1970 and stuff...

Thea Gilmore – “John Wesley Harding” = 2 Stars
It has more strengths than weaknesses but still a bit too “adult contemporary” for me to get fully behind it.

Warren Haynes – “Man In Motion” = 2 Stars
Thea Gilmore “review” here. And with not one song clocking in under five minutes, that’s a gift.

The Mavericks – Trampoline = 2 Stars
Over-produced and underwhelming. And that horn section…please stop.

Stevie Ray Vaughan – “Couldn't Stand The Weather” = 5 Stars
Perhaps even better now than it was when it came out. Yes, five stars despite its weak closer.

Yo-Yo Ma – “Plays Ennio Morricone” = 4 Stars
Two great tastes that taste great together.

G’Hits – The Stiff Records Box Set
Great collection.

Topic
15 best records of the ‘70s. Had to go to 15 as the decade was the most prolific in rock history.
