Another interesting video Chris. Great to see the Bunnymen, one of the best live bands I have ever seen, delighted and surprised to see The Crusaders as that is right up my street although I haven't got that album yet (on my list though). I was a classmate of Dennis Greaves' from Nine Below Zero's cousin, he was my best mate in junior school and I remember him lending the album in senior school as he was a bit of a celeb having a cousin who had made a record. My favourite though is the David Crosby. Alas I only have it on cd but it is one of my favourite albums. I was sharing a flat with a mate in the late 90's and we played that album and all the other Crosby, Stills and Nash combinations and solo records, plus The Byrds almost constantly for about a year. It has a very special place in my heart and Traction In The Rain is a masterpiece in my opinion. It is good to go back to stuff you haven't played for ages, something I have been doing lately with my Blue Note and Prestige jazz albums. Look forward to the next one. Cheers.
@@marklancaster6558 would love to have seen Echo. Need to revisit crusaders more. Really enjoyed Southern Comfort. Less keen on David Crosby mind. I need to revisit so much in my collection cheers Mark. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment
some great albums, been revisting my collection a lot both vinyl and CDs, no end of times ive said wow forgot how good that was, got that nine below zero album and others on CD going to listen to rhat again now and that buddy guy album, love canned heat and tom petty, cheers chris
Really enjoyed this Chris. Lot of LPs, in fact lots of bands, I’m not familiar with but with give them all a try. I had my hands on the Crusaders album you talk about the other week but the condition of the cover let it down. The production on most of the Crusaders albums is first rate so will look forward to buying this one in the near future. Alex Harvey was one of my favourite bands/performers in my late teens. “Framed” was much more bluesy than the later stuff as they developed into the rock pantomime band. His is a great story and someone who we lost much too soon. Any road up thanks again for this great video. Give me a week to try out a few of these albums and then do another 10 perhaps? Cheers.
The Pop Group's debut album was called 'Y'' on the Radar label. A classic Bristol alternative band. I recommend the single 'Beyond Good and Evil' (which you probably already know)."it has been said "thier music is as chaotic and meaningless as the Universe we live in".
Recently bought The Stooges 1969 debut in excellent condition, been chasing that album for a while. Also bought Cardiiacs debut Big Ship, if you haven’t heard it before then check it out.
So good to see Stationary Traveller get some attention , love that album and saw them live on that tour . Some wonderful emotive Andy Latimer playing as always and as you say great punchy production.
Walked to the top of my stairs and grabbed a few out a dusty box Alexander Spence - Oar Howard Devoto - Jerky versions of the dream Stanley Krubrick - Clockwork orange Masami Tsuchiya - Rice music ( with Bill Nelson and members of Japan) Vangelis - Albedo 0.39 Dorothy Provine - Roaring 20s Rodriguez - Cold fact Lou Reed - Metal machine music Tommy Bolin - Private eyes Gang of four - Solid gold Blue Cheer- Blitzkrieg over Nuremberg CCS - Best band in the land And that is enough.
Like a bit of Graham Parker, The Rumour were a quality band. I was at a gig a few months back & the band struck up Pigbag, they nailed it, crowd went nad & i was 15 again. Knew about it next morning 😂 Cheers Chris
Tardy reply here... apologies! I often overlook albums as some have a tendency to 'stick' together in the racks. However last week I refound the punk funkers The Higsons... ( checkout the song Conspiracy) good albums! Many thanks, Ian.
Chris great choices! About 5 I haven't got but Dictators 9 below zero bunnymen tom petty Alex Harvey! Great stuff I struggle Camel people have tried convincing me but can't get into them! I love the variety like my collection I've said before when your rock fan mates say how can you like this S**t I know I'm on a winner great stuff as usual!👍
@@thevinylorchard I foolishly back in the late 70's bought the Rolling Stone record guide the red cover! Hatred of anything different Kate Bush compared to a vacuum cleaner etc! I digress they hated this Dictators album! Oh I bought a later edition of Rolling Stone record guide hilarious as this time as they found out Springsteen was on the album it got 4 stars and was classed as a good album! And Kate Bush was now up there with Peter Gabriel! Never really liked Rolling Stone magazine! It was Sounds for me 😆
Hi Chris, Nine Below Zero, what a band. The more I saw them on TV the more I got to like them. O.T.T. Old Grey Whistle Test and who can forget them on The Young Ones. I saw Echo and the Bunnymen, really good live even though they were drunk. Dome really good choices. Cheers.
Some really good albums there love echo and the bunnymen crocodiles a darn neat perfect album the sensational Alex Harvey band I like them and next is a great album but definitely not for everyone and Graham Parker massive fan of his music the up escalator is my favorite album of his
Stumbled across this video, and glad I did. I always wanted to like the David Crosby album: I love CSN&Y, and there are members of the Grateful Dead here too, which is an inestimable plus point in my book. But the album is just a bit dreary and self-indulgent really.

Man you are a joy to watch!
Wowsers ! That’s very kind of you to say that. Thank you
Love the live Nine below Zero LP, Ridding on the L&N is my favourite.
@@TheMecanician great fun isn’t it!

Thanks for watching and commenting Stephen. I intend to revisit a lot of my collection. So much to get reacquainted with. Cheers, Chris
Some of these I don’t know the dictators album I will definitely check out somewhere thanks for another great video Chris please keep posting them 🙏
@@stevewatson2026 stay with Me by the dictators is a brilliant track.
Thanks, Chris, Nine Below Zero were in the guest-band slot in an episode of The Young Ones', the classic comedy series.
@@nickcooper1260 remember that. Loved that programme. Remember Motörhead on that too

Will think about making this a fairly regular thing possible. Cheers

@@nickcooper1260 ah that’s where the Y came from!

Unique for sure. But undecided if it’s really for me.
Recently bought The Stooges 1969 debut in excellent condition, been chasing that album for a while.
Also bought Cardiiacs debut Big Ship, if you haven’t heard it before then check it out.
Will check out cardiacs. Thank you. Stooges elude me bar Raw Power
So good to see Stationary Traveller get some attention , love that album and saw them live on that tour . Some wonderful emotive Andy Latimer playing as always and as you say great punchy production.
Much better than the few before it IMO
Nice stuff Chris

Got a couple of singles by then, including one on stiff.
Not stiff, but two tone!

Camel are an acquired taste. That Lp is less proggy. Stay with me by Dictators is immense

Great Crusaders album. I've tried with SAHB but can't get into them. Love Crocodiles...
Need to revisit a few more of the Crusaders LPs. I have loads! SAHb. Hmmm. Really not sure they’re for me
