Who first released Dylan's 'Tomorrow is a Long Time' ?
Richie Unterberger has a great article at
about the 'We Five' that focuses on the album I find in a dollar bin - 'Catch the Wind.' I discover them just a few years ago on Rhino's "Love is the Song We Sing' collection singing the massive hit 'You Were On My Mind' - its a good one! - and go out and buy the album that contains their hit single.
In Columbus, where I am watching my son play in a soccer tournament, I make my way to 'Used Kids Records' on the second floor of a retail space on High Street near the Ohio State campus - http://www.usedkids.com/home.htm.
Like many other great record stores, you can easily walk by and miss the store completely, but Petra slows us down and I go upstairs.
The store is spacious and lightfilled with clearly marked sections of jazz, rock, and folk etc. There is a 'Newly Added Used' rack right in front and I gravitate to it immediately...
But the record I am thinking about now is in the 'dollar bins.' Dollar bins are the best. Remarkably, this record, 'Catch The Wind,' which features un-credited guitar work by Elvis alumnus James Burton and covers of Donovan, Dylan, George Harrison, Gordon Lighfoot and others - is just a buck.
Score!
