    Salut Craig. Great band and great albums even love is for suckers. My favorite album is You can't stop rock'n'roll. I never saw them Live.😭

    Thanks for sharing your collection. They're not holding any spots in my collection but hearing about you seeing them with bands you weren't interested in ( at the time) reminds me when I saw Jeff Beck and I didn't know the mahavishnu orchestra with John McLaughlin 😊. I really got a dose of jazz fusion and Beck came out to join in. Twisted Sister and Cinderella, were 2 bands I couldn't get past the names 😊. Great video. Greg

    You have a great pressing of The Best of the Animals, later pressings used different mixes because the masters were lost, and the later pressings sound awful! I stumbled upon on your channel, the YT algorithm suggested it. Nice video and cool thread.

    It's all good, I thought maybe it was a typo😆Yes we are close to the same age, I'm a 1969 model, I live in Tennessee but have only been here about 3 years, so a little southern accent mixed with some mid western U.S. accent, you're not the first to ask where the accent comes from.

    Hey Craig! Thanks for the shout out! The first 3 Rainbow albums are essential, everything after that is for completest, which I am. I can probably say the same about the first 3 Queen albums. When I was in a band we used to play "Matriarch." It's okay to say something sucks, I just don't tell people they suck for liking it. 200 is right around the corner. Cheers!

    I dig Santanic Majesties for the very reason people diss it - it’s a bit all over the place. It’s a perfect reflection of Brian Jones at the time. It could of been a classic album had they added Child of the Moon, We Love You and Dandelion & then removed the 9 minute sing this all together.

    At times I cannot believe those albums are 40 years old! All records I either have, or certainly heard. Very much like you, Thompson Twins, Culture Club, bands we referred to as "prep" crap, I never gave a fair shake. Nowadays I find I have softened to allow more diversity...some! Lol! Love most Nazareth but checked out after Malice In Wonderland in 1980, but I have heard that one. Pales in comparison to their 70's output imho. I think lots of people associate Bush with Anthrax hence the Thrash connection, but Armored Saint were always just straight up hard rock/heavy metal to my friends and I. Solid picks from 84 Craig. Hope you enjoyed the July 4 festivities and weekend man. Cheers bud! 🍻✌️🤘🎶🤘
