"Island of Hope and Tears" By Nightnoise
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?

Dixie Chicks "Fly" (lp) My only other DC album was "Home"...because it was the only one that was offered on lp at the time. It is a great lp! Superior songwriting and a more mature offering than "Fly", IMO. I had to go for (Fly) now that it has been on out lp. I have fun comparing/listening. Still a good debut. Going to put on Robert Plant "Carry Fire" in a little bit. |
The Jesus and Mary Chain -- Damage and Joy I Really like this album. Not just some old bags reliving history and cashing in on the band name by releasing substandard songs, it’s really solid material all the way through, even if more than a few tunes trickled out the past few years, making this a compilation of sorts. |
Paul Gilbert, Get out of my yard "Full Tank" https://youtu.be/1ZfOrCJThWo "Twelve Twelve" https://youtu.be/51Ov4nmyNzk N |
Nutty, Too bad the Gardens had to be torn down. Was a nice old building. Beautiful facade. Also housed 2 sheets of ice used by youth, high-school and college hockey and figure-skating programs, covering the Greater Cincinnati Area, UC and Xavier. Was a great loss to those programs. I spent many Saturday and Sunday mornings there for youth hockey with my son. I hope they do something productive with the site. |
Fleetwood Mac, Rumours Depression and misery at its finest. arcam88, ordred a copy of the Triumph, In the Beginning disc you recommended. I had it on cassette years ago. Attended their show in Norwood Ohio. effischer, Bennet/Gaga is amazing. I mentioned that one earlier on this thread. Excellent recording. N |
@slaw - Saw your post from 1/13/2018 regarding The Cranberries - "Everybody else is doing it, so why can't we?" on Analog Spark LP. I've always enjoyed that album, but only had it on original CD. Put it in my Amazon wishlist yesterday and woke up this morning to the news of Dolores O'Riordan's death. Went to Amazon to purchase the Lp and it had gone out of stock. Ran over to my totally awesome LRS - Plaid Room Records in Loveland, OH and they had a copy waiting for me at the front desk since I had called ahead. Anyway, really sad news regarding Ms. O'Riordan. I've always liked The Cranberries sound. The Analog Spark reissue is fantastic. Much better than my old original release CD. Thanks for the recommendation. |
Unplugged..... Alice In Chains I have a lot of cassettes and I play back through a Nakamichi582. Like vinyl quality of recording can be a mixed bag. This mix on cassette ranks among one of my better cassette recordings. The vocals and acoustic guitar are real standouts. Not sure how many others here still play tapes...... |
@slaw I have compared the vinyl to tidal streamed version. The vinyl wins hands down on all fronts. The soundstage and imaging is much more defined. Just comparing say drum strikes, the vinyl really sounds like a drum(full and vibrant) whereas the tidal sounds more sterile. Bass also feels more natural and strives lower imho. I may have to order that cranberries album from their label too. |
