    Heard it at my cousin's house when I was 12. Bought it with my birthday money when I turned 13 . I'll be 58 next month.

    Chum, I'm the same age. Must've been 12 as well, was hanging around my buddy's house that summer when his parents were gone and his older brother who had just gone to college in Houston came home with this album by a new English group. He put on it on the record player and when Babe I'm Gonna Leave You hit the groove everybody's mouths just dropped. We played that song over and over and over.

    Chumlie...I inherited that old gear some years ago...had it refurbed about 10 years ago...you would not believe the sound that gear produces...that gear is from the mid 60's and it still sings like when it was new....has that old vintage look too!

    Wow! Haven't played this in awhile. Amazingly dynamic and open production.

    The Best is yet to Come with Patti is priceless!

    For some strange, unknown reason, the more I listen to the new music, the more I buy the old music.

    I forgot I owned this, and 'found' it last night with my BR concerts. Just ripped it to the music server, and it sounds GREAT. Even the regular CD is an excellent recording.

    Yea..old dad was a great lover of songs...he upgraded his gear,that was slightly out of my price range..so he ended up laying on me two Mc30 mono amps...one Mc240 stereo amp and one MX 110 pre-tuner Z series preamp...this gear sounds exceptional when playing back live recordings...like it was designed for it...

    Was listening to a band from the late 80's - 90's from Boulder Colorado this morning that I haven't listened to in a long time: The Samples. Good uptempo white boy reggae. Self Titled album.

    Pman, wasn't Michael Schenker in UFO? Anyway, 51 years ago today Charlie Watts played his first gig with the Rolling Stones. This vinyl has a cool booklet inside and some early hits. I haven't found the names of the group members inside but I found Andrew Loug Oldham's name as manager all over. Sheesh.

    Michael Schenker (born Michael Willy Schenker on 10 January 1955 in Hannover, Germany) is a German rock guitarist, best known for his tenure in UFO, in addition to his solo band. He first rose to fame as an early member of the Scorpions, then achieved fame in the mid-1970s as the lead guitar player for UFO.

    Here's another LOL

    I admit to being stuck in the 60's and 70's. Most of today's music doesn't move me like the music I listened to when I was a young-en.

    Fifty Foot Hose ~ Cauldron

    From Wiki;
    Fifty Foot Hose is a psychedelic rock band that formed in San Francisco in the late 1960s, and reformed in the 1990s. They were one of the first bands to fuse rock and experimental music. Like a few other acts of the time (most notably the United States of America), they consciously tried to combine the contemporary sounds of rock with electronic instruments and avant-garde compositional ideas.
