Labour of Lust
#nicklowe #labouroflust #seventiesrock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #rockpile #daveedmunds #seventiesmusic Nick Lowe releases his power-pop masterpiece on June 9, 1979 -- backed by the incredible Rockpile (Dave Edmunds, Billy Bremner and Terry Williams,) the album has a tight, lean rock'n roll energy throughout. "Cruel to Be Kind" is the standout -- it's just about the perfect pop song. Add "Cracking Up" to the list .. showcasing Nick's knack…

Heard me some Dave Edmunds on @WFMU this morning (thx Clay Pigeon) and I suddenly remembered this existed. Brought me back to being 13 again and watching MTV nonstop.

Dave Edmunds (Rockpile) - Twangin’
And here ends the Rockpile saga. They were in the process of exploding during the making of this album, and don’t appear on all tracks. (The Stray Cats back him on one…)
Still a good record, but definitely tilting heavily Edmunds, and it’s probably the last really good album he made, unfortunately.
Well, Rockpile had an exceptional run…and the players continued to matter later.

Dave Edmunds - Tracks on Wax 4
Edmunds' first LP was called "Rockpile", but this is the first "Rockpile" album. Add it to the others (Repeat When Necessary and Twangin' under Edmunds, Rockpile, and Labor of Lust) and you've got a whole lot of great music to enjoy.
Edmunds (guitar & various) is joined by the rest of Rockpile: Nick Lowe (bass), Billy Bremner (guitar), and Terry Williams (drums). Gerry Hogan (pedal steel) and Pete Kelly (piano) chip in.

Rockpile - Seconds of Pleasure
Not my original copy, but the new Yep Roc release, cut by Kevin Gray.
Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds and Rockpile were absolutely tearing it up in the late 70s and early 80s, with Edmunds’ 3 solos, Nick Lowe’s two (so good), this Rockpile LP, Carlene Carter, etc.
Every one is terrific…this is the only one released as Rockpile. Snag the new cut if you can - it’s great.

Dave Edmunds - Repeat When Necessary
As you may recall, Rockpile put out a bunch of records during their brief lifespan mostly not under the Rockpile name. Here's one of Edmunds' two.
This starts out with the one-two punch of Girls Talk (Elvis Costello) and Crawling from the Wreckage (Graham Parker) - Edmunds wasn't much of a songwriter, but he was an great interpreter & player.

Here's a more 'robust' version from Dave Edmunds and Rockpile:
