Rick N. Backer Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Lately I've been mostly listening to Apple Music Essentials of artists I wouldn't place near my favorites list, often based on things people post here. Today it was John Mellencamp, The Doobie Brothers and Pat Benatar. In the recent past, I listened to Rod Stewart, Jackson Browne, Joe Jackson, and Peter Gabriel. They are a great feature of Apple Music. Footnote: Peter Gabriel does nothing for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Its why I get very vocal about my love for 2000s post-nu metal metal and onwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However side 2 of Piece Of Mind feels like B-side material to me. Quest For Fire is maybe my least favourite Maiden song of the eighties. Sun And Steel not far behind. Exactly!! Side 1of Piece of Mind and the first song on side 2 are great. The rest of side 2 of Piece of Mind I basically skip. Powerslave though, when I listen to it, I never skip a song.

Yes doesn't want him. They'd rather have their cover singer. If I remember correctly, Rick Wakeman even offered to rejoin if they hired Anderson and they still turned them down! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefox4000 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Boz Scaggs-Middle Man (9/10) I mostly get stuck on Silk Degrees. but this album's fire too. Most of the guys from Toto return here and this is honestly Toto IV done a year prior to Toto IV but i like the songwriting a ton better. (granted it's boz. but he did it better here.......deal with it Toto IV stans, lol) Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
