Jackson Browne - Lives In the Balance

When this album came out it was all over the airwaves and I got tired of it. Much later I picked up the CD for $2 in a jumble sale at Fairday, and realised I had forgotten how good it was.

loved these guys
the hits anyway
if this Rhino compilation is any indication
their albums had a lot of filler
about half of these 20 are worth having

A trivium: the first ever commercial recording of a Bob Lind song was by the Turtles. It was called "(Nobody Smokes Marijuana) Down in Suburbia". this was a little controversial at the time, and The turtles dropped the reference to maryjane and just called it "Down In Suburbia."

Also (you probably knoew this already), two of the Turtles, the guys who nickname themselves Flo and Eddie, ended up as session backing vocalists and worked with, of all people, Frank Zappa, among others.

Greg's Gotta Dance by Tallahassee - a little known track but certainly the pinnacle of their work.

Joni Mitchell - Shine

Golden Earring - Moontan - Yes I know Radar Love has been played to death but there are some other absolute gems on this album. Takes me back.

Mike Oldfield - Incantations

Much better, in my opinion, than Tubular Bells.

Jethro Tull - Heavy Horses - my late father's favourite album out of my old (and long gone) vinyl collection - when I went out as a teenager I would come back from whatever nonsense I had got up to the previous night to find him listening to this - this was his favourite track - complete with vinyl crackle and all - turn the volume up! https://youtu.be/tI0yw8mFuoA?list=RDtI0yw8mFuoA

Snowy White – I’ve been noticing his playing on other artist’s albums, and seeing his name all over the place lately. As serendipity will have it, stumbled upon his debut album yesterday (vinyl), White Flames, at a ridiculous price. Anyone remember this?
