    Day 19
    I bought this album Blind Faith out of a catalog. My copy is a USA version. It has the picture of the whole band on the front of the cover. This album was released in 1969. I love the songs on this album. The back of the cover has all the lyrics of each track printed on it. When my cousin was over she wanted to listen to my new album. We played it a number of times. I’ve never got sick of listening to this album even today I listen to it. Of course my favorite guitarist is the lead guitarist on this album. My favorite songs on this album are “Had to Cry Today”, “Can’t Find My Way Home”, “Presence of the Lord”, “Sea of Joy”. This album is still in Lp format. The cover and sleeve are still in good condition. The record still plays quite well for the number of times that I listen to it.

      Morning, Melanie. The Blind Faith album - though didn't see the name - is a wonderful album. Cannot imagine you (or me, for that matter), having the import cover with the nudity thereon. The moms would have been apoplectic

    Back today with a little story involving Pete's album choice yesterday. My mum entered a general knowledge competition on local BBC radio and lo and behold she won. The prize was 6 assorted albums to be picked from the BBC library that they selected, but with input from the winner. She asked for a couple of heavy metal albums (this is the 70s so we are still talking anything from Foreigner and Journey to Motorhead, Sabbath and Priest qualifying) "for my son" A few days later the package arrived and it duly had a couple of classical music albums, a Frank Sinatra and the soundtrack selection from mum's favourite MGM musicals. Also included was See Forever Eyes by Canadian pomp rockers Prism and PIECES OF EIGHT by STYX of course. Now I had an EP of Styx music with 4 tracks from the previous A & M albums, but beyond those I'd never heard anything else, but had seen Geoff Barton's 5 star review of Pieces in Sounds music paper. So I was especially keen to hear this album in particular. I wasn't disappointed, Great White Hope, I'm OK, Lord Of The Rings, Blue Collar Man, Queen of Spades, Renegade (still my personal favourite Styx song), the title track and more, great songs just kept on coming. I'd found yet more rock heroes. Within a few weeks I'd added Grand Illusion to my collection and over the next few years as well as buying the new Styx releases added Crystal Ball and Equinox. Whenever I play pieces of Eight though I have so many happy memories, thanks mum RIP.

    My day 19 is Perusing the CDs at my local San Jose Where House records store and was attracted to the beautiful illustration of the Dead Can Dance - Aion 1990 CD. This Melbourne transplants to London, Lisa Gerrard, vocalist and vocalist Brendan Perry have created beautiful neoclassical darkwave/medieval folk music since 1981 into today. The beautiful Fortune Presents Gifts Not According to the Book and Black Sun from the Aion CD led me to get most of the discography on CD. I enjoy and listen to their music today.
    1. The first time I heard the Lambs Lies Down on Broadway vinyl record was on my family turn table in our recreation room. This was my first vinyl record back in 1977 from the Where House records store. The album cover designs intrigued me, especially the image of Rael reaching out to himself, Rael looking at the connection of the two Raels, and Rael with no mouth. This imagery of self-introspection appealed to my love of science fiction books from Harlan Ellison, J.G. Ballard and Robert Sheckley (among others). The surreal lyrics and music appealed to my love of science fiction and brought me into the world of progressive rock where I later bought other prog rock band vinyl records. I found myself singing out the lyrics in a full-throated roar... a connection to my love of profound science fiction stories and the words embedded in those stories. Today it is still one of my favorite progressive rock albums to listen to.
    2. Hearing Jethro Tull songs like Living in the Past, Aqualung and Locomotive Breath back in 1974 on our San Jose-based KOME rock station. Loved the intricate, unique flute sounds from Ian Anderson. Went with my father in 1974 to look at old vinyl records at Moe’s Records and purchased the Living in the Past vinyl record for around $2 or 3 dollars. Still have the record and play it occasionally on my son’s turntable.
    3. Hearing Rush for the first time on KSJO and KOME radio stations in 1981. The late DJ Dennis Erectus introduced the Tom Sawyer song on KOME. Today, I still love the album on CD.
    4. 1980 listening to ELO’s Out of the Blue 8 track tape cartridge on my first car, a brown Capri. I would crank this tape up for my 1982 Lincoln High School Senior Cut day to Santa Cruz, CA. Still listen to this album on my CD player in my car.
    5. In 1979 I purchased the Roxy Music vinyl record For Your Pleasure at the Campbell Tower Records store and played it on my turntable. I had heard past songs on the KOME radio station and first heard the Both Ends Burning song. Really liked the spookiness of the In Every Dream Home a Heartache song and listen to this CD often. Went with my wife to see Roxy Music at the San Francisco Chase Center a couple years ago and they sounded great. Manzanera, the guitarist was on fire that evening.
    6. Listening to Steely Dan’s hit Rick Don’t Lose That Number song on my parent’s car radio back in 1974. I then bought the Pretzel Logic vinyl record back in 1979 at the Where House record store. I listen to the CD frequently today and have grown to like the deeper cut songs like Night by Night and Pretzel Logic and dislike the pervasive elevator muzak versions of their songs.
    7. Hearing the Moody Blues - Nights in White Station on the radio station in 1973 for the first time. Remembering my older cousin recommending this band to me around 1975. He loved the Moody Blues. My cousin sadly passed away from substance abuse back in 2022. I often play the Moody Blues on CDs and fondly remember my older cousin’s passion for the Moody Blues.
    8. Hearing Kansas’ Dust in the Wind back in 1976 on the local KOME radio station at home. Went to the local Tower Records store and bought the Kansas Leftoverture vinyl record around 1979. Still listen to Leftoverture with my CD player at home in my car.
    9. Watching the January, 2019 SoT Top 10 Songs: Camel and starting to listen to their discography upon Pete’s recommendations. Had always heard of Camel but never explored their discography. Thank you Pete. First Camel CD that I explored was Mirage, purchased at Street Light Records in early 2019. Love Andy Latimer’s fantastic guitar tones.
    10. Watching the Suspiria movie back in 1979 on our family VCR player during the Halloween season and remembering the haunting music. Discovered that the Italian band Goblin created most of the movie sound track. Went to our local Where House record store and bought the Goblin Roller vinyl record in 1979. Expanded my Goblin discography in the 80s with their CDs and have seen them live a few times since 2013. Met the band members before their 2013 Warfield, San Francisco show. Listen to them regularly since then.
    11. Hearing Yes’ Roundabout song on the local San Jose rock station, KOME, in 1978. Went to our local used vinyl record store, Moe’s Records in 1979 and purchased the Yessongs triple vinyl record album for around $6. Enjoyed the live album then and still listen to the vinyl record today.
    12. Listening to the SoT Big Big Train episode - New Releases … Big Big Train - Grand Tour in 2019.
    Upon Pete’s strong review, I purchased the Big Big Train - English Electric: Full Power, compilation CD in 2019. I have been exploring their discography since 2019 and wanted to thank Peter for recommending them.
    13. Listening to Todd Rundgren’s Utopia’s Time Heals on the local rock KOME station back in 1978 and then seeing the 1982 Time Heals video on MTV. I then bought the Utopia Swing to the Right CD at our local Tower Records store. I then purchased most of their discography in CD format in the 80s. I have been listening to their CDs off and on till today.
    14. I am an avid reader of science fiction writer, Isaac Asimov and had read his classic I, Robot in the mid 70s. Listening to The Alan Parsons Projects song - I Robot on the San Jose KOME rock station in 1977 and saw the title I, Robot, drew me to the record. I then purchased The Alan Parsons Project vinyl record at Tower Records and then most of the discography on CDs in the 80s. I have been listening to their CDs and vinyl records off and on and into today.
    15. Listening to The Cars on the San Jose KOME rock station song - Good Times Roll in 1978. Went to the Towers Records store and bought The Cars - The Cars vinyl record in 1978. I then bought the next few Cars albums on CD and listened to them off and on until today.
    16. Hearing Supertramp’s Logical Song on the radio in 1979. Intrigued by the British view of America and went to the Where House Records store and bought the Breakfast in America vinyl record. Loved the lyrics in all of the songs, especially Child of Vision. I then went and bought several of their CDs in the 80s and have listened to them off and on till today.
    17. Acquired the Honey Barbara - I-10 & W. Ave. CD tip inserted into the Emigre Graphic Design magazine #60 in 2001. Listened to this Texas band’s quirky songs including Sleep Late, Beddie ‘bye and Killer Duds. Listen to this CD to remind me of my early Graphic Design career and for graphic design inspiration to today.
    18. Watching the 2020 SoT Ranking the Studio Albums: Gentle Giant episode and hearing Pete’s recommendations for ranking the Gentle Giant albums. Upon Pete’s recommendations, I acquired the Octopus album and then continued to get the other albums in their discography. Love the musical virtuosities of the band. Thank you Pete.
    19. Perusing the CDs at my local San Jose Where House records store and was attracted to the beautiful illustration of the Dead Can Dance - Aion 1990 CD. This Melbourne transplants to London, Lisa Gerrard, vocalist and vocalist Brendan Perry have created beautiful neoclassical darkwave/medieval folk music since 1981 into today.

    The Ides Of March was a local band from Berwyn Illinois. I heard there singles Vehicle and L A Goodbye on the Radio. I liked that horn arrangement in Vehicle a lot. That was when the horn bands such as Chicago and Blood Sweat and Tears were going strong. The debut lp by the Ides came out in 1970 but it wasnt till about 3 yrs later on a family trip to the mall when i veered off to the record store and found a copy of the vehicle lp in the budget section for 1. 99. What a bargain. When i got it home it was the first time i heard the whole thing and what an album it had songs with great horn arrangements throughout. Besides the title track the best songs are The Sky Is Falling. Wooden Ships Dharma For One Medley. My favorite Bald Medusa. Aire Of Good Feeling and Symphony For Eleonor. They have been active on and off since reuniting in 1990 still putting on great shows. That first album titled Vehicle still remains their best work.

    Hi Pete & everyone. Dave here. Back in 1983, I was mostly into the new wave artists and bands in the UK. But I happened to see an interview in Sounds, one of the UK music papers. It was with a new prog band from Southampton, England, who were releasing their debut album and were playing London's Marquee Club the following week. I had been mad keen on prog back in the 70s, so decided to check them out. Brilliant show, quite Genesis influenced, right down to the theatrical performance from the singer. Thought I'd buy the album at the gig, but they were sorry that, while the vinyl discs were ready, the cover hadn't come back from the printers. Still, I bought it on trust, leaving my address, and sure enough, the cover came in the post a week later. The band was IQ, who I've followed them ever since; the album was TALES FROM THE LUSH ATTIC. My second IQ gig was eventful too. Singer Peter Nicholls was ill, but the rest of the band still went ahead, sharing vocal duties, but playing more instrumental stuff.

    For today it will be a Midnight Special lookback. One of the 1st bands on that show was Argent and once I heard the song Hold Your Head Up played live,I knew I needed to get that album. So back in the day the 2 stores that I went to were Boscov's and Korvettes. Boscov's was sold out so I went across the street to Korvettes and got it there for I believe it was $3.29..I still have that original copy and will throw it on the turntable this weekend.

    Day 19: Dio - Holy Diver (1983)
    Now it's June of 1983. I graduated high school about three weeks before. My dad and I moved to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi in late 1979 when he took a job there. My paternal grandparents still lived in the St. Louis area and my oldest brother and I went to visit them for a few weeks. My other brother was in the Army.
    Anyway, a few days after my brother and I arrived at my grandparents, we went to our favorite record store. While we were looking for albums, the owner came up to me and handed me an album and said, “Hey, Deb, I think you will like this one”. I looked at the cover and thought how cool the cover was. I asked if Dio was Ronnie James Dio and the owner said yes. I told him “Sold!”. After my brother and I made our purchases we headed to my grandparents’s house.
    We played rock, paper, scissors to determine who chose which album to listen to first. I won. I placed the album on the turntable. I want to add that my grandma was at a neighbor's house and my grandpa was in the living room with us. We warned him that he might not like the album. He just smiled at us and said he would survive and turned back to the Popular Mechanics magazine he was reading.
    The first song, “Stand Up and Shout” came on and my brother and I jammed or in his case jellied to that song. Sorry about that, my lame attempt at little sister humor. lol Anyhoo, we liked the song. Then it was time for ”Holy Diver”. I liked the eerie slow beginning of that song. I heard my grandpa say, “Something is about to happen”, and it did. His reply, “Told ya”. During the song, I broke out into air drumming. My grandpa was tapping his foot and my brother played air guitar. We were definitely getting into this song. I was really enjoying this album. After “Caught in the Middle”, my grandpa commented on how he liked this song, especially the lyrics and Ronnie’s vocals. He said again during the beginning of “Don't Talk to Strangers”, that something is about to happen. lol
    Another song my grandpa seemed to like was “Rainbow in the dark”.
    The album continued and the three of us shared our joy of music. After the album finished, my grandpa commented on what a talented band they were. My grandpa was a musician. He played acoustic guitar, steel guitar, fiddle, and harmonica. Music was always around us. I treasure this memory and always will. Do I still feel the same way about this album? YES! It's one of my favorite albums.

    The summer of 1989 was my gateway to what was considered "modern rock" in the late 1980s, away from the music of my formative years-classic and progressive rock. The method: Simple Minds' live IN THE CITY OF LIGHT.
    I had moved away from my hometown of Atlantic City several years earlier but would come back for visits to see family and friends. On one of my visits, I went for a drive with an old bud and he was playing the said album. It was great cruising music, to say the least; but, since the Moody Blues some fifteen years earlier, nothing blew me away like this record. I recall - what is the first song on side three - DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME coming on. For years, I thought it was Billy Idol, but one of the greatest pop songs I had ever heard...Yeah, that was placing everything over the top.
    So, they were seminal moments for my music-listening career. Not only did I begin to collect Simple Minds, but also much of the 80s New Wave groups, such as Tears for Fears and Talk Talk. That took me into the jangle and Brit Pop, e.g., The Smiths and Shoegaze, which eventually swerved into IDM/Rave/Trance/House music, where I am today.
    Ode to Simple Minds and the CITY OF LIGHT. To this day, there is not a live album that touches it as far as I am concerned.
    From 1979 to the present, one of the greatest bands in the world.

    Pick #19: Rainbow's Rising. I wanna say the first time I heard this album was around Covid or when I was in Richmond, but the actual time period and place I was when I heard Rising is kind of a blur. The only very specific thing I remember about listening to the whole album was that when I had heard Stargazer for the first time it was hard not to get a bit choked up, and might be my favorite rock/metal song from the 70s, even if there's some steep competition for that title. Might not be the most in depth story but a great album nonetheless.

    In October 1973, I decided to buy an album from a man who had been around already for a bunch of years before, and got started as a very successful child performer, actually. It’s about
    STEVIE WONDER, Innervisions.
    At the time in 1973 and before, I was used watching the US and UK charts each weeks, beside of our German charts. Stevie had been very successful with songs like “Superstition” and “You Are The Sunshine Of My Life” before, especially in the US charts back then. He was not really much successful with the songs at the West European charts at the time… anyway, I liked the songs. He had a unique soulful and expressive voice, was a master on all sorts of keyboards, and even played moog bass and the drums on most of the tracks. Of course, there also is no doubt about his qualities as a writer.
    The songs “Higher Ground”, “Golden Lady”, “All In Love Is Fair”, and especially the deeper cut “Living For The City” already were on big airplay, when I decided to get the album. I also got the successor “Fulfillingness’ First Finale” later in the following year, with the popular songs “Boogie On Reggae Woman” and “You Haven’t Done Nothin’” on it.
    Stevie Wonder would become much more popular in West Europe during the 80s, having a # 1 hit with the duet piece “Ebony And Ivory”, which he sang together with Paul McCartney, and his own world wide hit “I Just Called To Say I Love You”, which also has been # 1 at a lot of countries.

    Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (CD)
    In the summer of 2010, I was introduced to Fleetwood Mac by my father he owned the Greatest Hits (1988) album on CD. I started to investigate Fleetwood Mac and delved into their catalogue but mainly I looked into the classic line-up 1975-1987/1997. As a birthday gift, I wanted the ‘Rumours’ album on CD. My dad bought for me from Best Buy. I would constantly listen to that album also bought the 1975 album around this time and Tango in the Night. After all these years, Rumours is still my favorite Fleetwood Mac album of all time.

    I was 17 in 80 and there was a cool record store here in cleveland called Shattered. The owner would have the best imports. I walked in to the store in the fall of 80 and thought i heard him playing a Black sabbath tune i never heard. He told me it was a new album by Ozzy. And that its only released in england at the moment. Blizzard of ozz. It blew me away. I grabbed the import and played the sh*it out of it. It didnt come out here until 1981, so i was able to get it way early and turn my friends on to it. I hadnt even heard Crazy Train yet when i walked into that store. I never owned the US version since i had the UK version from the start

    I used to read album reviews in music magazines. This one was record of the month in a French magazine I used to read called Best. Except for the ballad Follow you Follow me, which they used to play at school dances, I knew little about Genesis. But the critics spoke of the unusual power that this work gave off, partly due to the moment that Phil Collins was going through after his divorce. The cover was curious, and even though I was into much heavier music, I decided to break the bank and buy it. I never regretted it. The melodies, the atmospheres, the lyrics, and everything that Phil's voice conveys make this album my favorite since that day.

    Good morning (afternoon, evening or night), Pete. Another fine SoT tale. Personal story today? One of my favorite movie soundtrack albums beloved because of its time and the story that comes. The year 1969 so I was thirteen at the time. Had to have bought the album in the late fall of that year but I first heard it as part of the movie. A huge counterculture hit of its time, it was rated R because of the drugs, the nudity and likely the ending. That meant I could not get into the movie without and adult accompanying me. So my best friend - also named John - and I gathered one of our group of friends of whoever wanted to see Easy Rider - starring Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Jack Nicholson. We figured our best shot was the moms so I approached mine and had to explain to her what it was about - I stuck with guys on motorcycles riding around America - and why she had to go. She agreed to go only if my best friend's mom also went. Bottom line, we went but made the moms sit way in the back and our group of five or so sat way in the front. A great soundtrack with many favorites including Born To Be Wild and the Pusher by Steppenwolf; Wasn't Born To Follow by the Byrds and If Six Was Nine by the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Bought the soundtrack the day after seeing the movie and kept it on play. Still a great listen though definitely a soundtrack - and movie - of its day. The moms recovered nicely from their chaperone duties and politely told us it wasn't quite the movie they expected based on our description. Great fun, great moms, great movie, and outstanding soundtrack. Thanks, Pete. Looking forward to your next story.

Well, a short time later I was out looking for CDs & came across Illusions on a Double Dimple In an Antique store for $1.00 Remastered with 4 bonus tracks in near mint condition. I took one look at it & said Pete just did ranking show on the band. Got it home & after playing it a couple times. I had to have more. Wobbler was one I found at Thrift store & got it home but did not play it right away. a couple days later you did another ranking show of the band Wobbler, I played it after the show & just like Triumvirat had to have more.

    Hi everyone, today's story involves an album I've mentioned quite a few times in the past, but I make no apologies for doing so again...
    The Music For Nations record label launched in the UK in 1983, its first album released being the debut by Virgin Steel, and it quickly became celebrated for being the European launch pad for some of the biggest names in (very) heavy metal early in their careers - Metallica, Anthrax, Mercyful Fate, Manowar, Megadeth, Exodus, Loudness and Savatage all put out their earliest work on MFN.
    My friends and I were quite surprised when they announced that, in collaboration with Kerrang! Magazine scribes Derek Oliver (later to work as Dream Theater's A&R man) and Paul Suter they were to release a double album of obscure American and Canadian hard rock and AOR acts from the late 70s and early 80s who had gone largely unnoticed in the UK and Europe - and pretty much in North America too for that matter! - other than by the cognoscenti of whom I was not yet a "member".
    It was called, as I'm sure a lot of you have worked out, Striktly For Konnoisseurs and featured the likes of Angel, Legs Diamond, Max Webster, Starz, Moxy, Ram Jam and Starcastle (and they were the famous ones!), alongside more obscure artists such as Teri deSario, Reggie Kmighton, 1994, Zon, Mayday, Marcus, Tantrum etc.
    The misspellings in the name were entirely deliberate, and can be blamed on another Kerrang! writer, Xavier Russell (whose dad, by the way, was maverick film director Ken Russell, responsible for, among many others, Tommy, with The Who) - Xavier regularly peppered his articles with the letter K instead of C - Kolossal! Aktion! Magik!
    My group of musical friends had heard of hardly any of these bands, who had all pretty much vanished by the time it came out, although a few have since made sporadic comeback attempts.
    My mate Scott (he of the Majesty Demos tale) and I both bought a copy of SFK and then challenged one another to see how many of the featured band's albums we could acquire over the next year or so. Between the 25 bands featured, there were a possible (I think!!) 67 studio albums that we knew of. I was only ever able to find one album by American Tears, and was missing one each by 707, Moxy and Rex, but otherwise found all the others at record fairs and in 2nd hand vinyl shops - in Edinburgh mainly, but also in Dundee, then in London and Paris when on holiday.
    To this day, I can't remember if I beat Scott or not, especially as a few of the bands, Legs Diamond, Balance, Starcastle and Angel for certain, all got back together and released other albums over the years.
    That's it - Konsider this Kase Klosed!

    My best friend in high school, now a practicing physician, also exposed me to bands like Jefferson Airplane, which was transforming into Jefferson Starship before my eyes. "Blow Against the Empire" hit me like a ton of bricks, with Jerry Garcia, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Jack Casady, and Peter Kaukonen added to the mix. Very much a Paul Kantner concept album, it referenced books like "Stand on Zanzibar" a book by John Brunner, one of my favorite SF writers too. Perhaps a bit idealistic in its lyrical content, it is still a unique expression of a time that would soon transition into a less idealistic or science fiction-based exploration of alternative approaches to seeing the world. It seems to be my destiny to always have a doctor's son, a medical student, or something like that as an acquaintance or friend in my prior life at some time. Life can be strange.

    Led Zeppelin ... The Song Remains The Same
    When I was in my sophomore year of high school, I lived in a building with my father, where there were few young people.
    One of those few younger people who was in his mid-twenties asked me to go along with him to see the new Led Zeppelin film that was in the theaters.
    We drove out to a nearby suburb college town to an old large movie theater that could seat over 500 people for a movie.
    We parked the car and walked up to the entrance, and there was a large crowd of longhaired young men in jeans, with a smattering of women, waiting to get into the theater.
    This was one of my first exposures to "youth culture" in the seventies.
    We got into the theater. What's that smell? Is that pot? Will there be a police raid for that?
    I had only discovered FM radio the year before and its "progressive rock" stations. So Zeppelin and hard rock was still new to me.
    So, there was no police raid for the pot smokers. Consider me corrupted that evening.

    19. The Babys - Anthology
    This was my first purchase by this band. I came into them very late, in 2005. I was working overnights at a Wawa store in Pottstown, PA and the music that was piped in came from Dish Network and we mostly played the 7890 channel, which was nice because they played a bit of everything from the ‘70s to the present. One night, I heard the title track to Head First playing and I thought it was a hell of a banger. It was the first Babys song I ever remembered hearing. I knew John Waite from a couple of his solo hits, but never heard The Babys before then. I bought the Anthology CD not long after and that made me a fan of their music. It took me a while, but I eventually got all of the other albums. They are total ear candy!

The band used to cover several of the songs off this album and me and my friends would always be at the front of the stage looking like little horndogs when she strutted around in her Dale Bozzio plastic dress.

    My Day 19 pick is Of Mice & Men the debut studio album by American rock band Of Mice & Men. It was originally planned to be released on February 23, 2010, but was delayed until March 9. The album was released through Rise Records and was produced by Joey Sturgis. This is the only album to feature bassist and backing vocalist Jaxin Hall.
    Back in 2012, when I was doing research on the book of the same name I stumbled(by accident then) the name of this album and after I started to listen to this album I was like hey this is pretty good and my friends who sat next to me thought it was cool that I was getting into the Sane type of music at that point.
    the heavy reliance on harsh vocals can sometimes feel overwhelming and that the clean vocals may lack unique character. "Second & Sebring" is a standout track due to its strong melodies and showcase of clean vocals. The album is lauded for its effective combination of aggressive screams and melodic clean vocals, creating a diverse range of emotion across the tracks. The breakdowns on the album are considered particularly engaging and mosh-worthy. Today I have this album on heavy rotation in all my playlists

    In my frequent searches for new albums, in March 1979 in Unima/Sarajka department store a new (to me) album by Genesis caught my eye - Wind & Wuthering. I alredy had a previous release and as this was issued in Yugoslavia in 1977, I missed it before. How this lot came into store I do not know as Discogs does not indicate Yugoslav releases from 1978 or 1979. In exchange of 74.60 dinars (price sticker still there). Album was not spectacular like some of the earlier albums of theirs, but very atmospheric, I liked it and gladly listen to it today as well. I always associate the mood with late fall - early winter, cold weather with winds, just like the title and cover suggest.

I would get this album back in the day and it would be played and become tattered and worn. Well I don't have that copy any more. But got at record store of 2nd Time Around or was it Peaches or even Golden Rod or at record show? Somewhere back then and in February 1976 I would see DEEP PURPLE and the band and the late great Tommy Bolin late great Jon Lord and David Coverdale Glenn Hughes and legendary drummer Ian Paice. And a great show that I had gotten a poster of the band to take home. Still have. its just not up right now. Anyway yea Would end up loving this album even as it didn't have Blackmore or Gillan but Rainbow makes up for Blackmore and Gillan for his stuff too. So I seem to think it works out well connected. Back to having it I did find at record show in the late 90s or 2000s copy Near Mint as it was open where could pull out and see the record and is a Yugoslavian NM. import. So and just beautiful the gatefold and have in plastic protecting also. Love how good it is.

    Glenn does this usually on solo and other projects of You Keep On Moving. Lord and his keyboards and Ian Paice and great drums. Great delightful super song to a fine finish to a great album underrated for what it was. As a defining moment if ya ask me. The band and the last hurrah until Perfect Strangers. Do so well in how it sounded on this record and of what they would do before calling not to continue until Lord and Paice would be in Deep Purple for Mark 2 lineup Perfect Strangers and House Of Blue Light and continuing in some form as a band and great also afterwards. There ya have it, Relisten and enjoy, Take care and love hugs and prayers. Lets take care and be helpful friends. B good. Pete great choice in Accept. Balls to The Wall I picked up first for a notation here. Great choice Pete of Restless and Wild. Stay well. TC later all. 🎶🎶❤🤗🙏☮

    20. The Breeders - Pod (1990)
    The new bands slowed down for me somewhat, and felt less earth shattering, like The Jesus Lizard, who would still become a favorite via their live shows, EPs from My Bloody Valentine and Swervedriver, and Bitch Magnet's Ben Hur. I didn't mind, as I was busy deep diving into post-punk for my Fester's Bucket O' Nasties radio show, finally finding used copies of the first Comsat Angels and The Sound. My favorite new album, edging out the Fugazi and Slayer albums, was Kim Deal of the Pixies, with her new band, The Breeders. I actually got to hear it before it was officially released from my new friend Kristen, who dated my friend Jason, and was learning bass. She guested on my radio show a couple times, lent me some Crass records, and let me hear her advance copy of Pod -- she had recently moved from Boston to Mpls and was friends with Kim. I just loved the slow, airy dynamics that reminded me of Slint and Bitch Magnet, which made sense, as drummer "Shannon Doughton," as credited on the album, was actually Slint's Britt Walford. And of course the one and only Steve Albini engineered it. The memory was bittersweet, as Kristen later hung out with the Amphetamine Reptile bands with her band Janitor Joe, discovered heroin, and soon after, was discovered by Courtney Love, sealing her doom.
