from my library



The debut from one of the best selling groups of all time. Formed in L.A. in 1971 they would come to define the sound of classic rock, whatever that is.The four founding members were actually from different states in the midwestern part of the country, and had all moved to L.A. to seek their fame. I was not a huge fan in the beginning, but a few of these tracks have grown on me over the years. Never was crazy for the two biggest hits of Take It Easy and Witchy Woman which reached #12 and #9 respectively. I preferred the peaceful easy feeling of Peaceful Easy Feeling. The album reached #22. The bands country influences are apparent here, but that was quickly abandoned for the greener pastures of rock 'n' roll. The band has called it quits twice. Too bad they have to keep coming back.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Tryin'

Best Track - Train Leaves Here This Morning

I lost ten points just for being in the right place
At exactly the wrong time
I looked right at the facts there
But I may as well have been completely blind
So if you see me walking all alone
Don't look back, I'm just on my way back home
There's a train leaves here this morning
And I don't know what I might be on
She signed me to a contract
Baby said it would all be so life long
I looked around then for a reason
When there wasn't something more to blame it on
But if time makes a difference while we're gone
Tell me now and I won't be hanging on
There's a train leaves here this morning
And I don't know what I might be on
1320 north columbus was the address
That I wrote down on my sleeve
I don't know just what she wanted
Might have been that it was getting time to leave
And I watched as the smoker passed it on
And I laughed when the joker said, "lead on."
Cause there's a train leaves here this morning
And I don't know, what I might be on
And there's train leaves here this morning
And I don't know, what I might be on

Listenin' to Them Crooked Vultures' (TCV) 'Scumbag Blues'.

TCV sounds good so far, just about as the interesting line-up would suggest.

Album #3, the first with the lineup that we all know, Gabriel, Collins, Hackett, Rutherford and Banks. The theatrical side of Gabriel breaks out when touring for this album with The Musical Box being a crowd pleaser. Clip #1 is just superb. This album did not even chart in rhe U.S. and only reached #39 in the U.K. It was my introduction to a group which, while yet to reach it's potential, would become one of my favs for a brief time. Prog rock at its finest.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Harold The Barrel

Best Track - The Musical Box

Play me Old King Cole
That I may join with you,
All your hearts now seem so far from me
It hardly seems to matter now.

And the nurse will tell you lies
Of a kingdom beyond the skies.
But I am lost within this half-world,
It hardly seems to matter now.

Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.

Just a little bit,
Just a little bit more time,
Time left to live out my life.

Play me my song.
Here it comes again.
Play me my song.
Here it comes again.

Old King Cole was a merry old soul,
And a merry old soul was he.
So he called for his pipe,
And he called for his bowl,
And he called for his fiddlers three.

But the clock, tick-tock,
On the mantlepiece -
And I want, and I feel, and I know, and I touch,
the wall

She's a lady, she's got time,
Brush back your hair, and let me get to know your face.
She's a lady, she is mine.
Brush back your hair, and let me get to know your flesh.

I've been waiting here for so long
And all this time has passed me by
It doesn't seem to matter now
You stand there with your fixed expression
Casting doubt on all I have to say.
Why don't you touch me, touch me,
Why don't you touch me, touch me,
Touch me now, now, now, now, now...
