100% folk album, the excuse was that Dave considered himself a bluesman not a folk singer
Got it. Yeah you have to really read his personal wiki page to get that one.

I think Dusty Springfield's Dusty in Memphis is still in the running for March, as well.

SMH. It'll be in the Listening Notes book Storf writes.

or listen to some of his music. He’s definitely got some Bluesy songs.
And he was the basis for Inside Llewyn Davis which is pretty cool. I picked up an OG of FolkSinger at a flea market awhile back. Great record.

Would be a shame considering it already has quite a few great sounding reissues (ROG and AP I think)

Dusty in Memphis would be an Essentials pick anyway, not Classics. I'm not sure how to make it work as her 9th album anyway.
Of things that weren't nixed, looks like Otis Redding-Love Man or Wilson Pickett-Hey Jude are fits, but it'll probably be something off everyone's radar.

I guess there's nothing to stop VMP from doing another posthumous Otis release in Classics, I'm just not sure if they would.

Would be kind of a lackluster Wilson Pickett album imo. Probably can talk up Duane Allman on guitar but there are better albums from him for sure.

That whole album was recorded at Muscle Shoals, right? A RKS master could make that thing smoke

Wilson Pickett plus Muscle Shoals studio band at FAME studios during that era is 100% gold. Throw in Duane Allman and one of the best solos he ever did.

The ROG Dusty sounds amazing. No need to ever replace that one

Anyone get Yusef yet? Curious how this one sounds.

From Storf in discord:
So I think that probably rules out Wilson Pickett for March as I feel like that's been tossed around a good deal more than "2-3 times".
I've got nothing. Guess we'll just have to wait until Thursday.

It’s not Otis love man either
The annoying part of that email is if you are subbed to Classics the rest of your records will be delayed as well.
Happy Holidays,
VMP
Yup.
So if you ordered anything from the store as a Christmas gift then you're screwed.

Yup, they can send add-on willy-nilly through the month at their expense but I have to wait for Blonde on Blonde to to ship with Yusef. Not even a "hey here is $5 credit for the inconvenience"
