Album you haven't listened to for a long time & it's due

Post by Hawk »

Name an album you haven't listened to for a long long time, but it is time to listen to now...

EDIT: These are two albums I haven't listened to for about ten years and about two years respectively.

Forgive me for showing my age and the 60's genre but my wife and I sat out on the porch this evening, had a couple drinks and listened to:

The Grassroots and Abby Road. Made for a very pleasant evening.

Anything you haven't listented to for a while ? But think it's about time you do ?

Thanks Joe, because that reminds me I haven't listened to Traffic - John Barleycorn for a long time. Put it on my "due" list...

Looking through my iPod, I think I may spend some time with the Reverend Horton Heat, who I have neglected for quite a while. I'll start with "Smoke 'Em if You got 'Em"

A few that immediately surfaced:

Kansas - Two For the Show
Thin Lizzy - Renegade
City Boy - The Day the Earth Caught Fire
Trust - Prefabricated
Saxon - The Power and the Glory (Saxon is coming to DC and Baltimore in October, so it's likely I'll be blowing the dust off of this album and listening to it again soon!)

Actually listened to Hemispheres, Two For The Show, and 9012Live in the last two weeks. Amazing vocals on Leave It.

Toto IV

Came across one of the songs the other day on YouTube and had to pull out the old vinyl. I don't think there is a bad song on this album. Just great arrangements and musicianship. A true classic album in my eyes.

The other cool thing is my son who just started college discovered listening music on vinyl. In his words: "It just sounds so much better than stuff on CD or mp3s." This made me :D !

The Yes Album.

Last night, I heard "I've Seen All Good People" on the radio and got goosebumps.

Rod Morganstein is an absolute beast on drums! The Dregs are one of the great unsung bands of all time, IMO.

I'm reminded of attending a Dixie Dregs concert in Pittsburgh during the mid-90s. Next to me, there was a guy with a giant baseball cap and big round glasses screaming "Rod the god" all night long. Rod was indeed awesome and a super nice guy. He handed me a stick after the show.

The Doors 'Strange Days'. I cant seem to find that one and it's making me kinda mad. That one and a Rolling Stones mix cd that I made has turned up missing.

Tough choice, but I think I'll go with ELP "Pictures at an Exhibition," or Mountain "Flowers of Evil."

Funny thing about this thread is....... and I'm suprised it hasn't been brought up yet. Have any of you said "Album" to the younger generation and had them just look at you funny ? We know albums the newer generation knows "discs" but I think that may even fade away at some point here in my life.
