thanks Morten. Obviously its for the FAN, and you're such a Stones fan, I think it's worthwhile. I actually really enjoy those first three Wyman solo albums alot, but I'm definitely in the minority.
I know Glen, right...a shocker. What can I say. Didn't like the drum sound on the album. Didn't think most of the songs were particularly good - yea overall was a big disappointment for me. But glad you loved it. Oh well, I'm always honest though.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow You want bad drum sounds, The ZZ Top friggin' Six Pack, they added horrible fake reverb to the drums, I dont want those classic ZZ Top albums to sound like Eliminator. Traded my copy back!
As an exhibitionist, I saw the Exhibitionism show in New York. It's a shame I didn't know you then. That was probably a great trip to London. I love that Ian Hunter album. I'll be seeing Maxxxxine next week. By the way, I expect to see you in Las Vegas when the Stones do a residency at the Sphere. Start saving your money 🤑🤑😂🤣
@@davidkunzli680 ...dupe comment - I will say The Sphere is beyond incredible. I mean its not a "regular" concert, but it's beyond. Incredible experience and most importantly the sound....perfection.
Just bought a 2 cd Wishbone Ash compilation today from my local music store called Time Was on MCA, paid $4.99, not a bad price in my book, Wishbone Ash cds are not easily found on the used racks. I only owned one cd by them, Argus with some bonus tracks.
It's true, its not easy to find Wishbone Ash albums used in the racks - probably because they don't sell huge numbers and those who buy them keep them. I hope the one you got is Time Was The Wishbone Ash Collection which is a good 2 cd anthology of many of their songs. That's a good one with a booklet too. There is another Time Was 2 Cd live collection which is actually a cheap repress of two "grey" market live cd's that don't have great sound - "Time Line" and "The King Will Come Live". Definitely not an essential collection, but for the BIG fan ok to have. Anyway for the price - you did really great!
@TheAlanRosenbergShow The former collection from 1993, 23 tracks (which two are live tracks) on 2 cds, complied by members Andy Powell, and Ted Turner.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow Also picked up another compilation today at the same place, Further Along, the best of The Flying Burrito Bros, 21 tracks single cd. Looks to have a cover of Wild Horses too boot! Not really familiar with their work other than a brief appearance in the Gimme Shelter movie. Gonna spin Wishbone Ash and that one tomorrow. I need to get a t-shirt that says Support your local record store!
A record store I used to go to used to use them and they said they really fixed up the scratches. Sounds like a great purchase. I think I might look into one. Thanks.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow so exited to receive the rest of the Supertramp albums and am exited to see your eagles album ranking video, also have been loving the ccr box set.
Hi Alan 😊 I enjoy the 2015 time time capsule that year I seen the Rolling stones in Buffalo New York with my friends and I Bill wyman new album I ordered it but like you Alan I like listening to other music 🎵 out there but long it good music I am there but I also like the eagles I am watching the Grammy awards but I don't know any of the new musicians thanks for your show channel! From Terrance D. Merrifield in Erie, Pennsylvania
Boo! Hiss! Boo! No more Time Capsules 'til 2026! Boo! Enjoyed this, even though up to Isbell I was getting ready to type "Haven't heard any of these albums!" Two things: Have just ordered the Waterboys CD as I don't have that one, so I trust it is as good as you say (heh heh), and I am afraid to say that I believe that your dismissal of DBT post-Isbell is, let's say, misguided. I have every single one of their albums and they are consistently excellent, musically AND lyrically - there are no poor albums among them. Not really even average ones. They are consistently worth hearing. Really, really, really. I probably actually prefer them post-Jason, but of course there are more DBT albums post-Jason than with him, now. They are one of my favourite bands of the 21st Century, no doubt at all (seen 'em live lots in London). Oh, and my thoughts on your Fairport set can be found on our previous thread in Time Capsule 1974.
Thanks - hope I disappoint you with that Waterboys album - but yea I really like that one. Alright I'll have to give another shot. I think I was never thrilled with Patterson Hood's voice - thought it was good, but the Isbell song's on those DBT albums were always my favorites. But on occasion I see those post Isbell DBT albums in the wild and I'll give them another show. By the way, Decoration Day is an all time classic album for me. I'll look for that other comment now. And yes no more Time Capsules till 2026. As you know I do them in yearly (ten year increments).
Didn't realize how many good albums that came out that year.Of course the Steven Wilson that would be my no.1.Gilmour album fantastic also,Dylan I also have the 2 cd release.I'll have to play that Henley again haven't played that in a while.Will have to check out the Waterboys again don't have hardly anything by them I think maybe one album.
I have to give that Wilson album another play. I haven't heard it in years and years but I do remember liking it a lot. I am hit and miss with both him and Porcupine Tree. I've grown to love The Waterboys, but there's a lot of albums. This one I played all the time at that time. thanks my friend.
@@thomaswery3087 Interesting that you rate Spirit and Humble Pie so high. I mean I like them and a couple of their albums are fantastic (Rockin' The Fillmore and Dr. Sardonicus are two of my all time favorites), but i find their catalogs a very mixed bag and have actually dumped albums of theirs. I have to research Riverside.
I'll go off the main road for a few lesser known goodies: Young Gun Silver Fox-"West End Coast" Cats In Space -"To Many Gods" Martin Courtney - "Many Moons" Mystery-"Delusion Rain"
All I got, not much going on by now😮💨 2005 / 2015 albums combined: 1. Kate Bush - Aerial 4/5 (2005) 2. John Frusciante - Curtains 4/5 (2005) 3. The Chemical Brothers - Push the Button 4/5 (2005) 4. Lana Del Rey - Honeymoon 3/5 (2015) 5. Mercury Rev - The Light in You 3/5 (2015) 6. Porcupine Tree - Deadwing 3/5 (2005)
yea - relatively slim pickings, and for two years too. Aerial didn't do much for me, though I did appreciate her "artistry". I tried Lana Del Rey twice so far. My daughter is a huge fan. I find her a "yawn" over the course of a full album. I dumped the two albums I bought. Thanks.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow Can't win ém all my friend lol. The CE Cutting Edge box is essential Bob, do you own it? The Keith solo album was a huge disappointment, what did you think of the Main Offender album? I've never liked anything Steven Wilson puts out solo, just bores me. How do you rate the Tull albums from the 80s onwards?
@@seekah1 I thought Main Offender had some Great songs, but was a disappointment compared to Talk Is Cheap. Many of the songs were more "riffs" in search of a really good / tight song. I think Jagger could've done wonders on some of those tracks regarding editing and tightening them up. I don't have the big Cutting Edge boxset. I just don't need the umpteen versions of the same songs over and over, as interesting they are - it's a one listen for me. As for Tull, I did the Tull album rankings and the 80's albums fall where they fall in the video. If you separate them out - they'll have their own ranking. Thanks.
I saw the Exhibitionism show in New York. It's a shame I didn't know you then.I really enjoyed the Ian Hunter and Waterboys albums. I didn't care much for the Don Henley. I will be seeing Maxxxxxine next week.....get ready. I expect to see you at a Stones residency in Las Vegas. Start saving money now.🤑🤑😂🤣
If the Stones play at the Sphere I would definitely be there (assuming I could afford it). I think you'll enjoy Maxxxine. I saw the Exhibitionism in NY too, it was a weird venue though. I remember feeling it was much smaller than the London one...or at least the venue itself. That was a great show - they did it up so well. Nice book too.
Hey, 45 albums is nothing to sneeze at. I've got 10. OK, so what's really great from 2015? Well, there's Vulnicura by Bjork. This album is completely insane and not for the faint of heart, but I think it's way cool. Wolflight is another great album by Steve Hackett. Especially check out "Love Song to a Vampire." Sco-Mule (Gov't Mule with John Scofield) was recorded live in 1999 but released in 2015. All instrumental jams and they are completely awesome. I won't include Still by Richard Thompson because it's not one of his best, but the bonus disc, called Variations EP, is way better and contains five amazing songs. But I know two true masterpieces from 2015. #2 is Hand. Cannot. Erase. And #1 is The Grand Experiment, the debut album by the official Neal Morse Band, a perfect album, a masterclass in rock and prog. I know it's way past the heyday of rock and roll, but to me it's one of the greatest rock albums ever made.
I have that Wolflight live album from Steve Hackett, which features some of the songs. Love Song To A Vampire is really cool. Yea like that one. Been a long time since I've listened to Hand Cannot Erase. Have to give it a re-listen. Thanks for the recommendation from Neil Morse Band. I haven't really listened to his solo stuff but I really enjoyed a lot of Spocks Beard. I will definitely be looking out for that one. Best, Alan
Not the greatest year but some fine albums there.. Hand Cannot Erase is one of my favourite ones, the song Cradle to the Grave was used for a tv sitcom on the BBC called Cradle to Grave.
That's really cool information. I always wondered how big Squeeze was on your side of the pond. I saw them live back in their heyday and they became huge in the NYC tri-state area and some other pockets. Had some BIG hits here, but then they faded away. Cool information. That's a really really good Squeeze album in my opinion.
Bill Wyman once said if he could play in another band it would be for CCR with Fogerty. He still did alright but he probably had to put up with a lot of Prima Donna behavior from Jagger. I don’t understand why you like Wishbone Ash. I gave them a listen and they did nothing for me. A band with no hits doesn’t interest me. But whatever. I like the Steve Miller Band, the Electric Prunes, live in Stockholm 1967!, Missing Persons, and the Pretenders! The Police are probably my favorite band besides the Doors, Cars and CCR and ARS. Boston, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, Nirvana and S. Pumpkins also. But to each his own. I’d rather listen to the Beatles or Stones than Wishbone Ash. But you go ahead. Knock yourself out. No offense.
Not the best music year. My top albums 2015: 1. Jason Isbell - Something.. 2. Keith Richards - Crosseyed Heart 3. JJ Grey - Ol Glory 4. Dave and Phil Alvin - Lost Time 5. Samantha Fish - Wild Heart 6. Beth Hart - Better Than Home 7. JD MacPherson - Let the Good Times Roll 8. Leon Bridges - Coming Home 9. Eilen Jewell - Sun Down... 10. Richard Thompson - Still
Thanks Joe. I have a lot of Richard Thompson but far from everything. I never picked up Still though. I'm a fan of Beth Hart and also Samantha Fish (though not as much as I like Beth Hart). But I definitely pick and choose which ones to get. I can only take both of them in doses. I'll definitely be on the lookout for those two. Thanks again.
Sadly, I have to agree that Keith album is very disappointing 😞 Stones Leeds cd is a great one .Blackberry Smoke are terrific, but they have definitely made better albums .Hunter live cd is ...Wow, caught them live..Superb! Modern Blues is my No 1...Mike Scott.is the Man
Thank you so much. I really appreciate this (and not because you agreed with me). I found that Keith album nothing with nothing. Didn't like the drum sound, didn't like the production and with one or two exceptions, the songs were forgettable. And they are. I imagine most people couldn't hear more than a song or two in their head from that album....not the case from the other two solo albums from Keith. But again, the critics trip over themselves with accolades blah blah blah. here's what I say.. If everything is great...then nothing is great. Thanks again.
Lots of good music there. The Bill Wyman solo box was probably the one I'd want the most of what I didn't have 😊
