So interesting story on ELO, when I went to see Utopia live and they played Do Ya, I knew it was an ELO song, but I remember that Utopia played it live since 1974, which didnt make sense to me because ELO didnt release the song until 1976.

 

I thought that Do Ya was actually a cover song of Utopia. Then I realised that Do Ya was actually a single by the band The Move. So I thought many bands covered that song, but to find out Jeff Lynne was actually in The Move for a period of time and made the song for them, which he then re recorded for ELO.

 

Just interesting to see.

 

 

 

And because of this I discovered The Move which is a really good band which I recommend

I recently got Do Ya into our band setlist. Really fun to play, as the crowd tends to love it.

Thats awesome, it is a really catchy short song. I would love to see your version of it!

Chicago -

 

Chicago Transit Authority - recorded January 1969

Chicago - recorded August 1969

I would say cheating, but who cares. What amazing albums, and both double lp's.

Judas Priest - Stained Class / Killing Machine (1978)

 

I had Killing Machine in my head as 79 for some reason. Dang, great year for Priest, and what progress too! Stained Class is my fav, but Killing Machine shows they had far more to them than what met the eye on the last four records. British Steel a couple years later made that obvious which Killing Machine had demonstrated.

 

You're both right actually. Killing Machine was released in the UK in late 1978 and in the US in early 1979. Either way, they got two great albums done in a short span of time.

Yea it does get confusing sometimes like Black Sabbath was 70 but paranoid was released 70 in UK but 71 in US

I forgot about Frank Zappa, my 2 favorites by him

Frank Zappa - Uncle Meat / Hot Rats

VDGG - Still Life/World Record

Dont forget The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other and H to He, Who Am the Only One also!

I would never buy one of his books, considering how he treats his fans. No one ever told him not to bite the hand that feeds.

 

 

 

Come to think of it, those two and Masked Rider and Ghost Rider were all presents so I’ve never actually bought a Peart book.

 

Wow. Someone really hates you...

 

Yeah yeah yeah. Someone hates me.

 

Peart hates us all.

 

Peart hates you.

 

You hate Peart.

 

What do you want now that you have it all?

 

I'm craving a bagel right now...

What kind?

Rules:

1. No Rush (because I hate them)

2. As said in title, studio albums so not 1 studio and one live or compilation albums

3. Have fun

Some that come to mind

Yes - The Yes Album / Fragile

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath / Paranoid

Queen - Queen II / Sheer Heart Attack

Well damn...replaying Signals and it is actually pretty fantastic!

 

Another album I got wrong. Happy days!

Good to see you changed your ways. I used to think the debut was pretty horrible, but listening to it again it is a pretty solid album.

1. Hemispheres

2. Caress of Steel

3. Permanent Waves

4. Moving Pictures

5. Signals

Top 2 are pretty consistent other than that everything changes

it's a bit early to tell atm

 

But if you've already heard Firepower than no it isn't.

I have and while it's certainly a top 3 album (so far), the year is still far from over.

I agree, when Rush's new album comes out this year, and they have their 2018 tour live album, those will be the top 2

One of the greatest singers of all time, what a voice she had.

Rest in Peace :(

Oh boy, I have some to share. Per Un Amico is one of the best out there.

 

I love listening to very psychedelic and space like music, and these are great from Italy.

 

Maybe not beginning points for Italian prog, but worth listening to eventually 100%

Will check the others out as well.

One of their most underrated songs to me, what a jam. How I wish I could have seen them live at this time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkJcZVwyISU

I have said this many times, I will say it again.

Their first 5 albums to me are flawless and some of the best Jazz Rock albums you will ever find.

Terry Kath is one of the most underrated guitar players of all time, and if he was alive longer could have been known as one of the greatest of all time

(I mean even Jimi Hendrix said that Terry was a better guitar player than he was)

Poem 58 is also another one I would go with

Terry yet again is ruthless on it.

I still think he is one of the most overlooked guitar players ever

25 or 6 to 4

This version, I mean just look at Terry on the guitar, it is brutal

sir lord baltimore

leaf hound

bang

capt beyond

Captain Beyond is an amazing album, I havent listened to the others though

I had this album in '71?

I will check all of it out thanks!

Another band named T2 who made an amazing album in 1970 called "It Will All Work Out In Boomland"

This is for me to remember some really good heavy metal albums of the late 60s and early 70s

Feel free to give me some that you know also and I recommend listening to what I post also!

First is High Tide, they released 2 albums from 1969-1970 then later in the 80s.

Next is Lucifers Friend and they released many albums
