Details
[Edit]The digital age finally brings together what business decisions in the ‘70s tore apart. Initially, Mike Cooper had seen these recordings as a double album that displayed the full range of his musical interests. Places I Know became the country-folk-blues album, with a warm, lyrical sound that predates Bob Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks. The Machine Gun Co. is the sound of Cooper working through his improvisatory avant-garde jazz ’n’ rock explorations. Together, they capture the full spectrum of Cooper’s talents. “Three Forty-Eight (Blues for or Against Andalucia)” is vaguely reminiscent of Dylan’s “Went to See the Gypsy,” while “Night Journey” is based on the same blues as Dylan’s “It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry.” Yet tracks like “Time to Time,” “Song for Abigail," and “So Glad (That I Have Found You)” break into the type of idiosyncratic territory that Dylan, Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell, and Tim Buckley have come to through different means. It’s a rare genius made more criminal by its obscurity.
