Full Range Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 Alternating to Emerson Lake & Palmer This album is slightly focused in the commercial sphere but still has brilliant tracks like " Memoirs of an officer and Gentleman " The cover shows some good looking lads - to snare the girls I'm sure ( probably someone from the record label chose it ? Who knows ) A little underrated by some but it's a lovely album none the less Artist - Emerson Lake & Palmer Title - Love Beach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pretty big departure from their previous output, much to the disappointment of their proggy fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comay Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 My sister and I wore this 45 out when we were kids. A condo made of stone-a. This is one of the items I picked up at the shop last week. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 Alternating to YES again This is considered a de facto debut album as the band lost a founding member guitarist Peter Banks With this album, the new band lineup hit a period of imagination and experimentation for what was to come They delivered a solid original material album ( pre Rick Wakeman ) Atrist - YES Title - The Yes Album 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 I picked this record up at the record fair today Funny story about the song and record title made famous by this band Story is that the band was so stoned when recording this album that they could not pronounce the words In the garden of Eden - instead singing - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida This is the only release that has the full length version of - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida - to my understanding Artist - Iron Butterfly Title - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWSmith Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Good morning / evening everyone.................nice prog rock theme going there Paul I picked up some 45's a few houses down from our shop a couple days ago... They were on a front lawn with a carcass of a turn table a printer and some kind of room fan/filter device. I went the the 45's and took home two well known classics... I found that the COLUMBIA label on a 45 has FOUR 'eyes'...! OK, this was my second LP pick for last night's closing on Telarc and was a $5 special at my local vinyl shop... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWSmith Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 ..............and then, I was VERY saddened, as just before I took this photo and while on that very same little wooden photo stand, I tried to blow a little fuzz off the LP.... Well, I ended up blowing a bit too strongly, and the LP fell over and onto the table SIDE TWO DOWN... I though OH NO! As this recording WAS pristene! I turned it over cautiously, and sure enough, there were NEW gouges on it from the corner of the HINGE on the little stand. Here is the photo after I picked up the LP and tried again, knowing that I had damaged it........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 ....then on to SIDE TWO, which indeed revealed the damaged grooves everytime it hit the stylus, and that was in two places, lasts about 20 seconds for each............really a shame, as this LP was signed by Fennell himself back in 1981 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Sorry Gary! Proof it can happen to the really good ones. If I had known my records were going to live so long, I would have taken better care of them. Somehow managed to break my young dudes album by just drying off the vinyl after cleaning in the wind. Too thin. Anothrer time put an album down for just a second and then trod right across it. Dang near cried. It was a collectible Yardbirds. Feel the pain... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
