Just thought I'd share today's finds with you lot:
'Los Mismos' (Belter) - Spanish covers band do a fantastic version of the theme from 'Ironside', with lyrics en Espanol!
'Joe Harris' (Polydor) - One brilliant track, 'Je Bent Alleen (Ah! Ah! Ah!
', a top brassy thing with heavy Hammond. The rest is all fairly run-of-the-mill Dutch pop, alas.
'Richard John Smith 1' (Bullets) South African LP by a black guy with a huge afro. No funk, but I won't be too hard on him, as living in Johannesburg in 1973 he probably had enough trouble as it is. Half decent rock number called 'Candlelight' though.
'Concerto From The Stars' - Silvetti (Hispavox) - Spanish disco piano/orchestra, some vocals, but some nice buzz flute on 'One Note Samba'
'Sounds Like Hits No 12)
'Pick Of The Hits '72'
'Hit Parade Special vol 3, 5 and 8' (Rediffusion) - can never have enough of these. Ever. Rediffusion's covers LPs were always top quality.
'Sounds Beautiful' 7" - Judith Chalmers and David Jacobs introduce you to the GEC Music Centre 2817, with the help of some well-chosen excerpts from the de Wolfe library. One of those records I always see about but never really bothered with, until I found out it had the de Wolfe stuff on it!
