This is for Blobs son Ian. Gone to soon.

Kingcow takes us back in time to 1974 for this release. Truth be told it was a compilation of songs from 62'-65'. Released by their former label the album was originally titled "Best of the Beach Boys Volume 3" and Mike Love said to wait and call it Endless Love. It was figured to have helped sell an additional 3 million copies. We hope you enjoy the surf sounds of the endless summer.

Because this is turkey month the Blob chose his greatest turkey to display. This album side is truly not what it claims to be. When we think of funk we have many thoughts of what we might expect to hear, unfortunately for us Billy Lee Riley has no idea what funk meant in any sense of the word. Get through it is all we can suggest. Merry Thanksgiving.

Being the season of thanksgiving we thought about food, specifically turkey. What better way to enjoy turkey dinner than to play a real turkey of an album. Kingcow chose the trucker oriented C.W. McCall greatest hits. Although a former trucker, the Blob takes no umbrage with the choice as he thought the album was funny odd. Give us your thoughts or just get through it. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

So the Blob wanted to share some high energy rock.  In doing so he chose former Scorpions and UFO guitarist Michael Schenker. Formed in 1979 this album showcased the melodic hard rock sound. Many will recognize the progressive undertones that gave it that edge. Funny anecdote, our son came home from college for a few days and this album was out in the room he was staying in. I asked him how he slept. He said the album cover was fairly creepy at 4 am. Please enjoy this offering.

From the land down under we supply you the album Working Class Dog from Rick Springfield. Yes Rick is Australian, but dont hold that against him as most of the US didn't as he was already a heart-throb having been in numerous TV shows in the late 70's. The 1981 release of Working class Dog saw him also working a day job on the soap opera General Hospital. Nevertheless this album cemented his status as a rocker that could also act. Just have fun with it, they did.

Today we bring you Curtis Mayfield. This singer-songwriter, guitarist and record producer was highly influential in the civil rights movement of the 50's, 60's. His more prevelant themes of social awareness became clear in his lyrics as he continued writing. The Blob recalls hearing the soundtrack to Super Fly. This was one of his favorites at a young age. We hope you enjoy this incredibly soulful release by this legendary artist. Be smooth.

Today Kingcow brings you the second studio album from UK musician Howard Jones. Released in March of 1085 this album reached number 2 in the UK album charts and in the top ten in the US charts. Widely known internationally, Jones has worked on a number of projects outside his solo work. Give this a listen and find the calmness in the music. Enjoy!

Todays offering is The Firm. Interesting release from Jimmy Page and Paul Rogers. It goes back a number of years but was a solid offering from 2 two of rocks legendary performers. Although not a major release it garnered acclaim from loyal Page and Rogers followers. Hope you enjoy this radioactive release.

This is the all time leading album in sales having sold 66 million copies. This 1982 release was the sixth studio album from the King of Pop. Kingcow was all over this album, the Blob not so much. But that doesn't mean it was not considered the greatest musical release. It was. And the video release was pivitol in cementing that position. Happy Halloween everybody.
