This post-Family group assembled by Roger Chapman and Charlie Whitney gets back to the British artists' blues-rock roots on this 1977 concert recording.

After Vicious But Fair did nothing in the U.S., Mercury passed on this live double set, which British Phonogram made available to the half-dozen or so Streetwalkers fans in America. There's not much to recommend here, the sound quality is awful, and the vinyl pressing frequently fuzzes into a ball of distortion when the band plays in unison. Chapman tears off a few soulful moments, and when the band doesn't sound like a bunch of prog-rock hacks, it can rock. This is only for the truly fanatical. ~ John Dougan

Originally released in 1977 on the Vertigo label. Streetwalkers were formed by Roger Chapman & Charlie Whitney after the demise of their band Family. Features 11 tracks packaged with a slipcase. BGO. 2004.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Blues Rock Personified...and that voice...
A segue to the great band Family, the Streetwalkers were more of a blues and "bar" band than their predecessor. But there was still the song writing of Chapman and Whitney, still the muscicianship (although blunted a bit by the new rhythm section) and...still one of the greatest rock and blues singers of all time. One still can not get over the performance on "Run For Cover"; even after 25+ years. Worth the wait for the CD release and essential for any British Rock fan...no question.

CD $9.69  4.3 stars Top 500
The third and final Gamma kicks off with "What's Gone Is Gone," a grand bit of science friction awash in keys and vocoder. When axe-god Ronnie Montrose's solo finally kicks in, the guitar serves as embellishment rather than a foundation. Such is the paradox of Gamma, a band with proven chops to spare, trying to be cutting edge without cutting loose. The end result is some kind of fluff-prog (sometimes akin to Grace Under Pressure). Of course the production and drums are totally '80s, while still avoiding the shrillness that taints so many pieces from this period. No traces of new romantic chilliness or bare-bones heaviness hide here, but the nebulous in-between yields some killer cuts, such as left-field single "Right the First Time" and the enjoyable wavy confection "Modern Girl." Cleverness like the Morse code spelling out of "Stranger" and the wild synths in "Mobile Devotion" (featuring some red-hot licks that prove Montrose still has the fire) also make Gamma 3 a good listen. This record doesn't meander as aimlessly as many art projects, but doesn't ...

Gamma 1 CD  (1979)

CD $9.69  4.9 stars Top 500
For Gamma's debut on Elektra, the band picked Mickey Newbury's "Wish I Was" and Hollies/Linda Ronstadt songwriter Clint Ballard Jr.'s "I'm Alive," when maybe Newbury's "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" would have been more appropriate. As far as Ballard's contribution goes, the more familiar "You're No Good" might've worked better than "I'm Alive," creativity not being Gamma's strong suit. With such a cool name as Gamma, the rays that turned Bruce Banner into the Hulk, one might expect Ronnie Montrose to come up with a nice mutated blend of hard-edged Pink Floyd meets Hawkwind. No such luck. The opening track, "Thunder and Lightning," has all the pedestrian elements of a marriage between Foreigner and Bad Company, the mainstream meets the mundane. Ken Scott's production work leaves empty spaces in between the guitar crunch and the keyboard fills, with the work feeling unfinished or rushed. The Hollies' "I'm Alive" is better suited to that band; it ...

L.A. punk rockers playing 1977-style, Brit-inspired punk, the Generators aren't half bad. Singer Doug Dagger has a nice manly sort of voice (though he might want to lose the corny moniker), and it goes well with the Generators' thick, crunchy guitar sound. From Rust to Ruin is a collection of material from the Generators' first two out of print albums, as well as a few singles, compilation tracks, and tunes from import releases, covering 1997-2000. They've also re-recorded a couple of old songs for From Rust to Ruin, "Hanoi ...

Live At The 1971 Monterey Jazz Festival
Sarah Vaughan Live At The 1971 Monterey Jazz Festival CD  (2007)

Live album
CD $10.69  5 stars Audio Samples
Sarah Vaughan was approximately three decades into her career when she stepped onto the stage at the Monterey Jazz Festival in September 1971 and still at the top of her game. Her voice swoops, sways and swings; it's a veritable roller coaster of pitch, tone and tempo, and Vaughan is in complete control of her instrument at all times. The voice is weightier than it was during her early days, but having recently taken a few years off from recording it was primed and ready for the remarkable push Vaughan was prepared to give it. Backed by the very capable trio of Bill Mays on piano (Vaughan introduces him as Willie Mays), Bob Magnusson on bass and Jimmy Cobb on drums, Vaughan wastes no time showing why she always appears on the short list of jazz's greatest singers: On "I Remember You" she takes command of the rhythm and bends it to her will; it's impossible not to fall within her spell instantaneously. Vaughan must know she's on a roll because midway through the song she lets out a "Whoo!" that one might expect to hear from an audience member rather than the singer herself. "There Will Never Be Another You," taken at a breakneck pace, gives the band ample opportunity to blow, and Vaughan stays just far enough ahead to lead the way -- at times it sounds as if she will leave them in the dust, but she never does; chaos is averted and something wholly exhausting but satisfying emerges. She follows that up with a gender-altered revisit to the Beatles' "And I Love Her" (retitled here "And I Love Him" for obvious reasons) that transforms it into a loosey-goosey blues that gives the singer enough breathing room to toy with the lyric in ways Paul McCartney could not have imagined. For the last two tracks, Vaughan is joined by a true all-star cast of horn players (Roy Eldridge, Clark Terry, Benny Carter, Eddie "Lockjaw" ...
