Picking up where I left off yesterday.

Led Zeppelin - How The West Was Won

On the one time I saw them in concert, somewhere around 1971, we went to the early show that lasted only about an hour and 15 minutes. Felt like the soundcheck for the later show.

76F / 63% RH / 9 mph - after a morning and early afternoon of babysitting and then yard work afterwards, sitting out in the garage feels great

Third day in a row. Should be able to finish the rest of the album tonight.

Led Zeppelin - How The West Was Won

Not sure when, if ever, I’ll be listening to this again.

77F / 63% RH / 8 mph - overcast most of the day but no rain...yet

Whipped through a bunch of B.O.C. .....somehow I don't remember so much of it being so lousy. I don't get it. I loved a lot of it....appreciate some that I don't like...and now dislike a ton. The blues guitars and heavy licks mostly seemed to evolve into poppish garbage....and still, they were capable of putting out occasional decent stuff later:

Back in the '70s, I saw BOC live at least a dozen times, and Soft White Underbelly(BOC incognito) another 4 or 5 times. I thought they were fantastic, probably one of the best laser shows ever.
A few years back I went through and listened to all the old albums I used to love, and came to the same conclusion you did....I think it was me, and I just outgrew it. Maybe I matured, but I refuse to believe that!! There are still a few I enjoy, but BOC just doesn't do it for me anymore....that being said, I used to and still really like this song....

Speaking for myself, sometimes those “youthful activities” blurred my listening experiences, of course, ymmv. :-"

But you know, there was a time, in the early to mid ‘70s, when BOC had a fair amount of radio play and their albums sold decently well so you / we weren’t alone.

Somewhere I still have the 12” promo of “Godzilla” taken from “On Your Feet or On Your Knees”.

“Oh no, there goes Tokyo...”

McCoy Tyner - The Impulse Story

Another jazz giant that I haven’t listened to in a while.

Little Feat - Waiting For Columbus

One of the all-time live rock albums. I miss Lowell.

76F / 66% RH / 12 mph - started out on the driveway but a light drizzle chased me back inside the garage... and then, as soon as I got settled in, it stopped

Inspired by the Netflix rockumentary “Now More Than Ever: The History of Chicago”:

Chicago II

Although I bought the CD when it first came out, would hazard to say that I hadn’t listened to the whole album since high school.

76F / 66% RH / 10 mph - it poured a couple of hours ago and heavy rains predicted for the next couple of days

Garbage - Garbage

Spent many a wasted night watching Butch Vig in clubs in Madison, WI playing with Spooner. Was a couple decades before I made the connection between those shows and Nevermind, Siamese Dream, Shirley Manson, FF, etc. The guy was a decent enough drummer, but he sure had the Midas touch as a producer

A mixed CD I called “Soul Stuff” ‘cause it’s all soul / r&b songs from the ‘60s and ‘70s.

Songs range from The Winston’s “Color Him Father” to Edwin Starr’s “War” and everything in-between.

79F / 59% RH / 14 mph - overcast almost the whole day with a couple of downpours

Every few months, I get the itch to pull out an old album and crank the volume all the way up. Piledriver by Status Quo. These guys have been rockin hard since 1968 but I never heard of them until I picked up some used vinyl a few years ago. Turns out they have had 60 songs in the UK charts.

Al Green / O.V. Wright / Don Bryant - Rare and Unissued Hi Recordings

Stumbled upon this on Spotify. The Rev is one of my all-time favorites, dunno much about the other two.

I was in bustling Downtown Concord N.H. visiting my local , and when I was leaving I heard someone playing Sax up on the next street over, so I walked over and there was a homeless guy jamming away on Little Bitty Pretty One, and he was really good. I stuck a little token of appreciation into his sax case, and was treated to The Theme From the Pink Panther, and then he launched into Tequila...the song not the beverage....man, I really enjoyed listening to him play, and he was having a pretty good time himself.
