Whats playing on your system today?

Norah Jones

Right now I'm listening to The Doobie Brothers - What Were Once Habits are now Vices on Vinyl (as it was meant to be!). Eyes of Silver is sounding great!

"A RL version of Led Zeppelin ll which I just bought last week from a local used record store."

Question: what does RL refer to? 

Floating points, Elaenia, on Luaka bop LB0085LP. Very good.

Hi Geoff:
Robert Ludwig was the original mastering engineer for this album and arranged to cut deep grooves for better dynamics.  The story (myth?) is that Ahmet Ertegun's daughter's record player could not track it so Ertegun ordered it remastered (not by Ludwig) and repressed which reduced dynamics.
The early versions have RL written in the deadwax. 

Saxon, Wheels of steel, Cd.

nutty ,
I just got back from san fransico at a big vinyl swap.I remembered you when i came across 4 Budgie albums 1 was 50.00 and the other 3 were 100 each.I didnt get them them but i remember you guys talking about them .little too pricey.

Tonight i listened to
Marillion ....Script for a Jesters Tear..
Genesis.... A trick of the tail
Steely Dan... aja

Then my toddler was beating on the door..

oldschool,

Too bad about the prices on the LP’s. Wow! Budgie has some great music. They do have a Best of Budgie on Amazon, CD I believe. All of my Budgie media is from download.
Budgie, 1971
Squawk, 1972
Never turn your back on a friend, 1973
In for the kill, 1974
Bandolier, 1975
Impeckable, 1978
Power supply, 1980
Nightfright, 1981
Deliver us from evil, 1982
The definitive Anthology, 1996
You’re all in living cuckooland, 2006

Thanks for thinking of me, Budgie and the music that "Everyone" has contributed to this thread! Enjoy the music. "Reaper of the glory"

The Cult, Electric, CD.
I'd have to go with "Love removal machine" as my fav song on this masterpiece.

N

Nutty,

Have to agree that "Love removal Machine" kicks major ass 😎.
My 2nd choice from Electric is "Aphrodisiac Jacket". They also do a kick ass cover of "Born to be Wild".

Plat it loud brotha!

I've decided it's going to be 80's metal night. Starting off with Motley Crue, "Dr. Feel-good" and then on to Stone Fury "Burns like a Star". 

Trivia for those that are interested, what popular 90's band came from the short lived Stone Fury?

mmusicman,

I give.... whats the band? 
Tonight I'm going with Bulletboys, Freekshow, CD.
It's like if Van Halen all had children and they grew up and formed a band,,,,recorded an albumn,,, this is what it would sound like.
"Hang on St. Christopher"

I believe he was involved with Kindom Come
.
Nutty I did alot of roadie and live sound in the 80s 
We partied with the Bullet Boys many times along with many 80s bands like them bang tango, la guns, etc many many more... funny and of course our local boys Kix  "oh the stories lol"
 \
tonight
Marillion  Fugazi
Montrose Paper Money
Ufo live


 

Oleschool is correct. After Stone Fury failed to attract much attention on the charts after two albums, Lenny Wolf switched record labels and formed Kingdom Come which as you may know hit it big time.

If you come across "Burns like a Star", grab it as it is 80's metal to the hilt and Lenny has a pretty killer voice. 

As for the party scene, I've had beers with the guys in Jackyl, met the guys in Nazareth and Candlebox.

oleschool,
Sounds like the 80’s were a lot of work and fun for you. I have a lot of 80’s media and like alot of music from that period. I have Kingdom Come S/T, great CD.
Great set list also. "Paper Money" being the last Montrose featuring Sammy and "UFO Live" is one of my favorite live recordings (And Tull, "A little Light music").

nmmusicman,
I’ll look into you recommendation. I’ve not heard it. Always looking for new music.
Love Jackyl, saw them twice. I listed Jesse James Dupree as one of my all time favorite front men and vocalist. I have one Nazareth, great band. Huge Candlebox fan too. At one show, someone from the crowd tossed a Viking helmet on stage, it didn’t fit so he duct taped it onto his head for several songs! My fav song from them is "Rain". Definitely. Here’s a link to a fantastic live version. It is smokin hot.

Thanks again for posting, Everyone!

Katmandu, S/T, CD 1991.
This one isn't a solid CD but one track stands out by light years. Its great. Driving drumms, searing guitar and howling vocals.
Vocalist Dave King from "Fastway"....Guitarist Mandy Meyer from "Krokus and Asia"...drummer Mike Alonso of "Flogging Molly"...
"When the rain comes"  is a classic.

Putting on Miles Davis "Jack Johnson" MFSL (lp)

I had a lot of catching up to do!
nmmusicman- Stone Fury is great. Don’t know how they got past me back in the day. Your a Crue fan? I’m not a big one. But I do have the 1994 S/T disc without Vince. It’s recorded great and has some solid tracks. I know Marrion, have you heard of Trillion?

jafant- I dig Tracy. Did you catch the cover of "Give me one reason" by Leslie West on his "Soundcheck"? The whole disc is great.

oleschool - I’m a huge April Wine fan. Heard just about everything and have several of theirs. Y&T was great, "Summertime girls", who could forget. Need to dig into the Tigers of Pentang and Ozric Tenecles.(did I spell that correctly. ;-)

astro58go- My wife loves Miles so he gets pleanty of airtime. I saw you listened to Queen. One of my favorite bands ever. Saw them in Cincinnati before we lost Freddie M.
