What Are You Listening To? - Music Head - 08-12-2011 Music Head Wrote:don't recall hearing itwatched a live clip from Carson show looked like Cyndi Lauper. lol a very good performance you're just full of it, recommendations I mean. What Are You Listening To? - SteveO - 08-12-2011 Definitely Music Head....I like this album also !!!!! Music Head Wrote:from my library (vinyl) What Are You Listening To? - SteveO - 08-12-2011 Spurred on by my adventure with the Grateful Dead, I dug this one out of my vinyl vault.... DEJA VU - Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (1970) ....brilliant album !!!!! from start to finish...ALLMUSIC rates it 5 out of 5 ![]() What Are You Listening To? - Jerome - 08-12-2011 Stumbled upon an old Yes album today that I have not heard for years. Yesterdays. Was surprised by how 'fresh' it sounded. Volume was upped accordingly. What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 09-12-2011 SteveO Wrote:Spurred on by my adventure with the Grateful Dead, I dug this one out of my vinyl vault.... pretty sure i gave this 2.8 in the NY guide, one of the greatest albums ever made, up there with Stevie's "innervisions", Marvin's "whats going on" and NY'd "tonights the night" IMO! What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 09-12-2011 ![]() AC/DC "live" cd,1992. one of Dani's cd's,she has quite a few Acca-Dacca albums, i only have three from memory for some reason? recorded on their 1991 Razor's Edge World Tour. unlike MH, i actually enjoy listening to live albums,they tend to give a sense of perspective for me as to how good or not so good a band are without all the studio "spit and polish". it was obvious to me that this one was going to be good to great as AC/Dc always were a great live pub rock band...they just changed to performing at pubs that held 30,000 people instead of a few hundred. very profficient musicians that can do what they do in the studio on the stage also IMO. however....and heres the negative part.....Brian johnson's vocals after only a decade in the spotlight seem to lack the real punch of those on the studio albums,but they are reasonable anyway. the other downside to this album...and the most important one for me is that it is obvious this is not a single recording from one solitary gig as there are fadeouts in the applause at the end of each track, which means to me that they sat down and listened to several shows and put on the best performance of each track...to me that is not a true live recording! that said, this is still a reasonable sounding career spanning double set of discs... allmusic rate this 3/5 or 1.8 on the Music Head Rating System..and on this occasion i agree with allmusic's score its not an album i would neccessarily purchase, and thankfully i dont need to now anyway...think i'll stick to me "live" dvd as i love watching Angus' stage antics whilst he is playing guitar! What Are You Listening To? - SteveO - 09-12-2011 JEFF BECK and the BIG TOWN PLAYBOYS - Crazy Legs....1993 Just got this in the mail from a good friend of mine in Alberta. It immediately went to the CD player ! The volume is turned up and this album is incredible !!!! A tribute album to Gene Vincent (one of John Lennon's idols). This album ROCKs....good old fashion to the point Rock N' Roll/Rockabilly and uptempo all throughout. I love this album ..and as a bonus so does my wife !!!...lol . Jeff Beck played here a couple of months ago and from all accounts he didn't disappoint ! Great axe playing from Jeff and very good r n' r vocals from Mike Sanchez, British blues rock belter. Great rock sax playing included. A very good rock quintet and an excellent old style rock album reminiscent of the 50s' Sun Record releases ! What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 10-12-2011 ![]() HUMBLE PIE "natural born bugie-the immediate anthology" cd,2000. got this one some time ago as i didnt have any Humble Pie...even asked Tiggi his opinion of these guys but said his knowledge was not as good as it should be so he couldnt offer advice... anyway, Humble Pie were a so-called late sixties supergroup made up of Small Faces ex-vocalsit Steve Marriott and The Herd's Peter Frampton. as with most supergroups, the hype of the members far outweighed the chart success of the acts(cream are a classic example). this is a double cd set containing 34 tracks from both Humble Pie studio albums from 1969, plus outtakes,unreleased and live tracks.... although only gaining 'cult' status in the UK and US, Humble Pie did pave the way for fellow UK blues rockers Led Zepplin to crack the US market, in the early 1970s, they were pretty much 'equals' in terms of audiences on US/UK tours. interestingly enough, Steve Marriott turned down Jimmy Page's offer to front Led Zepplin in favour of Humble Pie,thus Plant got the Zep gig! this album does contain a few good solos from guitarist Frampton, but the overall sound is pretty much in line with Marriott's vision for what he wanted the Small Faces to be,unfortunately for him they didnt have the same vision and Marriott departed ways with them, they then became The Faces with Rod Stewart on vocal duties. not much outstanding on here, but at the same time nothing so bad it would warrant only "*"...so this set comes out at a flatlined "2.0" links from the album for a taster of what Humble Pie were all about: natural born bugie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAZlf_9ObLg live alabama '69 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8SbKAC_6AY live the sad bag of shaky jake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeKW4oFg-KA live growing closer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYn4f0YL0S4 audio desperation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUnOgg-A3MU live audio as safe as yesterday is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shmtTJJ2muU audio buttermilk boy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sE41PzpKFYo live audio every mothers son http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLehj2qzLnQ audio What Are You Listening To? - Music Head - 10-12-2011 from my library (cd) ![]() A gift from a mate. Trouble getting into this one. Nearest sound I can come up with is Hall & Oates. Never was a big fan of theirs but their hits did grow on me. Not sure if this ever would. An even split between likes and don't likes. This is his first solo album. The leadoff track here of Tucker's Daughter was a #1 hit single. Pretty good song, but wondering what it feels like to have your knee bones slapped to the ground. Sounds painful. Ian is best known as a member of the Australian group Cold Chisel who were a huge success there. The wave never made it to the states. This album was also a #1 and got Ian the ARIA best male artist and album of the year awards along with song of the year for Tucker's Daughter. The guy has certainly made a name for himself down under along with Cold Chisel. I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - Mr. Rain Best Track - Tucker's Daughter Hang me for a sucker On the plains out of Narrabri Swingin' a hoe in a CAL-cotton row Sweatin' on the dangers to me Bossman's Mr. Tucker He's a man I don't care to defy And his only child wicked and wild is seeking my company She wanna build me up tear me down Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughter's a memory Hot sun is a killer She'll be waitin' at the end of my line Taking the shade with a cool lemonade sayin' Boy I wanna talka to you Bossmans' only daughter She ain't his and she'll never be mine Never be down on a dollar or two Or told what she's gonna do She wanna build me up tear me down Slap my knee bones to the ground Me and mine are gonna be around When Tuckers' daughters a memory Build me up tear me down I won't kneel 'til the trumpet sounds And Tuckers' daughter's a memory People born with all they need They don't understand Everything you want don't come from holding out your hand Tuckers' daughter thinks she sees A slave at her command I know you need some time yet baby But when the time is right Babe I just ain't your man 1) Tucker's Daughter ** video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKEIQQs6qO8 2) Telephone Booth ** live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRmAgEbRwRQ 3) Out Of The Fire * video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1EZwvDhyz0 4) Mr. Rain * live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAXnKDL-dYI 5) Matchbook * live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHdddrGA_KI 6) Such A Beautiful Thing ** live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S15tWkXwbE 7) I've Got You * audio - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1XVj1WJbHs 8) Pretty Face ** live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3zC6pMpiMI 9) Tangletown ** live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xXnmwSw0qg 10) I'll Remember You * live - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW5166TfAeQ 3's - 0 2's - 5 1's - 5 Grade - 1.5 so many albums, so little time What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 10-12-2011 sorry you didnt like it MH...personally i dont like Ian Moss as a solo artist prefer him as a member of Cold Chisel, but i do love Tucker's Daughter and Telephone Line from that album, Moss is a well respected guitarist/writer in this part of the world,even the Young brothers from AC/DC respect him.... regardless of all that, at least you got to hear another artist you otherwise wouldnt have and at least thats only two albums i picked that you havent liked out of about 15 i guess??!! dont want to make you think you have got to like the Cold Chisel album you now have, but i think you'll like that one...???maybe????? |
