Wuthering Heights by China Drum

Geoff (G. Robbins) wrote: "OMC - How Bizarre. Great one hit wonder."

i remember this one and liked it.

I listened to the follow up single on YouTube. Now I know why it was a one-hit wonder.

I'm currently listening to A Thousand Suns again by Linkin Park. This band has matured magnificently since their first album, Hybrid Theory. They have come so far the critics are really having trouble labelling them nowadays, calling them Alternate Rock. I think this is the best album released in 2010/11 and certainly their best to date.

This critic could label them quite easily Geoff

just listened to arctic monkeys "dont sit down ive moved your chair."

love youtube. got the wombats "techno fan"

now got on the rasmus "in the shadows"

Ah, but have you listened to it Ian. You might be surprised.

Step into Christmas - Elton John

Stormy Monday Blues - T-Bone Walker.

First day back at work, how appropriate.

Blues! Geoff, I've looking for an old blues song, I mean OLD, that I had on cassette. It was a copy so had no titles or artists on it.

It had cowbells. I love that song!

Be Prepared - Jeremy Irons

Indeed I have Geoff and no I wasn't

Cell Mates by Mariachi El Bronx

Peter Green - Destiny Road

Ah, Peter Green, great stuff Patti.

Listening to Deep Purple - Burn.

Levellers, Best of

Saw them live in the Morecambe Dome several years ago.

Listening to Red Queen to Gryphon Three by Gryphon.

Gryphon are a band to pass to Dave Patti, although he is probably aware of them. They are allegedly creating a new album, but there is no signs of it yet.

Gryphon..? i think i saw them play at stoke fooball ground with Yes, Sahb, and Ace. 1975?

Hotel California - cuban Del Mondos

Hotel California - cuban Del Mondos"

That's them Willie. They did a major tour supporting Yes. Their first album was the third album I ever purchased (First was the Best of the Animals, second was Tales from Topographic Oceans.) Very folk with traditional instruments, then they became more progressive till their final fifth album, Treason.

Have you also heard of Jade Warrior? Another great progressive band.

Dave's got Gryphon and Midnight Mushrumps.

He's just put Midnight Mushrumps on. I like the medieval instruments.

First album Dave ever bought was Deep Purple in Rock. He thinks his second was Led Zeplin two.

I think my first was Rainbow Rising or it could have been Peter Framptoon live because it was a double album and really cheap!

Here is the Wiki for Gryphon:

""

Damn, it doesn't like brackets in links. You'll need to copy and paste it into a browser.

The first album was amazing. Very folk with all traditional instruments. Red Queen to Gryphon Three and Raindance were condidered their best, although I love all their albums in different ways.

Simon, I was listening to Burn with David Coverdale on vocals. Went to see Deep Purple live after they released that album.

Went to a party for John Bonham's niece's 18th. He and Robert Plant turned up and started jamming with the hired band. Plant playing the drums and Bonzo singing. Wonderful evening.

I see my iPod has decided that today is going to be a progressive rock day.

It's now playing me King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table by Rick Wakeman.

Can't complain.

On the Road Again - how appropriate.

Ooo, broken the cycle. Now listening to Kenny Wayne Shepherd - Leadbetter Heights.

Geoff, you are a silly banana! I'm in the virgin lounge. Free wi-fi!! Champagne!! However...

It looks like an 80's disco in here. Richard could really do with giving this place an update. Hasn't changed in the seven years I've been coming here.

Shouldn't complain, I suppose...

Oh my kindle doesn't want to find the wi-fi. Goes straight to 3G.

Wishmaster - Nightwish (always puts me in the mood to read Lord of the Rings again...)

now onto Skin - Rhianna

Very nice Jud, like Nightwish a lot, or I did until the lead singer left and they replaced her with a singer from an Abba tribute band. Sheesh. Have you tried Leaves Eyes?

Back to prog rock for my iPod - Magnification by Yes.
