Vinyl I am listening to...

The Band - Stage Fright. Capitol, 1970. Japanese first press I believe. Wish I had the original wraparound poster with the picture by Norman Seeff from some of the other early issues.

When Felix Pappalardi announced he was leaving Mountain, Leslie West and Corky Laing started exploring the possibility of a new band/venture. Pappalardi’s extensive production for Cream meant they all knew each other really well. And so, Jack Bruce joined hands with Laing and West, and in an era of short-lived supergroups one more was added to the roster. Why Dontcha was their first of two studio albums. Clearly the loose, loud, freewheeling Mountain sound with Bruce’s vocals - hard rock with more than a hint of blues - good clean fun!

West, Bruce & Laing - Why Dontcha. 1972, Columbia/Windfall, US

Road Food - the 12th album from The Guess Who, containing two of their most famous tracks - Clap for the Wolfman and Star Baby. Lovely, upbeat record from one of my favourite rock bands. 1974, RCA Victor, US
 
As we celebrate Vijay Diwas tomorrow 16th December, l pay tribute to Sam Bahadur through this marching tune composed by LB Gurung.
