    Living in KC in 1994, I sold Danny my 1984 Mustang.
    He gave it to his daughter, who wrecked it within two months.

    Does he have anything other than that Live at the Family Dog. I couldn't get into that...Hair covers and such.

    That's Jackie[/b] Washington.

    And that Isley Brothers album isn't folky at all. Maybe it was the hollowbody acoustic guitars they're holding on the cover that threw you?

    Cox has at least three LPs. A few majors and a private.
    But he was never in the Army.

    He had several albums out (I even saw one on Casablanca). They all looked pretty cheesy, so I usually pass on them when I see them.

    Would that joint by Bobby Callendar be considered folk?

    Point taken. I think it qualifies better as acoustic soul, as it does have more acoustic guitar than most Soul LPs of the time. But I guess I wouldn't call most Terry Callier stuff folky either.

    you probably mean a different one than the below 'only looks like fire' item.

    Never thought of it by the instruments used. Stevie Wonder plays harmonica sometimes, but I wouldn't call him a blues singer. It's just a classic album from the Isleys' "black rock" phase, IMO...

    Breck- You know you get down on some steamed soy double-mocha and blast that Bassette LP out of your iPod speakers at the local Java Hut.

    that dude's black??!! I just sold that and had I known he was black I would have held onto to it. Sounds incredibly white. Maybe if he wasnt wearing a hood I would have known.

    even if the dude was purple this record wouldn't get any play in my house.

    strictly of interest to the tinkertoo completist.
