2012 45 rpm 1st playing

Christmas 1966.  We got it in SoCal before the rest of the country.

2012 2 X 12" 45 RPM 200 gram vinyl.  Have all of them except for Soft Parade.

Just cracked the seal on this even though its been sitting for a year in the pile of things to get to.  Time for some comfort food.

I so well remember the summer in SoCal when this came out.  They were our house band.  This is their trippiest album, imho.  

1980 US repress

1977 Germany

1973 1st press.  Has the only song in the RP library.  Let's Get The Show On The Road.

1973 1st   POC Pride Of Cleveland  Joe Walsh is all over this album.

The song Rosewood Bitters came from this album.  Everyone thinks it is about drinking.  The Rosewood actually refers to the fretboard.

1973 UK pressing

1975 Japanese Promo 1st  wake and bake session ripping comfort food

Shit howdy, shut the door, don't let go ...

So who sez you can't put 32:07 of quality audio on an album side ?  Bullshit, they either aren't up to it or don't know what they are doing.

Please do. I seems to see that you're fed up with negative comments by other posters here.  Easily understood.  You can't get any more apprecitation  from an outside than yer willing to pay yourself from your own inside. One can only give as much as one is being able to take in. (Goes for Love, especially.)

Thanks.  yeppers  I'm consciously trying to do this.  To channel my efforts into something that brings me joy and personal reward, selfish that it is. 

It's not easy to maintain the mood required, but one good riff is all it takes sometimes.  It will be my salvation as I struggle through all of this.


I did put up my long ago done but unlaunched Love Bomb for Triskele for a digital download in the mixtape thread the other day but took it down during all the flame wars of the past several days.  I could put it back up if anyone is interested.

good to see you digging into the vinyl collection while hunkered down, I need to do the same.

US 1st  Just found it again. Finally going to compare this with the Page Remaster to see how he did with it.  This is a pretty steep hill to beat.

from the box set

2018 EU  Getting started.  1st LP (CCR) sounds pretty good so far.

2017 EU Steven Wilson Mix   Seem to be collecting SW mixes lately ...

2018 press of the 2008 stereo mix.  Did get to see the tour in Cleveland's Music Hall back then.  A nice 3,000 seat venue.  

2014 EU press
