James Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 Good call on Yellow Brick Road....I think Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding is the best rock piece ever written....I like the live version better though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy K. Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 This is actually a harder subject to figure than you think........you will have one "good" or "OK" song that pales against an otherwise "all killer" lineup.And as much as I like most of the Beatles' "White Album", there are actually a couple of duds thrown in there.As far as consistency goes, I'm partial to side one of Led Zeppelin's "In Through the Out Door"( "In The Evening", etc) Ditto for side one of Badfinger's "Wish You Were Here"Also:Beach Boys-"In Concert"-side 4(two-disc set)New Order-"Substance"-side 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvin Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Here's one that I bet NO ONE would pick:Side 2 of the Carpenters' "Now & Then." The side began with "Yesterday Once More", and then segued into a radio dj introducing the next batch of songs, all from the 1960's which Karen and Richard performed. It was a neat concept, with a radio station phone-in contest in between songs such as "One Fine Day", "Johnny Angel", and "Deadman's Curve.Marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
