    What's the last gig that you went to?

    The last actual gig that I went to was Martin Turner's Wishbone Ash at the 100 Club in Oxford Street in central London in October 2017. Yeah it was a good gig although obviously only Martin Turner was in the original Wishbone Ash line up on stage that evening from inception of the band in 1970...

    I actually still play this AC/DC album occasionally although the running time is on the short side at around 35 minutes but it's an ok listen all the same.

    Totally agree. As previously mentioned I have around 20-25 Mountain/Leslie West solo/West, Bruce & Laing cd/albums and it's all great rock music to listen to!. I first picked up on Mountain and Leslie West around 1985 when I bought a second-hand vinyl copy of Mountain Climbing released in 1970...

    Twenty best 'live' albums (official only - no boots)

    I nearly forgot to included Rainbow On Stage from 1976-77 which is unforgiveable on my part because I use to play this double-vinyl album ALL THE TIME back in the late 1970s and into the 1980s. About 10 years ago I also bought the double-cd 'deluxe cd version' of this album on Polydor records...

    Twenty best 'live' albums (official only - no boots)

    It was 18 or Eighteen that 'Johnny Rotten' sang although if it was anything like Johnny's rendition of Johnny B. Goode where he only knew a few lines of the song we can only guess?.

    My all time favourite American heavy rock band from the 1970s and I also like the 1985 album that Leslie & Corky put out. I like MOUNTAIN and Leslie West so much that I have around 25+ Mountain and Leslie West solo cd albums plus I bought a Les Paul Junior electric guitar that Leslie use to...

    Paul McCartney (Official Thread)

    I liked WINGS because they had some good albums and released some good singles that charted in the UK during the mid-1970s and were a 'proper rock band' fronted by Paul and Linda McCartney and including Denny Laine and Jimmy McCulloch on guitars and touring the USA in the mid-1970s and playing...

    Machine Head probably is (or was) their BEST recorded studio album followed closely by Burn although a lot of fan's rate In Rock as well. According to Ritchie Blackmore hardly any outtakes exist from the Machine Head sessions and all what was recorded ended up on the album except When A Blind...

    Paul McCartney (Official Thread)

    I bought that double-live cd WINGS LIVE OVER AMERICA about 6-7 weeks ago and it's not a bad album to listen to. Wings were quite a big deal back in the 1973-75 period in the UK and had a number of hit singles in the British singles charts I recall. Wasn't McCartney 'busted' on drugs charges in...

    Diamond Head (Official Thread)

    I read something once maybe over 10 years ago by one of the guy's in Diamond Head the guitarist I forget his name saying that when Lars was hanging out with the band in England back in 1980 he never sat in on the drums and had 'a blow' with the rest of the guy's and therefore he didn't know that...

    Diamond Head (Official Thread)

    DIAMOND HEAD?. Were dumped in with the NWOBHM bands in the UK at the tail end of the movement back in 1982 but I never liked them all that 'Am I Evil' and 'Lightning To The Nations' stuff not because of the guy's in the band or even their albums but because Lars Ulrich likes them!?!?. ;)

    TRIUMPH TO HEAVY?. I bought a 'King Biscuit Flower Hour' radio recording of them performing live at a gig somewhere in the USA back in 1980/81 (I bought this cd back in the mid 1990s) and thought they sounded ok but not particularly 'heavy' but Martin Popoff the rock guy who published a book...

    Favourite trio bands

    Robin Trower mainly his 1970s and early 1980s albums (Twice Removed From Yesterday 1972 through to Back It Up 1983). Power trio's were actually great to listen to (the musicianship was usually a few notches higher than other pop/rock bands from the same era) and I still enjoy listening to them...

    Always liked to have bought the above album as originally released with only 6 tracks on vinyl on Poyldor records although I am not sure if the original 6 tracks were ever released on a cd back in the 1980(?) before the full set was released on the cd as shown above during the late 1990s anyway...

    I don't know what it is about Little Feat but I've tried on a number of occasions to 'get into this band' down the years and even have a number of there albums in my cd collection but I still can't get into them?. Some of their songs off Dixie Chicken and Sailing Shoes and Feats Don't Fail Me...

    Probably politically incorrect in 2022 but personally I have always preferred the UK 'nak*d women' album cover. I did originally buy this album in a double-gatefold sleeve the UK version on Polydor records back in 1981 although a number of original Track records that the album was originally...

    What Music DVD Are You Watching

    I watched LED ZEPPELIN live DVD at the Royal Albert Hall in London back in January of 1970 yesterday evening (I had seen it all the way through once before about 15 or 20 years ago) and the whole concert looks better than I remember watching it originally. I was never a big fan of the band being...

    Rolling Stone vs. Too Rolling Stoned

    Robin Trower. The opening live track Too Rolling Stone from the Robin Trower live album from 1975 when I first heard that track and album in 1982 I thought "Wow!. That sounds like HENDRIX??."

    I see that what looks like the complete live recordings that made up this album have been released recently because I've seen a £100 (over $100) for the Waiting On Columbus box-set in a record shop in central London.

    BBC Radio 1 'In Concert' Archive, 1971-1979

    I forgot to mention in the above post of mine The Who as well who had been around since 1964 but 'musically came of age' during the years 1968-71 with the albums Tommy 1968, the live album Live At Leeds 1970 and Who's Next 1971 and playing Tommy live on the road during 1969-1971 prior to those...

    BBC Radio 1 'In Concert' Archive, 1971-1979

    Regarding John Peel's comment I Totally agree 70sProgFan and I was a bit disappointed when he said the rock music from that era (the early 1970s) was of little value and wasn't worth listening to so he didn't anymore which was bit of a shocker to hear him say that!. I can't remember in what DVD...
