The entire Wee Tam / Big Huge double LP was brilliant. Of course I'm biased as people are partial to music they grew up with. My brother bought this album when it was released. It been rare that a year has gone by since then where I haven't played the album in full. Another favourite off of Wee Tam was Job's Tears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An acoustical hall that was built in 1889 and was meant for hosting fine music, such as opera. It worked out great for rock music, too. Among others, I saw Emerson, Lake and Palmer there from a private balcony seat. Emerson played facing organs, one with each hand. During the Knife Edge number he stuck knives in the keyboards. Climbed on one of the organs at one point and was rocking it back and forth. He was a wild man, RIP. Yes opened for them. Couldn't ask for a better venue. Great show.

Tippaporn Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) This was the show I was referring to above. I laughed when I ran across it on YT a few years back. The video description gives the concert venue as the Arie Crown Theatre but that's wrong. It was the Auditorium Theatre. The audio is poor quality but good enough for my memory to follow along.

Tippaporn Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Another album I listen to a least once a year is the Bee Gee's Odessa double LP. That LP was also purchased by my brother at it's release in spring of '69. My brother had his driver's license and so would use church as an excuse to take my sister and I on Sunday morning drives during that summer. Marley Purt Drive brings those memories back every time I hear it. Edited December 11, 2021 by Tippaporn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippaporn Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Perhaps my opinion is overly influenced by my partiality but I think Odessa was a masterpiece. Hands down the Bee Gees best album by far. And for harmonies I can't think of anyone better than the Bee Gees. On par, maybe, but better . . . . ? The hauntingly beautiful Odessa, the album's title track. This song exemplifies their flawless harmonies.

bannork Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Songs and memories, we've talked about it before on this thread but it's such a strong association, it's worth mentioning again. Primary senses linked to memories in the brain. As a child, I was very fortunate to spend my early years in Nigeria in the late 50s/ early 60s. One late afternoon my father was driving our jeep home in the bush, sitting in the open back we passed some farmers burning a pile of tree branches. i can't describe the smell in words, but it was unforgettable, delicious, refined, exquisite. I forgot about this until 2 or 3 years ago when driving near my home in Issan, the exact same smell from a fire nearby wafted through my open window. I was instantly taken back to Nigeria and the drive that day. It's the same with music. i can't hear 'She Loves You' without recalling a kid 2 years ahead of me bawling out the lyrics as he stood on the branches of on oak tree in our school grounds. I wonder how rhythm and melody affect the brain differently. Is one more dominant? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a song dedicated to his wife of the time, Sandy "Blue Sky" Wabegijig. Of all of the Allman Bros. fabulous tunes Blue Sky is way up at the top. We were nature freaks (still are) and this song always gives me flashes of outdoor scenes. Let Nature Sing off of his '74 solo album, Highway Call. That album is every bit as good as anything done by the Allman Bros. Great personnel on that LP, from Vassar Clements on fiddle to the Poindexter Bros. on backing vocals, dobro, guitar and banjo and others.
