5 out of 5 stars Why isn't Swamp Dogg in everyone's collection?.......2006-07-10

This weird Soul singer has been releasing albums since about 1968, on one little label after another. (Prior to that as Little Jerry Williams and Jerry Williams he cut singles for tons of labels from Calla to Loma to Cotillion.) Never had much success. Word on the street is that he's one tough hustler....Irma Thomas had some sharp things to say about him...same with Ruth Brown.

His records are almost all original compositions, cleverly written with excellent, intelligent lyrics.

Highlight on this out of print collection is "Buzzard Luck" which was an obscure single on the tiny Brut label in 1973, which has (supposidly) Travis Wammack playing an amazing lead guitar.

Worthwhile owning to be sure.

Yes I know you religiously taped this radio show.
The best stuff is either in the King Biscuit vaults or on your basement cassettes.

    4 out of 5 stars 'King Biscuit:Best Of The Best,25 Yrs.Of Rock'(King Biscuit).......2004-10-04

    Does this sixteen track disc bring back memories for you?Showcasing some of the best known songs from bands that were on the weekly FM radio King Biscuit show,I'll say between 1973-82 serve this release the purpose of being an audio diary for those LIKE myself that were loyal listeners of the show.The liner notes gives several individual's personal account of the Biscuit.Here's mine:I remember when a 'live' lp was indeed something special,before import discs became available by the hundreds,that I would sometimes join a gathering at a friend's house while the party was already in progress.I'd hear,say some live songs from Queen.Tunes that I knew were not on 'Live Killers' and another person would inform me that it was a home tape,recorded off a live FM broadcast from the King Biscuit.I've heard from a reliable source that the bands that were on the Biscuit actually LOVED hearing about fans taping the shows 'cause it would MAYBE lure them to buy the group's older lp's.Even though I'm personally more into the obscure music these days,these mainstream gems will always have a place in my collection.My absolute faves are the Kinks "Lola",Emerson Lake&Palmer's "Lucky Man",The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again",BTO's "Takin' Care Of Business" and Rush's "Limelight".Would make a nice gift.
