Sparks came into the bar (they were staying there) and we 'educated' them before they did the Victoria Rooms that evening. After a few cloudy ones, Ron got on the piano like an old Cockney. One of their session lads played spoons and me and my mate just blew bottle necks. Class afternoon, Ron and Russ wouldn't let us buy a drink! So................. apologies to anyone who went to the gig and thought the band seemed out of sorts that night. 70's album for me has to be Changesonebowie. Love you all xx Nice story, Great Album, years ahead of its time, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eynsham Red Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Deep Purple - Machine Head, (except for Smoke on the Water track. Probably the most over rated/played DP track recorded). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Interesting thread, the 70 would see my love of music start as I went to secondary school. 70s started with Slade, so first album I got , Slayed then our English teacher introduced me to Floyd and Dark side of the moon. Discovered Genesis , still love The lamb lies down. Then punk,Give 'em enough rope , No more hero's On to a great love, All Mod cons. Might have to check my vinyl for reminders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I twigged that after I heard a version of Kraftwerk's The Model played on a Hammond organ by a man with a broad Yorkshire accent on a TOTP album.

(prior to K-Tel & Arcade artiste compilations) The LP covers always featured some saucy scantily clad girl . They did n't need sophisticated marketing in the 70's .

One Team In Keynsham Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 One of the podcasts I listen to is the Danny Baker Saturday morning R5 show. Caught one from a couple of weeks back when David Hepworth was being interviewed, and the topic discussed was the premise that 1971 was the greatest year for albums. Various of the ones already mentioned above fall into this year: Carole King and Marvin Gaye to name 2 I threw in.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1971_in_music http://whatsheonaboutnow.blogspot.com/2012/09/1971-was-annus-mirabilis-of-rock-album.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
