Prisoner of the Street is one of two studio albums by Chattanooga, TN southern rock band Overland Express. This isn't the best pressing, or the best copy, it's got some issues but it's still listenable. It's been cleaned. Their other album is on YouTube, but it's undated and does include some of the same songs. They were successful live but never got off the ground, they opened for Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gregg Allman, Carl Perkins, several other bands. They seem to have been decently popular in their home town of Chattanooga, especially live, and you can find performances from as far as 2018, and news articles from even later, so these guys never quit. Note track A4 is not listed on some copies. Album is dedicated to the real "Prisoner of the Street", Charles "The Captain" Franklin Baker (b. 1/9/1906.) This video is dedicated to the memory of frontman Keith Sherman [1948-2014].

![Maurice Winnick and His Sweet Music (1977, oldies, full album)
Maurice Winnick and His Sweet Music is one of many compilations for English bandleader Maurice Winnick. Fans of Everywhere at the End of Time will recognize about half the songs on this album. Indeed, its a fact that The Caretaker had a copy of this. Usually I aim to provide clean rips for records, as much as I can. I debated if uploading this was worth it because of the poor quality. The transfers are partly at fault here, they are awful transfers. The record also has several defects, namely an inexplicable squeak-like scratch on Shy. Attempts at audio repair have been made. I paid too much for this to not upload it. At least try to enjoy. Im sorry its not on usual standards.
