Members bnyswonger Posted July 14, 2009 Members Share Posted July 14, 2009 First CD = Todd - "AWATS", Since most people here probably have no idea what this is, I'll just go ahead and say you, sir, have excellent taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AW,ATS was a good one. Todd runs pretty hot & cold for me though. Most of his output does little for me, or I actually dislike. But a few I really like a lot, and I definately have a lot of respect for him. "A Cappela" was cool (and that was a really fun tour - I got up on stage and played drums!). My favourite is "RA" (Utopia) - always thought it would be fun to play "Singring" live. "Concept Rock" ftw! I agree that Ryco's list shows some excellent taste. Somehow though, contrary to his status listing under his user name, I don't think he's quite a "junior" though, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jasper383 Posted July 15, 2009 Members Share Posted July 15, 2009 Don Kirshner Presents Fun Rock. I was 6. I think I still know most of the words to most of the songs, 35 years later. My first single was "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" by Elton John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bassman1956 Posted July 15, 2009 Members Share Posted July 15, 2009 Don't remember. But, good chance it was Ramsey Lewis Trio, either Swingin', or Barefoot Sunday Blues. You guys really gotta get off your assesses and find some of their early stuff! Eldee Young absolutely kills on upright!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members foo_fighter Posted August 9, 2009 Members Share Posted August 9, 2009 Oh man, I don't know if I should say this or not but I think it might have been a Bay City Rollers 45. I also recall an ELO 8-track being among one of the earlier recordings I bought and I owned a bunch of Kiss recordings when I was young. I also remember when the cover of Blinded By The Light was recorded by Manford Mann's Earth Band and I think I had a 45 of that. That was a big hit when I was little. I remember listening to songs by America on am radio being some of my favorites back then particularly Sister Golden Hair. I also really liked(still do I guess, but when I was little it was a favorite) American Pie by Don McClean. Ok, I've shown my age and embarrassed myself enough. Peace. Out.
