Albums of the Day:
The Spencer Davis Group – Their First LP (1964) AND The Second Album (1965)

It’s another Two-fer day, just because.

Spencer Davis, Steve Winwood, Muff Winwood, and Pete York produced some incredible music during the last of my school years and the beginning of my working life – one of the tightest bands on the R&B circuit. A magic time that’s probably best left in the murky past.



Their First LP – How can you not love a band whose first single is a John Lee Hooker song? “Dimples” is just one of several excellent covers on this album.






The Second Album – top pick is the brilliant “Keep On Running”. Obviously.
