Vanilla Fudge - #29

Vanilla Fudge

1967 Atco 1/1/67

Original.  Never been anything like Vanilla Fudge likely never to be again.  This group took music we are all familiar with and work it in ways not done by the originators.  Wonder to listen to but not "hits"  Jazzed up rock n' roll.

Vaughan, Sarah

1987 CBS 1/1/87

Wonderful music by the lustiest Jazz voice of the last half of the 20th century.  She go better as she got older.  She died of lung cancer in 1995.  It was a loss for the music world.  This album demonstrates her talents as age makes her wiser.

Vollenweider, Andrea

1986 CBS 1/1/86

This might be the new age album that got me hooked ( I think I bought a compilation first - then Deep Breakfast).  It is the first album that made me realize  that there is a lot of good new age stuff around.
