA

So not much around this morning but the fifth disc in the excellent Golden Age Of Elektra Records from the TWILIGHTZONE


Download them all right NOW! 

Track listing and links to all five volumes posted here on the blog

I have said they feature an extraordinary range of music from the commonly well known Love, Eric Clapton (early thankfully) Judy Collins, Lovin' Spoonful, Tom Paxton, Paul Butterfield Blues Band to name but a few but also really obscure folks I had never heard of one of which I feature here because they cover a great Grandpa Jones classic 'Bald Headed End of The Broom' by the Dry City Scat Band (say what now?) which I first heard from the wonderful Waterson Carthy Band and, any excuse I know, but I play that here too! (Norma we miss you!)

But we start the day (week?) with an absolute storming classic from Tim Buckley and his version of Wayfaring Stranger and if you listen to one thing this week make it this . . . . . . . . .

Tim Buckley - Wayfaring Stranger

if that was too sad a start to the week how about this?!

The Dry City Scat Band (yes them!) - Bald headed End of The Broom



Waterson Carthy Band - Royal Forrester/Bald Headed End of The Broom
