never realy played NEW YORK much..i like V.U. and early Lou... other freinds tell me "Songs for drella" the album he did with John CaLe is ealy worth a listen....GOTTA ADMIT TOUGH.. I NEVER LISTENED TO lOU ALOT AFTER Coney Island Baby.
I saw him in 1979 at Hammersmith, wich was a realy good gig.
TH enext one at Brixton in 84 or so wasnt as good.
I think Rock n Roll Aniaml should be in all good record collections though. |

| Recently been into side two of the Doors' debut as well as Quicksilver Messenger Sercive's "Happy Trails".A title alludes me at the moment,but either the third or fourth track of that Doors' side features monumentally cascading psychedelic church organ played masterfully by Mr. Ray Manzarek,whom I've always considered one of rock's most overlooked and therefore underappreciated musicians.Quicksilver's "Maiden of the Cancer Moon" is marvelously transcendant.The whole side two for that matter.I absolutely adore the nearly sardonically whimsical tail ending of the Dale Evans penned cowboy ditty title piece.As if you were on an acid trip with the Lone Ranger! |

Just a little Richie Valens , Buddy Holly, Mamas and The Papas,
and Moody Blues In Search of the Lost Chord. We certainly do our best to find that chord on this website. |

| OOh Yeah!Almost always up for a listen of "Lost Chord".Big admirer of "The Best Way to Travel","Visions of Paradise" and "Vocies in the Sky".I also put "Om" to good use as a meditational device along with my Ravi Shankar cd.Hard to choose between this and "Future Passed" as my favorite Moodies album.I didn't discover "Every Good Boy Deserves Favour" until just last year but of course it quickly became one of my pet albums.I just adore that Moodies/Mellotron tone to things.Speaking of the Mamas and Papas,I just saw "If You Can Believe your Eyes and Ears" at a local thrift for a buck.Can you recommend it? |

A buck, did you say a buck? More important I don't think you can surpass "Future Passed", but "Lost Chord " holds its own. Where was this thrift store? I lived in Boston for five years, drove a cab a little and knew the city pretty well. Spent a lot of time wandering
into boutiques, music stores, little shops. Being a New Yorker I could not read the sports pages. |

So I shouldn't yell "Go Red Sox"?!! Man, did you live in the wrong town for a Yankee fan!! No Yankee stickers in the cab!!

GREAT STUFF!! That's what I'm talking about! I would highly recommend getting Songs for Drella & Magic and Loss...brilliant stuff.
Yes that closing song "Hello It's Me" that Lou wrote and sings with so much feeling....quite a touching song ...the whole album is so much better than any movie ever made about Warhol.

| For Mark K.I snatdhed that Moodies' album at Salvation Army.It's not what all what you might think when you go there.yes,there are some old worn out,scratchy,cover soiled pieces of garbage in there at times,but alot of times,people are just generously donating perfectly good copies of some pretty decentg works because theuy're in the midst of replacing them with cd's and mp3 and ipod downloads.I bought an interesting copy of "Magical Mystery Tour" on Apple for a buck also.It was missing the cover,but the record was absolutely pristine condition so I bought it anyway.What the hell,the music's still there and good.If you're in Beantown again,check out Mass Ave Cambridge for good old vinyl.I personally take the bus out of Lynn and head to Salem to aplace called the Record Exchange on Washington Street up in Salem.I bought the Woostock soundtrack for a buck there when they were having a cassettte clearance.The Salvation Army has decent classic rock cassettes for 75 cents.I recently bought the Doors first album there. |
