Great treasure--Early Dylan at his Prime.......2006-11-26
The other day I wandered into Starbucks in Charlottesville, and there was a pile of this particular recording, and I bought one for the long ride north. What a pleasure. So why give it only four stars? I've heard that wonderful recording from 1961 with the chatter between songs, and Dylan in such a great mood that he's having a good time. I had a great time listening to this milestone recording, but with the way songs were cut and edited, I only wished for more. Bootleggers of the world, thanks for saving music for future generations. Now, if we could only get legitimate companies to issue that music in the near perfect state that this performance has been issued.
Set List.......2006-07-13
Dylan is one to constantly refine his work through live performance. So, it's always interesting when you get to hear a real early live show. This album is terrific.
Note: This is not the set list included on this Album. It is from the original show that the album was taken from.

Amazing!.......2006-01-23
"A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" is spectacularly performed. The things in the background such as coughing, glasses clinking, and a car horn honking just add to the effect, and the haunting singing of the crowd gives me the chills. Plus, there is a line here that I wish he had included in the final song: "I heard the sound of one person who cried he was human." Beautiful.
"John Brown" also became one of my favorites. The back of the CD case says that tracks 4 through 10 are traditional, but it sounds like a Dylan one to me -- did he in fact write it? Either way, it is a deep and moving performance. I nearly cried when I heard it first.
And finally, Dylan's version of "Barbara Allen" is perhaps the best I've heard. Simon and Garfunkel did a light, up-beat version of this ancient folk tune, and it just didn't fit the piece. Dylan's adaptation, somewhat reminiscent (or rather, preminiscent) of the tune for "Boots of Spanish Leather," accurately captures the solemnity and hope of the song.
The album is full of amazing songs, and I would highly recommend it.

A must have for the avid fan of Son House................2006-09-19
It is amazing that with such a paucity of recordings, this Baptist bluesman's status could forever be forged in the annals of American music as legendary. Son House record a mere 7 Paramount sides in 1930, some field recordings by Alan Lomax in 1941 & 1942, and some sessions in 1965 after his "rediscovery." He put the guitar down around 1942 because, as he stated in an interview in the 1960's, all of his friends were dying, from Charlie Patton to Robert Johnson......he simply thought he would be next if he kept on playing. And so he put his guitar down for 20 plus years.
Outside of the three times he officially recorded in the field or in studio sessions, there is not a lot of material for the avid fan of Son House. Luckily for us, we have recordings such as "Live at the Gaslight in 1965." He may not have the white-hot intensity of the 1930 Paramount sessions, but the intensity is there nonetheless. And we are witness to a soft spoken Son House as he talks very softly between songs.......for me, this is what I enjoy the most even though the music is fantastic. He doesn't say much, but his soft spoken words contrast starkly with his singing and presence. Listening to this album is like finding a treasure, a treasure to be savored and enjoyed partly because it is a testament to one of the all time great names in the genre of the blues. And partly because sadly, there is simply a dearth of recordings by Son House. When the audience applauds in gentle claps, you get the distinct impression that they do not know how great the figure in front of them will ultimately prove to be.
Enjoy the songs on this album.....they were made by a master who to this very day is the epitome of delta blues.
4 1/2 stars.
Listen and Learn.......2004-03-03
Son House taught Robert Johnson the slide blues. Son House taught Muddy Waters. When Son House started performing at Blues festivals again in the mid 1960s, some of Muddy's younger band members would start to go off for a smoke or whatever when the old man came on stage. Muddy wouldn't let them. Muddy Waters would tell all his band members to be quiet and pay attention when the man played because even compared with Muddy, this was the real deal.
Rediscovered in Rochester, New York, relearning to play the guitar, (how this country abuses the masters that come from its people, particularly its Black people), put back on the stage by the folk revival's blues section, House made recordings that reproduced his old masterpies, with a wrier sense of meaning than before.
People outside of the blues life focus on the guitar playing or the rhythm of the singing, but where the power comes from is the feeling and the words that are put together, the life and the meaning of the blues. Son House in his youth and his old age, on this and his other sides, always gave it.
So Like Muddy Waters, I would like you to know that
Son House is the real deal.

Album Description
Paul Roland has been variously described as the last English eccentric, a Twentieth Century troubadour and a romantic in the tradition of Poe, Lovecraft and M.R. James. His songs teem with characters, both grotesque and humorous, juxtaposed and set in music suitably atmospheric and evocative. Spanning the years 1980 to 1990 it encompasses some of his delightful songs and almost stories. 38 tracks including 1 bonus track, 'The Cars That Ate New York'. Last Call. 2003.Customer Reviews:
START HERE!.......2007-06-26
It's a magic swirling trip thru a long and colorful history,meeting some equally colorful characters along the way(Walter the Occultist,Cousin Emilia,Morgan,Ophelia,Aleistair & even Nosferatu himself!)From the Barrett-esque Madeline & Puppet Master to early rockers like Dr Strange,Werewolf of London & Death or Glory...Sea shanties(The Sea Captain)...folk ballads(Ratcatcher's Daughter,Poets & the Painters)...Eastern Psych drugouts(In the Opium Den & 1001 Nights) and best of all - those sublime pop songs,done so elegantly...Blades of Battenburg,Candy Says,& especially Gabrielle(a classic!)
Too many highlights to list...some re-touching of old tracks,and for once,all for the better.Get it while you still can... ESSENTIAL!!!
Jules Verne, Nostradamos and Tolkien would love this........2005-10-06
That said, you DID find yourself here so's something tipped you off. PR is into all kinds of strange stuff, but the focus of this 2cd anthology is his intense love of Tales and Myths which abound in Literature (especially macabre Victorian era) and popular Mythos.
The 38 tracks presented here are anything but gloomy or "evil". The closest musical similarity would be Al Stewart in voice, and the content of these "Tales" would be Stewart's 'Nostradamos'.
As a matter of fact, 'Nostradamos' is the template for ALL the finely crafted music.
These 'Gaslight Tales' are populated with characters from Poe,Lovecraft,Crowley,Dickens,to name a few. Along with diverse ghost,pirate and murder stories,there's also a solid amount of Occult arcana from all kinds of eldritch sources.
The music is VERY melodic,lush and layered.The production qualities are primo, and the music never overwhelms the lyrical telling of these "Tales" (ala Al Stewart). I believe PR does all the instrumentation (ala Mike Oldfield) too, and though the subject matter can appear gruesome, it's delightfully gruesome.
There are 38 tracks total, CD#1 is 21 tracks at 72:30, and CD#2 is 17 tracks at 73:30. Recommended for lovers' of the Supernatural, Science Fiction and Fantasy Literature.

Rough and ready, Russel ROCKS!.......2003-04-17
'The Legend of Barry Kable is a fabulous live recording, great story. I can't decide if I like this or the studio version better, so I keep listening to both! This song alone is worth buying the CD for. 'What You Want Me To Forget' and 'Nowhere' are catchy rock tunes, the latter with a bit of rap thrown in (somehow it works); 'Wendy' is a terrific story about a single mom "she's got no husband, but who cares...she can find a man--any time she wants one. Don't you put her down, she tried to do it right, but sometimes things don't come out quite...the way we plan them......" Great lyrics, 'Wendy' was rerecorded for BLOC, its a bit rougher but more heartfelt here. There's an annoying 6 minutes of silence on the CD between this song and the next 3 "bonus" (unlisted) tracks, which are all decent songs, if not terribly special. I HIGHLY recommend purchasing Bastard Life Or Clarity along with this CD.
Yes, Russell can sing and write music!.......2003-03-27
TOFOG Shows Promise.......2002-10-03
Although "Gaslight" is not the greatest album, there are some gems, namely "Circus," "Oblique Is My Love," "What's Her Name," "Eternity," and two unlisted bonus tracks, "Castle Builder" and "Danielle." Then there are "She's Not Impressed," "David," and "What You Want Me To Forget?", admittedly weaker songs that I nevertheless like, partly because I can still picture them being performed more than a year after the concert.
Owning both "BLOC" and "Gaslight," I have to say my frustration with Crowe's vocals is that he sometimes (surprisingly) "holds back" in the studio recordings. (A notable exception is "Things Have Got to Change," a *great* song from "BLOC" and my personal favorite.) That's why I think "Oblique Is My Love" and "What's Her Name" are two of their best songs; they are live recordings that show their strengths as a band.
Overall, I enjoy TOFOG's music. They have a good sound and seem to have a good time making music together, which is always a treat. Even though they are a much better band live than the weaknesses in their albums might suggest, I'd still recommend giving their music a try.
