Blood Sweat & Tears - LUCRETIA MAC EVIL (from vinyl LP / lyrics)

 



Lucretia MacEvil
Little girl what's your game?
Hard luck and trouble
Bound to be your claim to fame
Tail-shakin' heart-breakin' truckin' through town
Each and every country-mother's son, hangin' 'round
Drive a young man insane
Evil that's your name

Lucretia MacEvil
That's the thing you're doin' fine
Back seat Delilah
Got your six bit jug o'wine, woman
I hear your mother was the talk of the sticks
Nothin' that your daddy wouldn't do for kicks
Never done a thing worth-while
You're just an evil woman-child

Ooh, Lucy, you just so damn bad
Devil got you lucy
Under lock and key
Ain't about to set you free
Sign sealed and witnessed
Since the day you were born
No use tryin' to fake him out
No use tryin' to make him out
Soon, he'll be takin' out his due
What-cha gonna do?

Lucy MacEvil
Honey ya been all night?
Your hair's all messed up, babe
An' the clothes you're wearin'
Just don't fit ya right
Big Daddy Joe's, payin' your monthly rent
Tells his wife he can't imagine where the money went
Dressin' you up in style, evil woman-child
Ooh, Lucy, you just so damn bad

Blood, Sweat & Tears (also known as "BS&T") is an American jazz rock band founded in New York City in 1967, noted for a combination of brass with rock instrumentation. 

After the Al Cooper era, Colomby and Katz looked for a new vocalist and considered Alex Chilton, Stephen Stills, and Laura Nyro, before deciding on David Clayton-Thomas, a Canadian from Toronto. Trombonist Halligan moved to organ and Jerry Hyman was added on trombone. The new nine-member band debuted at New York's Cafe Au Go Go on June 18, 1968, beginning a two-week residency.

The self-titled second album, Blood, Sweat & Tears, was produced by Guercio and much of the album was arranged by Lipsius. It featured fewer original songs but greater chart success. It included Nyro's "And When I Die", "You've Made Me So Very Happy" by Berry Gordy and Brenda Holloway, and Clayton-Thomas' "Spinning Wheel". The band enjoyed headliner status at the Woodstock Festival in August 1969.

Stephen Stills Manassas - DOWN THE ROAD (lyrics / from vinyl LP)

 

https://youtu.be/3Ih3oLVhzBY

When I was a young man
Standin' in the door
The room was dark and smokey
The smell of death befo' me

Think I'll go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's goin' on
Down the road

Lotsa friends and chirren
Layin' in the grass
Hookah makes me crazy
Believe I'm goin' have to pass

Think I'll go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's goin' on
Down the road

Then you find your kokane
Start to movin' fast
Trip, stumble, fall, freeze up
Hope your body last

Down the Road is the second and last studio album by Stephen Stills' band Manassas.

Eric Clapton - BAD BOY (lyrics / from vinyl LP Clapton)

 



I'm just a bad boy
Long, long ways from home
I'm just a bad boy
Long, long ways from home
But I ain't got nobody
To bury me when I'm dead and gone
I'm the cat that scratches and a dog that bites
I'll be your box of matches, baby, when you need a light
I'm just a bad boy
Long, long ways from home
But I ain't got nobody
To bury me when I'm dead and gone
I used to be so good
I stay home every night
I give the best I could
It never turn, that's why
I can't stay here no longer
My luck is running slow
Got to keep on moving
But I ain't got no place to go
I'm just a bad boy
Long, long ways from home
I'm just a bad boy
Long, long ways from home
But I ain't got nobody
To bury me when I'm dead and gone

Crosby Stills & Nash - JUST A SONG BEFORE I GO (lyrics / from vinyl LP CSN)

 



Just a song before I go
To whom it may concern
Travelling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned

When the shows were over
We had to get back home
And when we opened up the door
I had to be alone

She helped me with my suitcase
She stands before my eyes
Driving me to the airport
And to the friendly skies

Going through security
I held her for so long
She finally looked at me in love
And she was gone

[Instrumental (Electric Guitar)]

Just a song before I go
A lesson to be learned
Travelling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned

Stephen Stills Manassas - ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME (lyrics / from vinyl LP)

 


https://youtu.be/PuQbOAaBkb4

Don't look now, don't heed the warning
It's really of no concern
Don't care the sound, they're only just bombing
Anything left to burn

Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ?
Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ? Yes it is

Fire flood familiar famine
The jungle so far away
Blood baked into blackened soil
How many tons a day

Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ?
Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ?
Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ?
Isn't it about time ?
Isn't it about time we learned ?

Julian Cannonball Adderly - THE TUNE OF THE HICKORY STICK (vinyl LP)

 


With guests JOHN COLTRANE, WYNTON KELLY and PAUL CHAMBERS

 

Julian Edwin "Cannonball" Adderley (September 15, 1928 – August 8, 1975) was an American jazz alto saxophonist of the hard bop era of the 1950s and 1960s.  His nickname “Cannonball” was supposedly derived from the word “cannibal,” which his friends called him because of his massive appetite.

 

Adderley is perhaps best remembered for the 1966 soul jazz single "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy”, which was written for him by his keyboardist Joe Zawinul and became a major crossover hit on the pop charts. A cover version by the Buckinghams also reached #5 on the charts. Adderley worked with Miles Davis, first as a member of the Davis sextet, appearing on the seminal records Milestones (1958) and Kind of Blue (1959), and then on his own 1958 album Somethin' Else. He was the elder brother of jazz trumpeter Nat Adderley, who was a longtime member of his band.

Joe Walsh - All Night Laundry Mat Blues (So What vinyl LP / lyrics)


Joe Walsh - All Night Laundry Mat Blues (So What vinyl LP / lyrics)


I got the all night Laundry Mat blues 

Washing everything I own except my shoes 

I got makeup round the collar 

And it smells like sweat 

A dollar in the drier 

And it ain't dry yet

If you wear clothes, you got to pay the dues 

Sing the all night Laundry Mat blues 

Yes you do 

Sing the all night Laundry Mat blues

 

So What is the third studio album by the American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joe Walsh. It was released in late 1974 on ABC-Dunhill Records.

 

Musicians

Joe Walsh – synthesizer, bass, guitar, piano, vocals, background vocals, Moog synthesizer, mellotron, ARP

Jody Boyer – vocals, background vocals

Dan Fogelberg – guitar, vocals

Glenn Frey – vocals, background vocals

Guille Garcia – percussion, conga

Bryan Garofalo – bass, vocals, background vocals

Ron Grinel – drums

Don Henley – vocals, background vocals

Russ Kunkel – drums

Randy Meisner – vocals, background vocals

Kenny Passarelli – bass, vocals

J.D. Souther – guitar, vocals, background vocals

Leonard Southwick – harmonica

Tom Stephenson – organ, keyboards

John Stronach – vocals

Joe Vitale – flute, drums, keyboards

 

Two months before the release of the album, Walsh was asked about the album, and he said "I know this album's going to be an important one for me, but it's not easy to just crank them out anymore, I've got, what, six or seven albums out. I don't want the next album to sound like a bunch of outtakes from Smoker. I want it to be the difference between Revolver and Sgt. Pepper. I've held back [the album's release] until that development was there, even though the record company's been screaming for it. I want it to be a big, big step… in thoughts, vocals, playing and maturity."
