The Famous Groove

[Bilbobaggins]

I'd like to share a couple of nice CD's from the "The Famous Groove" label.

In 1996 they released a double CD, "The Complete Frankie And Johnny Sessions". Housed in a beautiful 10" cover. The session wasn't complete because not all session tapes were at hand. If I'm not mistaken some tapes are lost, even in the RCA vaults. Even though this soundtrack is one of my least favourite, I still take it off the shelve every now and then. Sometimes even just to look at it...

This release wasn't a rushjob.

A year later "The Complete Spinout Sessions" was released. This time the complete session with some bonus tracks added...

I bought a lot of bootlegs in the ’90s, but I didn’t buy any of the Famous Groove label releases....nothing from them was tempting to me.

it was always astonishing to me the bootlegs that were of the studio recordings

the fan recorded stuff I was not surprised by, other than in the amount of people able to sneak devices into shows

my own attempts were hit and miss, more often getting caught with my camera than not
