    I haven’t listened to really anything all September and have been trying to play catch up. This was the first piece of new music I listened to going into October. 11, wow. It starts off with a banger, and the second song, Blues Before and After is even better. I really loved that one. Blue Period had a nice slow flow to it and the next song Baby Be Good had an upbeat Vibe to it . I really loved Room without a View. It had a nice driving bass line hidden in it. But it felt more like it should have been an album closer? Maybe it’s just me. Yesterday’s Girl and Cut Flowers flow really well, both very upbeat musically. William Wilson was also another upbeat tune. These three songs really just have that vibe of putting you in a good mood. Maria Elena, feels more generic to me. There is more going on it but it feels less somehow. But it still flows nice. Kiss Away your Tears is fantastic but I wish I the album was longer? I really loved this album. It flowed nice and it had a really nice upbeat vibe despite some dark lyrics. So far I think this is my favorite album of theirs, I just wish it was longer. I felt empty when it ended.

I never really warmed to the first trio of Thin Lizzy albums. (Except for the two big hits, of course.) l must give them another chance. I’m much more familiar with everything from Night Life to the end of their reign and rule. I think I’m looking forward to this series even more than your Smithereens one, if that’s possible.

    Hi, John! Thanks for the nice shoutout, man. That was cool and unexpected. It’s been quite awhile since I heard this Smithereens album. I really don’t recall any songs from it, but l do remember enjoying it and giving it some airplay at the record shoppe at the time. Not sure if l got a promo CD, bought it new, or waited for a used copy to get traded into the place l worked at. Who knows, l may have picked it up at our sister store where l occasionally worked. Whatever the case may be, l guess this album never hit me like the previous five did. I have to go back and check it out again. I’m still quite chuffed that you’re furrowing your own path on UA-cam, with different content than most of the usual subjects. Looking forward to future episodes in this marvelous series.

I am fairly certain that l heard “Miles from Nowhere” on Noo Yawk rock radio in 1994. We disagree on a couple of songs here, my friend. My four faves are the aforementioned “Miles from Nowhere,” “Afternoon Tea,” “Gotti” and “Sick of Seattle.” “Gotti” friggin’ RULES! The song, that is. I love the lyrics on “Sick of Seattle” and see the humor in it. Unlike the critics. Those Jackanapes from Jackaloop Junction!! I like the fact that this album has a totally different vibe than the rest of their oeuvre. It’s all about the RAWK! For the most part. I also find “Afternoon Tea” 🫖 to be charming as well. Oh well, we can’t all like the same things. It’s Eve’s fault… she ate the apple! 🍎 Bwhahahahahahaha! 🤪 Cheers 🍻 from Noo Yawk, ova heyah. Rock Out, Prog On and Pogo, yo!

    Tonic? Soundy! I like a few of your honorable mentions better than one specific main pick. But, l won’t spoil it here. 😉 May l ask why you went from 1991 to 1996? My OCD mind can’t handle - nor comprehend - this non-linear approach. Just curious, George. 🙊 ~ Your pal and mine, The Sensational Shape Shifting Superstar that is Davey Cretin, from Cretin Classics.

    Big fan of “The Mountains Win Again” from their previous platter, Mr. MusicNut. I heard all of their albums through the 80s and 90 from all my various record store gigs. BT are pretty cool - except to PP on SoT!!! - although l prefer Phish. I saw the Phishies on their Rift tour. Awesome friggin’ show! Around the same time, l think, I saw a H.O.R.D.E. tour show. I remember Big Head Todd and the Monsters on the bill, along with Blues Traveler. Did l see that show because of a hot little number at a musical promotional marketing company at the time? You bet your bippy, baby! Ahhh, 😌 the halcyon of yore… By the way, I love the different slant that you put on your channel. It’s quite unique, since you’re doing a lot of stuff from the 1990s. Very cool, keep up the stellar work! Cheers from The Big Apple. Rock Out, Prog On & Pogo! It’s my mantra 🕉️ & my logo. At the end of each & every video.

      Thanks Davey! I like Phish too and I saw them in 2016. I have a few of their abums but I don't go back to them like I do Blues Traveler. Haha, very cool! Thanks so much Davey, I appreciate it! The Wax Ecstatic, Chromatic, Vegomatic that is John the Music Nut!

    Wow. 1991. I had to go back and look up what all came out and what I knew I was listening to heavily. So, that is going to be my list here. 10. Vagabond Heart-Rod Stewart 9. Innuendo-Queen 8. Use Your Illusion 1 & 2-Guns N Roses 7. Attack of the Killer B's-Anthrax 6. Slave to the Grind-Skid Row 5. For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge-Van Halen 4. Lean Into It-Mr. Big 3. 3-D-Wrathchild America 2. No More Tears-Ozzy 1. Decade of Aggression-Slayer I wasn't listening to Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Spin Doctors, Temple of the Dog all that heavily until the following year. But these were the ones that were constantly in the tape deck in my car or my stereo at home.

    Hi John… thank you for doing this video and thank you for the shoutout ! I need to check out the later day Allman Brothers albums . I’ve never heard that Blues Traveler album. I’m only familiar with 4. Gotta find that one . Some of my favs of 91 : VH/ For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, Metallica / Black Album, Skid Row/ Slave To The Grind, U2/Achtung Baby, Ozzy/No More Tears, Aldo Nova/Blood On The Bricks , PJ/Ten and Soundgarden/Bad Motor Finger and GnR/Use Your Illusions 1&2. The Richie Sambora album is fantastic ! That Fishbone album is another I need to check out along with the Armoured Saint . Thank you John. Chez

      You're welcome and thank you Chez! Excellent picks here! I believe I have owned all of these at one time except for Aldo Nova and I always heard that's a great record. I strongly considered the Black Album from Metallica since the highs on that are so high. Yes, Reality of My Surroundings in an amazing record and the previous album, Truth and Soul, is a great one as well. Cheers!
