Hot Tip / Stop All Motion
1981 Attic Records

Rocking power pop from a band nobody’s heard of

@curiousjim A friend had mentioned hearing “Rolene” on the radio the other day and prompted me to play some Moon Martin…like @loomisjohnson, I hadn’t played his music in like, forever. I don’t know why, as @bdp24 said, it’s “fantastic”.

Moon Martin / Street Fever
1980 Capitol

@bdp24 I cranked this one up last night too, forgot to post. Your ex-wife ran his fan club, pretty cool! He also wrote “Bad Case Of Loving You (Doctor, Doctor)”, which was made famous by Robert Palmer.

Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers / “Damn The Torpedoes”
1979 Backstreet

The Jim Carroll Band / Catholic Boy
1980 ATCO

Jim Carroll, poet and serious Rock’n’Roller

Fotomaker / S-T
1977 Atlantic

Started by former members of The Rascals, Raspberries, others…1977 Power Pop

Van Halen / S-T
1978 Warner Bros.

Debut album. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen plays what is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitar solos of all time on the cover version of the Kinks “You Really Got Me”.


Gregg Allman / Southern Blood
2017 Rounder

Released four months after his death, GA covers some favorites…I can’t get by his version of Garcia/Hunter’s “Black Muddy River” without a re-cue….or two…


Terry Allen And The Panhandle Mystery Band / Just Like Moby Dick
2020 Paradise Of Bachelors

So much to like here, great storytelling, music, sound quality
 

@noromance Somewhat similar pop rock styles Brian, less on the funk rock. More reminiscent to me of say… a dialed back and smoother pop/rock sound of Huey Lewis and The News. Ace’s big hit—you’ll remember it— is “How Long”.

I’d forgotten about “Midnight Runaway” on that Three Dog Night album…

Ace / No Strings
1977 Anchor

In the mood for some Ace and Paul Carrack tonight…

Peter Frampton / Frampton@ 50
2023 Intervention, orig. 1972, ‘73, ‘75

Outstanding Frampton box from Intervention. Fabulous sound quality (far exceeds my originals), super quiet flat vinyl, really nice high end packaging. No. 1467 out of 2500.

Motown Collected
2021 Music On Vinyl

Amazing song selection, back cover with list shown


Savoy Brown / Street Corner Talking
1971 Parrot

Kim Simmonds on Lead Guitar

@jdougs  I’ll never stop learning…especially about how much some of these LP’s are worth. That said, for me their monetary value will never exceed their listening value. My kids and the insurance agent would feel differently…😎

I appreciate the enlightenment, thanks for taking the time.
Nice system, btw!

@jdougs That’s interesting! I have that same record and it too has his initials like yours…I’d never noticed it before. Cool, thanks!

The Bad Ends / The Power And The Glory
2022 New West

The back cover has autographs.

Two more LP’s of colored vinyl…please…can I just have it in black??!!
