Broad range of questions, enjoyed listening to your answers. And no, I’ve not heard of Dana Cooper. Always something to learn from you! HNY🎉 and good music to you!
When you said "record that everybody has", I fully expected you to pull out that damn Herb Alpert "Whipped Cream & Other Delights" LOL. That record is EVERYWHERE. It even showed up in my collection, and I know I never bought it!
Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is a fantastic album and has been my favorite Genesis release. I still get the chills when Gabriel sings that he’s a fly waiting for his windshield on the freeway, and then BAM goes that mellotron and bass. Howard Hughes in blue shade shoes.
That is a magical moment. Phil Collins drumming on that record is phenomenal. Gabriel at a high peak. His vocals are amazing. So many different styles. Side 1 & 2 are two of the greatest sides ever. Perfection.
For me it's the Seventies, hands down. Prog, Acid Rock, Glam, Roots Reggae, Soul, Punk, Post-Punk, Pub Rock, New wave, 2-Tone, Krautrock, Electronica, Disco...and more probably
Found a fellow vinyl tagger! Great channel man. Capo fetish made me laugh (i love memorable names so i can actually remember people) anyway new sub & ill be back, keep on grooving your way ~mark
Interesting music chat. I confess that I didn't buy any new music in 2023 -- I simply don't have the resources to do it, and most of my equipment is old and broken down, like me. 😅 I do listen to things on UA-cam, but not much that's recent. I get a lot of CD s, old stuff, from the local library sale, dollar a disc. Oh, another confession: Morrissey's voice is like fingernails on blackboard to me. Sorry.
those are the correct 4 people to want to show up at a party from the music biz! i listened to an interview with peter case where he said he saw laura nyro play solo in 1970 or so. i've never seen a single of "bittersweet" by the hoodoo gurus and thought maybe you didn't like them as they aren't on any of your lists. i have the first joni archives set but would trade it in the blink of an eye for that one which didn't know was out. i appreciate you mentioning another version of the smith's "back to the old house" being better which i didn't believe until i actually heard it. you are a favorite channel of mine.
Happy New Year, Tom. Great video to start out the year, a survey certainly not aimed at a casual music fan. I noticed your reply to a comment concerning an album 40 years on. Doesn't it freak you out that REM music is 40 years old?
The 'Sixties in Rock: The El Lame-o Era, 1960-1963 Bad music, lame teen idols, zits, Puritan politics British Invasion, 1964-1965 America's #1 export gets a makeover We have ignition, 1965-1966 Rock comes of age Where do we go from here? 1966 Rock 'n' Roll goes mainstream Summer of Love, (late) 1966-1967 All you need is love, love, love Psychedelia, (late) 1967-1968 Space Rock meets Deep Insights Rock Good Old Rock 'n' Roll, 1969 Get Back to your roots Country Rock, (late) 1969 Acid flashbacks with a shot of Jack Daniels
In the long history of music as entertainment, it was the apex. The 'Seventies were almost as good, but a lot of it was recycling, rather than creation. In the 'Sixties, we were pushing the envelope as far as it could stretch! In the 'Seventies, Pink Floyd would take the Jimmy Page soloes that decorated so many singles to the next level, marrying them to themes that resonated in songs for aging children. "Songs to aging children come Aging children, I am one" The 'Sixties gave us full-tilt rock 'n' roll, singer-songwriters, and rock-as-catharsis. When acid was dropped into that powerful mix, it produced some of the most timeless, and some of the most will-this-never-end-?, rock of all time. @@tomrobinson5776
Hi, great response to the tag. Having just stumbled to your channel through the vinyl tag I look forward to seeing more of your videos.
I would have to also go with the 60’s.
Nice selection. Topped-off with the immortal TLLDOB. 👏🏻

Nice set of 80s picture sleeve 45s.

That’s funny. I almost chose Whipped Cream & Other Delights. 😉

The 70’s were amazing. Just as revolutionary music wise as the 60’s.
Awesome video bro
Thanks 😉

I agree with that statement 😉 It’s the guitar work and arrangements that I always loved.

Absolutely! Where did the time go?
The 'Sixties in Rock:
The El Lame-o Era, 1960-1963 Bad music, lame teen idols, zits, Puritan politics
British Invasion, 1964-1965 America's #1 export gets a makeover
We have ignition, 1965-1966 Rock comes of age
Where do we go from here? 1966 Rock 'n' Roll goes mainstream
Summer of Love, (late) 1966-1967 All you need is love, love, love
Psychedelia, (late) 1967-1968 Space Rock meets Deep Insights Rock
Good Old Rock 'n' Roll, 1969 Get Back to your roots
Country Rock, (late) 1969 Acid flashbacks with a shot of Jack Daniels
The most radical decade in music.

Unfortunately for us 1974 is 50 years on, not 40.
Oooops!
Let’s go with Reckoning by REM 😉
James Brown was good for music but not for his wives 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😂😂😂😂😂
