What Are You Listening To?

[SteveO]

Oh my my Crazy - Horse ! I love this album ! One of his best....a lot of his music deteriorated after this one...too many smaltsie kissy kissy love songs and then his career as a crooner...not my bag ! Has anyone heard his new album TIME yet ? I'm hoping it's a Faces ish album !



Faces _ A Nod is as Good as a Wink to a Blind Man *****...this album is a rock classic !

ROD STEWART "every picture tells a story" cd,1971

one of Rod's earliest albums...
many people rate this as his best...not me!, to be Frank,i cant see what people see in it...especially when half of the tracks are cover versions...????
'thats all right"...abysmal cover of the Elvis Sun Records classic!, "tomorrow is a long time", a Dylan cover,which i simply dont like by whoever records it(including Elvis!)
"reason to believe"...the classic Tim Hardin song...i do like this one by whoever does it, and it is my pick of the tracks on here...even beating the so-called classic "maggie may",which i like also,but radio still overkills that one down this way...incidently, this song was the a-side to the single with "maggie may" back in the day but i guess radio stations,for reasons known only to them, flipped the record over and started playing "maggie may"...in a not dissimilar fashion to what happened with KISS with "detroit rock city" backed with the classic "beth" also!
a few rockers on here, a few ballads also, but this is probably close,if not, the worst Rod Stewart album i own i think!
