Like we need another playlist... what the heck. Maybe you'll dig up an old forgotten favorite for a spin.

Led Zepplin - Houses of the Holy, 1973

I bought this album in junior high. So it's been 30 years or so. That original copy has been misplaced. So I picked up another one today.

Oh oh oh oh oh oh, You don't have to go oh oh oh oh oh...

CCR - Willie and the Poor Boys, 1969

I got this one in the 6th grade. :D

The Band - Rock Of Ages...... Rag Mama Rag - 1972

Barclay James Harvest - Eyes of the Universe 1979

Great idea for a thread! It made me do some digging.

Jimmy Hall "Touch You"

Samantha Sang - Emotion
Bo Donaldson and The Heywoods - Special Someone (a xmas gift from one of my dad's friends in 1972)...LOL

This one was starting to grow some Moss :nono:

Jeff Beck - Blow by blow -1975

Samantha Sang - Emotion
Bo Donaldson and The Heywoods - Special Someone (a xmas gift from one of my dad's friends in 1972)...LOL

Samantha Sang... now there is one artist I haven't heard in ages!

Roberta Flack - Killing Me Softly

Herman's Hermits - XX (their greatest hits)

ok... maybe somethings should be left buried.

Rod Stewart - Atlantic Crossing

The first time I heard this was in a bar in Okinawa, Japan, while still in highschool. :D My best friend and I were the only ones in there late one night after wrestling practise. He turned me onto Rod Stewart and Slow Gin Fizzes. It was a really cool bar, just outside Gate 2 off Kadena Air Force base. Every inch (walls, chairs, tables, ceiling) was covered with signatures and graffiti from service men from all over the states. You could make requests or listen privately with a dozen or so headphones hanging down from the ceiling.

Some old albums kinda makes you run at the mouth. :)

Ian Hunter-You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic
Had some good times listening to this when it first came out!

Dickey Betts- "Highway Call". :smoke:

Madonna - True Blue

I have the CD somewhere, bought the vinyl recently. Forgotten that it had a number of good "pop" hits on it. I like her earlier stuff before she went... wherever she went.

I got out my old Deep Purple Machine Head recently. I haven't heard it in ages and loved it... Growing up it was one of my favorite albums... Probably haven't played it in 5 years or more....

BeeGees greatest hits vol.1.

NO, this is not the disco era stuff. Their work prior to disco was great late 60's, early 70's pop with a melancholy bent. 'I just dug this out after a couple of months, and I always love it. Makes me want to break out the bourbon, though..getting me kind of sad here in the 'hood on a Sunday morning.

LOL! I spun that yesterday for the first time, well in at least 20 years! I bought the CD yesterday. Most coincidental.:yes:

Early Bee Gees is quite different from the disco stuff. I'll have to look for it.

The album is one of my favorite Led Zeps, can't believe I went that long.

LOL...I bought this album right here in San Diego at the Navy Exchange...for $4.25....I loved this album...but was in deep trouble with my siblings as they wanted me to buy a Ohio Players album, I think it was "Honey" but I opted for this instead...The "Honey" album came the following Saturday...as my folks used to give me $5 every Saturday for an album or $2 for 2 45's depending on which parent...my dad was the one who gave the $5 for the albums....though my Mom was really a "singles" person she gave me money sometimes for an album...but not too often...LOL

Actually I'm on my second copy from the Kadena BX. I let my high school girl friend borrow the first one. I went to her house one day and I was horrified to see it on her el crapo turntable with quite a bit of change balanced on the headshell. We broke up sometime later and I let her have it along with Rod Stewart's - A Night on the Town. But that's another story. :D

Three Dog Night - Golden Bisquits

My very first LP. I need to put more tape on the jacket...

Marshall Tucker Band - Searching For A Rainbow.

Man I haven't listened to 'Southern Rock" in a while. Sometimes you have to put your "go to" albums aside and break out the ones from the past.

Joan Jett Bad Reputation. I always loved that album, but for some reason haven’t spun it in a while. Glad I dusted it off. A great record by the Queen of Rock. :thmbsp:

Zepellin is a staple here, especially Houses and Grafitti.

Nectar ~ Remember the Future

This thread is making me stir it up alittle,I cant believe this recording is 20 years old already :sigh:

I love MTB. "Can't you See" is a classic and rightly so. Quite a bit of their stuff is very well recorded too.

I think I'll go dig up some Wet Willie....

Sluggo...thats one of my favorite albums.

OK, now I'm a huge Depeche mode fan, and I have all of their work. Most of is on vinyl, but i came across a CD of their 'Construction Time Again' bonus work last week, and wow was I taken back a few years! Great stuff, like 'The Great Outdoors', 'Fools', and the acoustic version of 'Love, In Itself'. :thmbsp:

Great thread. Golden Biscuits brings back memories, guilty pleasures. :D Eli's comin'...

Fleetwood Mac - Self Titled
(1975, Reprise) > haven't listened for years on vinyl. used to wear out the tracks on this one.

I agree, MTB sounds really good on vinyl.

Charlie Daniels Band - Fire on the Mountain

I must not have listened to this one that much. It looks brand new.

Richard Cocciante - self-titled, 1976.

Bought this way back when. Don't remember ever playing it more than a couple of times. It's pretty good.

The Who - Who's Next

Had this years ago on cassette when I was a youngster. When cassette became a "dead" format all my tapes went, and its been on the list ever since. Just picked it up on vinyl and man the memories come back. Its amazing how an album can take you back to a time and place

Great american rock & roll debut album from 1972
Jo Jo Gunne :yes:

Funny, that reminds me....

Jo Jo Gunne <> Jay Ferguson <> Joe Walsh

Joe Walsh - "But Seriously, Folks..."

Forgot all about the 'Inner Tube' and 'Boat Weirdos' instrumental on side 2. Nice stuff.

Yes,"Tales from Topographic Oceans".

I can honestly say I probably have NEVER listened to all 4 sides...

Hi Andyman. I've got a beat-up old copy of "tales from the topographic oceans" on vinyl and I was kind of impressed by it when I spun it. I do prefer their later sound, but this record was kind of cool!

Playing tonight: Foreigner - 4, Wall of Voodoo - Call of the West, jan Hammer - Escape from Television. 80s Night.

Al Green-The Belle Album.
I havent played it in over 20 years.One of the great unsung Green albums.

I forgot about that Yes album Dick,Good one!

Dug this out this morning from Pink floyds guitarist,
The first self titled solo recording from 1978
David gilmour :thmbsp:

Going to go ahead and do Side 2 of Yes's "Tales form Topographic Oceans". It's Ok, but I'm not finding it intriguing; which is probably why I've never listened to the whole thing.
The artwork is more captivating than the music so far...

Floyds Wright had a solo album out at about the same time, maybe a little later, entitled Wet Dream. I still have my mc copy.

Anyone here have this one? Ever heard of it?

Yup... I have Wet Dream as well as Gilmour's self-titled. Good stuff.

I recently picked up On An Island which sounds a lot like regular Pink Floyd.

I recently picked up On An Island which sounds a lot like regular Pink Floyd.

It's a relatively obscure album, I don't know why? I did a quick and dirty check, and it seems that there aren't any fresh copies to be had, and used ones start at $60! (I'm talking about Wet Dream) Not to say it's not available, but I checked Amazon, and they usually have most everything.

Gilmours' s/t cd is available, and it's high time I bought it.

BTW, If you like On an Island, you should get the DVD. It has the complete OAI work with some PF, recorded at Albert Hall. Sonics and picture are top shelf. There is also a Blu-Ray disc available. Guests like Bowie and Crosby and Nash, plus tons of extras that won't bore the hell outta ya.

Highly recommended.

Wow... my Wet Dream is in NM condition!

On an Island is good, but I'll have to spin it some more and decide if I really like it.

Thanks!

I know for certain that I have played "Wet Dreams" only twice, since bought new. But, I will never sell it. I am gonna take it off the shelf and try to keep it in its' NM condition.

When I bought it, my TT was a Technics SL 1500 Mk II/Stanton 881 S.

OK, "Tales" Side 3 just finished and now Side 4 is on. The last 5 minutes of 3 had some nice acoustic guitar work, but that aside, once this is over it will probably be a long time before I go down this road again...

Savoy Brown, "Blue Matter" the studio side.
This is some good stuff.

Friday night and I just picked up a nice LP for half a buck...

In A Gadda Da Vida

Bay Bee!!


:lmao: Well, it is Friday :D

Go forth, brave soul.

I'll stick Close to the Edge, over here...

I just found again, my copy of Joe Walsh's - The Smoker you drink, the player you get. Good stuff.

Down from the mountain is live performances played
from the musicians that performed on the soundtrack
"Oh brother where art thou"
Nice way to start my day :yes: almost forgot I had it!

Blow the dust off this one -
John lennon "Plastic Ono band" (1970)

Carol King - Tapestry

I have a CD that titles "Tapestry Revisited", a tribute to Carole King by various artists covering the songs of the original album. Awwh its ok, but when I found a pristine copy of the original it took me back to my youth.

Tommy Tutone's debut. Great record,man this brings back some memories.

There's a girl in the back seat
goin down slowly
searchin for the promised land
doin the rolly polly

I found a box of cassette tapes that also had a couple dozen LPs in it while cleaning the basement last weekend. The box included my Nicolette Larson collection. What a shame she's gone.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/616WAJF3SGL._SS500_.jpg

Montrose!

Crap, you're making me dig.......................

I liked Nicolette Larson, too. Have a couple of her albums.

I was playing with a set of speakers today and cruising the CD collection for something to see how they do at stupid levels. Threw on Green Day's "Dookie" from a few years back and turned the amp up to 11. They do fine. Hadn't listened to that one in ages. Still fun and still makes me turn the volume knob to the right.

Ray

Rory Gallager live, "Taste" and "On The Boards"

Bebu Silvetti - Spring Rain and World Without Words

Haven't heard these two LPs since the late 70s. I recently got them off eBay. They're not in the shape they were advertised so they're going back. Hope I don't have to wait another couple of decades.

Elevator Disco Music at it's best!

Grand Funk Railroad's "We're An American Band" I found a pristine copy the other day at SA. The last time I had it was on 8 track. Still a great album with lots of excellent guitar and synthesizer. It is still on 1 of the 3 TT's and ready to crank on short notice

Really been wanting to spin Rocky Burnette ~ The Son of Rock and Roll, the song I most want hear is Tired of Toein' The Line.

Jethro Tull: This Was (1968) Man I forgot I had this one back in the archives. Pretty good shape too.

Pink Floyd - The Wall

Haven't spun this one in 20+ years.

Pink Floyd - The Wall

Haven't spun this one in 20+ years.

Same for me. I probably haven't played the Wall since 1986, the year I graduated from college.

I might have to put that on for a bit tonight, although I find I don't like much of it anymore. There are some great moments though.

One that I haven't listened to for a long time that I find myself jonesing for today is The Who- Whos Next. I think after the kids are off to bed I'll dig into it.

Traffic - Welcome to the Canteen

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/618WzFaocLL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company - Cheap Thrills. Haven't played it in 20 years. Janis could belt it out.

Stones - Sticky Fingers

Cleaned up my old album from college (with working zipper).

Amazing record.

Played Seatrain's self-titled album the other day. Came out around '70 as I recall. The song "13 Questions" got a lot of airplay.

I kinda out grew that generation of Pink Floyd. But I heard it on the radio this morning in the car and I had to crank it up. It sounds really good on vinyl.

Speaking of Who's Next. Dang it... where did I put it!


Beatles - Rubber Soul

The Best of Grin Featuring Nils Lofgren, 1976

Molly Hatchet - self titled, 1978

I ended up listening to For Squirrels the other night. It had been quite a few years but its even better than I remember it. There's probably a lot of people that have never heard of them but there's a reason for that. Right before the album was released the lead singer, bass player and manager were killed in a car wreck after a show.

Music has away of tripping memories and emotions. It's good that you can keep the memory and the music of Squirrel alive.


Kansas - Point of No Return

Electric Light Orchestra, On The Third Day, just started listening to it once again. Guess it fell off the playlist for many moons and it still sounds so different but enjoyable none the less.

Mott the hoople ~ Mott (1973) :cool:

Nichollete Larson - Radio City

I'm playing Dirk Hamilton tonight. Meet me at the crux and the Thug of love, cd's.

Jackson browne - Late for the sky (1974)

Three albums I have recently pulled out that I haven't listened to in years (and I mean decades) are:

Joan Baez - Diamonds and Rust
Carpenters - Horizon
bought both in 1975

Guy Clark - Better Days
bought in 1983

After listening to these again, I could kick myself for what I was missing. Now, I play these quite frequently.

On the other hand, I've listened to some albums from the same period and wondered why I ever bought them, knowing it will be years before I listen to them again.:D

Soft Cell - Tainted Love/Where Did Our Love Go

Van Morrison - Wavelength

A Flock of Seagulls - Listen

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Rust Never Sleeps

Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow - 1975

American Analog Set - The Fun of Watching Fireworks

Gerry Rafferty - City to City

Dixie Dregs - Night of the Living Dregs

Dixie Dregs - Night of the Living Dregs

Bought that one after seeing them in a small club in Palo Alto, CA in the late 70s. Mind blowing stuff then!

THE ALLMAN BROTHERS - Eat A Peach

The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967)
(Im spinning the 2008 polydor Re-Master I got today!)

Rush-Signals

Lowell George - Thanks I'll eat it here

Hadn't listened to it probably since 1988 or so. What was I thinking?

Dixie Dregs - Night of the Living Dregs

Bought that one after seeing them in a small club in Palo Alto, CA in the late 70s. Mind blowing stuff then!

That's another wonderful recording mastered by Stan Ricker (who, I believe also mastered Floyd's DSOTM).

Some virtuoso playing for sure (decided to find my copy and put it on the turntable). Sounds a little crazy. I mean, just how many notes can they play in a set amount of time? A lot, obviously.

Lowell George - Thanks I'll eat it here

Hadn't listened to it probably since 1988 or so. What was I thinking?

That is a sin, now pull out the rest of that Little Feat and enjoy!

I'm about to lay my MoFi copy of Waiting for Columbus on the table! Mmmmm, mmmmm, good. Dixie Chicken is smokin' on this copy... That cymbal snap near the end of the piano solo...!!!!

This one was starting to grow some Moss :nono:

how could this possibly be in the "Been a while" thread?

All of my Lowell George flavored Little Feat is in regular rotation, and has been since released!

Ok, you got me to thinking. I haven't listened to either of these in a long time (I'll have to fix that).

The first album I ever bought: The Monkees ~ The Monkees

Paul Revere & the Raiders ~ Indian Reservation

how could this possibly be in the "Been a while" thread?

All of my Lowell George flavored Little Feat is in regular rotation, and has been since released!

THE band I never tire of!

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band is back on my IPOD and in heavy rotation.

I had a friend in the 8th or 9th grade (1969 or 70) who introduced me to many 'new to me" bands. I can remember him telling me that if I wanted to heard "really good guitar music" I should get into this record and to stop listening to Grand Funk. At the time I thought he was out of his mind, and about half the time he was, but I do believe he was correct!

CJ Chenier and the Red Hot Louisiana Band ~ I Ain't No Playboy :music:
