    Review Eric Burdon and the Animals- Winds of Change (1967) ** 1/2

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Eric Burdon and the Animals- Winds of Change (1967) ** 1/2 Decided to bring one from the obscure depths of psychedelia. Not sure I ever remember hearing this as a 10 year old, in its entirety, outside the singles. Today's review takes a look among the most hard...

    Is Cream “Sunshine of Your Love” the first Heavy Metal Riff?

    Lot's of candidates that hold the pre-history mantle in bits of pieces, but honestly.... this is where heavy metal really started

    Is Cream “Sunshine of Your Love” the first Heavy Metal Riff?

    In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida was released 14 Jun 1968... Not a great fan of the song, but figured it was in the mix.

    Review Yes- Talk (1994) *****

    I might be somewhat of an outlier on my rating, but the musican in me just loves the songwritting prowess of Babin, and Talk in particular has that "soundtrack" feel that he does so well. So its really more of my love of the symphonic angle, versus what deems what is great in a normal Yes...

    Review Yes- Talk (1994) *****

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Yes- Talk (1994) ***** Yes, is a beloved band by many of us, and are among the greatest stalwarts of prog in both quality of longevity. Finding a great Yes album to review is like shooting fish in barrel. If you ask all of us fans, of the what constituted their...

    Review Honeymoon Suite- The Big Prize (1985) *** 1/2

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Honeymoon Suite- The Big Prize- (1985) *** 1/2 Today's gem has kind of gotten lost in the obscurity of time. This is a band of no-names, both in band, and production. But for a few years these guys made some fine AOR stuff, that was not only solid musically for...

    Misadventures In Music - Thoughts Unfiltered

    Great post... I've made it a point for decades to notice the piped in music at restaurants. There is a lot more science involved in this process than you realize. Mostly, that if you notice a song, think of the year it was made.... Then subtract 18-25 to determine the years of birth of...

    Review Queen- Self Titled (1973) ****

    Classic Rock Album of the Day - Queen- Queen- (1973) **** Another review of an immensely talented group of musicians and songwriters. I don't think I have to tell anyone here, that this band was big, I mean really big. The band in the original lineup had 14 studio albums that were wildly...

    My Ramones Concert Experience- April 11, 1983 at Cardi's..... Like I mentioned someway, somehow The Ramones were going to perform at my favorite bar in the city I lived in. The day of the show, I collected a group of 3 of my good friends to go. One jokingly called me their Tour Guide into the...

    Review AC-DC - Highway to Hell (1979) **** 1/2

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- AC-DC - Highway to Hell (1979) **** 1/2 I'll just say it. Is this the most fun, rocking, and party-worthy band of all time? They are for me. AC/DC is another one of those absolutely great bands who have a perfect read on the pulse of their fans. Are they great...

    Misadventures In Music - Thoughts Unfiltered

    This is a really wild random thought and memory that was such a game changer for me way back.... Back in about 1970, I was listening to KAAY, Beaker Street. The DJ at the time, Clyde Clifford was known to take long breaks and play long, often full side of albums. :cool: One late night he...

    Review Mott the Hoople - Self Titled (1969) ***

    Classic Rock Album of the Day- Mott The Hoople- Self Titled (1969) *** It is funny how music morphs into into branches on a tree as the formula wears. By the late 1960's we were 3 years past Beatlemania, and Psychedelia had already about run its course. 1969 was a pivotal point year where the...
