CLEAN RAINBOW CAPITOL 1969 HARD MELODIC PSYCH WINNER!
With PAUL McCARTNEY
===============================
The STEVE MILLER BLUES BAND
BRAVE NEW WORLD
USA - RAINBOW CAPITOL RECORDS - SKAO
Original 1969 first pressing in thick gatefold cover on the rainbow Capitol label...sometimes underated, this is a great, great solid album that, once you get your listening teeth into, will surely surprise...many cuts are highlights -- not a bad track in the buch...the Miller band is stripped down to a cooking hard edged guitar trio centered on killer melodic tracks with infectious sounds...
Brave New World is the third album by American rock band The Steve Miller Band, released in 1969. The tracks "Celebration Song" and "My Dark Hour" featured Paul McCartney on backing vocals, drums and bass guitar credited as Paul Ramon.
The primary guitar riff on "My Dark Hour" (a scorching psych nugget) was also used on the title track to Steve Miller's monster 1976 album Fly Like An Eagle.
"Space Cowboy" uses the same primary guitar riff as the Beatles' song Lady Madonna.
Brave New World, released in 1969 with refrences to celebrations and tripping abound, making this one of the sunniest, trippiest album of the psychedelic era. (Even the album cover is sunny yellow!) The opening of the title track (and the album) is a blast - literally, a bomb blast which hearalds the start of both a fresh, enjoyable tune and a bright new beginning for the world at large. Then, great drumming by Tim Davis kickstarts "Celebration Song," another wonderful vision of a world at play. "Got Love 'Cause You Need It" sounds like it's sung by Miller's infamous Gangster of Love character, full of danger and seduction, while "Seasons" is a gorgeous acoustic ballad, as heartfelt a track as Stevie Guitar has ever recorded. Nice! "Space Cowboy," of course, is another of the the albums big highlights, complete with Moog synthesizer space sounds, and an excellent guitar solo from Miller -- Literally too, too far out! "LT's Midnight Dream" is a fantasy feast, with lyrics like "got a bulldog in my learjet, gonna teach him how to fly"! Paul McCartney of the Beatles contributes drums, bass, and vocals to the blues-rock "My Dark Hour," while "Can't You Hear Your Daddy's Heartbeat?" is a love song in hard double-quick time and "Kow Kow" (also known as "Kow Kow Calqulator") combines more fantasy lyrics with quotes from "Turn on your Love Light". So, if your looking for something of Steve Miller's beyond the usual...
