Me You And Us Too- Small Faces
Dancing With Tears In My Eyes- X
Tucked away on Side Two of "Under The Big Black Sun" and on the b-side of "Blue Spark" are these two minutes of bliss from X.
If I Promise- Jerry Reed
If you don't know Jerry Reed's debut, "The Unbelievable Voice & Guitar," I suggest getting in on it, toot sweet. I guarantee it won't be what you're expecting. Start with this gem.
You're Humbuggin' Me- The Fabulous Thunderbirds
There are so many things I love about buying record collections, not the least of which is getting instant catalogues of an artist. September 1st, I had no hard copies of any Fab T-Birds. September 2nd, I had them all, including the Nick Lowe produced "T-Bird Rhythm," where you will find this killer track.
If There Was A Way- Rosie Flores
Rosie has been around for some time, but 2019's "Simple Case Of The Blues" might be her best. This is one of the many I love on that album.
When The Alarm Clock Rings- Blossom Toes
I think The John Sally Ride knocked this one out of the Cutting Room last week, if I do say so myself. Give a listen to the original from one of the greatest 60's psychedelic records of all time.
Listen, Listen- Sandy Denny
This will be the most beautiful music you will hear today. (Maybe even tomorrow and the next day, too.)
Me You And Us Too- Small Faces
As a lover of all things Small Faces and as someone who has spent more money than I'd like to admit on the countless versions and reissues and upgrades of their catalogue, which is technically only three albums in their heyday, I was blown away when this track popped up on the iPod. At first I didn't recognize it and thought it was some lost Mott The Hoople track. Turns out to be the b-side of "Autumn Stone" and man does this baby rock!

ok...you convinced me...I downloading now,,,,
Looking forward to that Sandy Denny, then!
Now that's what I call a SOTW zip: blinding from start to finish. And there's me thinking the X track is a version of the Ultravox tune (Lamentable of me, I know). Small Faces, Blossom Toes and, blimey, the truly gorgeous gorgeousness of Sandy Denny. Many thanks. Cheers!
