    Procol Harum (Official Thread)

    As far as Procol Harum and my self are concerned I remember A Whiter Shade of Pale being played on the radio over here in England back in the 'summer of love' in 1967 but when it comes to the band my interest is in Robin Trower's connection especially with the album Broken Barricades 1971 where...

    Robert Plant solo (Official Thread)

    I read something that Robert said several years ago when apparently his best solo record possibly sales wise and the record people and fans liked the best was with The Honeydrippers album of 1950s style rock & roll and he said something like 'I don't want that record to be remembered as my best...

    Chicago Founding Member Walter Parazaider Dead at 81

    Over this side of the water in rain swept England I remember Does Anyone Know What Time it is? and 25 to 6 to 4 being played on BBC Radio One around 1970-71 with those two singles receiving a lot of airplay at the time back then also I like the first & second albums and even the 'heavy brass'...

    Review Deep Purple- Shades of Deep Purple (1968) ** 1/2

    I must admit that I prefer Fireball over In Rock which is possibly enough to receive death threats from some dudes (joking guys I hope?) and I personally like all the tracks on Fireball although Anyone's Daughter isn't a particular track that I like much but tracks like Fireball, No No No &...

    Review Deep Purple- Shades of Deep Purple (1968) ** 1/2

    I like the second Warhorse album especially the title track Red Sea which sounds very Deep Purple circa 1970 and according to Nick Simper ex Deep Purple and bass player in the Mk.1 version he claims Ritchie Blackmore rang him up and said that he liked the track Red Sea!.

    Review Deep Purple- Shades of Deep Purple (1968) ** 1/2

    True to a certain extent but the first three DP albums have their own 'likes' about them personally speaking. On the last Mk.1 DP album released in late 1969 and confusingly titled Deep Purple (the bands third album) one on the tracks which didn't appear on the album but was released as a single...

    Unreleased Blues Song - Frank Marino - Live at the Agora Theatre

    I read a couple of decades or more ago that Frank was in a hospital bed and was seriously in a bad way but the spirit of Jimi Hendrix visited him and gave him the power to play electric guitar the same way as Jimi even though Frank had never picked up an electric guitar before??. When it comes...

    Graham Parker (official thread)

    Not a band that I would normally bother listening to (and I never do) and I only know of them through a slight connection with Thin Lizzy back around 1977-78 especially when 'Lizzy' played Dancing in the Moonlight and Philo would announce from the stage after the 'Saxophone break' "From the...

    Van Der Graaf Generator (Official Thread)

    They had their own audience and I have a 'best of' cd on Virgin records of the band but I got that cd mainly cos it has Theme One on it that I recall use to open BBC Radio One at the dawn of the day at 5:30 am back in 1972 when I was already up and going out to work just after 5:30 am so that...

    Spirit (Official Thread)

    The 1980s Randy California albums I like include Euro/American from 1982, Shattered Dreams from 1987 & Restless from 1990 and another album that I like is Tent of Miracles from 1990/91 which is one of those albums where every song follows on nicely with the next song and I especially like the...

    XTC Official Thread.

    I didn't realize XTC had a large entry in Wikipedia cos the only song that I knew was Making Plans For Nigel which was a 'hit' for them here in the UK back in 1979 and obviously received a lot radio air play back then.

    Spirit (Official Thread)

    When it comes to Randy California & Spirit the earlier albums don't do much for me although yeah Dr. Sardonicus is ok but I prefer Randy California's Kapt. Kopter and the Fabulous Twirly Birds album from 1972 and Randy's albums from the 1980s & 1990s

    Dave Mason dead at 79

    Yeah I heard about Dave passing on the radio and knew he was a founding member of the British rock band TRAFFIC along with Stevie Winwood, Chis Woods & Jim Capaldi back around 1967/68 and also Dave was a early member of Derek & the Dominos along side Eric Clapton anyway I picked on his debut...
