Whats playing on your system today?

Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.

I listened to Trower songs:
Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....

Then I pulled out "Gamma". 
I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....

Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?

Hello @jafant 

Didn't even know there was a 50th anniversary release.  I'll have to check it out and see what's being offered.  I assume his brother Donal had a hand in it?  I sort of doubt I'd get a box of his full discography...but maybe some individual discs?  I don't own Blueprint so that might be a good test case to try.  Thanks for the heads up.

Well, I checked it out.  I thought "50th anniversary" meant some sort of retrospective/reissue overview of albums from his career.  Turns out it is just that one self-titled 1971 recording.  What was 1 CD is now 4 (+ a live show DVD) filled out by 30 outtakes and alternate takes.  Just $105.99 on Amazon (slimmed down offerings also available, I should point out).  But 30 outtakes and alternates?  I'm thinking there's probably a reason they were left off the original release.  No offense to fans or his estate but for me, personally, I find this kind of stuff annoying.

Thank You for the follow up. I have been looking for a jump-in-point for Rory.  I will probably start with the 1971 s/t CD. What is the best pressing?

Happy Listening!
