Paul here's what I found on Davey O'List

Davy O'List is a figure out of '60s British rock who is nearly as elusive as Syd Barrett -- an ironic comparison since O'List actually played briefly in Pink Floyd at a point in their history when Barrett was starting to fade out. A guitarist and singer who also played trumpet, O'List's first gig of any note was with the Attack, a psychedelic outfit that grew out of a band called Soul System. His chance meeting with the latter group's Richard Shirman led to O'List's joining the band on lead guitar in 1966. The Attack's lineup was never truly stable, however, and in less than a year O'List was gone, recruited by Andrew Oldham for membership in the Nice, which was to have been a Booker T. & the M.G.'s-type backing band for P.P. Arnold. The Nice developed a sound of their own and soon split from Arnold, with O'List handling lead guitar and the vocals on their first single. The guitarist's style and temperament, however, didn't mesh well with that of Keith Emerson, the group's flamboyant keyboard player, who had plans of his own for the Nice's sound. O'List left after the first album and the recording of a song or two that later turned up on the group's second long-player. He passed briefly through the lineup of the Misunderstood, and intersected with Pink Floyd just as that band was looking for a successor to Syd Barrett, whose personal instability due to drug use was becoming a major problem, but O'List only lasted a few gigs. He next turned up with Roxy Music for one tour, and he subsequently played on Bryan Ferry's Another Time, Another Place LP in 1974 -- another recording, a single song with O'List, ended up on Let's Stick Together, but by 1975 he'd moved on to a short-lived association with the glitter rock cult band Jet. Since then, O'List's name has mostly surfaced on reissues of the various '60s bands with which he recorded, although he did release a solo album, Flight of the Eagle, in 1997. He remains an elusive and mysterious figure on the British rock scene, some 35 years after he started out.

Bill,  Great find!  Great story / history about O'List, too! You know, I never thought of The Nice as having great guitar work, and Emerson's keyboards are all over their tracks.  Once O'List leaves on  their second lp, Ars Longa Vita Brevis, they go without a guitarist.   I read somewhere that they tried to recruit Steve Howe, yet he left after a day  . . . . regardless the Nice become a symphonic power-trio that led to ELP.  Some folks identify  Ars Longa Vita Brevis as one of the 1st prog rock lps, maybe even the 1st since it was released i think 5 months before King Crimson's In the Court of the Crimson King....

cheers,  Jim

I picked up Dave Alvin's new one "11-11" yesterday , had in on CD but couldn't resist the LP.Gotta say this is the best "new" LP I have purchased in the last few years . Very good quality , clean , flat , no noise . What ever plant YepRoc use is doing a great job and I would not hesitate to pick up more from that label .

Good catch Jlappy! All good. "Child Is Father To The Man" is my all-time Blood, Sweat and Tears favorite... brilliant. And... "Blonde On Blonde" well what can ya say? Quintessential Dylan.

What town is that record store in?

Spent a day with Pman and Mrs Pman at the crackhouse, then went to "THE LAIR OF THE PUMKINMAN" to audition his Vandersteen 3As, he has a very cozy and intimate setup, I could have stayed all day, (possibly napping), but had to roll out after a bit as it was a drive home. Still, played a few albums I know well, I think I may become a Vandy convert. He also had collected a few albums for me I'd been looking for, which added to what I bought, made for a productive day.

From Pman, on vinyl;

Only the Lonely by Frank Sinatra , both a domestic and import copy
Watertown by Frank Sinatra
Teaser And The Firecat by Cat Stevens
Catch Bull At Four by Cat Stevens
Footsteps in the Dark by Cat Stevens
Numbers by Cat Stevens

B.L.T. by Robin Trower

Purchased some Gerry Mulligan vinyl

What Is There to Say by Gerry Mulligan
Jeru by Gerry Mulligan
Compadres (Recorded Live in Mexico) by Dave Brubeck Trio and Gerry Mulligan
Blues Roots LP by Dave Brubeck Trio and Gerry Mulligan

And also on vinyl,

Adventures in Time by Dave Brubeck
Roll With It by Steve Winwood
Jazz Ultimate by BOBBY HACKETT & JACK TEAGARDEN
Suicide Sal by Maggie Bell

And on CD

Ballads by Stanley Turrentine
Reflections by Stan Getz
Stan Meets Chet by Stan Getz and Chet Baker
Best of Chet Baker  by Chet Baker
Jimmy & Wes: Dynamic Duo by Jimmy Smith and Wes Montgomery
Quiet Now: Dreamsville by Sarah Vaughan

Sorry Laura, it's a crossposting from a different forum.

The idea is, a used record store in Allentown PA that Bill introduced me to became our vinyl supplier, or crackhouse. But, as we're all addicted to buying vinyl, then whatever store you go to in order to buy it is YOUR crackhouse, so on another forum there is a thread "Afternoon at the Crackhouse", where we list our purchases. I guess I brought it over to AC via cut & paste.
