My favorite bands/artists are those that give every album a different touch so my favorites have always included multiple albums from the same groups. I like several bands that have developed a signature style over several releases, but one style gets old after a while! Even subtle changes are respectable. I don’t believe that changing your sound is “selling out” for any reason. Even if they are trying to reach a broader audience, I wouldn’t call it selling out (you don’t sign a recording contract because you don’t want to sell records….). I’m an old metal-head and I don’t even mind a band slowing down or softening up. If THE BEATLES taught us anything, it’s that a musical career is defined by change, not always pushing forward, but away from what was! Looking back is fine, spinning sideways is ok, blowing-up and breaking-down is all good, but always attempting to best the last version of what you were. Hell…we can learn a lot about LIFE from The FABS!!! My favorite albums are also those that hold a particular, personal memory with them. Sounds that remind me of a time in my life or a person that is special to me. An album that I might not think is an artist’s “best” ends up as my “favorite” due to the emotional attachment it has to me personally.

Wetsroosa mentioned Leo Kottke. Love him and all that finger-picking 12 string, especially “Eight Miles High.” (By the way, S Roosa was one of the Apollo astronauts – any connection?”
Maclenharristar has brought up Jethro Tull. I guess that makes two Tull fans on this Forum. Having said that, there are Tull fans who like everything they did beginning with Aqualung, and those who like Aqualung and everything that came before. I’m in the latter category. Love Stand Up and Benefit, and then there’s “Beggar’s Farm” and “My Sunday Feeling” from This Was.
And as for Cream’s Disraeli Gears, just had my Telecaster painted:

Satan Himself and Von Bontee, thanks. It’s real paint. The artist first did a mock-up on cardboard. She had a hard time with the faces, so she seamlessly moved the middle of the album cover up so as to mostly cover the faces. That worked out ‘coz now the “Disraeli Gears” is apparent.
Glad to hear there are THREE Tull fans.

I’ve wondered that myself actually, Into the Sky. It’s not a common last name unless you live in upstate New York. One of my distant relatives put together this genealogy book on the Roosa tree years ago and I’m certain Stu Roosa was in there. I can say for sure that after my wife married me, she went digging into the Roosa archives (spurred on by the Who Do You Think You Are? show NBC used to have) and she discovered a lineage the Roosas had to the Roosevelts.
