Tonight's album is King Crimson's debut album: In The Court Of The Crimson King.



This album started me on the path to collect all things Crimson, and the band has a lot of albums that I had to add to my collection.
Well... time to crank up "21st Century Schizoid Man"

Spoke of King Crimson, the first song that comes to mind is "Elephant Talk."

They have better songs, but I always remember "Elephant Talk".

Any fans of Laura Nyro? I think she is the best female singer/songwriter that ever lived. I could not believe it took the Rock Hall of Fame ( Shame is more like it) so long to induct her. Her music almost brings tears to my eyes, her music just touches your heart.
These are my favorite albums of hers.

Rock Hall of Fame is a commercial shame, but most 'halls of fame' are these days.

Sorry I have never heard of Laura but many would never heard of the musicians I like either. Enjoy and educate...

I think you would like her Tree. I have turned on some frinds to her, and they had never hear of her also, but now love her.
She wrote a ton of songs that other's turned into hits. Eli's Coming (3 Dog Night), Wedding Day Blues (5th Diminsion), And When I Die (Blood,Sweat and Tears), Stoned Soul Picnic (5th Dimension), and many others. She wrote all of these before she was 19. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Look her up online, I think you will be impressed with her work.
I kept seeing on record labels of albums I had the name L Nyro, and always wondered who it was. Then I read in the Dallas Morning news one day in 1997 about her death from ovarian cancer at the age of 49, and the mystery of who was L Nyro that I kept seeing on the labels was solved. I will forever thank the Dallas Morning News for that article, because she has forever enriched my life with her beautiful music. We definitely lost a great artist way too early. After buying one of her albums, I just had to get them all.

Lately I have been on a Moody Blues binge, I have been listening to one of their albums at least three or four days a week for the last several weeks.
My previous favorite album of their's was "Seventh Sojourn", but now I have a new favorite, "To Our Children's Children's Children". It just has great song after great song.
Favorite's are: Eyes Of A Child, Out And In, Gypsy, Candle Of Life & Watching And Waiting.
This is just a great album,with beautiful music, and even though I've owned it for many years, I never really played it much until recently. Now I cannot believe what I've been missing all this time. Has anybody else had an album that you never really played for a long time, then one day rediscover it?
Here is the album cover:

How about some Boss Hog, an American punk blues band featuring the husband and wife team of Jon Spencer ( guitar) and Cristina Martinez (vocals). Cristina gained some notoriety by performing nude at the bands first concerts. She also continued the nudity by posing nude on the cover of the band's debut EP "Drinkin', Lechin' & Lyin' and the album "Cold Hands".

I lack time to search something about them, but I'm still looking.

This is an eclectic group of albums, with only one common theme, erotic album covers. You see, I do not believe in categories for music, there is only good music and bad music. All these albums have good music on them.
We have Roxy Music-Country Life, Roxy Music-Stranded, Whitesnake-Lovehunter, Wet Willie-The Wetter The Better, The Ohio Players-Honey, Golden Earring-Moontan, Be-Bop Deluxe-Sunburst Finish, Handsome Furs-Sound Kapital, Burzum-Fallen & Christian Death-Catastrophe Ballet.

Any fans of Bauhaus or the Cure out there?
Bauhaus's first two albums, In The Flat Field and Mask are great, same goes for early Cure albums, Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography.
Any of these albums would make great Halloween music. The Cure's Faith album would be great background music for a seance.

Bauhaus, did the soundtrack for the movie "The Hunger - 1983".

Catherine Deneuve

David Bowie

Susan Sarandon

Directed by Tony Scott (brother of Ridley Scott).

It's a great movie about vampires, lesbians, loyalty, among other issues.

Appears in the film Bauhaus singing "Bela Lugosi's Dead", early on, in an environment that is the face of the band.

Do not miss this movie!
