I said the other day that the collectorsof Bowie boots will find the 90s his heyday of ROIOs and they are, as a bodyof work, simply astonishingly good.I ruminated that where Brian Eno his erstwhile frequent collaborator there is hardlyanything of any quality in the same genre but for his close David they are legion!

*Original Notes*
This is the source used for the 3xLP release "Dublin: I'm In Clover”
by Bureau Supply that is scheduled for release tomorrow.
https://www.discogs.com/David-Bowie-Dublin-Im-In-Clover/release/8701706
Breaking Glass is missing both on the source tape and on the vinyl release.
According to a comment on Discogs, the vinyl release is faulty
and has TMWSTW twice instead of Teenage Wildlife.
Some tracks have some static noise.
Artworks for the vinyl release are included, but please feel free to create
proper CD artworks for this great recording.
Received from a kind member that wants to remain anonymous.

Tom Waits picked his 20 favourite albums of all time
FAROUT Magazine 2023
"For a songwriter, Dylan is as essential as a hammer and nails and a saw are to a carpenter. I like my music with the rinds and the seeds and pulp left in – so the bootlegs I obtained in the sixties and seventies, where the noise and grit of the tapes became inseparable from the music, are essential to me.”
Tom Waits
Tom Waits’ 20 favourite albums:
In the Wee Small Hours – Frank Sinatra
Solo Monk – Thelonious Monk
Trout Mask Replica – Captain Beefheart
Exile On Main Street – The Rolling Stones
The Sinking of the Titanic – Gavin Bryers
The Basement Tapes – Bob Dylan
Lounge Lizards – Lounge Lizards
Rum Sodomy and the Lash – The Pogues
I’m Your Man – Leonard Cohen
The Specialty Sessions – Little Richard
Startime – James Brown
Bohemian-Moravian Bands – Texas-Czech
The Yellow Shark – Frank Zappa
Passion for Opera Aria
Rant in E Minor – Bill Hicks
Prison Songs: Murderous Home – Alan Lomax Collection
Cubanos Postizos – Marc Ribot
Houndog – Houndog
Purple Onion – Les Claypool
The Delivery Man – Elvis Costello
"Being inspired by Bob Dylan and The Beat Generation, Waits would later move to Los Angeles, where he signed his first recording contract with Asylum Records. The development of Waits’ sound would gradually move closer to rock, blues and experimental genres, so it was clear that he would cite Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart as an album that had a significant impact on his life.
“The roughest diamond in the mine, his musical inventions are made of bone and mud,” Waits said of Beefheart’s album. “Enter the strange matrix of his mind and lose yours. This is indispensable for the serious listener. An expedition into the centre of the earth, this is the high jump record that’ll never be beat, it’s a merlot reduction sauce. He takes da bait. Dante doing the buck and wing at a Skip James suku jump. Drink once and thirst no more.”

Johnny Jones [early mentor to one Jimi Hendrix]
If you love the blues, you need to know the name Johnny Jones.
Before he became Nashville’s undisputed guitar king, Johnny’s journey started deep in the American South.
Born in Jackson, Mississippi, United States August 17, 1936, he grew up surrounded by the roots of the blues.
By the time he was a teenager in the early 1950s, his prodigy-level talent caught the attention of blues royalty.
He landed his very first professional gig touring with harmonica master Junior Wells, a massive launchpad that quickly established Johnny as a fierce new voice on the scene. Soon after, he spent years on the road backing the legendary Bobby “Blue” Bland, sharpening the razor-sharp phrasing and soulful tone that would soon define the Nashville sound.In the 1960s, Johnny made his way to Nashville’s Jefferson Street, then a blazing hotbed for R&B and the rest is history.
Johnny’s prominent early 1960s band The Imperial Seven, were a fixture at Nashville’s famous New Era Club on Jefferson Street, where a young Jimi Hendrix would regularly show up to watch Johnny play and pick up guitar tips.
Before he was a global icon, a young Jimi Hendrix was stationed near Nashville.
Johnny took him under his wing, helping the young guitarist turn raw talent into a focused, undeniable force.
Nashville folklore still talks about the night Johnny and Jimi went head-to-head in a guitar battle at the Club Baron. The verdict? Johnny won the crowd’s applause that night. When Jimi left town, Johnny even took over his band, the King Casuals!
He brought the underground sound to national TV, tearing it up in the house bands for pioneering 1960s R&B shows like The!!!! Beat and Night Train.
Johnny Jones passed away on October 14, 2009, at the age of 73 in Nashville, Tennessee.
He’s widely recognized as a chief architect of the Nashville R&B and blues movement.
He bridges the gap between traditional Southern blues and the foundational roots of psychedelic rock through his heavy mentorship and stylistic influence on a young Jimi Hendrix.

JAMES RIGBY : THE CONJURER - TUNED - CGCGCE
Going back through the James Rigby compositions for different tunings as I got side tracked by the one DGDDGD here’s another to see you to bed . . . . . . N.B. I play a lot of open tunings from drop D to Open E but some of these that James uses are mesmerising . . . . Fellow guitar fans and players will be interested to note I have a Line 6 guitar in my collection when set up through an amp can play in multiple open tunings at the flick of a switch - it requires a set up so I play my Kalamazoo (Gibson Robert Johnson had one about as old as mine! )and my beloved Harmony [H162] but lately too my oldest guitar my Eko 12 string too (bought in 1972) . . . . .
‘ Night!
