THE BAND "music from big pink" cd,1968

have only this one and their self titled set which i do not like, but this one is a lot better IMO...
this has a real,what they term 'americana' feel to it, three songs on here either written by Dylan or cowritten with him.
only on eon here that i do not like whereas the other album i own has at least half the album in that catagory...
struggling to decide which track i love most here out of the classic "the weight" or "tears of rage, guess i should go with the latter so that someone may hear a song they do not know as we all know the weight...

Jerome Wrote:Quite liking this - thx for the tip. And when last did you hear someone include a mellotron on their track!

SteveO Wrote:LOL...I am currently listening to the entire album Jerome...thanks to Evil!!!!...the album is ladened with ELP mellotrons, CSN and Simon Garfunkel harmonies, nice jazz fusion and orchestra with Jethro Tull flutes, great guitar riffs and brilliant vocals from the INCREDIBLE STEVEN WILSON!!!!! one of my definite favorites for 2013...and there haven't been many so far...also would include Birds of Tokyo! I'll give a review soon...I thought of you when I first heard the mellotrons and orchestra...Alan Parsons is the engineer on this album so you can definitely hear his influence and also there are murmurings of ELP and YES and REM...what a great album!!!!!!Lots of progressive sounds here with jazz fusion and rock!!!!..and a wicked funky bass!

Back to the new stack for this $5 purchase from the bargain bin. How can you pass up a
Fleetwood Mac studio album that you don't have for $5? Not at their best but a decent enough
album. Two love tracks out of it with Little Lies leading the way. It is the groups 14th studio
album and the last with the lineup we all know, as Lindsey Buckingham left the group shortly
after this was released. This album began as a Buckingham solo project then morphed into an FM
album. Did not know that this album became the groups second best selling, after Rumours. Four
singles were released of which Little Lies peaked the highest here, at #4. The album reached #7
here and #1 in the UK.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
