Have been to the London Hi-Fi show a couple of times
Too Much Temptation  :icon_twisted:

Great show if you're looking to upgrade and want to check out the Market place.
Fortunately for me my vinyl medication is keeping the upgraditus bug at bay for the moment.  :D
Thanks for the tip off though.
Cheers
Dave

If you like any of the bands mentioned above that the 3 core members later joined, then I think you would like Trapeze.

Maybe a little on the heavy side for me, but hey, I'll pick one up at a record show one day and see!

Looks like a later label, you're right. Got you showing the disk, a la Toni!

Pulled out my old copy of Zuma today. Cleaned it and wow! Can't believe how good it sounds. Maybe I have a "Hot" pressing? Don't care, it just sounds incredible. Cortez the Killer was always one of my favorites and this just sounds so much better than all those 180 gram virgin vinyl Neil reissues I have been buying. Barstool Blues playing as I type. Now these are lyrics.

Of those bands mentioned, the only two I ever liked were Deep Purple (some, but not all) and Uriah Heep. I never liked and have never owned music by Black Sabbath, Whitesnake or Judas Priest. Way too heavy metal for me. My favorite Trapeze album is their debut which has a softer, more Moody Bues like sound. That being said, Medusa is a good album--not too heavy for the vinyl_lady.

Smithereens are a great band and Pat and the boys are very down to earth. Heck Pat'll come to your house and play requests in the living room.

My Bro's been living in Newton for the last 30 years.

I just came in from a late S/C. I lived in Hamburg a small town that is about a mile square. Back then it would take back then about 20 min. to get to Newton. I left in 1981 moved here (Pa.) in 1983 and I guess I must have grown roots or something because I stayed  :lol:...........Bill

With DD, why would you want to move? And with customers like you and Ed, it'll never close!

My Strawbs starts at Grave New World. Didn't realize Wakeman was in it! Allmusic says the bass is weak on the vinyl, remastered CD is better. Betcha the reviewer has a mediocre system!?

Hi Paul
I don't have much on cd but From The Witchwood is one of them. So I'll have to check it out. Try and find The Strawbs self titled and Dragonfly. I have a later 2 LP set with both.



and there is one with Sandy Denny

The Stawbs are still touring (occasionally).

Got to see them last year - Still very entertaining - They've certainly lived well  :D

Will probably catch them again on one of their November dates.

They're about to release a new album, sadly no sign of it being released on vinyl  :cry:

Unfortunately I missed them twice. I think it's the Hero and Heroine crew, read: no Hudson, no Ford.
