About This Item

Woodstock and Glastonbury Fayre icon Melanie had been working with Easy Action on the deluxe vinyl and CD re of one of the most legendary albums in her long catalogue prior to her very sad passing. In 1972, Melanie and her producer and husband Peter Schekeryk began work on what she intended to be her most ambitious album yet. Stoneground Words was to be a double album - the first such statement from any female rock artist. It would also be the first worldwide on Neighborhood Records, the tag she and Schekeryk established in 1971 - another first, as she entered territory into which only the Beatles, the Stones and the Moody Blues had previously stepped. Even more crucially, however, it was her personal response to the enormous success, earlier in the year, of the hit InchBrand New KeyInch - Inchthe bicycle song,Inch as so many people recall it. Stoneground Words returned to the drawing board. Ten songs were selected; the remainder were placed to one side; and the album was released to generally positive reviews which included Melody Maker's assertion that it was Inchthe most sophisticated she's made. The naiveté of [the past has] been replaced by deeper, more comprehensive methods of expression.Inch She is the first to admit that the new edition of Stoneground Words is not a true facsimile of the original. The paperwork for all three projects, after all, disappeared long ago, as did the tapes (Inchwho knows where?Inch) Stoneground Words will be released in March 2024 by Easy Action / Neighbourhood Records. Album Tracks 1. Here I Am 2. My Rainbow Race 3. Wild Horses 4. Summer Weaving 5. Between the Road Signs 1. Together Alone 2. Maybe Not for a Lifetime 3. I Am Being Guided 4. I Think It's Going to Rain Today 5. The Actress 1. Pretty Boy Floyd 2. Lovers Cross 3. Maybe I Was a (Golf Ball) 4. Song of the South 5. I Am Not a Poet 6.

Recording sessions took place between December 1978 and June 1979 at Allen Zentz Recording, Westlake Recording Studios, and Cherokee Studios in Los Angeles, California. Jackson collaborated with a number of other writers and performers such as Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Rod Temperton. Five singles were released from the album.

Michael Jackson - Bad   - VINYL LP

Five of the singles hit #1 in the United States, while a sixth charted within the Top Ten, and a seventh charted within the Top Twenty on the Hot 100. Bad peaked at #1 in thirteen countries and charted within the Top Twenty in other territories. Album Tracks 1. Bad 2. The Way You Make Me Feel 3. Speed Demon 4. Liberian Girl 5. Just Good Friends 1.
