slipknot1

Gamma 1.  I love the smell of Montrose in the morning.  Or something like that.

thin white rope, "exploring the axis"--you hear a bit of velvet underground and krautrock influence, but this is mostly very unique-sounding

fountains of wayne, s/t--this sort of clever-pop can sound smarmy in the wrong hands (i.e. weezer), but these guys do it really well, with big hooks and a great guitar sound. "radiation vibe" is incredible.

roy loney, "out after dark"--ex flamin groovie runs out of steam a bit on side 2, but side 1 is as tough a rockabillyish set as you'll ever hear

@loomisjohnson  - "radiation vibe" is incredible.

Agreed. I love that kind of pop rock. Solid hook. Makes me sing, really loud...

The Police  -  Outlandos d' Amour    It didn't take me long to play this one.  Great album, darn good sonics.

Al Di Meola  -  Splendido Hotel   Al surely is a great guitarist!

Kenny Burrell with Coleman Hawkins  -  Bluesey Burrell  AP/QRP issue.  I still find it hard to believe how much excellent sound was made in recording studios so many years ago.  And AP gets these master tapes and gets every bit of information out of them.  Excellent mastering, plating, and stamping.  Excellent music!
