Vocalist Paul Rodgers is one of the top UK vocalists in that genre, and the band are pretty sharp, too. Paul Kossoff was no mean guitarist either, but sadly succumbed to substance abuse at a young age. This album demonstrates the band's huge versatility, and is a delight...

![[Image: 200px-Rubber_Soul.jpg]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Rubber_Soul.jpg/200px-Rubber_Soul.jpg) Not much to say about this beauty. My favorite Beatles album, and likewise with many of our members, as indicated in our poll thread. This is their 6th release, and of course #1 on both sides of the pond. I LOVE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - Michelle Best Track - Girl Is there anybody going to listen to my story All about the girl who came to stay? She's the kind of girl you want so much It makes you sorry Still you don't regret a single day. Ah girl Girl When I think of all the times I've tried so hard to leave her She will turn to me and start to cry; And she promises the earth to me And I believe her After all this time I don't know why Ah girl Girl She's the kind of girl who puts you down When friends are there, you feel a fool. When you say she's looking good She acts as if it's understood. She's cool, ooh, ooh, ooh, Girl Girl Was she told when she was young that pain Would lead to pleasure? Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn His day of leisure? Will she still believe it when he's dead? Ah girl Girl 1) Drive My Car - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MapMPHJObO8 2) Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGufQk9QOdM 3) You Won't See Me - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsrQgIQSQSw 4) Nowhere Man - *** - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRv34Cat3Vw 5) Think For Yourself - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AzkhSJkx7GY 6) The Word - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E43weiALkao 7) Michelle - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKvee-w0uBc 8) What Goes On - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5yvezZTPMM 9) Girl - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZshCZndWmco 10) I'm Looking Through You - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nGVaLkCQAg 11) In My Life - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukbbPJirTaE 12) Wait - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6O5w5h2T87c 13) If I Needed Someone - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCNqHIKJ4wk 14) Run For Your Life - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab4I1MAaK-c Rating - 2.7

It's a mixed up sensation this being alive Oh! it wears a man down into the ground It's the strangest elation I can't describe it Oh it leaves a man weary It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

This one never even hit the charts, with 3 singles not cracking the top 50. A later release of this album included a version of Shilo that was a semi-hit, but that's not on mine. Closest thing to a hit was Brooklyn Roads which is also my favorite. Controversial at the time was The Pot Smokers Song. It is actually an anti-pot song, with some stupid chorus by Neil overlayed by spoken testimonials of how pot is a gateway drug. Cute, but I can testify the opposite. Personalities I guess. I LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - The Pot Smokers Song Best Track - Brooklyn Roads If I close my eyes I can almost hear my mother Callin, neil, go find your brother Daddys home, and it's time for supper Hurry on And I see two boys Racin up two flights of staircase Squirmin into papas embrace And his whiskers warm on their face Wheres it gone Oh, wheres it gone Two floors above the butcher First door on the right Life filled to the brim As I stood by my window And looked out on those Brooklyn roads I can still recall The smell of cookin in the hallways Rubber drying in the doorways And report cards I was always Afraid to show Mamad come to school And as I'd sit there softly crying Teacherd say, he's just not trying Hes got a good head if he'd apply it But you know yourself Its always somewhere else I built me a castle With dragons and kings And I'd ride off with them As I stood by my window And looked out on those Brooklyn roads Thought of going back But all I'd see are strangers faces And all the scars that love erases But as my mind walks thru those places Im wonderin What's come of them Does some other young boy Come home to my room Does he dream what I did As he stands by my window And looks out on those Brooklyn roads 1) Sunday Sun - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-Cej_Ib_S8 2) A Modern Day Version Of Love - ** - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO0cGcNMTyA 3) Honey-Drippin' Times - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcYOXdKi0ZE 4) The Pot Smokers Song - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Tm8EJaoFO8 5) Brooklyn Roads - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_x2LwPjB9U 6) Two-Bit Manchild - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt-dLcigCX8 7) Holiday Inn Blues - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W1-5fepUAo 8) Practically Newborn - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Mj0NYQHmZk 9) Knackelflerg - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSzuxM8EuxY 10) Merry-Go-Round - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5greWeF-3k Rating - 1.8

Whiney angst, but I love the sheer ambition of an album chronicling someone's (Waters') mental disintegration. Even after all this time, and so many listens, this album still gives me the shivers...

With that one selling 40 million copies, I don't think that will happen, but most of this was pretty good, with a couple border line great ones for me. No Jim Steinman for this 11th studio album for the meat man, but he does pick up Green Day producer Rob Cavallo. Some nice guest appearances by American Idol's Kara DioGuardi, House's Hugh Laurie, Jack Black, Steve Vai and Brian May.

![[Image: 200px-TheBeatles68LP.jpg]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/20/TheBeatles68LP.jpg/200px-TheBeatles68LP.jpg) Still working on the cd's to go with the vinyl. I can't help it. I know I've got 2 eyes, but why do I need 2 sets of lyrics. One in the booklet, one as a foldout. Could've used more album info rather than the lyrics in the booklet. Can't complain about the music though, well, other than those throw away tracks, especially that #9 crap. Not one of my favorite Beatle albums, but considering it's a double album, it'll do in a pinch. I LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - Revolution #9 Best Track - Glass Onion I told you about strawberry fields, You know the place where nothing is real Well here's another place you can go Where everthing flows. Looking through the bent backed tulips To see how the other half lives Looking through a glass onion. I told you about the walrus and me-man You know that we're as close as can be-man. Well here's another clue for you all, The walrus was Paul. Standing on the cast iron shore-yeah, Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet-yeah. Looking through a glass onion. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. Looking through a glass onion. I told you about the fool on the hill, I tell you man he living there still. Well here's another place you can be, Listen to me. Fixing a hole in the ocean Trying to make a dove-tail joint-yeah Looking through a glass onion 1) Back In The USSR - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2Qk-mZjwhA 2) Dear Prudence - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-2lMstw6qs 3) Glass Onion - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=He2EZ6-VOOk 4) Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJhcGepfG04 5) Wild Honey Pie - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dr7wD3NRcUI 6) The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq6l4_0Yjec 7) While My Guitar Gently Weeps - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3RYvO2X0Oo 8) Happiness Is A Warm Gun - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE2Vdcv9Q_o 9) Martha My Dear - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDVUPi56WT0 10) I'm So Tired - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh_9NPHTq94 11) Blackbird - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAgceen153I 12) Piggies - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXdKlpBOvs0 13) Rocky Raccoon - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nucSvl7VXVM 14) Don't Pass Me By - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WPVHOjZDqI 15) Why Don't We Do It In The Road - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KM02WcvlKn0 16) I Will - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8muJIOznsg 17) Julia - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcWzlxECaPo 18) Birthday - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lh525NYjzY 19) Yer Blues - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fevQPZDyxdk 20) Mother Natures Son - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIM30qFCLa4 21) Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lngGPsJ1pQ 22) Sexy Sadie - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSDFkjwMwes 23) Helter Skelter - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWuXmfgXVxY 24) Long Long Long - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfJ1ygAN5nU 25) Revolution 1 - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLqSwEqgxkQ 26) Honey Pie - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTuOAPE-LOo 27) Savoy Truffle - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZHsXjSSpDk 28) Cry Baby Cry - *** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4A3pX_shcyU 29) Revolution 9 - * - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQal-lJrSLI 30) Good Night - ** - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EoQVaQGXmM Rating - 2.3

![[Image: 41KvyOep4qL._SL500_AA300_.jpg]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41KvyOep4qL._SL500_AA300_.jpg) A feast of Funked-up instrumental Rock with Hammond Organ featured heavily. '60s Stax stalwart Booker T Jones teams up with Drive-By Truckers, and Neil Young to deliver a fabulous album with a total of five guitarists at its' disposal. Predominantly the tracks are originals, but there are a couple of covers. The guitars sound mostly filthy, and the album has that "live, in the studio" sound that's so effective (don't know if that's how the album was recorded, though). A cracker...

![[Image: The_Art_of_Malice.jpg]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5a/The_Art_of_Malice.jpg) Instrumental album, so, not my thing, but gotta give the guy some kudos. He can play that thing. Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie guitarist, John William Lowery, out with his 6th solo album. Not playing an instrument, I realize I am not as appreciative of this art as I should be, but I would think players would love this one. Enjoy!
