Now, surely some from 1977 I can appreciate Television - Marquee Moon plus some very old friends Sex Pistols - Never Mind the B** Fleetwood Mac - Rumours Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell
------------- quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond |

David Bowie's "Heroes" over Television's Marquee Moon. And a nod to Klaus Schulze's Mirage as an album that I don't believe would be in this series. The author may have missed it in this life, but hopefully it will be added before the conclusion of the next life. Or at least in a later edition or sequel. ------------- "Questions are a burden to others; answers a prison for oneself" (The Prisoner, 1967). |

Right now, I'm listening to the last of Robbie Robertson's eight albums on my Legends of Laurel Canyon blog, and this afternoon I'll be listening to Peter Banks (of YES) on my Prog Britannia blog. He has more albums than you'd think, especially if you include his albums with Empire and Flash too.

Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell this album was written for me and about me (or so it seemed, back then)  more seriously, this album's lyrics hit me as hard as Crime Of The Century three years before

That's the only album of Meat/Steinman...

^ I like Bat Out of Hell 3 best of all, which features this Progressive Metal classic.  |

Definetely not as strong as Part 1, but I do treasure these three slightly flawed classics: 1 Fleetwood Mac - Rumours 2 David Bowie - Heroes 3 Peter Gabriel - 1 There is a couple of fantastic tracks on pretty much each of the remaining albums though. Love Holidays in the Sun, Ghost Rider, Nightclubbing, River Song, Marquee Moon (the track) etc... but there's also much not to love.

 But that's got nothing to do with the 77 male teenage-angsts (mostly female & cars-directed) that were the subject (almost concept) of Marvin Lee Aday's second album.  Now THAT's classic drama that was our every day stuff Fantastic concert too. The band played 20 minutes instrumental because they had blocked the crane that was lowering Meat in the air onto the stage. They were totally enpoying themselves playing away while he was yelling (mike-less) at them from atop them. . ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I can't (won't!) choose between the two Iggy Pop albums, so I'll vote David Bowie - Heroes. Btw, did you know that back in the day Television and The Fall were planning a collaboration album. It would've been called Mark E. Moon.

| PG's wonderfully eclectic mix of prog, new wave, bar room blues and barber shop. I'm still to this day the only Prog reviewer to give it 5 stars. Surely one of the best debut albums ever. |
