Paul Kossoff with Black Cat Bones Paul's Blues (mp3@320)(rock blues)[rogercc][h33t]

PAUL KOSSOFF with BLACK CAT BONES PAUL’S BLUES Audio CD 29 Sep 2008 Label: Sunbeam Format: Mp3@320 With a feeling for guitar "pure and untainted" as Fleetwood Mac's Peter Green was to later observe, 16-year old Kossoff reveals precocious musicianship in 1967 London rehearsals for this Chicago-based blues band, from which this 2-CD set is culled. A musical metaphor for Virginia Woolf's stream of consciousness, his playing is as fluid and expressive as Green or Clapton's, and while these recordings, culled from over six hours of tapes, are often raw, muddy listening, they still compel. Koss, Derek and Stuart Brookes (later to form cult act Leaf Hound) and jazz drummer Frank Perry run through blues standards including `Bad Blood', `Rock Me Baby and `Shake Your Moneymaker' with occasionally weary determination. But when it starts muddling, Kossoff always regains the narrative thread and runs with it. Future band-mate, Free vocalist Paul Rodgers does a brief turn on `I'm Ready', but doesn't sound it. A generous booklet with rare photographs and first-hand experience notes reference with care and detail what must have been special to witness. Fame with Free beckoned a year later, but Kossoff never got over the band's break-up and died in 1976 of heart failure brought on by depression and drug abuse, making this tinderbox moment the more poignant and important to share now.

went to see paul kossoff on the liverpool empire when he was playing for 'back street crawler'.........during the concert he collapsed and fell forward flat on his face and guitar, a terrible sight and one which i will never forget.........needless to say the concert ended abruptly as paul was carried off the stage. it wasn't long after that he died................a sad loss.
