This thread is for forum members to recommend albums/artists/tracks that other forum members may not have or even heard of. We probably have or are aware of the most famous artists/albums, e.g Exile On Main Street by Rolling Stones but what about other artists/albums/tracks we'd recommend. For example. I have an album by Jason & The Scorchers called "Lost and Found" from 1985 which I highly recommend. JJ Cale "Anthology" is another highly recommended album. Corey Stevens, "Blue drops Of Rain". Has a track named "The Brothers" that is one of the best songs I have ever heard. Molly Hatchet, "Fall of the Peacemakers" off the "No Guts...No Glory" album. Up there with "Freebird". Blue Ridge Rangers. Album by John Fogerty under name of Blue Ridge Rangers where he covers some country songs and plays ALL the instruments. Also his "Centrefield" and "Blue Moon Swamp" album. Electric Light Orchestra, " A New World Record". A highly under rated album which in my view is a classic. Grateful Dead, "American Beauty" and "In The Dark". Two more classics. Happy Mondays. "Pills,Thrills and Bellyaches". I love the song "Step On" which of course was taken from a John Congos '71 song "He's Gonna Step On You Again". Los Lobos. "The Neighbourhood". Joan Osbourne. "Relish". Has the track "If God was One Of Us". The rest of the album is brill as well. Rolling Stones. "Stripped". The so called unplugged Stones album. Superb. Velvet Underground. "1969" . A live double album. Possibly one of the best live albums of all time. Van Morrison & The Chieftans. "Irish Heartbeat". what a combination playing some old Irish classics. Warren Zevon. "Stand In The Shadow" . Live album. Another great guy, sadly gone. Anyway, thats a few albums/artists/tracks that I personally recommend. These may not be your taste or you may already have all these. I hope you guys give me a few suggestions/recommendations. Even new artists. ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. Biker Pat Grove 1972-1975 |

Rock on Russ. Look forward to your recommendations. It's hard to know where to stop here as I'm assuming most folks have a knowledge of music, through Cecil/Grove days. ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. Biker Pat Grove 1972-1975 |

Revolution Calling , Revolution Calling, Calling all you prog. rockers out there, just a quick word to recommend the long awaited return to form of seattle's greatest ever band, Queensryche. Yes indeed the long awaited Operation Mindcrime2 is on the shelves and is well worth a listen. all the favourites are there including the wonderful Pamela Moor as Sister Mary , and check out the legendary Ronnie James Dio as Doctor X on "the chase ".

no rolo he just uses giant boots. just saw dio recently in the ambassador and was blown away. small man, big voice. just awesome . he did a load of old rainbow and sabbath classics. i'm working on a review for the site , maybe i'll convince you of his merits after you read that. ------------- softlad "remember if you wanna get aHEAD you gotta give a little" |

Seriously Softlad,ya don't have to convince me about his voice.Not his fault he's Vertically Challenged. I'm a big fan of Heaven and Hell and of his Rainbow stuff. In fact I think Starstruck is a deadly song and one of my old favourites. Would welcome a review of that show and of any others you can manage. Rolo. |

rolo and russian, you guys should check out dio's older stuff with elf . it's a bit more american country and blues than you'd imagine but some of the more mellow moments like 'this is your life' and 'never more' and the sublime 'wonderworld' showcase his voice amazingly well. the more upbeat stuff like 'black swampy water ' and 'prentice wood' create a great singalong moments. checkout the 3 elf albums : 1) elf 2) trying to burn the sun 3) carolina country ball ------------- softlad "remember if you wanna get aHEAD you gotta give a little" |

I know I *should* have better things to do on a Saturday night but I am slouched (post Ireland match) in front of my computer listening to "platinum" by Mike Oldfield. If you havent already got the album, check it out - it used to be a BIG favourite at all our old parties and everyone used to really enjoy it.

Hi Mel, (isn't google barred here? think I read that in a post!) Yep I think she was more of a folk singer and that was her big single.

Going to a Games (D&D) convention in Clontarf Castle (great venue) on Saturday, Sunday and Monday of that weekend but there's only a Charity Auction on Sunday night which I'm sure I can skip (I can never afford to match the bids on stuff I want) - I'd say I can easily make the 7.30pm start down the road from Clontarf Castle in the Sheiling (just gotta make sure everything is aOK with the other half!!).

BR, I have both the Factions and regular Guild Wars games - personally, I slightly prefer the regular GW but they're both fab!! Re other half's permission, its probably a given but she herself seems unsure whether she wants to come along too (she went to a few groves back in the day and she now says they were "OK" but I suspect she wouldnt be mad keen on coming down herself to a reunion - could be wrong). Shouldnt be a problem for me to get there anyway.... PS I'd say ye would love the Games Convention if ye get a chance to get down - fab venue too + a full bar!! There is a charge for both of ye if you both intend to play games but you can purchase some sort of "minder" ticket pretty cheaply (I think) which means that he can play games but you are there as guardian. |

Well spotted BR, That'd be rule #1746: '1 star deducted from anyone who admits to owning 1 or more Chris deBurgh records' (both myself & mel got Groupie+2 stars after 20 posts - guess a 1 star Active member beats a 2 star Groupie?) CP btw, got Dylan's Modern Times Yesterday but have only listened to 1st track, Thunder on the Mountain - excellent. |
