New man to this site, and I love it! Hadda start a topic: (A little bit easy and lame, but

The ones I used to play all the time (which I still have and I'm sure they are all scratched up) were:

(no order)

Styx-Grand Illusion
Jethro Tull-Songs From the Wood
Billy Joel-The Stranger
Rick Wakeman-Journey to the Centre of the Earth (IMO-a masterpiece)
Bob Dylan-Desire


Most of them I have since got on CD-with the exception of Rick Wakeman (which reminds me that I need to).

Wow! Max W. and the Clash! I'm a one of the biggest Clash fans; it was a toss up between first Clash & L.C.  I went with #1 due to its more raw edge and less pop music aim. (Still one of the best live shows EVER at  Buffalo NY's Bills Stadium, in what in i'm guessing was 1979?; the Who played this bill too...ho- hum)  But- Max Webster was a long forgotten band; and,that was a back then favorite ("No Matches.... No Cigarettes" dontcha just love this old stuff?).... that, listen to this! I live in western NY near Niagara Falls, and, when in high school,  one of my best friends had a cousin "Ralph" that lived in Toronto (home base of Kim Mitchell and MW) whom was good friends with a bandmember of MW! Anyway, we got the royal treatment (backstage, hotel suite invite, etc). They (MW) were the warm up act for Rush for a couple of tours. I had the privelage of meeting all M.W. members PLUS Geddy, Eric, and Neal on TWO occasions! Brings to mind one of the best shows I've seen from that era in Niagara Falls NY that Kim got for myself and friend first row seats (even though they were not the warm up bandr): Uriah Heep as warm up, with Rush headlining. It was sad to me that U.H. were misunderstood and got boooos  and trash thrown from the audience after 4 or 5 songs; BUT...  Mick Box saiid with complete and total (plus justified) pride :  "F*** You"  and walked off stage. I was dissappointed to not see the whole UH show, I still like them, but Rush from row one was a great experience! (I can't, but does anybody know what LP tour this was in maybe 1979 when the current Rush LP had a puppet on the cover of their new release?)

um, anyway, sorry...

'70s vinyl. as you were.

hey this journey to the center of the earth -- is it live or is there a studio version? on amazon it all seems to be live versions with DVD video... but if it's a rip off a studio original, the original is what i wanna get...

Cat, I have to agree with you, Rick wakeman's Journey To The Center Of The Earth
is a masterpiece along with Criminal Record and The Six wives Of Henry VIII




I have the Six Wives of Henry VIII and didn't like it as much. But that is just my opinion.


this is rick wakeman from yes? i'll have to check that out. (on CD! i'm guessin'.) i love rick wakeman.


Yes, he is from Yes.  ;D

The one I have is a live version. It is EXCELLENT. Like I said, IMO it is truly a masterpiece.
