Last week we introduced the list of 20 best LPs that we liked to listen to here at The Little Lighthouse. This week, we move on to the list of five best reissues and archival recordings that came out in or around 2012. The title goes to Tav Falco and a gorgeous reissue of Beyond the Magnolia Curtain with also included Blow Your Top EP and four pages of early history of the band. The whole list looks like this:
01 Tav Falco’s Panther Burns – Beyond the Magnolia Curtain
02 Epic Soundtracks – Wide Smile An Anthology
03 Sandy Denny – The Notes and The Words: A Collection Of Demos & Rarities
04 Nova Mob – The Last Days of Pompeii
05 Dan Penn – The Fame Recordings
Then we move on to the list of the best short forms in the last year. This includes singles, eps, short dowloads etc… The title goes to one of the hardest working bands today, Natural Child for their 45 Mother Nature’s Daughter, which also came out as in a strange new audio format – a tobacco paper roll! The complete list of top 10 looks like this:
01 Natural Child – Mother Nature’s Daughter
02 King Tuff – Wild Desire
03 Drivin ‘n’ Cryin – Songs from the Laundromat
04 Eric Burdon And The Greenhornes EP
