Xann Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Alcatraz - 'Vampire State Building' Opens with an intriguing cover version that I'll mention because the Moonmeister will otherwise On 12/24/2017 at 13:00, mjmooney said: Got that pair, too. Don't play it very often. I like them. It'd been a bit since they'd been on here. Didn't feel the need to skip tracks on either album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hadn't have been interested first time around (Vertigo!) you might have gone back for it when you got into Jazz? Ian Carr is a legend.

mjmooney Posted December 26, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 26, 2017 Yes, I've got Elastic Rock, and I like it. But I haven't played it for yonks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the opener on Side A of the Alcatraz is a cover of the opener on Side B of 'Elastic Rock', except Alcatraz decided to change the name. So it would only be obvious to someone who'd heard the original. Had you down as a banker Veloman as the long shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
