Well, now that I bought the U.S. Revolver I now own all the U.S. albums except for The Beatles Story and I did a show on it, so I have the album on a backup CD copy of the episode. Next up will be the George Harrison Apple box set and the Dark Horse set… Christmas oughta be fun.

Nice one. Is there any particular reason you didn’t get the U.S. box – or did you already have a lot of them?

Didn’t have the money to buy the box set, but I could buy one album a month when I got paid, which is what I did. Plus, I already had the first 4 U.S. albums when I got the ’04 box set release, and wasn’t up for buying them again.

Offline Just got this in the mail from Amazon yesterday.
Listened to disc 1 on the way to work and will check out disc 2 on the way home. Track 2 on disc 1 was a pleasant surprise. I had never heard this cover before and it is quite good- soulful R&B. Duane’s guitar playing on it is very nice. I’ll post it in the covers thread.
To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

Longhairs?
I have around 400 classical CDs – went through a ‘phase’ around 15-20 years ago

Ha ha – the top album in the post – Keepin’ the Summer Alive. They are in some sort of weather sphere keeping warm in the snow and that is a penguin in front watching them.

I’m going through that phase now! I just buy whatever I find used, and some of it I like enough to keep playing.
(Referring to classical music as “long-haired music” is old-fashioned slang – it dates back to decades before the Beatles revived the popularity of men growing hair to their collars and below! I’m fond of using ridiculously outdated language on occasion!)

Offline I was originally going to post this on the Christmas thread, but I am not going to celebrate Christmas with my mom’s side of the family until the 28TH, so I can’t truthfully say “what did you get for Christmas?” yet.
On CD:
(I ended up giving the Johnny Cash album to my older sister, because I already had it.)
On vinyl:

Offline I Bought a Lot of Albums these past few days
The Ramones-The Sire Years Box Set which has The Ramones, Leave Home, Rocket to Russia, Road to Ruin, End of The Century and Pleasant Dreams
The Beatles in Mono (CD) and i am pretty sure we all know whats in that
The Yes Box Set 1969-1987 which has everything from their first album up to Big Generator
Exile On Main Street (CD)
Axis:Bold as Love (CD) and now i have all of Jimi’s Albums with His Experience Band
The new Houses of The Holy Remaster (CD)
Paul McCartney ‘s RAM (CD)
and Finally Led Zeppelin 1 and 2 (CD)
It was mainly from money i rechieved over the holidays
I Think that Rolling Stone should do a cover story of The Rolling Stones covering "Like a Rolling Stone" or if a Type of Beetle was named after The Beatles.
