The Three Sounds • Live at the Lighthouse

 


by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
 Shortly after the Vibrations sessions, the Three Sounds had their first major personnel shakeup when William Dowdy left the group. Donald Bailey replaced the drummer, and the group played a number of live dates over the course of 1967. During that summer, their concerts at the famed Los Angeles venue the Lighthouse were recorded and released as Live at the Lighthouse. The selection of nine Three Sounds staples gives the group a chance to stretch out and prove that they could survive without Dowdy. Not only do they prove that they can carry on without him, they flourish. The music on Live at the Lighthouse is hotter than some of their studio recordings, pulsating with energy and good feelings, demonstrating that they had worked out any of the problems that hampered Vibrations. It's their finest set since Black Orchid.

 Poco después de las sesiones de Vibrations, los Three Sounds tuvieron su primera gran reorganización de personal cuando William Dowdy abandonó el grupo. Donald Bailey sustituyó al batería y el grupo tocó varias veces en directo a lo largo de 1967. Durante ese verano, sus conciertos en el famoso local de Los Ángeles Lighthouse se grabaron y publicaron como Live at the Lighthouse. La selección de nueve temas básicos de Three Sounds da al grupo la oportunidad de estirarse y demostrar que pueden sobrevivir sin Dowdy. No sólo demuestran que pueden seguir sin él, sino que florecen. La música de Live at the Lighthouse es más ardiente que algunas de sus grabaciones de estudio, palpitante de energía y buenos sentimientos, demostrando que han resuelto todos los problemas que obstaculizaron Vibrations. Es su mejor álbum desde Black Orchid.
