Same here recgord27 because amongst my vast cd collection of cds which mainly consists of North American and British heavy rock bands from the 1969-1975 era and is what I call "Rocks Golden Years" when all the rock bands that I like on either side of the Atlantic formed and established...
Nice one 70sProgFan and the illustrious John Peel once said on one of my rock DVDs that (rock) music from that era (the early 1970s) was of little value and not worth listening to so he doesn't?. I believe Mr. Peel preferred listening to the Undertones and Teenage Kicks???.
Never seen that LP before and I assume it's a 'compilation record' and released on a major record label as well with Polydor records releasing Jimi's albums after Track records originally released his three studio albums. Chas Chandler Jimi's first manager had connections with Polydor records...
To be honest I never really listened to the band although I was aware of who Elkie Brooks was and she became quite a big name in the UK during the 1970s and 1980s anyway whenever the band name Vinegar Joe was mentioned down the years I always think back to that time in 1972 when I met that...
The Who: Who's Next
The Rolling Stones: Sticky Fingers
Jimi Hendrix: Cry of Love (posthumously released after Jimi's death in 1970)
There's probably another 20+ albums from 1971 that were classics but the three above I like a lot.
I bought a vastly expanded IRISH TOUR '74 recordings from Polydor records about 5 years ago from the former HMV shop in the west end of central London that has about 6 cds one of which I think is a DVD of the Irish Tour 1974 film that came out on it's own as a DVD about 10-12 years ago with all...
About 50 years ago back around 1971 or 1972 when I was teenager I was a bit friendly for a few weeks with a guy who was busking with an acoustic guitar on the London underground in central London either at Oxford Circus or Leicester Square tube stations (subway stations in the USA) I can't...
I just bought a MONTROSE box-set entitled MONTROSE 1973-1976 in London which features the albums MONTROSE, PAPER MONEY, WARNER Bros PRESENTS & JUMP ON IT along with those two KSAN radio shows from 1973 & 1974 that feature the band playing live in the studio which I already have in my cd...
I presume you are aware that both the original bass and drum parts were re-recorded later during the 2000s when both the remastered albums were released due to disrespectful comments made about Ozzy when he was in the television series in The Osbourne's back in the late 1990s/early 2000s by Bob...
That coloured vinyl record looks interesting plus I have never seen that April Wine record before?. I have a 8 cd box set of their albums from the late 1970s into the 1980s.
A great listen from start to finish this Hamburger Concerto album from 1974 which is a mixture of 1970s progressive rock mixed with European classical music and mite sound 'suspect' but is 'guitar heavy' for a lot of it. I have a Focus cd box-set which has around a dozen albums starting from In...
Currently I have been watching 'the Stones' at Altamont in early December 1969 and the events leading up to the staging of this notorious concert although the film GIMME SHELTER doesn't go into the full details of the background to this gig but the film footage is interesting and still worth...
HAWKWIND the 1970s 'hippy dropouts' from the Notting Hill/Ladbroke Grove housing squats of west London circa 1969-72 are ok but their 70s brand of 'space rock' can get a bit samey after listening to 20 plus albums but that's ok if your 'into' the band.
NO they shouldn't carry on and in fact I would go a lot further and say they should have 'packed it in' a long time ago probably when Bill Wyman left back in 1993 but both Mick and Keith I believe love performing live.
Personally the only 'Stones' stuff that I listen to these days is the Decca...
A 'underrated' Purple album (or it was back in the late 1970s) but actually it is possibly one of the bands better albums and stands up well some 47 years later in 2022 although it doesn't feature Ritchie on guitar but Tommy Bolin but in my humble opinion it stands along side along both Machine...
I haven't heard this 'Heep' album for maybe 25+ years but I remember it had a nice 'heavy riff' number on it but I can't remember the name of the track?.
A near impossible choice to make of two seminal rock albums both from 1980.
Possibly MOTORHEAD's ACE of SPADES just has the edge but JUDAS PRIEST'S BRITISH STEEL IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE A HEAVY METAL CLASSIC ALBUM!!.
I have all the LOVE stuff released on cds (one of my personal favourite rock bands of all time) but opposite to what the majority of people would say that the FOREVER CHANGES album from 1967 is the bands best album and in some ways it is if you like 1960s phycadelic pop my favourite era of LOVE...
With regards to Steely Dan personally I only like the first two maybe three albums from 1973-74 after which later on they tended to go off into jazz/rock/jazz territory so they lost me although the first two albums were pretty good 'rock' albums and with regards to the Gaucho album in particular...
