 It doesn't apply anymore, but in high school, I figured that Edgar Winters  'Frankenstien'  was the go to song. Hit all the notes top to bottom.

Its fun reading about others memories of classic works, like Egdar Winters, Genesis, Yes, ELO, ELP, Pink Floyd etc. etc. Quite an era of rock and roll! Its one of those things that keeps me going. I lost a dear childhood friend in the 80's to an avalanche skiing accident. As adolescents we would enjoy music together. Every time I listen to a band that we both enjoyed so much I think of him. Thats how we live on in our music. Its who we are. Its, hopefully, how we will be remembered...

 Although I think that female voices are what I want to get right more than some other parameters, I will sometimes play an album that normally sounds poor to me. If for some reason it sounds better, it might beg the question 'why'

 Patricia Barber has more than one reference recording for me, while SuperTramps' 'Breakfast in America' was a terrible transfer from vinyl to CD.

John, "Live at Filmore East" is one of my all time favorites. I had the album and the EIGHT TRACK TAPE!!!

Greg, the albino twins live in my home town at one time...Leland, MS.


Thanks to everyone for the music suggestions and opinions. I don't know what it takes to get pinned, but lots of good, helpful info here.

 It's funny, my mind. I read "The albino twins live in my town, one at a time." I get a lot of laughs from my defective brain.  Johnny made some music that I wasn't even aware of for years. Same thing happened one night when I was listening to FM, and an album played by Steve Miller. I think it was called 'Italian dances' Wish I could hear that again. Soooo different

Its funny talking about the Winters. I remember listening to Edgar Winter, Frankenstein et al, with a friend "Hal Puffer". I'm sure he wouldnt mind me using his name, it was such a cool name, and a cool guy as well. Thats what we used to do as kids, smoke some dope and listen to music. I will forever associate Edgar Winter with him! Love to see him again, although, I'm sure he HAS to be dead. Sadly, most of my friends are...
