The Weavers - Wasn't That A Timesamples
this is an Arve Henriksen album, and it is his horn work that is at the heart of the album. Even the title track 'Strjon', a mere two minutes of spacious, dense sound, seems to contain the spirit of Arve Henriksen's musicianship. An unexpected, diverse and daring piece of work, 'Strjon' is a rare treat, an album which demands repeat listening to reveal its shocking potential.
In Blue CaveHoodoo Gurus been tooling around all day with this cd in the truck pretty catchy Thanks Paul
I just got a used copy of this 1990 issued cd, and the sound is mediocre at best. It's a shame, since the music is terrific. I wonder if the 2002 remastered cd is better in sound quality?
A dated compilation CD (1972), May 18, 2003By A CustomerUnless you have nostalgia for this album when you bought it back in the 1970's, I recommend leaving this CD alone. For the same price there are many import Hollies hits CD's that will give you more songs. (btw Epic doesn't have the original first generation master tapes, EMI in England does.)The only advantage this new remaster has over the original Epic CD is improved sound quality (they fixed the horrible drop-outs that plagued "Bus Stop" and "He' Ain't Heavy") and the compilers used the full length version of "Long Dark Road" instead of the edited 45 single version that was on the original album and CD.I wish the compilers could have added more of the Hollies Imperial-Epic singles (and even the ones that didn't make it in the USA like "I'm Alive", "Listen To Me", "Sorry Suzanne", "The Baby" "Jesus was a Crossmaker", "Don't Let Me Down" "Sandy" and "Draggin' My Heels") and make this an more comprehensive compilation. But instead to keep it at a low price they only added "Air That I Breathe" to the original track listing.If you only want the USA hits, this is fine - but if you want the classic UK-only hits like "I Can't Let Go" and some great obscurities check out the imports. The Hollies made lots of great music beyond these big hits.
i am loving this
