Rediscovered this yesterday. Had it since forever but it's like dead-on for the early June listening. I know Tony rides.

This is the Atco pressing. Would love to grip a Plumm pressing. Gonna ride back and forth between this and Lee Michaels all weekend I think...

Anyway. Feel free to let this thread die or whatever. Or talk about beer or BLACK PEOPLE.

Yeah didn't the record the whole record like straight through, on some 3 hour shit?





* Edit - just read the back of the jacket. It was actually 6 hours 45 minutes and the album was recorded. Fury indeed. Frosty is that motherfucker.
 
That Lee Michaels joint is my shit!!! One of y'all will have to sell me an extra copy of the Teegarden & Van Winkle? Hook a brotha up!!!





Peace,

That was the first Lee Michaels record I got. I found another one a few weeks later and was like "hell yeah, more drumbreakscreamingmadness". I got home and was like "WTF?!" Even his other live album couldn't touch the S/T.





:hijack:





I still haven't heard that T & V record...
 
I rides for this. I put "Can't Get Enough Of Your Love" on my mix for Grain Edit a couple of years ago:

Really into this record, but as soon as you said Lee Michaels I got the hankerin' to go listen to that.





I don't have a rip of that Teegarden LP, but just found one of their "On Our Way" LP:

I ride for that album! Might have to put it on today, had totally forgotten about it. Reminds me a little of the Pookah album, another woozy sureshot organ LP.
 
This is Teegarden & Van Winkle live, doing their organ-soul thing on local TV - Detroit Tube Works, ca. 1969. Would this be what the album sounds like?

And to think I mainly knew them from this - "God, Love & Rock & Roll," which made them one-hit wonders in 1970:

(BTW, how do you embed videos on this new site, anyway?)
 
I LOVE THAT SHIT!!!


and its definitely right there with Lee Michaels





scarborough fair is soooooo dope


but everything on that record got that stoned out grooove
 
tony your new avatar, yikes.





cos i love this T and VanW album!


i would venture to say that psk turned me on to it in about 2000 and that it was actually a threshold record for me, i started looking for stuff like it when i hadn't done so before. i ride. hi buddy!
 
can i just say, that outta the 3 or 4 albums ive heard with these dudes, the frontlawn shutgun cover live album is the best one by a mile, also, it sorta reminds me of hansson karlsson records due to the simular set up, organ and drums only.. although the swedish duo is a bit more of a space flight, where teegarden and van winkle has the earthy soul sound..
