With these ancient accompaniments now boldly placed front and centre, and pulling in influences from jazz and rhythm and blues, bands such as Blood, Sweat \u0026amp; Tears and Chicago created a new, driving sound that hovered in a previously unexplored Venn diagram sweet spot where hard rock, prog, jazz, R\u0026amp;B and psychedelia all coalesced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Brass Tacks' captures that vibrant, sometimes explosive, time and place, taking us on a seven-year journey into a fabled land where the trombone trumped the guitar, the saxophone ruled supreme and one might even catch a glimpse of the lesser-spotted flugelhorn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompiled by Martin 'Cally' Callomon, and featuring a plethora of household names alongside leftfield inclusions and wilfully obscure curiosities, all of which feature in his extensive spotter's field guide, this is must-hear material for the obliviously hip, the weary musical traveller looking for a new avenue to explore, and those who just like their rock horny.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC ONE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  Blood, Sweat And Tears – Somethin’ Comin’ On\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Chicago - Feelin’ Stronger Everyday\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  The Flock - Uranian Sircus\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  Spirit - Mr. Skin\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  It’s A Beautiful Day - Galileo\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Rock Workshop - Primrose Hill\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  Cold Blood - Shop Talk\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Dreams - Calico Baby\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  Gotham - Ease My Mind\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.  The Ides Of March - Vehicle\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11.  Chase - So Many People\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12.  David Clayton Thomas - Don't Let It Bring You Down\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13.  Michael Bloomfield - Don’t Think About It Baby\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e14.  Tom Rush - Ladies Love Outlaws\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e15.  Genya Ravan - What Kind Of Man Are You?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e16.  Ten Wheel Drive - Tightrope\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e17.  Janis Joplin - Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e18.  Sweathog - Hallelujah\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e19.  Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger \u0026amp; The Trinity - A Kind Of Love In\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDISC TWO\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.  If - Your City Is Falling\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2.  Nucleus - Earth Mother\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3.  Patto - Sugar Cube 1967\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4.  The Alan Bown - Love Is A Beautiful Thing\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5.  Galliard - Skillet\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6.  Heavy Jelly - Too Complicated\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7.  Manchild - I'll Go Back To Venus\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8.  Red Alligator - Slow Down\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9.  The Web - Sunday Joint\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10.  Zoo - City Breakdown\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11.  Titus Groan - It Wasn't For You\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12.  Walrus - Who Can I Trust?\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13.  Wynder K.
