Beachbum,

Which pressing do you have? I have a Simply Vinyl pressing and it has several flaws and is overall nosiy. I love this album and would love to find a good pressing.

thanks

The Kinks - Lola versus Powerman and the MoneyGoRound Part One

It's interesting that on my copy of this original pressing (1970) in the song Lola, it uses Coca Cola instead of the dubbed in Cherry Cola so the BBC would play the song.

Little River Band, "Time Exposure", 1981. I would take a pass on this lp, even though the song, "The Night Owls" is on it(a minor hit?). The very high frequencies are truncated. There is an interesting, but ultimately unsatisfying, thing going on with the main voice. I would almost swear it is digital, but there is no mention of it. It is still possible, though.

What I read on Wiki, The Kinks wrote the song so the lyrics read "and it tastes just like Coca Cola" but the BBC wouldn't play it on air because it infringed on a trademark so they dubbed in Cherry Cola. I'm pretty sure subsequent pressings of the record were all changed to Cherry Cola. Even in this 1970 video Davies used Cherry Cola. I guess Top of the Pops was a BBC production. They obviously wanted the song played/aired.

Traffic(actually it's steve Winwood, jim Capaldi, dave Mason, chris Wood, rick Grech, reebop Kwaku Baah, jim Gordo-on the cover), "Welcome to the Canteen". We(I guess we means me.) forget this is a live album. Produced in 1971. Every song is great. A must have. I was thinking that some of the songs might sound better individually on other albums, but having "Medicated Goo", "Sad And Deep As You", "40,000 Headman", "Souldn't Have Took More Than You Gave", "Dear Mr. Fantasy", Gimme Some Lovin"(a list of all the songs) on one live lp is too good to pass up.
