Needles & Grooves AoTM /// Vol. 15 - September 2020 /// 15-60-75 (The Numbers Band) 'Jimmy Bell's Still In Town' - Win A Prize Box!

[dhodo]

Thought I had something with this album/band I stumbled on that I've never heard of:

15-60-75 (The Numbers Band) - Jimmy Bells Still In Town

Seems like a cult classic live set that they performed opening up for Bob Marley. Released in 1976. Band was formed in 1969. Most of the clues seem to be related to numbers. Hyphens in their name. Blues rock, including organ. Reissue is a 2xLP.

Not sure how to connect to the Keith Richards or Who clue. Some clues I've got nothing better than it's got a number in it.

Biggest problem though is that the reissue seems quite scarce.

Definitely an interesting album to learn about. I'll have to listen to it some more.

Maybe some ben harper who would fit the influences. I'd like live from mars so i say that.
And for sone reasons the stooges clue made me think of the dirtbombs but cannot really connect them to anything.

London Calling by the Clash?

But that's not 1976...

My guess is that the musician was born in 1976.

 

[Joe Mac]

My guess is that the musician was born in 1976.

So we’re looking at someone active mid 90s onwards if we follow your logic

I looked at active blues related, more modern guitarists and there were a lot that were 77, not 76.

As were all of Ash, hence their debut album being called 1977. I wanna go listen to Ash now, they’re a lot of fun...

 

[Waitressboy]

My guess is that the musician was born in 1976.

Oh, so it's going to be Emma Bunton!?
Baby Spice confirmed!

 

[TCell]

I’ll guess Gary Clark Jr. - This Land



Reasoning:

You can gain another entry in the drawing by buying this months record direct from the artist.

So it needs to be a current artist that sells their own records. Actually, probably a smaller artist than Gary Clark Jr, but...

Keiff clue: Album has a track called “Low Down Rolling Stone”

John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten.

Believe this picture is from the Public Image Ltd. days, is it not?

 

[GritNGlitter]

I am terrible at clues and I never guess, but I am guessing The Wood Brothers - "Kingdom In My Mind" because it popped into my mind and I hear that it's perfect.

 

[wmeugene]

Though the Sex Pistols got their start in 1976, which was sort of ground zero for British Punk.

 

[wmeugene]

Though Damien Marley is apparently the son of Miss World 1976, along with Bob Marley (Tuff Gong clue).

My guess is Superheavy:

SuperHeavy (album) - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

 

[tvham]

T. Rex‘s Get it On (Bang a Gong) came out in 1971, the same year as Rod Stewart’s Every Picture Tells a Story. That’s my guess.

AoTM or not, this record is fabulous.

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

 

[scotthilk]

So my guess is...

Damien Marley - Welcome to Jamrock

...and like I said to my maths teacher ”no I will not show you my working out”

One of my white whales. I wish!
