Brian Auger - Introspection

3 disc compilation covering 1967 - 2019
Some great stuff with a nice groove. Find myself liking the older songs the best.
The sound is remarkably consistent given the time span.
Would have liked something more than the meagre liner notes but considering the absurd price I paid ($5.83USD new from Amazon), I ain’t complaining.

Interesting especially at that price! Its around £25 in the UK. 18 unreleased tracks apparently. I've the albums "Befour" (The Trinity) and "Oblivion Express" & "Better Land"

Just checked the Auger Introspection 3 CD set @ Amazon. It's now about $20. Rang got a DEAL and a half!

It was January 2021 that the Brian Auger price sank that low.
It was stranded at my US address for close to a year which is why I’m only getting to it now.

I've been noticing even among internet vendors like Deep Discount/ImportCD as well as Amazon....when stock of particular items are either very low or in low demand, they slash prices. Call it a FLASH sale! I was able to purchase 18 Classical MQA~CD titles from Deep Discount at most 1/3 of their retail cost and noticed that when I purchase them they were no longer available....and CDJapan's prices on those same titles remained 1/3 higher!

And sometimes for those sleep deprived suffering from insomnia ... shopping the internet during those wee small hours [when the world is otherwise fast asleep] GREAT deals/flash sales pop up.

earlier today I pulled one of my cd storage bins out of the closet. I forgot I have a ton of the Zounds CDs from Germany. Zounds CDs were impeccably mastered. It was fun to listen to them and realize just how good the CD can actually sound.

WOW, Ricky! The things 'we stash away!'

I guess this is the good - and the bad - of being a Collector for many many years. Too much music, too little time and definitely a lack of rack space.
Ralphie I bet you can relate.

HA! I could use a separate house just to store all my music/film possessions in. And they're still arriving almost on a daily basis. Even if I lived to be 120 ........

Belly - KING

Gotta be at least 10 years since I’ve played this.
Doesn’t make me want go out and buy the rest of their albums but a decent listen nonetheless.

Was lucky enough to catch Brian Auger play live, pre-COVID. It was great!! the early Oblivion Express albums are favourites of mine.

Will check out that compilation: probably have most of it though, including the Trinity/Driscoll LP's

Did you know he played the harpsichord intro on "for your love" by The Yardbirds? He has some good interviews on youtube.
Chas Chandler also asked him to play with Hendrix, initially

Lloyd Cole - 1D

Pure electronic music, no vocals, just Lloyd and his synthesizer playing “live”.
Pretty rudimentary, kinda hard to discern melodies, but enjoyable if in the right mood.
Not for everyone, would be completely unrecognizable to LC fans.
