henry4841 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 You are missing "Lush Life". Not one of my favorites being that to me it does not seem to be recorded as good as the other two. Great songs though and worthy of picking up. I scratched the copy I had for years, dropped it, but found an unopened one on Ebay at a good price. They are out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1290 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Cream splits in mid-68 yet Clapton, Winwood (Spencer Davis Group then Traffic), Baker and Rick Grech became Blind Faith. A short but amazing run! Whew, ELP in their 1970 debut lp? Straight to #4 in the UK and #18 on Billboad's top 200 lp's. "Lucky Man" hit #48 as a single in the US. Such a great prog/rock lp. Always a favorite. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 That Blind Faith album cover was really rare in Canada. I’ve only ever seen pictures of it, since we usually got the alternative cover, the black and yellow one. Meanwhile, I’m spinning T.Rex’s Electric Warrior. That was a really popular album in Canada, but I’ve heard that T.Rex was not as well known in the US. Is Marc Bolan well known to you guys? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had at least one hit that was on the airwaves constantly back in the 70s. Wouldn't call them obscure from my perspective but I have forgotten the song. Too much substance abuse on my part probably. Bet I could sing along once I find it! 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the stir here in the US and Europe over that one.

Dave1290 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Satuday right? Chillin now with "The Long Run." Survivin so far! French doors are open. Is that a block party or do we all have to have Heineken's and glassy eyes? 😂 Me thinks @JohnJ must be watching his "boys" play a real tough competitor in Wake Forest. 17-0 with 10 minutes left in the first half. Seriously? I'm thinkin 41-7 for a final. They're soft as marshmallow's... 😂 🤣 😂 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Got a more mellow Carlos Santana here but the guitar and percussion that we know is his isn't absent from this one. Like a lower the lights after dinner and a movie LP! The cover doesn't have ink on it so the label got the pic 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
