Emerson Lake and Palmer - Works Volume 1 - probably the finest overall production in my collection. Elements of classical music, jazz, rock, folk and electronica all rolled into one album. I have always wondered what album I would choose if I could only choose one. This one would certainly be in the final list.

OK - I have to admit although I currently live in Ireland, I am not a great fan of their traditional music. (sounds to much like SA traditional music) - but I thought I would post a link to a clip of the Corrs. Their covers of other musician's material is better than their own stuff. One thing I have to say - this is the best looking drummer on the planet - Caroline my number is 086 276 2788. Please call. http://youtu.be/1ov6USLXwGA

Artist Recording History
studio albums - 18
live albums - 9
compilation albums - 19
singles - 50
from my library (cd)
Purchase from last end of year spree that I just cracked open. Surprised that there were 5 tracks on here I had not heard, all but 1 passed.
That Rain Dance didn't work. The only one of those on the album though. Nice liner notes of a bio of the band. Only thing missing is what albums
the tracks are from. Big downer that Shakin' All Over is not on here. But that was before Burton Cummings took over vocals. These tracks run
from 69-74, the bands high period. A pretty decent retrospective. I have 4 studio albums by these guys on vinyl, but needed an overview for the
cd collection. Yes they were that good. American Woman is a classic. With 5 other love tracks, the album just misses a love score.

Hey, that Corrs cover is awesome. I'm a sucker for strings.
Wow. Brian Wilson. Hehe.

I am without any sound at the moment SteveO, so I can't really comment. My trusty EMU 1820 interface has gone to the 'Great Gig in the Sky'. I am still however waiting for Caroline Corr to call me (she's the one with the nice kit). I am going to be waiting a long, long time......
