Aster1 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I have to be "going up the country" every few weeks to keep happy!!! Brings back all the days in the late 60's & early 70's for High School and going up the country then. Aster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frances50 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Love the posts on this one. Yes, he does sound a bit like Kermit, never thought of that. This was one of my favorite groups. I even have some of their songs on my IPod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Natural Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 The guitar in "Time Was" from the Hallelujah album is some of my all-time favorite solo stuff. I love the Heat. Thanks, you guys, for posting this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie brown Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson, had a unique voice, and talent. Too bad he had such depression, and self-esteem issues, as to take his own life! "Canned Heat" was Great, Fun, and REAL! CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Before Blind Owl and Bob Hite started Canned Heat, Al had already assembled a huge collection of blues albums, and he was a blues historian, as was Bear. They found Skip James who had inspired much of their music and revived his career. These were not just a bunch og long haired druggies jamming, they were serious about the blues.

jdgm Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Yeah but you try to find something like that in everything in this business I think you went for the wrong M.O. Comedy troop is down the hall. Damn right.... B) Did you ever hear this? REALLY cool stuff Still have and still play this double LP 'Hooker And Heat' which comprises a whole LP of Hooker with Wilson playing harp, just incredible...then another LP with the whole band....best version of "Whiskey and Wimmen" and I should have never sold the "Livin' The Blues" double either which had "Goin' Up The Country" on as well as "Pony Blues", "One Kind Favour" and the 40-minute "Refried Boogie"..... A GREAT band.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall Paul Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 It's ok mate, I'll get Craig, our drummer to meet you there and he'll take you straight to the shack. I'll pull into the marina at that new refuelling wharf and top off the freshers and fuel tanks. All the bait and chum will be in the lower deck freezer no probs. Boonie (remember him, our rythm guitarist), he'll already be there when you and craig turn up. I shouldn't be too far behind. Don't forget to bring your Takamine and a slide with you. I'll bring a six string and so will boonie. Give us something to do in the evening time. I'll get Boonie to show you how he plays and burps the national anthem, it's a crackup! Too funny (lol). Hope this weather holds, that SW blows in, that'll stuff it right up. Catch you there mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
