the concord / craft catalog is packed full of so many treasures and great recordings. Simply amazing at the shear amount of recording work Rudy did back then.

Great interview! Geez , 1970 was the year I was born in! Thanks for making me feel not so old, NOT that you're old! You got a lot of life left as good as you look!

Co e for the interview but the commercials from the time are pure gold! I love that stuff and would love to hear more of them! Making is wish we still had record (or even cassette or cd) stores around and walking in to someone spiking up the lateat or whatever they were in the mood for ! Thanks Michael!

@@trackingangle929wow! You have lots of potential content right here by itself ! It must be me as I'm getting older but I have been enjoying more stuff like this. I'm guessing lots of this independent homemade commercials are non existent today sadly. Now we have all these big networks running the same stuff and agenda over and over. This is refreshing !

The old saying of, you are what you do, is true. So Michael is spending all his time not listening to records. He is seeking gossip. He IS from the WW2 victory ✌️ generation and they're mostly seeking to gossip socially. Most of Michael's content is his attempts to be social. But the audience is 90% antisocial. The public has fallen into decline. These TV from the 1980's style of shows just fail. It stops ✋️ being great information and just ends up being robot blah blah language 😑 😐 😒 For example; blah blah blah did blah blah blah and they handed blah over to blah blah blah and they did blah and it impressed blah blah who sold blah to blah blah and they distributed blah to blah blah...etc... and it's a bigger world 🌎 (which is not actually true etc... etc...)

@@Gma7788 That old saying of, If You Can't Say Something Nice, Don't Say Anything at All, still holds true boy. I'm not sure which part of the audience you fall into, the 90% or 10%.

Fantastic NE City ads! Still laffworthy!! Sounds like early '72 based on what's on sale.

MF, part of value I've always felt for decades was/is your efforts with bringing to my attention, artists, MFGs, and industry folk I'm not intimately aware of like in this case, Mr. Scott Billington. I'm a huge fan of Craft's AAA titles of course. Even own a few copies of this release from others. But I went to Wikipedia while listening to your interview and was frankly surprised I wasn't familiar with Scott & certainly unaware of his accolades & awards. Impressive for sure. Look forward to his furure supervision & LPs. Kudos.

Wasn't Bluesville a subsidiary of ABC/Dunhill at some point? 1970, I was 10--11, and it was the first year I went to record stores (and department stores, which all had record depts) regularly, and went to my first concert (Creedence). Ric and Ron rule!

The BluesWay label was a subsidiary of ABC/Dunhill.

Does Craft have access to A.F.O. ? THE new Orleans label circa 1958-63.

That was an excellent interview and guest!! I bought so many great Rounder CD’s in the ‘90’s that Scott produced, especially zydeco. Looking forward to the Bluesville series.

Yeah, so you've admitted you're NOT HERE FOR THE RECORD INFORMATION, you're here for any kind of FAKE SOCIAL GOSSIP. If Michael is doing A, then he's not doing B. Michael is just going to ignore all this records and go after social gossip. All his friends have died off and you're now his imaginary friends. But Michael doesn't realise the audience has MULTIPLE FAKE GIRLFRIENDS and they demand time and money from the audience 🙄 😒 Michael the audience has to get back to their high demanding imaginary porn GIRLFRIENDS. They ain't got any free time left. Now, they've got multiple perfect AI girlfriends. Each 1 demands all their record revenues.

@trackingangle929 what buying reissue after reissue after reissue of the same bloody record ...almost insane.

@cameraplus7233 4 ай бұрын

At 13.20 they explain why stuff gets reissued. Personally, I have very few reissues, but the ones I do, are generally for those very high ticket price price originals that I can't afford, or were never released in the UK at the time, so now is a chance for more people to enjoy.
