You're perfectly right. I'm sorry I classed the Magoos with The Strawberry Alarm Clock-Lemon Pipers crowd. I guess my memory isn't whatever it used to be--I could've looked at the song list on the...

Whoa--there's one of the first of the fad followers from The Day. I bought that thing when it first came out, and, after having listened (religiously) to the 13th Floor Elevators--probably the only...
That's one of my all-time favorites. I'd like to get levitation. Every few months, I drag that thing out and listen over and over for a few days. Who knew a jug could be made to sound like that? Back...
"I haven't heard that title, but I get what you're talking about. I experienced that a little bit with some of the selections on the Beatles CD remasters, Paul's bass on first listens, so pronounced,...
Anybody understand what I'm talking about ???
Yes indeed. It's relativity. It doesn't sound natural because the production is now out of sync with what we who listened to that music when it was...
I loved that first album, but this new one is even better.
T Rex is a guilty pleasure. A glam rock group, yet what a sound, and Electric Warrior is, I think, a pop-art masterpiece. I often listen to it on my way to work or on my way home--not so much at home...
Yep, the first group from anywhere to call themselves "psychedelic" was from, of all places, Texas. I have the original pressings of all their albums. One can hear echoes of their performances in the...
My wife got me the full-tilt boxed set. I too was anticipating a "better" version of the earlier albums, but there's a disclaimer--the earlier stuff was primarily mixed for mono, the dominant medium...
Acquired "The Platinum Collection: 40 Great Tracks", imported from England. One disk is entitled "Flying Home," which showcases Hampton's work with big bands, the other is entitled "Hot Mallets"...
My wife surprised me with the deluxe set, bless her heart. These are songs I've heard probably thousands of times, but I'm hearing things I never heard before, in, most significantly, John's great...
I'm sorry--I didn't mean to cause frustration--I thought the "Maybe a Stupid Reply" bit would be a clue that the reply was what they call in France or somewhere, "tongue in cheek," but I don't know...
Okay--how would you play it on said desert island? Or is the sheer possession enough?
Uh--whatsa "DID"?
I've looked for this on CD for awhile--Ten Years After "Rock and Roll Music to the World." I love this album--there's nothing on it I don't like. It's available as an import. Alvin "Lightning...

The other one I remember was a stunner. At a World's Fair (I don't remember which one, but Wikipedia points to it being the 1970 Osaka Fair. I remember it being much...
Back in the 1960's, during that period before there were such things as Moog synthesizers and such, there actually were (and had been for awhile) composers of what was called "electronic music."...
I finally acquired on CD one of my favorites from back in "the day": Spirit's "The Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus." Randy California, the guitarist, drowned a few years ago saving his young son from...
What a great image. That looks like the exact same stage set-up they used at WVU--it was probably the same tour--the time-line's right. Panatomic-X was a great film, one of my favorites--too bad you...
I saw the Association live once back when I was in college, in the '60's. Their harmonies were amazing--they were just as good live as on record. Last year, I got a cd compilation of all the...
IN THE CAR THIS MORNING, on my way to work, something I hadn't heard for too long. This is one of my all-time favorite albums--and this band's best, IMHO; unlike all other Child Prodigy Bolan albums,...
Okay. I ordered the dvd, 47 songs performed originally in the series, many of Cole's big hits along with a lot of "roots" jazz performed with some of the greats who appeared on Nat's show. One big...
I loved Nat King Cole's TV show when I was a kid--I got to see jazz legends who would otherwise have been only names I'd read--like Louis Armstrong before he became a pop star. Nat had one of the...
The only Steve Miller album I ever had was a Steve Miller Blues Band Album--I think it was simply called "The Steve Miller Blues Band." I wish I still had it. I remember it as quite good. He's a...
The sight of that Manhattan Transfer album cover inspired me to drag out a really old album--the very first Manhattan Transfer Album: "Jukin." with Gene Pistelli (I'm not sure about the spelling of...
