The Who - Who’s Next the Life House super deluxe edition.  Great for listening and breaking in new equipment with 10 CDs.  

Zebop - Santana 

Big Change - Neil Young

Yes - Close to the Edge.  The new super deluxe reissue.  

Thanks.  You too.  I love the Yes album, Fragile and Close to the Edge.  An amazing 3 album run.  
 

Neil Young - Oceanside Countryside.  Comes a Time and Tonight’s the Night.  

The new Jethro Tull - Curious Ruminant 

Grateful Dead - the Music Never Stopped.  Songs from their upcoming 60th anniversary box set. 

Deep Purple - Made in Japan.  The Steve Wilson remix just released.  Does the guy ever sleep?  Sounds better than ever.  I remember asking my Dad to buy me the album back in the day.  Space Trucking was an entire side.  Those were the days. 

Rush - 50.  50 year anniversary retrospective.  Includes 7 unreleased cuts including one from their last concert.  RIP NP.

Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsies and Songs for Groovy Children.  Getting ready for the Experience Hendrix concert tonight.  

Aerosmith - Dream On and Get Your Wings 

Grateful Dead - So Many Roads.  I only had the 3rd of 5 CDs when I moved.  Found a used version missing disc 3.  It was meant to be.  Reunited and it sound so good.  

Sabotage - Black Sabbath.  The Super Deluxe edition with 2 CDs from their US tour in 75.  

Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti.  50 years later.  

The Moody Blues - career spanning playlist.  Tuesday Afternoon. 

Dan Fogelberg - Souvenirs 50th anniversary edition 

Dire Straits - Love Over Gold.  Seems appropriate. 

Pink Floyd for Passover - Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here 

Rush - Moving Pictures.  RIP Neil Peart. 

Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live.  RIP.  

Crown Lands - Fearless 

Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsies 

Brother in Arms - Dire Straits.  SACD.  

Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii MCMLXXII 

Fire on the Bayou - The Neville Brothers 

Santana - Zebop.  The 30th anniversary edition CD.  I know it’s compressed compared to other versions but it sounds the best to me.  A good match for my old guy ears.  

Dire Straits - Making Movies 

Elvis Costello- his 1st 3 albums.  My Aim is True, This Year’s Model and Armed Forces.  

Dire Straits - Bothers in Arms.  20th anniversary CD 

Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms 40th anniversary edition that was just released.  It has over 2 hours of live music from a concert in San Antonio from their 85 tour.  

The Who - in honor of Pete Townshend’s 80th birthday.  More common with classic rockers that have made it this far.  Robin Trower 80 this year.  Seeing him finally next month but passing on the latest Who retirement tour.  I’ve been going since they started retiring in 1980.  I might if it was somewhere other than Fenway Park.  Worst place for a concert.  So many obstructed view seats and seats that face the wrong way.  Terrible acoustics and the facilities are a joke.  To top it off the parking is expensive and you can’t tailgate.  Oh well, glad I saw them one last time in Quebec and happy birthday Pete! 

Steely Dan - The Royal Scam.  

Did you listen to the new Counting Crows album?  Recently streamed it and it was worth a listen.  

Jethro Tull - Teacher.  1st release from upcoming Still Living in the Past book box set. 

Great selections.  I have multiple versions of Brothers in Arms including the SACD.  Streaming the 40th anniversary edition and it sounds great as always with a bonus concert recording from their 85 tour for the album.  I just put together a Dire Straits playlist.  It’s almost all of their studio and live albums.  13 hours long.  All good.  
RIP Rick Derringer. 
ELP is definitely a desert album.

Ambrosia - Ambrosia.  Debut album helped by Alan Parsons genius.  Nice nice very nice.  

Let All That We Imagine Be The Light - Garbage 

Bob Marley - 3 Little Birds.  Watching the sunset on the lake on a beautiful night 

@g2the2nd cool jam thanks for sharing 

Walk This Road -  new Doobie Bothers album.  Great to hear the old gang back together.  

Jeff Beck - Live in The Cage 1980.  Audience recording of a show I saw live.  

Four80East - Barn Sessions, Volume 1 

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.  It’s the 50th anniversary.  50 years of musical bliss.  

For Earth Below - Robin Trower.  50th anniversary edition.  Saw him live for the first time this weekend.  Still rocking at 80! 

Larry Carlton - Minute by Minute and more.  Very smooth jazz fusion. 

Jethro Tull - Still Living In The Past.  The book box set came out today.  

Deep Purple - Made in Japan.  The super deluxe CD and BluRay set they just released.  The Steve Wilson remix is excellent.  It jumps out of the speakers compared to the original album I’ve listened to for years.  Working my way through all 3 concerts from Japan plus the encores.  Great stuff adding to one of the greatest live albums evah. 

Steely Dan - The Royal Scam.  Enough said. 

Grateful Dead - WorkingMan’s Dead.  Happy Labor Day!
