BEE GEES "the very best of" cd, 1990
from the box etc...
twenty track compilation of their 60s-70s hits.
this set really doesn't fill the barrel halfway IMO.
should have been a double disk but that's okay
album still shows how classy these guys have been for their entire career.
not a dud track on here.
picking a favourite to post leaves nineteen others that also deserved it!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

I’m guessing this would be classified as soft rock, so here it is.
I’d forgotten all about this number until a friend who was at the concert posted me the link. This man, whom I always thought looked more than a bit oddly pixie-ish has still after all these years got the voice. The look on his face when he realises his audience hasn’t forgotten a note is priceless.

Here’s one I can’t place in either jazz or blues so here will do. Sadly the backing vocalists and the string section appear to be performing in different keys at times.
Lisa as usual is note perfect.

HARRY CHAPIN "greatest stories live" cd, 1975
good, solid live set from one of the greatest storytellers in popular music.
nothing wrong with this one at all
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

ROD STEWART "thanks for the memory: The Great American Songbook IV" cd, 2005
fourth in a series of five albums
six featured artists on here.
its getting a bit overkill now, three albums would have been enough but when they keep on
selling in the millions giving you gold and platinum sales you aint going to change the formula
of success are you?!
three or four im not keen on here, the rest are still okay
I LIKE THIS ALBUM (just passes)
I don't have a standout track from this album but hey Elton and Rod together has to be the one!

Way back when hippies ruled either the drugs were better or the lack of too easy digital manipulation somehow forced music to be more ‘real’.

This brings back memories of being driven in a very sexy Mustang from San Francisco to Mexico by a very sexy Canadian gent with a big red beard.
(I’ve got a real thing for big red beards)

Always like their live act which I’ve seen twice, once at a zoo in Toledo ( if my stoned memory is working) and in a park in Austin Texas.
Both times off my face on substances I'm now too old to consume.

gorgeous vocals as usual.

sold around five million copies worldwide.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

STING "the dream of the blue turtles" vinyl,cd 1985
his first solo outing.
lots of jazz and blues influences on here which is why I put it in this thread.
some rock, pop, soul also.
the dude made three world class albums in a row (Syncronicity, this one and Nothing Like The Sun)
which hold their own against any albums of the rock era you care to put up against them.
pure class from the get-go.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
could have picked just about anything off this one but on this occasion
i choose a song that wasnt a huge hit anywhere except the US-of-A.
