Brian Auger and Paul Butterfield

[rockpassion]

I just replaced my cartridge with a SoundSmith repaired Shelter 501.  In the proecess of testing this new setup I listened to Brian Augar and Oblivion Express "Live Oblivion Vol. 1".  I vaguely remembered the name from the late 60's but did not remember their music or style.  I found their progressive rock very enjoyable.  Some really good music.

I also listened to Paul Butterfield.  Again, I was not into Blues so I never paid much attention to his music.  Especially, his non-radio stuff.  My taste in music have changed somewhat and I find his style of blues to be very easy to listen to and again, some really nice blues.  The album was "Better Days", I have another 6-7 of his albums which I plan on listening to. 

There really was a lot of great music of different styles in the 60's that never was never played that I am discovering and rediscovering.  Anyone else, have any favorites from this area that was never played.

Here is the site where you can download some original 4-track tape recordings that they did for every show at The Lion's Share:http://bigozine2.com/roio/?p=1744]http://bigozine2.com/roio/?p=1744[/url]
