Vinyl Rhetoric

The Panda brought this comedy album.  Dan Cummins brings some really poignant and funny observational humor.  The Panda has seen him live more than once, and she really likes him.  Kingcow listens to two of his podcasts, "Timesuck" and "Scared To Death".  Be forewarned, there is some salty language!

Heather chose to play side 2 first.  You can hear it in Episode 243.  This is the second album she has played which Kingcow also owns.  There are some really strong rockers on this side. 

The Crafty DM brought this 58 year old piece of vinyl.  One of the Rat Pack, this is a frolicking good time.  Sammy does some comedy, singing, and impressions.  This was side 3 of this double album.  Enjoy this nostalgic look back in time.

Heather brought this gem.  The debut album from Guns N' Roses does not disappoint.  She chose to play the second side.  Kingcow knows the songs, but not the names.  Enjoy this tour-de-force.

This 1983 release was The Thompson Twins' third album.  Kingcow picked it up in Japan.  It is a sound that he really enjoys.  Definitely an '80's synth sound.

This is Heather's final side of her island albums.  Tori Amos can definitely sing and play the piano.  We hope you enjoy this offering.

This, their fifth studio album, has some very intriguing songs.  While probably not everyone's cup of tea, it is an iconic sound from this group.

This is the debut album of Tori Amos.  Little Earthquakes is Heather's fifth and final island album.  The passionate redhead's voice and piano playing are extremely dynamic. 

This is the fourth album from this Bay Area, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, inductee.  Kingcow really enjoys their sound because of his wife's love of this group.  The Blob played an earlier album from them.  Steve Perry makes his debut on this album.

We lost another rock legend.  Dusty Hill, of ZZ Top, passed away.  Way back in Episode 7, The Blob played Tejas, ZZ Top's fifth album.  Heather really liked their sound and sought out more.  She brought this, their first album.  Hill, ZZ Top's bassist, was a member of the band for over 50 years!  R.I.P.
