An evening with old friends...


Straight Shooter - Deep In The Night (1984)

Tracklist:
1. Deep In The Night
2. Blue Collar

As I promised, here's some more STRAIGHT SHOOTER for y'all. After 6 albums and 6 years with their label Sky Records, the band had changed to a major label, RCA. Unfortunately, this was their first record for a major label and their last record ever made. Anyway, "Deep In The Night" is a very enjoyable Song. Hope you'll like it.

Another "old friend" of mine, that I introduced in some of my older posts. As the title says, LANCELOT have indeed a history, here it is in brief: founded in the 70's, one minor hit single in germany in the early 80's (But I Just Can't Stay Behind) relocated to L.A. around '85, renamed band to JUICY LUCY, recorded one album under that nam, but without success, went back to germany in '91. In '95, before they went on under the new name PARAGRAPH 51, they decided to re-record some of their old material and release it under their old name, LANCELOT. And voila, here it is, their album "History".

Red Aim - Sinai Jam (1996)

Tracklist:
1. Intro
2. Monastir
3. Wombat
4. Desertspoon
5. Sinai Jam
6. Nadi

Now to my last one for tonight. Bought this CD yesterday. Thought it would be a nice addition to this blog, RED AIM's very first record, self-released in 1996. The band normally plays their very unique stoner rock style, but this album's quite far from stoner rock, it's a trip into late 60's psychedellic Kraut-Rock. like they were heavy on LSD. As they say on their homepage, they only wanted to enter the studio to record a 3-track demo. Shortly before that, they met a strange old guy with a didgeridoo and a sitar and took him with 'em ... so here's the result. Trippingly recommended!
