Video Find: The Impressions

Amazing live version of Its Alright
from a 1965 TV Show Hollywood A Go Go

Video Find: The Jam-Move On Up (Live Performance)

Speaking of covers, I think this is one of the best covers ever. I came across this video some time ago. Its taken from a TV show in Granada from 1982, and shows The Jam belting out this Curtis Mayfield song with perfection. This illustrates the preface for Weller's next step to The Style Council. His progression was completely logical.

About/

I'm an Art Director/Designer from New
York City. I find inspiration in many
things. Architecture, Art, Design, Fashion,
Film, Football, Furtniture, Photography,
Mid-Century, Modernism, Music, Scooters,
Travel and Typography. This is merely
a collection of things I find inspiring.
I hope you can enjoy them too.
They give me something to focus
on when I'm feeling uninspired.

All MP3s are high quality and/but for sampling purposes only.

The download links are not hosted by
me, I only post a link when I find it and approve that its legitimate and quality. Download it, listen to it, love it, and then go buy the record. Support the music. In 20 years you'll be happier with a fine vinyl collection.

If at any time the artist/owner wishes
to have their album/artwork removed, message me and your request will be fulfilled immediately. If you want a credit and there is not already one, please message me and I will add one.
