@R-L You know your (sorry, you're) audience don't you.
Think you're thinking of @Virgil not me...
And I do know my audience my dear Snow White..
Your just attention seeking, it was aimed at anyone - although he is the major culprit. Deliberatly by now I suspect, or it is a really flat learning curve.
Psycho Killer actually is one of my favourite songs and 77 was one of my first albums, and yes, it was vinyl. I was very young at the time of course.
Great track. My go-to Spotify playlist when I'm cooking (read: drinking wine) on a Sunday avo is Early Alternative, and this tune always comes on and has me singing along
I listened to this yesterday. Some good tracks, but too much fucking Lou Reed.
Fuck Lou Reed
Walk on the Wild Side has to be one of the most overrated songs in music history.
Thats not what all the coloured girls say..

All they said was "Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do"
I think I'm with @mariner4life on this one.
As over rated a song as Shawshank is a movie, or Leigh Hart a comedian.

My first LP and CD was probably the same album, Dire Straits' "Brothers in Arms" in 1985.
IIRC the first cassette I bought was Men At Work's "Business as Usual" in 1981. I still have it in a box with my other cassettes.
1985 is closer to the end of the vinyl era than 1982 is. I bought a CD player in 85 and I bought Brothers In Arms and Blood On The Tracks at the same time. But generally there was bugger all CDs available, at least in Whangarei.

More “watching “ than “listening to” but there’s a really interesting doco on BBC at the moment called “The Jazz Ambassadors “ about the propaganda use of musicians like Dizzy G and Louis Armstrong during the Cold War. It’s a piece of history I was oblivious to.
Really highlights the social influence and cross cultural power of music.
Some other stuff more suitable for the politics board but the power of music is strong -
Powderfinger are doing a concert on YouTube and it's awesome

@MajorRage That is THE Deep Purple song, and why I rate In Rock so highly. Unfortunately it hasn't been played live in a long time (2002) because of the vocals required.

I cannot believe that in recent top lists, I didn’t include this:
Gillans vocals absolutely on point for current headspace.
Emotionally epic music at its absolute peak.
This song deserves to be their standard.....not fucken Smoke on the Water. ( As an aside what THE FUCK is up with the crowd ? were they expecting to hear some chamber music ? ) So good. Everyone nailed it.
Shit they were an awesome group....man for man you could argue each individual was equal or better than Zep.........but Deep Purple for whatever reason don't quite occupy that echelon.
Richie invented shredding, fuck that dude could play like a motherfucker.

Yeahs 74 now. Means stopped singing it at 56.
Fair cop.

Saw them in 2006. Gillan hilariously completely missed the intro to Highway Star and cracked up while doing so.
They were cool but definitely a concert of two halves, second being better once they busted out that, "Space Truckin", "Speed King", "Black Night", "Strange Kind of Woman" etc after a few songs no one knew.
If you think about it Steve Morse has been the guitarist for Deep Purple longer than Richie but despite being brilliant he just doesn't have the same magic for me. Mind you it sounds like Richie has the dickhead personality to match the talent.
Roger Glover is a joy to watch live. He just looks like he loves it. Paice's chops had slowed down quite a bit but he still nailed it. Gotta be one of Rocks most underrated drummers of that era cos he's every bit as brilliant as Bonham/Moon/Baker were. ( Sabbaths Bill Ward is incredible too )
For evidence of this look no further than the California Jam.......( How different were they only 4 years later than @MajorRages initial vid ? )
