Whats on your turntable tonight?

@sbank   +1  Christine McVie. Might be the best "Fleetwood Mac" album of the 80's.

@loomisjohnson our erstwhile timekeeper, @bdp24 , will be thrilled to see your post about Dwight Twilley  - I’m certain.

Beethoven - Piano Sonata No.23 in F Minor, Op.57 “Appassionata” • Ikuyo Kamiya • 1977 RCA (Japan) • 45 • DtoD

@spiritofradio and @loomisjohnson: I'm assuming the Twilley album spoken of is his first "solo" album (the third Dwight Twilley album, but the first after drummer/vocalist Phil Seymour left the group and "Band" was dropped from the name), released in 1979 on Shelter/Arista? As far as I know the album never came out on CD (at least, I don't have it).

The LP sounds kinda weird, some phase shift problems plainly audible. Guitarist Bill Pitcock IV told me (he took up with my wife after our divorce. He eventually wised up ;-) the two engineers at the Shelter Studio in L.A.---Noah Shark and Max (no last name), credited along with Twilley as album producers---spent most of their time shooting pistols at the empty beer bottles that littered the property's back yard. Remember, coke was fueling the music world at the time ;-) (when I moved to L.A. that year, it was everywhere).

Twilley has continued to pump out the occasional album (mostly on CD) after his return to Tulsa, recorded in his home studio. Though both Seymour and Pitcock are no longer with us (Lymphoma got the former, Lung Cancer the latter---Bill was a 2-pack-a-day man), the albums retain the trademark Twilley sound. And he can still write a great song.
