Jeff Beck - Blow By Blow [SACD Surround!] (1975)

Ok “Wired” was my first exposure to Geoffrey Arnold Beck, and what a watershed moment that was!!!!!. However, this record lives on as my favourite JB recording.

Richard, who I know is very fond of this record, played “My Finest Hour” at last night’s Shut Up and Listen session.

Bonnie Raitt - And Friends [DVD 5.1] (2005)

I paid nearly $7 for this gem at The Warehouse. It’s just outrageous! My “five bucks” catch phrase is getting harder and harder to substantiate these days.

Sparklehorse - Good Morning Spider (1998)

Some times it’s not fair being a bottom-shelfer! Some of my favourite albums are not always in easy reach and may at times get completely overlooked.

Hot Chip - Made In The Dark (2008)

Fuck it, I just needed something completely disposable tonight. A long day, a long drive and an absence of any musical intelligence.

Sugar - Copper Blue (1992)

Faultless post-Hüsker Dü record from their legendary front man. Despite a brain melting wall of guitars, it’s the hook of great melody amidst all of that power that prevails over everything else.

Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains The Same [Film] (1976)

I can’t remember if I biked over or caught the bus to my destination of Napier 15 miles away, but I do remember being there for the Saturday afternoon screening of “The Song Remains The Same” in ‘76 or ‘77.

Fleetwood Mac - Future Games (1971)

I’ve listened to Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, up to and including the excellent “Then Play On” and the megastar Linsey Buckingham-era Fleetwood Mac that peaked with “Rumours” and “Tusk”.
