Who is Pauline Richardson?
I am the proud owner of a copy of this album. Mine has the name Pauline Richardson written after 'With Best Wishes to...'. However, I can't find any reference to this person. Does anyone know who she is and/or how she was connected to the film? By the way, my copy is in fantastic condition having been played perhaps only three times. My mother gave it to me a few years ago - I remember her telling me that it was given to her by someone who worked on the film who wasn't a Cliff fan. Neither was my mother, but she kept it and the album remained untouched for over forty years!

rec: Feb 13/14, 1964 in Como, Miss. by Chris Strachwitz:
Fred McDowell, vox, guitar: *Annie Mae McDowell, vox

In 1959 folklorist Alan Lomax traveled around the southern United States recording the music he heard in the fields. He was the first to capture Fred McDowell on tape, including a few of McDowell's songs on an Atlantic Records LP and thus introducing McDowell's sound to a huge audience. Suddenly, at age 55, the guitarist was lauded as a great "new" discovery in the blues world. When Chris Strachwitz of Arhoolie Productions heard the Atlantic record in 1964, he immediately contacted Lomax in order to find McDowell. Strachwitz traveled to Como, Mississippi, where McDowell lived with his wife, Annie Mae, and began a long friendship with them that included a great deal of recording. With each recording, and with every appearance at a major folk or blues festival, McDowell's status as a blues hero grew.

Although most of McDowell's early work was performed on acoustic guitars, he made blues history in Great Britain when he recorded an album there using an electric guitar. The Chicago blues was played on electric, but the Delta blues had always been played on acoustic. Reaction to his electric bottleneck was mixed, but McDowell was so tickled by the electric slide that he never went back to his acoustic guitar.

McDowell learned what he knew studying the Mississippi bluesmasters who came before him in the late 1920s and early 1930s: Charlie Patton, Son House, Big Joe Williams, and Robert Johnson. His own music became part of the folk blues revival of the 1960s, and it was McDowell and those like him who passed the sounds on to the next generation. Legendary rockers the Rolling Stones were impressed with McDowell's early recording of "You Gotta Move." Strongly influenced by his style, they recorded their own version of the track on their Sticky Fingers album. When McDowell received his first substantial royalties from the song, it was the most money he had ever seen...

Admit it, you thought it would never happen
If you asked your average rock fan they would probably have said that there was more chance of the CIA admitting their part in the assasination of Kennedy and Ringo Starr signing another autograph than the new Guns N Roses album seeing daylight. Well guess what? After 17 years, a million false starts and a revolving door policy on guitarists and producers the most anticipated and hyped album ever, dropped on to my desk. :: :: Guns N' Roses, Chinese Democracy.


So what was I expecting? Well, after hearing countless leaked tracks over the last ten years I just hoped the production had improved and the majority of the dross I had heard hadn't made the final cut. I was relieved to both counts.


Is it a masterpiece? No. Will it become a classic like Appetite for Destruction? No. Is it a good album? Surprisingly, Yes.

Not sure why I was suprised really, after all Axl Rose has always had a good turn of lyric and a great ear for melody which has been at the surface of all the previous GNR albums.


On the new album the stand out tracks 'Shackler's Revenge', 'Better', 'Street Of Dreams', 'I.R.S', 'Catcher In The Rye' and 'Riad And the Bedouins' all benefit from Axl's talents and their are definite glimpses of the past glories. If I was being honest then their are maybe 3 songs too many on the album but I guess if you’ve waited nearly two decades to release your new album then you want to cram as much on it as possible.

It’s all too easy to say "It's not Guns N' Roses." Or, "Slash would’ve played that better". Well he may well have played it better but he didn’t and isn’t likely too so move past it.


The musicianship however ::is of a very high standard as you'd expect form a control freak perfectionist like Mr Rose. There are certain elements of an industrial sound in places and a gentle leaning towards Metallica in others but to counter balance that you'll find a couple of sweeping piano led songs that would have sat snugly next to November Rain on the Illusion albums of so long ago.

When all is said and done the album is finally out there and people can now stop talking about it in a mythical way.


As I said earlier, its b no means a classic but it is a strong rock album and believe you me there are many a young rock band ...

In Through the Out Door w/ Paper Sleeve Variations
hi sleightflow!

this album featured an unusual gimmick. while the outer sleeve was made like an plain brown paper bag the inner sleeve was more differently. the a-f variation depends on the inner sleeve. there were six different sleeves. if someone bought the record in housed brown paper sleeve, not sealed, it makes it more impossible to tell which record sleeve they are getting. the code on the spine of the album jacket, which indicated which sleeve it was could sometimes only be seen when the record was sealed.

Question to EIL: IS IT RARE.
hi reduced pies!

it depends on the record condition. from my opinion australian records are more valuable. I've bought "The Police - Zenyatta Mondatta" from australia it it was more expensive as in other countries. though, it's a limited edition colour vinyl only available in oz.

Record Collector reads that the "Jimi Hendrix - Axis Bold As Love" is around 200 pounds in mint condition for the 1967 release. Other reissues are settled between 30-80 pounds.

I hope I explained it as far as possible.
