UPDATE

***********************************************

DEAR FRIENDS, AFTER RECEIVING FIVE NOTIFICATIONS FROM DMCA, I HAVE DECIDED TO CLOSE MY BLOGS, SO ALL THIS SHARING-LINK ACTIVITY IS FINISHED. YOU CAN READ THE COMPLETE TEXT I POSTED ON MY PILOT BLOG - - > HERE

FOR THE MANY MANY PEOPLE WHO KEEP ASKING FOR RECORDS: I'M SORRY, I CAN'T FULFIL THEIR REQUESTS, IT ALL CAME TO A POINT THAT'S 'S TOO DANGEROUS FOR ME. I HAD TO REMOVE THE 97% OF THE ALBUMS I HAD POSTED ON THE SERVERS. The few exceptions are: the bootlegs and the few studio albums authorized directly by the copyright owners.


FOR ALL THE OTHERS, Cyrus (who wants to buy some of my vynil records), Maxoom, Caroalt, Jiro, Trolley Dolly, Phil (who wants my copies of the COB albums), Marnie (who wants my copy of the original "Ptooff"), XJ64, Antiamnbient, Arman, Nicolas, Rick, etc etc , please WRITE ME AGAIN WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, AND I WILL ANSWER YOU, OKAY?

LAST: I RE-UPPED THE FOREST'S LIVE ALBUM FOR THREE PEOPLE WHO ASKED FOR IT, SO IF ANYONE'S INTERESTED, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE.

No pretention of completeness in mind, this blog sees the light with the idea of filling a good number of gaps here and there where I notice that certain music that I particularly like is missing in other blogs. Therefore I will abstain from posting albums that are present elsewhere, except only the cases where I am reported of dirty record scans, incomplete reissues, remixed versions, etc. Other exceptions are cases in which I can offer higher bitrate scans, or also when posting a title is necessary for the completeness of a thread or a discography.

GREENFIELD AND COOK - Second album (Polydor, 1973)

A very good pop group from Holland at their second utterance, in my opinion much better than the first. Here, thankgod, all those  honeydripping bombastic orchestral arrangements are abandoned, curtsey to the unknown "central scrutinizer" who had to take this extremely drastic decision!  The album includes the hit that gave them 5 minutes of popularity, "Far too late", still today a lovely song to listen, reminds me somehow of the Hollies, a band I always loved.  As I said in the Mouth and Macneal post ( == >>  see), this band comes out (1972, first LP) in a period of post-beat while whole world was still hoping for a return of the Beatles (as often announced, especially around 73 and 74), or at least for someone new who'd filled the gap which the Fab 4 had mercilessly left. As for Mouth & Macneal, they come from Holland and the year is 1973.  I listed this album on this blog, because it's definitely out of discussion to post it on a folk-related blog!  ;-) 


 
All in all, a very enjoyable album!
Your COUNTESS
