Worked from home again today so back to whatever vinyl came out of the moving box.  First out:

 

Led Zeppelin - Presence

 

A Zeppelin boot recorded at Kezar stadium in San Francisco on 6/2/73.  I may not be big into Zeppelin now but I went though a stage in my early 20's when I was into them and collected a bunch of their stuff.  The set list consists of:

 

Rock & Roll

Celebration Day

Black Dog

Over The Hills & Far Away

The Song Remains The Same

The Rain Song

Misty Mountain Hop

Stairway to Heaven

Communication Breakdown

The Ocean

Heartbreaker

Whole Lotta Love

 

Good album.  Next out of the box:

 

Judas Priest - Metal Gods

 

A boot of their show in Memphis, Tennessee in 1982.  Its not the entire show - that I got latter on DVD.  But its still excellent.  The songs on the album consist of:

 

The Hellion / Electric Eye

Riding the Wind

Heading Out To The Highyway

Metal Gods

Bloodstone

Breaking The Law

Diamonds & Rust

Screaming 4 Vengeance

You've Got Another Thing Coming

The Sinner

 

Next out of the box:

 

Live Cream Volume II

 

This was released in 1972.  I listened to Volume I a while back and I remembered I had this and that it was much better.  My memory was correct.  Its excellent.  Way better than Volume I.  Don't believe it was recorded all at 1 show however.  The set list consists of:

 

Deserted Cities of the Hear

White Room

Politician

Tales of Brave Ulysses

Sunshine of Your Love

Hideaway

 

Last out ofmthe box for the day:

 

Warlock - Triumph & Agony

 

Tremendous album cover art (both on the front cover and the back cover).  Plus it has the amazing "All We Are".  The rest of the songs on the album do nothing for me though.  But the cover art and "All We Are" make it work owning.

I actually put like a couple hours between these, lol. I only went to Panic because something made me think of Time To Dance and it got stuck in my head, also I was working late and needed something with pep.

For me bands like Panic and FoB's rise signalled the ruination of a genre I loved. I struggle with all those bands to be honest, because everything I loved about the genre lost itself in the mainstream. The older bands I still love never seemed to get the same recognition once the garbage rose to the top.

I think the issue is they’re really not playing the same style of music, but they got the same name. I love them dearly, but I can see how someone who fell in love with Diary at 16 would feel sick over I Write Sins Not Tragedies becoming a torchbearer song for “Emo.”  Now, I’m more partially to Haley Williams “everything is emo” philosophy than not, but even if everything is emo, there must be different kinds, because even the path from The Photo Album to Folie A Duex is anything but a straight line.

i think Music fans just have a hard time wirh shifting styles in general.  Especially where fav bands and genres are concerned.  I'm not calling people out i've been upset when a band or genre settles in a direction i can't follow.

 

some music fans might say i'll follow wherever but i don't buy that, lol.  if you don't like a style it's gonna bug you on some level.  Like me and swift......i call myself a fan and can't lie the sound she's settled on kinda ticks me off cause i want to rave about her.....but this ain't it for me sister:laugh:

The genre for me really died a death. But the bands and albums I love still exist for me to enjoy, and there have been some genuine gems released over the years.  The band Moose Blood for one.

In my case it had a birth. I probably don’t go listen to Clarity and Bleed American and Futures without you prodding me to look at what inspired Paramore and Panic and FOB.

that was my point or part of it.

 

we need to be more sympathetic that a lot of liking music iss perspective too.

 

like i didn't come to mastodon till late and i think Remission and Leviathan stink (sorry Segue I think so, lol)

 

i didn't come up in the scene it came from.  Good chance if i did i may be marching around with Leviathan on my shoulders.....but i didn't and i don't, lol

Largely how I feel about beloved bands like Metallica...I get their heyday and how revered they are, but in context I don't find their thrash metal anywhere close to the best I've heard.

in my recent metallica revisit i found i loved reload more than i remember.

 

and 72 seasons grew on me big time.  it is too long but there are straight bangers on it.

 

and the Black alum on this revisit has become one of my fav albums of the 90's.  Don't know what i was thinking  but it deserves all the praise it gets.

 

HOWEVER my fav remains from the Thrash era,  Master of Puppets.

 

Masterpiece.

Worked from home part of the day (then had to run some errands) which gave me yet another chance to dig into my vinyl.  Fist out of the box:

 

Uriah Heep - Head First

 

Not bad.  Not terrible.  Not very good either.  Just ok.  A bunch of ok songs.  Part of my Heep collection  - I went through a phase in my mid 20's when I was into them and collected a bunch of their stuff.  Next out of the box:

 

Jackson Brown - Lawyers in Love

 

The title track is good.  "Tender is the Night" is very good.  The rest is filler (IMO).  Last out of the box:

 

Scorpions - World Wide Live

 

Never got to see The Scorpions - one of the bands I wanted to see and just never got to see.  Pitty.  Their big hits ("Bad Boys Running Wild", "Big City Nights", "Still Loving You", "No One Like You", Rock You Like a Hurricane") are excellent.  Like them a lot.  Their other material is mostly filler for me.  Perhaps if I had seen them live I might like their other material a lot more.  Good album in a way - I love the sound and energy of the crowds (it was recorded at multiple locations - never a plus for me as I prefer live albums recorded basically at one location but here it works).  Really like the songs I like but the rest don't do a ton for me.
