The Ever-Green Blues - 7 Do Eleven LP 68 w Comin' On CD 69 19 w Elijah - st CD 72 w Elijah Fanfares CD 73


A big thanks to Jon for requesting that I get their 1968 vinyl on top to add to his submissions of the second album and then two albums by related band Elijah.  The vinyl is outstanding to me reminding me of Chicago Transit Authority or the first Blood, Sweat & Tears.  Of course they have to cover the Spencer Davis Group classic 'Gimme Some Lovin' to reflect their influence.

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you! I always wanted to hear this album but never could locate a copy of it in my record collecting days. Had the single of Midnight Confessions which was enough to make me want to hear the whole album. Always wondered how Mercury had been unable to break the single when Grass Roots took it to the top of the charts less than a year later. Really appreciate you taking the time and effort to obtain and record this for me.

Jon, no problem you paid for it! I was thinking I should have mentioned that, I will keep it around in case you need it someday. Yeah, was wondering where I heard that 'Midnight Confessions' song...of course! The Grass Roots I posted. Keep up the good search as you do at that Russian blog to get these files and others you've shown me like Willie Said. I am astounded by our human resources here as it has evolved to make the best music selection in the world!!!! (in my best Bela Lugosi accent)

As long as you retain a digital copy of it in case I do something stupid and lose it I suggest you sell the vinyl and obtain some other cool stuff for us with the proceeds. Unless you wish to personally retain the vinyl. Sounds great! In wonderful glorious mono! I love it!

hey sir, do you happen to have this? https://www.discogs.com/release/2872408-Pasquale-Catalano-Barneys-Version-Original-Soundtrack

HI hanmattan,
I don't have it and only 3 CD exist on discogs.com all in Italy. Thus a $40 purchase for me for something I'm not that interested in. I checked youtube but only a few songs are posted thus I cannot meet your request. If you want to send me money via paypal you can send what it needed using my address at paypal: pjmont@goowy.com Thanks for the comment.

hanmattan, you hit the slot bet with all 7's showing which means the Subtle Hints is on the way for me to rip and post! Thanks for the tips and open for more but can't afford it all unless you want to anti-in. Cheers! Viacom

ClassicMusic20 you're a day late and a dollar short. Please read the comments before making me feel like shit for waisting money.

@hanmattan here's Barney's Version (single disc) @ 320. Not my rip.

This ought to make you even more upset (and yes, I read the comments before I decided to try and raise your blood pressure). Here's a 192 CD rip of Subtle Hints.

O.K. guys, I had a short fuse this Thursday morning when I got to work--will try to hold off when requests come in as you guys seem to be walking libraries. Wow thanks for BV too Jon. Classic to make it up to you I'll be posting the stuff you sent in to go with my Matthew Moore (ironically called "The Sport of Guessing" ha ha) Thanks Given

Let the readers decide which version is best to their ears; vinyl, CD, YT. Post all three.
