murrays 0 #27 November 19, 2004 Quote2) Old Rod Stewart, back when he did his own songs instead of covering everyone else's Check out some of Rod's work with Jeff Beck Group on Truth and Beck-Ola, which were Rod's introduction to North America. Jeff Beck is one of my favourite guitarists. His first three solo albums were all great: The Rod Stewart Album, Gasoline Alley and Every Picture Tells a Story Shortly thereafter, he went disco and Hollywood (Do Ya Think I'm Sexy) and became a crooner -- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nbblood 0 #30 November 19, 2004 Well, I didn't just "discover" them, but I just got another chance to see Van Halen live. Never thought I'd get a chance to see them again. Dug out all the old Van Halen music and got the Best of Both Worlds CDs. They're still one of my favorites and Eddy has still got it.

JankyBob 0 #40 November 19, 2004 Minutemen - "Double Nickels on the Dime" A great, great album from one of the most underrated bands of all time. I turned a few people onto it in the past couple of months and its hard to believe its 15 years old. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 1,646 #41 November 19, 2004 QuoteQuoteI got to see Cream perform live! And you might be able to again. Yes, but in 1967 it was at my college end-of-year ball with all of 300 people in attendance. I don't think a mega concert in the Albert Hall will be quite so, well, intimate somehow....

Shotgun 1 #48 May 27, 2005 QuoteToo Fast For Love has some original tracks that were put on the EP that was released under Leathur records. Toast of the Town was one of them which happens to be one of my favorite songs. Ok, after you mentioned this (however long ago???) I finally got the "Too Fast For Love" CD today, which includes several unreleased tunes... including "Toast of the Town" - I'm really liking that song too. There is also a video included of "Live Wire" and I can't say that I mind watching the boys in their cute little leather outfits. Nice CD... I love Motley Crue's first two albums, and I'm loving the extra tracks on the CDs.

By 1970 I'd also seen the Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead. The Dead were still in their twenties, played in a small college basketball gym and dosed the audience with jugs of electric apple cider. Then they played 'til 3:30 in the morning. I was just 15 and was so totally grounded for the rest of the year (Thanksgiving 'til Xmas). Also saw Cab Calloway, just months before he died. He was recovering from a broken hip and had to stay seated on a barstool while he led his band. But he was still swingin' and dancin' on that barstool and the whole theater was roaring the choruses of "Minnie the Moocher". Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !
