Review AC/DC - For Those About To Rock (We Salute You) (1981)
The way I burn cds, yes, there are two "sides". For years I was content listening to cds "as is", but a few years ago I began thinking about how much better I might enjoy listening to a cd if it had a distinct Side 1 and a Side 2 -- just like the albums did that I enjoyed listening to back in...- Dave78

Review AC/DC - For Those About To Rock (We Salute You) (1981)
I burned a cd of this album after I moved a few of the songs around a little bit, and it made big difference to me. Naturally Side 1 is stacked with the best tracks, but the tracks on Side 2 are still pretty good and have a good flow overall. Side 1 For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)...- Dave78

1976: Nobody's Fault or It's Nobody's Fault but Mine?
"Nobody's Fault". It's dark, brooding and swarthy. What's not to love?- Dave78

Power Trio
The Top 3 Power Trio bands are: Cream Jimi Hendrix Robin Trower The operative word being "power". I think of the others (ZZ Top, ELP, RUSH and The Police, etc) merely as 3-piece "rock" bands.- Dave78

Masterpiece 80's Studio Albums
I think most of these are general consensus masterpiece albums. Though a few of them might not be, I still think they are in terms of them being the band's signature 80's album in their catalogue (in addition to just being a great album overall). Some of these albums have lost their luster with...- Dave78

Songs You Can't Stand
I think Captain & Tenille is as good a place to start as any. :D Even the top groups have certain songs that some people can't stand (e.g. AC/DC's "Big Balls", Led Zep's "Boogie With Stu" and Van Halen's "Ice Cream Man"), but for the most part I can't stand a lot of the A.M. radio "hits" from...- Dave78

Van Halen - Fair Warning (Rate This Album)
For the most part, I still feel the same way about Fair Warning now as I did way back in 1981: Three outstanding rockers ("Mean Streets", "Hear About It Later" and "So This Is Love"), three rocking album tracks ("Dirty Movies", "Sinner's Swing" and "Unchained"), one hodge-podge album track that...- Dave78

Your top 10 Black Sabbath songs?
Black Sabbath had so many great album tracks in the 70's that it seems impossible to leave any of them out of my Top Ten list. But what I went with instead was one standout track from 9 of their first 10 albums (I never got into their Paranoid album), plus one stellar track from the 80's. NIB...- Dave78

Van Halen (Official Thread)
I agree, it is rare for at least some parts of a VH demo not to have been used on a song years later. Even if it's only one small part of the song like at the 1:16 mark here on "Act Like It Hurts" (which sounds like the cowbell, drums and guitar part on "Drop Dead Legs" just before the long...- Dave78

I only like about half of the material on I, II, III, IV and Houses. Physical Graffiti and Presence are their cream of the crop albums, imo.- Dave78

Van Halen (Official Thread)
Here is VH's unreleased demo "Light In The Sky". Though the song title is similar to "Light Up The Sky", they are two completely different songs. I think the slower tempo on this track is a nice change of pace, and allows you to really hear all of Eddie's nuisances throughout without being...- Dave78
