Hey Guys. I’m home sick too and mostly diverting myself experimenting with new stuff. Goes with my rotten mood... found this today. Check it out. https://open.spotify.com/album/0cLEKTdNamyJ0FzEgqOiP1?si=sPST5v5VTYST5mYOSCBDIQ |
I have Road and Universe. They are both on an evolving list of ‘68-‘74 favorites that someday I’ll ask you to help flesh out, if you would, Waters. I think I knew of Stryder but had forgotten. Will check it out. Great contextual Info bro. Enjoy your listening today. I’m having trouble really getting into the music feeling so rotten and ears and head all clogged. TMI I know i know. |
I like that Fat Mattress record. Ok Re: Strider. Yes I remember this now because I remember when Van Halen’s record came out a few years later we said we’d already heard it - or something to that effect. My friend Greg had this record (and I probably taped it off him). Pretty slick production and they had quite a bit of the 80’s hair band formula down even in ’73/‘74. Tone, major lift chorus, big dynamic shifts, Pretty good musicians really, and ahead of their time (interesting that it really sounds like a late 70s or 80s record). Worthwhile man, thanks. This is the kind of music that my pimpled faced friends and I went crazy for when we were 13 or 14 (Like the first couple of Kiss albums). But we grow up (sadly). I listen to some of my old records (like the first couple of Kiss albums) now with a mixture of ego and embarrassment. |
