    Was listening to this one:

    51_JHm_SLNGs_L_SS400.jpg

    Gary_Numan_The_Pleasure_Principle_Back.jpg

    One of my top 10 best recorded albums, as well as being a fantastic album. If you don't own this one, go buy the 30th anniversary CD now!

    Japan needs to get on the ball and release this one on SHM-SACD.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Msabot1: Rio Grande Mud and Tres Hombres are both full of great stuff. I feel about ZZ Top kinda like I feel about U2, I know some will disagree, but Boy and October I find to be their best albums. When those albums came out in 80 and 81 they were fresh and alive. I was lucky enough to pick up Boy right when it came out and I looked forward to their next album with great anticipation. Same with ZZ Top, they had a newness about them in the beginning, everybody I know played Mud and Tres ALL the time in high school. I've seen both bands live several times but their success made them less appealing to me. Although the last time I saw ZZ Top a few years ago, they played a whole bunch of early blues.

    Not an argument there pal...Boy is classic...even now I Will Follow cranked will get you off your keister.....first time I saw ZZ..I had only vaguely heard of them..played a tobacco warehouse in Ky in late 72... Opened for Bob's silver bullet band...floored the crowd too...Saw them twice since..last they were promoting Hombres...nothing like em back in the day...no bs...just jammin...solid sets...

    Joey Ward, that Steve Young is a re-release double CD of Renegade Picker and also No Place To Fall. Excellent. One of the most under-appreciated musicians of all time.

    I agree Steve Young is most under appreciated. When I heard his Seven Bridges Road back in 1971 for the first It was a keeper along with Link Wray self titled release Link Wray. Pick up both Steve and Link lp's the same day new back then and came home and listen to both, Wow two fines back to back.

    MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR by Beatles
    Note...Saw the fab four at the Hollywood bowl in summer of 1965 when I was12 years old. Really didn't hear much of the Beatles because of all the screaming girls. I remember the announcement of the BEATLES, then a concert of screaming girls, then it was over. All I can say about that concert is, I was there.
