UPDATE FEB 2011

***********************************
DEAR FRIENDS, AFTER RECEIVING FIVE NOTIFICATIONS FROM DMCA, I HAVE DECIDED TO CLOSE MY BLOGS, SO ALL THIS SHARING-LINK ACTIVITY IS FINISHED. YOU CAN READ THE COMPLETE TEXT I POSTED ON MY PILOT BLOG - - > HERE

FOR THE MANY MANY PEOPLE WHO KEEP ASKING FOR RECORDS: I'M SORRY, I CAN'T FULFIL THEIR REQUESTS, IT ALL CAME TO A POINT THAT'S 'S TOO DANGEROUS FOR ME. I HAD TO REMOVE THE 97% OF THE ALBUMS I HAD POSTED ON THE SERVERS. The few exceptions are: the bootlegs and the few studio albums authorized directly by the copyright owners.

FOR ALL THE OTHERS, Cyrus (who wants to buy some of my vynil records), Maxoom, Caroalt, Jiro, Trolley Dolly, Phil (who wants my copies of the COB albums), Marnie (who wants my copy of the original "Ptooff"), XJ64, Antiamnbient, Arman, Nicolas, Rick, etc etc , please WRITE ME AGAIN WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, AND I WILL ANSWER YOU, OKAY?

Last: I RE-UPPED THE FOREST'S LIVE ALBUM FOR THREE PEOPLE WHO ASKED FOR IT, SO IF ANYONE'S INTERESTED, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE.

.

No pretention of completeness in mind, this blog sees the light with the idea of filling a good number of gaps here and there, where I notice that certain music that I particularly like is missing in other blogs. Therefore my intent is avoiding posting albums that are present elsewhere. Exceptions are: where I'm reported of dirty record scans, incomplete reissues often remixed and unfaithful to the originals, or when I can offer higher bitrate scans, or also when posting a title is necessary for the completeness of a thread or a discography.


Here you won't find links leading to downloads, whenever the "Link" is featured, the album is available, otherwise, it means "work in progress".... If you want an album, please write me a request in the comment section including your email address and where in the world you visit this blog from.

...and if you don't get an answer from me after a certain time, please write again - I'm sorry, but it's not rare that some emails get lost in outer space, unfortunately...

After seeing that certain people keep using some of my pictures (which are not first class, I admit it, but nevertheless were made originally by me) for their blogs, without mentioning me as the owner, I decided to apply a "watermark" on some of them.

Thanks for existing

BOB DYLAN - Bob Dylan vs A. J. Weberman - The historic confrontation (Folkways, 1977) - LP version @320

For completists first, but not only for them
"Bob Dylan vs A. J. Weberman: The Historic Confrontation"
Recorded Jan 1971, published in 1977 and ryteaway withdrawn


My copy sounds still immaculate, although this time we might even accept a normal-quality recording. No Bob Dylan's music, but two long phonecalls which led to legal controversy at the time this record saw the light... On the album we find three songs, two by David Peel and one by Grace Slick (with Great Society, recorded 1965), I understand that a reel-to-cassette version, with the two men talking, was/is circulating, but it obviously lacks the songs.
I didn't yet lose hope to hear one day the song "AJ pig", announced by Dylan in the interview... Producer was Gary Green, not Gentle Giant's member, I guess.
***************************
After a self-crowning ceremony, Weberman dared to call himself no less than "Dylanologist".  Meaning, I assume, that Dylan supplies... Dylan, but who's the one supposed to supply the "logism"?
AJ Weberman, in his Roaring Garbage Years, from this website 
*****************************************************
I decided to make an exception for this LP, because of the TENS  of requests that I received, therefore I'll just post the link directly here, so that everybody's happy, OK my friends?

  1. Uhh...are we supposed to be able to hear the Weberman album? If so, how?

  2. I received a reel to reel copy directly from A.J. many years ago. I assume it still plays, but as you say it is for completists only.

  3. Mr. Anonymous, it's written up there, under the blog's name: "...write me a request in the comment section including your email address and where in the world you visit this blog from."

    Till the next 1,

  4. To Mr. Anonymous Nr 2:
    From AJ directly, interesting...! yes, it seems that he must have tried to make as much publicity as he could for himself, spreading free copies of the phonecalls to anyone who was possibly interested.
    Hey by the way, I hope you took care to disinfect that tape, remember that AJ used to ransack all possible Dylan's trash (and Dylan used to fill his cans with dog shit!) - LOL!

    Back to the point: the only thing that I never understood is how comes that such a good Label Company as Folkways has decided to publish this LP. It's obvious that Dylan would have right away made a mess in order to have it withdrawn!

    I would be in any case interested to hear the tape that AJ gave for free, probably it contains further material that the Folkways excluded from the album...

    Thanks for your comment, see you again :-)

    Your Countess
