Listening to this CD this evening it struck me that this might be the most underrated CD I have, from both a sonics and music point of view. I bet everyone has a go-to album that needs more respect. Mine: Rosanne Cash— Rules of Travel.
Agree on all 3 points with Rocketroom. 3 demonstration quality albums with great sonics. Los Lobos Kiko on mobile fidelity master recording vinyl is one of my favorite albums, musically and sonically.
.................... Not sure if you can call a well-known band like Golden Earring under-rated. Its just that I only recently heard "To The Hilt" album. (For decades I was under the impression that all their lps after "Moontan" were sub-par.)
Pleasant surprize! Fabulous rhythm guitar throughout. Longer tracks. And the addition of Jan Stipps (Supersister) makes this their only prog-tinged lp.
Probably my discovery of the year - and its a bleeding common lp!
YES! I hear The Who in one track. .................. On an aside, just played the McVicar soundtrack. Not half bad - and wonderfully-recorded. Sounds much like The Who on half the tracks and there is a reason: this is basically a Daltry lp (and I think he also directed the film). Two standout instrumental tracks are non other than Jeff Wayne (War Of The Worlds).
