[@donneumann6546]

Love the Steve Winwood album. You are correct about The Morning Side!

[@rogertemple7193]

I really enjoy seeing the various different genres of music that you collect with albums and listen to have a good weekend thanks Phil. 🎶🎶📻🎶🎶

[@libermetallicus]

Good to see the Testament album here Phil. A great band who’ve been very consistent and I don’t think they’ve done a bad album. Classic US Thrash metal. Great video as always.🤘🙂

[@fenestrosaur]

I've played "Tubular Bells" so much during senior year of high school (45+ years after it was released) that part 2 was just burned into my brain. Great vid!

[@thevoid902]

Believe it or not back in '74 , when we were old enough to afford the LP, Tubular Bells was a party album . Every weekend. Great fun. Everybody joining in with Viv Stanshall! . But then we might have been weird kids back then . Peace ✌

[@alexd6181]

Nice selection as always Phil. I've been on a Thin Lizzy kick then went into Gary Moore, Great times!

[@wolf1977]

Got the Wild Frontier remaster not that long ago with additional 12" versions

[@bulloguin]

15:14 Winwood’s Roll With It is an awesome álbum. Love each track included. Hearts on fire is my favorite track and all songs bring so many joyfull memories from my high school days. One thing about this album: the audio is simply oustanding, if you own it on tape, vinyl, CD or even digital, you’ll find no better recording to put your audio system to the test. Awesome audio quality and awesome talent from Mr. Winwood as well. Thanks for the memories, great video!

[@colstonvear1958]

Peak Redbone is 'Come & Get Your Love'. From the Wovoka LP 1973

[@wolf1977]

Yup their big hit. All Mexican/Native American lineup. Kinda eclectic mix of musical styles, could get pretty funky at times. I think they were 'banned' in the US by some stations at one point due to Native topics in their song lyrics. They had another song called "Night Come Down" from their s/t debut that kinda reminds me of that hit. "Jambone" is a pretty cool instrumental, "Suite Mode" & "Things Go Better" are two more. Really good debut, a double album. In fact the first 4 albums (1970-73) are all solid, then starting with Beaded Dreams Through Turquoise Eyes their sound changed some. Their archival Redbone Live (recorded in '77) is pretty good but too short - should've contained more early tracks

[@kenfrederick6223]

Spinning for me this week: Aerosmith - Classics Live Complete, Phil Collins - Serious Hits...Live!, Blue Murder - Blue Murder, Willie Kent - Too Hurt To Cry, Apocrypha - The Forgotten Scroll. 💿 Take care!

[@electricladyguitarsdevonuk1414]

Music in a Doll's House/Bandstand by Family always in rotation

[@christopherdavies3079]

I remember well when that Kiki Dee album “ I’ve got the music in me “ came out when I was a teenager and I had the hots for her and I’ve never forgotten the slip up I made one day when I said to my best mate at school in my lunch break that I thought Kiki Dee looked ravenous when I meant say she looked ravishing ! lol . Somehow all these years later I’ve never forgotten saying that .

[@julianirving9868]

Phil, another great list. The plethora of 50 years old album videos has led me to listen to a number of these fabulous albums over the last few days. Also been playing Soft Machine, Bundles and Softs, Scott Henderson, Snarky Puppy and Monkey3. Still waiting for the Magnum, Riverside and Nektar pre orders to arrive. Kind regards

[@dfugmann1306]

Really enjoy your weekly playlist vids…thoughtful insight and always find new music to discover. My week has been spent listening to G’n’R Use Your Illusions 1 & 2, Slide it In, Blue Murder, Def Leppard ’83 Live at the LA Forum.

[@petrirantanen]

I've been listening to my cd box sets lately. Mott The Hoople: Mental Train, Cheap Trick: Sex, America, Cheap Trick, Yngwie Malmsteen: Now Your Ships Are Burned, Motöhead: No Sleep At Hammersmith, Husker Du: Savage Young Du, White Zombie: Let The Sleeping Corpses Lie, Kiss: Alive, Johnny Cash: Unearthed, Tom Petty: American Treasure, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: Lovely Creatures, The Cure: Join The Dots, AC/DC: Backtracks, Nirvana: With The Lights Out and Soundgarden: Echo Of Miles: Scattered Tracks Across The Path. Also tons of lp's and other cd's, but I doubt people are interested in those. Mainly punk and avantgarde artists. Cheers from Finalnd!

[@BanalayerPete1972]

Thanks so much for the Bad Company album review. Like your mate, I'm very keen on Burning Sky, which has a very "outdoor" feel as an album. It has differing moods from track-to-track. The way Burning Sky segues into Morning Sun is a thing of beauty. Ralphs' solo on Peace of Mind is perfect. Man Needs Woman is one of my fave tracks, and was great live. I have the Desolation Angels Deluxe edition, and must get the Burning Sky one soon. The cover would've benefited from some of the inner photo colour. Still waiting in vain for the Rough Diamonds Deluxe edition. We should start a petition! PS Kiki Dee is great.🙂

[@BostonMike68]

I have going to a thrift store and buying CDs, last week I found Tool anima and lateralis, perfect circle thirteen steps, and audioslave, I owned all those before but they were stolen. I also got Thin Lizzy Jonny the Fox from Amazon. I have bought a lot of good used CDs for 1.99 from the thrift store

[@StevenDavid-4q2]

I just got in a day or so ago the last album from Magnum - Live at KK's Steel Mill 2CD set, 8 tracks on each disk. Debating if I should save my first listen, for a special day.

[@Claymore5]

I have Tubular Bells as my ringtone on my phone - I have never ever got tired of this album. I love the original - probably gets played every year since I first bought it. Ommadawn and Five Miles Out are the others that get the same treatment.

[@risingstar7161]

Redbone Witch Queen, remember this from 71 when I first seriously listened to music. Disappointed with Bad Co and burning sky when it came out but now think it better than run with the pack. Tracks you mention as special I couldn't agree more!

[@paulmorrison1325]

Another great show Phil, gosh Kiki Dee takes me back, many thanks! This week I've been listening to Tides from Nebula (mainly their latest album Instant Rewards - I love this band), Rebecca Downes - More Sinner Than Saint, Vinegar Joe - Rock 'N' Roll Gypsies, Tommy Bolin - Teaser (dragged this one out after going through some of your older videos!) and lastly Riverside's ID Live, although, as I only got this one yesterday it has only had a couple of spins!

[@windsurfer49]

Leslie West", one of Michael Schenkers Fav Players",

[@PSN489]

Good Evening , Kiki Dee ??? really ???. Play list this week : Magnum ' Live in Wolverhampton '. Scorpions ' Worldwide Live '. I have pre ordered Riverside's New Live Album. Stay Well and Be Lucky.

[@davecummo8743]

I’ve just played BOC Spectres and Paul McCartney Flaming Pie. Love this show

[@DurvalRodrigues-b9r]

Hello Phil , my week comprised of mostly albums that turned 50. Last night was Rush Caress of Steel, Scorpions In Trance, Gentle Giant Freehand, Kiss Alive, Thin Lizzy Fighting and throughout the week i just got Trapeze Medusa and Roy Orbison Crying. I finally found Gentle Giant giant for a day on vinyl I know this is not everyone's favorite but it completes my giant vinyl collection and i don't mind it like you said in a previous video about albums people hate, maybe you dislike it at the time but now many years later it sounds ok the music is fun not terrible.

[@MartynJones-o2m]

This week Thin Lizzy Acoustic Sessions, Budgie Life in San Antonio, Phil Mogg Moggs Hotel, Deep Purple A Fire in the Sky, Wishbone Ash Coat of Arms, Atomic Rooster Sleeping for Years. Thanks for Bad Co. Burning Sky now after a copy I thought it was a disaster at the time, fell asleep trying to get into it! but took a second hearing good album.

[@kenmorgan5999]

Another great video really enjoyed this. This week I been mostly listening to... ELO - Out Of The Blue, Face The Music, A New World Record & Time Bob Dylan - Dylan & The Dead Vangelis - Spiral & Albedo 0.39 Thin Lizzy - Thunder & Lightning & Vagabonds f The Western World Whitesnake - 1987 ZZ Top - Rancho Texacarno Queen - Queen 1 & A Night At The Opera

[@jonjackson5372]

You’ve inspired me to check out that Doors LP and revisit Bad Co. “Burning Sky”. I’m listening to Cats in Space “Fire in the Night”, “Diamonds”, and “Atlantis”(which just came today), Jimi Hendrix “Electric Lady Studios”, Exodus “Impact is Imminent” and Wind Wraith “The Fortune Teller’s Gaze”. I love that Testament album “Dark Roots of Earth”! Thanks for another fantastic play list video.

[@wolf1977]

HUGE thumbs up for Electric Lady Studios!

[@peterkelly5963]

Been listening to alot of Richard Thompson and Drive-By Truckers, Prog by The Paradox Twin and The Emerald Dawn.

[@wolf1977]

Thompson's Live At Rock City Nottingham 1986, Live From Honolulu, Amnesia & Acoustic Classics II are some personal favorites...

[@BobbyBass-x6i]

The Doors Weird Scenes inside the Goldmine is a great collection. I got the complete Doors remixed box set. A nice contrast to the original mixes I stream on Qobuz. Recommend getting different versions of physical music if you stream. Rock on Dr. Phil!

[@calummcgregor3662]

Uncanny ... the Kiki Dee box should be arriving tomorrow as I picked it up on ebay a couple of days ago [the Heart version of I've Got the Music in Me on Magazine is also great] ... and I've just finished buying up CD versions of the Steve Winwood studio catalogue [missing the 1977 debut] 'cause of the great melodic tunes ... saw Steve and his great band supporting Steely Dan in Glasgow [pre lock-down] and was genuinely taken by how good he was ... the Greatest Hits live album is fabulous .... that led me to re-visit Traffic [the same 5 CD set] ... I have the complete studio CD catalogue of UFO and, yes, the original CD did have additional re-makes on it - although, to be honest, it is not an album I re-visit too much [unlike the Paul Chapman era which I go back to regularly] ... recent acquisitions include : Gillian Welch / David Rawlings "Woodland", a 2015 remaster of Led Zeppelin "In Through the Out Door", new Steve Hackett live release recorded at Trading Boundaries, Adam Holmes limited CD release of "Survival" [great singer - songwrite from Edinburgh], the soundtrack [Qobuz stream] to "A Complete Unknown" - the movie about Dylan's early years [great - saw it once with Mrs McG, then a 2nd time with my 2x 27 year old daughters - to "educate" them - they enjoyed it] ... also Procol Harum "All This and More" box set ... and finally Chicago "Live at 55" - a genuinely awesome 2 CD set ... complete with Steve Vai et al .... Superb .... CMcG Aberdeen Scotland ... p.s. picked up the Robert Palmer Island box, tom Paxton 5xOriginals, Boz Scaggs' wonderful "Some Change", Jackson Browne "Standing in the Breach", T'Pau box Virgin Years" ... an eclectic mix .... p.p.s. and you can't really go wrong with Lee Ritenour .... love the Overtime CD [check out cover of Papa Was aRolling Stone]

[@chrisharper6088]

Picked up 3+3, by The Esley Brothers following last month's show, going to start picking up more from mid 70's to 80's, buying and playing Sons Of Champlin, 7 albums over 2 releases, featuring the great Bill Champlin, then to the other extreme, Black Midi, Igorrr the French amazing musican even his chicken is talented, plus an album that missed out in 2024, by Octoploid, which features members of Amorphis, looks from the cover a stoner rock album but actually melodic death prog metal, new genre?, with a splattering of clean vocals every now and then, well recommended.

[@polishplatini273]

Hi Phil nice selection of music and suggestions to check and listen .Last week I paid a tribute to John Sykes and listened to Thunder and Lightning 2cd especially second one and live from Sweden 1983 (not so great)but with one song I was shocked,guess which one? Greetings from 🇨🇦

[@craigryan3069]

This week I have mostly been listening to: Ten Man Mop, Or Mr Reservoir Butler Rides Again (Steeleye Span); Death Walks Behind You (Atomic Rooster) and Godbluff (Van Der Graaf Generator).

[@andrewlongshaw2128]

Hi Phil. As a tribute to John, Whitesnake and Thin Lizzy . Himlabacken I and II by Moon Safari. Sin After Sin by Judas Priest. Moving Pictures, Rush and finally Ian Hunter's Defiance pt II.

[@iansadler7755]

Phil, As you know, I'm a big Wishbone Ash and Cats In Space fan, so you might be surprised that I've been playing heavier material of late. My mate told me about a Christian band from Lancaster called Wytch Hazel. Described as a 'cross between Jethro Tull, Wishbone Ash and Led Zeppelin'. Really good band with lots of riffs. This led me to another band called Green Lung, described as 'doom stoner'. Amazingly, I've taken to them as well. Recommend both bands to you. As regards new material, I have two vinyls on order, Curious Ruminant by Tull and Dreams On Toast by The Darkness (in Christmas splatter, no less !!). Finally, you may have seen the advert for the Madfish produced Wishbone Ash BBC boxset, coming out at the end of March. I wonder if you'll indulge in that one ?.....😊 Cheers Ian

[@JimFlood-o5b]

Last week I was listening to: Magnum - Live At KK's Steel Mill DCD/DVD Downes Braide Association - Dreaming of England EP / Live In England CD/DVD / Celestial Songs LP Phil Campbell And The Bastard Sons - Kings Of The Asylum CD Dream Theater - Score TCD/2DVD Deep Purple - Long Beach 1976 CD Alan Parsons - From The New World CD / Eye In The Sky LP/CD Eclipse - Megalomanium II CD

[@wolf1977]

Deep Purple/Long Beach 1976 - anything Bolin is AOK with me

[@wolf1977]

The Ritenour/Larry Carlton teamup Live On Wowow Tokyo, 1995 is really good. I like some of his mid 70's stuff but generally too jazzy/laid back for me, I prefer a more fusiony/less jazzy style...Redbone = "Come And Get Your Love"...One kinda surprising thing: No 2025 albums for me yet, nothing has appealed to me so far. Lotsa older stuff though: Prashant Aswani - quality fusion/early 2000's Phil Manzanera - weird discography but listening to the collection 50 Years Of Music: 1975 - 1982 Rarities Delroy Wilson - one of those original Jamaican reggae stars now forgotten by many. spinning Better Must Come (The Anthology) Speaking of 60's/70's psyche: Deep In The Woods (Pastoral Psychedelia & Funky Folk 1968-1975) And on the prog side: One Way Glass: Dancefloor Prog, Brit Jazz & Funky Folk 1968-1975 Osmosis - s/t 1970 prog Glad/Feelin' Glad - 1968 psyche Brenton Wood/Baby, You Got It! The 1960's Anthology - quality Soul The Rubble Collection Volumes 1-20 - this is totally loaded with great unknown 60's/70's psyche! Same for Miles Out To Sea (The Roots Of British Power Pop 1969-1975) and Piccadilly Sunshine Volumes 1 - 10 (A Compendium Of Rare Pop Curios From The British Psychedelic Era) Airbus/Test Flight - wonderful early 70's psyche band Phillip Googhand-Tait - this may be a surprise but the band Camel, before issuing albums as a band, auditioned to be this guy's 'backup band'. 1971's I Think I'll Write A Song was the result. His collection Gone Are The Songs Of Yesterday: Complete Recordings 1970-1973 is also good Ginger - s/t - 1973 psyche The Roulettes/Stakes And Chips - 1965 rock in the mod style The Act/Too Late At 20 - 1981 New Wave Eyes Of Blue/Crossroads Of Time - 1968 psyche Viva/Automobile Downstairs - 1977 rock The Hitmen/Aim For The Feet & Torn Together - early 80s New Wave The Rising Storm/Calm Before... - 1967 psyche

[@Mikesmallfanclub]

Hi Phil great choice of music must revisit dog of two head again one I haven’t played for many years, all I’ve been playing this week nonstop is a band called Forgotten Pharaohs King of Mirrors a excellent album if you haven’t heard it yet give it a spin and imo worth a review, cheers Phil.

[@christopherdavies3079]

I recommend if you haven’t heard it the Stevie Winwood album called “About Time “ which includes a great cover of “ Why can’t we live together “ by Timmy Thomas . This album came out after the “ Roll with it “ album featured by Phil in this review .

[@neillbarrett4959]

I've been playing transatlantic and caravan.

[@SJHUE]

Hi Phil, just wanted to comment quickly as I have literally just watched a video of a soundtrack song by Kiki Dee called `Another Side of Me` from a movie called `The Legacy` from 1978. When I watched the movie a few years ago (for the first time in many years)I really enjoyed the song but couldn`t quite place the vocalist? Slightly surprised when Kiki`s name came up on the opening credits and thought to myself I really should have known that! Instantly bought two double cd`s covering four of her albums one of which is the album you feature on this video. Highly recommended I`d say and well worth having in your collection. Btw that soundtrack song is sadly practically unavailable anywhere that I can see unless you happen to be able to find a rare cd copy of the soundtrack which I thankfully did. The soundtrack composer is Michael J. Lewis.

[@shaunogle530]

Still working through McCoy Tyner discography. His double album COSMOS is compelling and even includes an oboe played in jazz form and a string quartet. Also playing Jesse Colin Young Lightshine and Songbird. Tubular Bells every week, wow! I’m in a minority of about three as I prefer HERGEST Ridge.

[@1beatlemann]

I’ve been checking out the new Ringo “Look Up”, played Van Halen “Balance” and “20th Century Collection” from Bill Haley and the Comets

[@BanalayerPete1972]

I'd bet Deep Purple are the band/artist with the most compilation albums in rock history, and I'm sad enough to collect them all! 24 Carat Purple was my first one, and it's Mk.2 at their most classic, with photos of all the albums up to Stormbringer. Singles A's & B's, from '78, introduced Emmaretta and Hallellujah for the first time, but also gave us the sombre and nicely unsettling Speed King (piano), which gave me the chills. At the end of '78, When We Rock, We Rock, and When We Roll, We Roll (a good title which sums up Purple as a full-on in a good way band) has a great cover by the Japanese "ELO Spaceship" artist, and goes from Hush to Burn via Mk.2. If it had Wild Dogs (live), and a second disc of 1984 - 2025 tracks, it'd be perfect.

[@wolf1977]

I'd bet that The Beatles have the most comps but yeah, DP has many

[@andyg7781]

A variety for me - your (great) choice of Steve Winwood inspired me to dig out one of his earlier albums-back in the high life. Also spinning this week Breaking Benjamin again ( going through their catalogue), as well as Screaming for Vengeance-Juda Priest; and Steve Perry - Traces. Not my favourite of his, but when it came out a few years ago I was just so happy to hear his voice again after a good few years 🤟🏻

[@wolf1977]

For Perry there was also Traces - Alternate Versions & Sketches from 2020. The acoustic/stripped down version of Traces

[@DavidEndersby]

I need to dig out that Doors album

[@martinleedham]

Some great stuff as usual. Is there anything extra on that Kiki Dee box. I never bothered with it because I have all the albums but it looks quite nice from that quick glimpse. I'm with you on Burning Sky, after the first 3 it is a bit of a step down. I have a feeling some of the stuff was leftover from earlier sessions. Like Water certainly started life as a Peace track in 1971 and the original version is on the Songs Of Yesterday box set. Rodgers co-wrote it with his first wife (she is the Shimizu on the credits). The band must have thought it was a good album though as they played lots of it live as you can see from the double live CD from 77 and 79. Most of it got cut for the 79 set though.

[@jasonjones8178]

I like iron maiden saxon

[@brianoakley980]

Now then..I have to say that I've never been really into the Doors to be honest ..sigh..but that doesn't mean I think they're no good, just dont get under my skin?. This week though Melissa Etheridge Brave and Crazy, Weather Systems Oceans without a Shore, Alan Hull Pipedream, Kamelot Black Halo, Haken The Mountain, Mountain Climbing, Capability Brown Voice and Pictures at an Exhibition ELP...eclectic or what!!!

[@rimaxxamir1774]

Not much listening this week, 3-4 albums: Mendes Prey - The Never Ending Road; Fist - Turn The Hell On; Iron Maiden - The Book Of Souls; Marillion - Script For A Jesters Tear

[@duncanleith9172]

The week began with the hugely disappointing new Dylan biopic (don't believe the hype) and improved steadily thereafter with the help of the Stones, Rory Gallagher, Warren Zevon, Blind Willie McTell, Molly Tuttle and the real Dylan.

[@H0LT-85]

This week I’ve been obsessed with this album from Tetragrammacide m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqfcp4Nmf7uid7M&pp=ygUadGV0cmFncmFtbWFjaWRlIGZ1bGwgYWxidW0%3D

[@50milliondownthedraintonym16]

I've been listening to Alcatraz, Slade and MSG. I've got Saxon and Andy Leek lined up for next week. I just read mojo magazine and heard Andy had passed away last November. Andy was the original keyboard player in Dexy's Midnight Runner's and had a solo career. I knew Andy at Walsall college in 1980 for a little while just after he had left Dexy's, a few weeks before Geno got to number one and was waiting on a solo deal.
