The two most recent (non-soundtrack) albums from Sparks. With the most recent on some nice colored vinyl. 50 years on, still making fantastic music. Can't wait to see them in February!

Get That Feeling - Jimi Hendrix & Curtis Knight Capitol 7" reel 3 3/4

https://www.discogs.com/release/2764019-Jimi-Hendrix-And-Curtis-Knight-Get-That-Feeling
I'd never seen that album before, but when I looked on Discogs I thought that track listing seems familiar. The scans below are of a budget LP I bought circa 1971 (so I was 14) for around £0.50 probably from a Woolworth's store, some of the tracks look similar and I wonder if they are. It does seem to be stereo enhanced mono in a few places!

Bert Jansch's music is a big hole in my music collection!

Maybe you could recommend some titles for me to check out?

I always knew Jimmy Page was a big fan of his.

Yes Page 'borrowed' Blackwater Side by Jansch for Black Mountain Side on Led Zep I.
Jack Orion and Bert & John are great early/mid 60s albums of his, as is L.A Turnaround from ~73. All of Pentangle's albums from 67-72 are worth hearing. Haven't really heard his later stuff.
 
Yesterday I attended the wonderful Vinyl Therapy in a lovely south London pub. The theme was 'smokin'. You play three tracks within the theme, but I got there early so was allowed 4:
Otis Redding: Cigarettes and Coffee
Dave Pike: I Love My Cigar
Sub Sub with Tricky: Smoking Beagles
Siouxsie & the Banshees: Nicotine Stains
My only disappointment was the pub ceiling wasn't brown from tobacco.

I'm aware of a similar event for shellac, which is fairly niche, I wonder if any exist for quad vinyl?
 
Dave Pike! Have been meaning to spin Pike's Peak CD.

Love that Borboletta in the original foil cover. One of his better albums, though certainly not his best.
