1001 Albums Summary

Really enjoyed this album. Without You was one of my Mum's favourite songs, so a bit of a nostalgia fest.

I was slow to get to Massive Attack in the early 90s, but when I finally got there, the mash up of genres and collaborations wowed me. In many ways, a groundbreaking album, and arguably not their best.

An album defined by one tune, a great tune at that

To paraphrase LCD Soundsystem, Daft Punk is not Playing At My House - too much repetition

I knowledge this is a classic of the genre

Not too familiar with The Replacements. Reminded me of The Stray Cats. Liked it

Lots of hip hop on 1001 so far. This felt like entry level, with a melodic background. Enjoyed it.

This album just didn't grab me

Rugby, wine, kiwifruit, Crowded House, some of the many things NZ has given the world. This is an excellent pop album.

Anthems

Not my thing, although I'll avoid the temptation to say it's a musical crime

Jazz, Niiiice

Some classic tunes

There's a limit to songs about loneliness, pine trees and broken hearts...

There aren't many great drummers who became great singer/songwriters, but Dave Grohl is one. This transition from the back of the stage with Nirvana to front stage with Foo Fighters is an impressive album. Some powerful songs.

At the more melodic end of the hip hop spectrum

I enjoyed this album, as much for the re-working of some familiar tunes as anything, and, like De La Soul, on the melodic end of the hip hop spectrum. But, now hoping for some 1001 variety

Some welcome grunge and a fantastic album to boot

The Bees is a new band for me. All a bit vanilla

I bet we'd all look good on the dance floor

Probably REM at their best

Played in the car while driving north yesterday. I enjoyed it, but Maggie not so sure!

Should be dancing in a field listening to this, really enjoyed it.

An album salvaged by one of the best pop songs ever written

All killer, no filler

I'm not sure I've listened to this entire album before. Thoroughly enjoyed it, what a magical voice she has

Enjoyed the variety and funky sounds

My knowledge of Bob Dylan is, at best, patchy. I don't think I've listened to this album in its entirety until now, and what a great album it is. I like the rootsy folk sound and melodies. I read a couple of reviews which provided some context for the heartfelt, angry lyrics.

A test of an album in the 1001 listening format for me is whether I'll make room to listen again. Kind of Blue falls into this category

NOISE

Good to hear Running Free again

Fighting for the right to party

I enjoyed listening to the Everly Brothers and hadn't realised that they first recorded Love Hurts. But as Maggie commented, its a bit samey.

Didn't manage to listen to the whole album, but what I did hear, calm melodies and interesting lyrics

I didn't get all the way through this album. What I did hear was chaotic, and a bit proggy in places

Great to hear this again, some dancing for new year's eve

The transition from The Jam at the time was tricky and some people reacted against Paul Weller and The Style Council. I wasn't one of them. Great album

Driven along by the Burundi beat, great to hear again. Oh to be a first year student

Meandering prog

A great collection of their songs and covers. I didn't know until now that it was released the day JFK was assassinated

Van the Man, master of Celtic Soul. Excellent album.

Quirky and listenable, although perhaps a relief that he didn't complete an album for all 50 States.

To quote Andy, leaves me a bit cold, but salvaged by Mr Stewart

One of Radiohead's best albums, although I cannot remember what I paid at the time.

A sad yet uplifting album with some beautiful songs, orignals and covers. It is a stunning debut made all the more poignant because the second never came.

Thoroughly enjoyed Solid Air, perfect Sunday morning listening

Enjoyed the stripped, rawness of this

Repetitive

Excellent album which demonstrates the versatility of PS

So short, I listened twice and completed my 48 year reappraisal. Great cover of You Really Got Me, and Runnin' With The Devil leads you in nicely. Apologies to Jess M from VIth Form for me not being more receptive at the time. It's not that far from punk rock after all.

A reference point for many on their music journey, but not one of mine. That said, I enjoyed the trip back to the early 70s.

You can always rely on The Lemonheads

A curate's egg. Three great songs but I can leave the reminder

First time listening to this album, and the last

Tom Petty was deemed an alternative, fresh sound in the mid 70s. These things are all relative

It remains a mystery to me that at the time, U2 became one of the biggest bands in the World and Echo and the Bunnymen didn't. Better songs, better musicians... Porcupine and War were released in the same month in 1983. Compare and contrast.

Includes a couple of great Pulp songs but not a different class

This album placed me in the inter-tidal music zone, ebbing and flowing between early 70s soft rock and mid/late 70s punk, thus between 2 and 4 stars. I finished on the latter.

Taking electronica into the mainstream

I enjoyed an upbeat Joni Mitchell

I like John Grant in relatively small doses. The songs on Queen of Denmark are cathartic and I enjoyed listening

Harmless, innocuous, safe, forgettable but saved a bit by Yellow, the tune which launched them into the musical stratosphere

I rated Court and Spark as 4 star, so this has to be 5.

Too many reminders of Snow Patrol in here

The Police past their best, but still a good album

My own personal Jesus. A moving and evocative collection of songs as he neared the end of his life. Close to perfection

Pompous stadium rock

The album showcases the joy and sorrow of The Pogues. Poignant lyrics, beautiful songs, then party anthems. And Fairytale of New York takes this into 5 star territory for me.

Dreamy melodies evoking sun, sea and surf boards. But like The Beach Boys, it becomes a bit repetitive

I got to the end and enjoyed this album more than expected, up to a point. I can see the Led Zep comparison and the lineage to Nirvana. In short though, too screamy and repetitive

Old skool punk rock. Gary Gilmore's Eyes did not feature on the original. One of the memorable punk anthems.

It's the picture of Rodney Marsh in the fireplace which firmly plants this in the 5 star category. A great debut album which I associate with the onset of parenthood. It sounds as good today.

I should say so! Britpop at its finest and Alright is one of the iconic tunes of the genre.

I broke my own rule and read some reviews before voting. The quote from Rolling Stone that "Tom Waits finds more beauty in the gutter than most people would find in the Garden of Eden" (or words to that effect) captures it.

A great pop/crossover album. Took me back to the heady days of the late 80s. The eponymous Faith is probably my favourite track.

Sweet soul sound

Melancholy songs which bring tears to the eyes

Didn't enjoy it first time and no better now. Not even saved by the Ealing connections

Not quite The Ramones

An ambitious album which works in places. XTC was an unusual band, responsible for some great songs.

New to me and it will take a few more listens

I really wanted to enjoy this album, but on first listen, it didn't fire. I will listen again.

I'm in the camp that likes Paul Simon's ventures into different musical genres. Not quite Graceland, but great songs and songwriting nevertheless.

Soul Mining sits comfortably among the defining synth-pop albums of the early 1980s, think Dare, Vienna, Speak and Spell. The (reinvented) Human League, Ultravox and Depeche Mode became huge, The The didn't. The recognition of their influence has been retrospective. Uncertain Smile and This is the Day are pop classics.

This has always been a favourite of Maggie's, indeed she owns a vinyl copy. So, this is a joint vote. There's some great songs, timeless classics. Songbird alone merits 5 stars.

Not an album I recall listening to before, so probably needs another go (so much music, so little time). However it didn't really grab me and not salvaged by the Nirvana covers in the MTV session.

Mick Ralphs passing in 2025 didn't make MC's final list in January. His influence is apparent here. An excellent album.

Large it. Throwing some great shapes.

Nice melodies which stand the test of time

Mozza remains a sharp lyricist despite his unfortunate mutterings post-Smiths. This is a great collection of songs.

I'm awarding 3 stars for Nick Heyward et al. There's nothing too serious about this album, instead enjoyable jangly pop and lightweight jazz funk. Wear your favourite shirt and yellow jumper and have a fantastic day.

Chvrches' albums never quite match their live performances IMO, although the synth-pop and loops make for enjoyable listening. Lauren Mayberry's lyrics often strike a sharp contrast to the upbeat sound.

Accessible rap sticking it to.the man

Not at their best but good nonetheless

Another great album from that seminal year, 1977

Peter Gabriel at his best, enhanced by numerous collaborations. A wonderful album.

Joyous dancing in a field music

Why does this album remind me of Paul?

Not a fan of Brian Wilson post Beach Boys. Sadly, a pale imitation

Jason Pierce always intrigues.

Working from memory, groundbreaking and inventive at the time

Set aside the Roxy Music comparisons and enjoy this album in its own right. Great to hear again after such a long time.

New to me. A pale imitation of The Who

Fab Four at their best

I didn't know this album, so tried to listen with an open mind. That closed quite quickly. Some potentially interesting collaborations even though I've never really got the Divine Comedy, but didn't work for me.

Took me to cloud nine, a couple of stand-out classics

Others cite him as a key influence, but not me

Classy lady

MC and 1001 have encouraged me to challenge various musical prejudices, Led Zeppelin being one. It must have been an explosive debut album at the time.

Juju is up there among the best punk / post-punk albums. John McGeoch's guitar shines through and is perhaps as characteristic of the band's sound as the voice of Siouxsie Sioux.

I struggled with this album and didn't complete listening. It jumps around, it lost me

A great collection of songs, far superior to the Like a Virgin era.

The album that did temporarily mark their disintegration. The high, or perhaps low, point of the Cure. A classic

Chaotic, relentless, uncompromising- love it!

I've never felt more like singing the blues when City win and United lose...go Muddy

Listened while in the car, so I was not givingthe music my full attention. What I heard was variable, a strong start which petered out. John Peel was a huge fan while at his most influential. But not really for me.

Some great songs on this album but a fair bit of filler too. It's a long album as a consequence and I found myself drifting into other thoughts.

Obviously there's a Mozza fan lurking in the 1001 editorial team. Four albums, really? This lacks the bite of You Are The Quarry and mostly feels like a pale imitation of The Smiths. That said, there are a couple of stand-out tracks, Everyday is Like Sunday and Suedehead

I feel I should have enjoyed this more than I did, perhaps another listen is required. While guitar-driven, I enjoyed the funky, afrobeat components, but it all felt a bit jumbled. File under listen again.

The last knockings of Brit Pop and it shows. This lacks the dynamism and excitement of what went before, and sounds a bit sad and rambling. Perhaps that was what was intended

My Led Zeppelin discovery continues apace. I like the contrast between the rocky first half of this album, which reinforces my preconceptions, and the folky, acoustic second half.

I a big fan of Little Simz, so four stars automatically. She played a wonderful show at EOTR in 2021 coinciding with Sometimes I Might Be Extrovert, which is a five star album. Grey Area displays her talents as a rapper with acute social observation.

Haunting and stark, stripping away the arena-rock sound to reveal raw, folk-driven storytelling. Solemn vocals and grim, honest stories of American desperation, so still relevant over four decades later, and a timely antidote to five pints of Landlord.

I owe this album for two things. First, my introduction to The National. I was slow onto the band, my discovery coming with High Violet. Second, they headlined Latitude in 2011, the year I returned to music festivals. This is a beautiful collection of songs, driven by the drums and bass of the Devendorf brothers, the guitars of the Dessner brothers, and Matt Berninger's baritone. And is there a better pop song than Bloodbuzz Ohio? Five stars for an album which is arguably not even their best.

A real mix up of sounds and rhythms and great songwriting. I like the range on show.

An album almost as old as me and one not especially familiar, despite various familiar songs. Neither had I appreciated the significance and impact of the fusion of soul and country at the time. I thoroughly enjoyed listening while varnishing the pergola in the April sunshine

Is this a joke?

I think Lorde stands above many of her singer-songwriter contemporaries. This is a great collection of pop songs, driven by heartfelt lyrics.

Inoffensive bubbly pop songs. From the Trans-Tasman rivalry perspective, not up there with the New Zealand contemporaries.

A glam rock masterpiece spanning anthemic rockers like Get It On to melancholic tunes like Cosmic Dancer. Boogie meets folk meets sleaze, an electrifying sound which inspired a generation.

This gets lost in the sea (geddit?) of late 90s jangly, indie pop and as a consequence, sounds like many other bands of the time. Captain's Table is great song but not enough to lift the album above 2 stars.

Probably the album that first cemented American R&B in British blues rock. Essentially a covers collection show-casing the guitar interplay of Keith Richards and Brian Jones. A portent of what was to come, music shaking the British establishment.

I didn't really get Michael Jackson at the time and that hasn't changed

A wonderfully chaotic collection of songs from a band falling apart at the seams. It balances jagged guitars with tender, poetic lyricis, the influence of Mick Jones being very apparent. Can't Stand Me Now is a painful duet which documents the fallout of Pete Doherty and Carl Barât, and a song I managed to squeeze into the Fielding Primary School PTA Quiz during my 11-year stint as co-quizmaster.

I was not familiar with this artist nor album which reflects my paucity of knowledge of hip hop. This quickly lost me. The intricate lyrics and sci-fi atmosphere left me cold.

OK in small doses, but over two hours... Transparency, I didn't get to the end.

I was expecting something more akin to Air, only to encounter multiple samples. All a bit incoherent but OK once I got into the groove.

This took some time, but eventually it clicked for me. It's all a bit doom and gloom, although some light does creep in. It started with one star and ended with three.

Some good songs and some not so good. The environmental theme is well-intentioned but clunky. It feels like the band was running out of steam.

Is Low a high point, probably. Not my favourite album of his, but still a work of genius.

A raw, visceral album from an angry band. The angst of Richey James is evident and the songs sound like them prophesying his subsequent disappearence.

An enjoyable blend of gospel, post-punk with touches of jazz, electronica and some slick guitar. All this, with a capella thrown in.

Even noise rock needs some simple things like structure and a touch of melody, both absent here. I checked to see if they have ever played at 2000 Trees, but seems not. They would fit well on the Cave Stage on a wet Friday afternoon. Enough said.

Anodyne stadium rock with cringeworthy lyrics. Only Beautiful Day moves it from one to two stars.

Enjoyable stuff and classic Bob Dylan, but a bit too long

Music with a heartfelt message and his famous middle finger. Protest music at its best

Arcadia meets property purchase meets swinging 60s, it wears a bit thin for me.

Sums up my relationship with jazz

A great album mixing genres and driven by Shirley Manson's slightly scary lyrics and style. It flowed against the mid-90s indie tide and great to listen again.

This is a masterpiece. Not many artists can carry an eleven-minute title track as effectively as Television. Another album from that seminal year.

Another masterpiece. No sophomore slump with this album.

I was not familiar with the album nor the film. I'll now watch the latter. Soulful and funky, a great collection of songs which obviously tell a story.

Energetic Scandi noise, high octane in smart suits.

Two albums for the price of one, displaying the incredible range of Nick Cave and Warren Ellis. What a joy.

Another Curtis Mayfield album that is new to me. The combination of funky guitars, his falsetto voice and social commentary is a joy to behold. Great album artwork too.

Taking funk to outer space

Almost 25 years on and America is still corrupt.Heavy Metal + Hip Hop = Rage

Enjoyable enough but becomes repetitive

As with much of David Bowie's, this is a mixed bag. There is no stand-out track and some of it meanders. In contrast, there's the feeling of a genius at work.

Derivative and dull

The title track alone warrants 5 stars. A wonderfully melancholic and angry album, mixing acoustic and electric. Possibly Neil Young at his best

A-wop-bop-a-loo-mop-a-lop-bam-boom! The foundation of rock and roll.

Some standout tracks on a bluesy-soaked album. I gave it two bank holiday listens. Why hasn't You Can't Always Get What You Want become a football anthem in the vein of Hey Jude?

Feels like 101 other things I've listened to over the years and I'm left asking what's the point of this album? Dull proggy-like rock which does not hold my attention.

An album to stir memories of the late 1980s. It sounds as powerful today. The album was a stunning debut and Fast Car is a fabulous song. I haven't tracked Tracy Chapman since, so it was a joy to return to her eponymous work.

After two listens, I'm beginning to get it. Fairport's Cropredy Convention here we come.

A concept country album sounds ominous but I was pleasantly surprised. Thr stripped-back feel chimes with my perception of country music.

Heartbreak, glamour, romance, one of the soundtracks of the 80s produced by the man who invented the 80s.

"Teenage nostalgia, although objectively I would never play this album. As background music, it reminds me of my formative years, but it shouldn't see the light of day today"

Excellent title track, great preparation for a day in the hills.

While a very listenable album, it doesn't have the raw emotion and energy of his earlier albums.

"Shows the versatility and breadth of The Beatles' music. At this late stage of their career, it's an exemplary demonstration of their immense talent and innovation. Includes such memorable tracks as Something (the only Beatles song sung by Frank Sinatra) and Here Comes The Sun. It also includes an astonishing medley of half finished tracks which blend together brilliantly, finishing with the line the love you take is equal to the love you make, the epitome of the 60s vibe"

So, so, although Fame and Young Americans comfortably take this into 3 star territory

Never have been a great fan of The Pixies, and this hasn't altered my view.

Gloomy, miserable, the end of post-punk Cure. This much Paul and I agreed upon, however, he scored 2 stars, me 4. So we compromised on 3.

Give me Numan over Freud. I enjoyed listening to this after such a long.time. It was a ground-breaking album in the dying embers of punk, synths replacing guitars. It will never catch on. Lots of doom and introspection. Cars and Metal are the stand out tracks.

Permission not to listen.

Uplifting swing from Frankie and his big band. Great sound.

This capped a day of jazz having been at Meltdown in the afternoon for Kamasi Washington's tribute to Miles Davies, John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins.

Judas! Road music at its best.

Not a great fan of the Pixies. All a bit samey.

What a singer

I enjoyed this album much more than I anticipated (the joy of 1001). Her version of Longsong reveals similarities with Robert Smith, evident in her song writing - beauty in pain and sadness. An unexpected 4 stars.

The third incarnation of Mr Weller and a return to some of the things which characterised the sound of the Jam.

All things 1980s - synth pop, high production video, compelling cover artwork, catchy tunes. The MTV generation in a nutshell. This album gave us some iconic pop songs, but overall it's bland and derivative.

One of the albums that is referenced by so many as an influence. It's long and self-indulgent at times. I listened while driving and found my mind wandering to other thoughts. That said, I recognise the impact of some of the songs

I enjoyed this album. While wary of drawing parallels with other bands, it reminded me of the Durutti Column (will they appear in 1001?). It fuses various influences to create hypnotic electronic dance rhythms.

My knowledge of Mekons was restricted to their early punk ramblings, characterised by basic musicianship and angry lyrics. Therefore this came as a suprise, venturing into pastures new. It didn't grab me, but two stars for the pivot.

Another 3 star Bowie album. The title track is one of the best pop songs ever written, but the remainder is a mixed bag.

Bloated and rambling, didn't complete the life journey of SF Sorrow.

Grunnnnnge

Hip-hopping around the genres. Excellent album by a virtual band

This took me all over the place as the artist seems to take on the world. At its heart though is a very listenable album.

As relevant today as in 1986, probably The Smiths at their peak. The trademark interplay of Johnny Marr's layered guitar playing and Morrisey's witty, self-deprecating lyrics. And the Queen is dead.

New artist to me. The songs didn't hold my attention, nor the angsty lyrics.

Made for a very chilled Sunday morning listen and met with approval at home.

Sweet Child O'Mine and Welcome to the Jungle are the popular, stand-out tracks, but a great album all round. Slash's guitar and the voice of Axel Rose create this instantly recognisable sound. Is Sweet Child O'Mine the most covered song of all time?

A fish in the sea of early naughties indie, but set apart by the melancholic shoegaze. Listening again, I feel I should have enjoyed this more than I did.

The Fall at their gloriously chaotic best. Sharp lyrics, guttural delivery, driven along with fury. Only another 30 albums to imbibe.

Didn't reach the highs of 1978 Van Halen. Despite Jump, which is a catchy song, too much screeching and questionable lyrics leave this in one star territory.

The Police's interpretation of white reggae never achieved the critical accalim of The Clash. Perhaps that's because the latter was better at it, or that Joe Strummer was deemed more cool than Sting. I liked both interpretations. This is a great collection of pop songs and probably The Police at their peak.

Music for the season, really enjoyed this

There She Goes is a catchy pop song, instantly familiar and the calling card of The La's. I was much less familiar with the rest of the album. It's an enjoyable collection of tunes.

Boy, she can sing. This is a wonderful collection of soul ballards from one of Ealing's finest. There are a couple of duff tracks, but more than offset by the remainder. Is her version of Anyone Who Has a Heart better than Dionne Warwick? Discuss

An exceptional album, beautiful song writing superbly delivered

Five stars even before I listened again. Punk-Funk-Techno-Dance Rock supporting lyrics about ageing.

Pleasant enough ambient music

This didn't surprise or engage me in the way 21 did. It feels like rolling out more of the same, perhaps the songs that didn't make the first cut.

I did not know Laura Nyro. I enjoyed her soulful sound and the blend of jazz, folk and soul. Enjoyable enough but not an album I'll rush back to.

It's been a long time since I listened to Horses. Portrayed as the first punk rock album, it is raw and stripped back, with poetic, angry and compelling narratives.

The influence of this album cannot be underestimated but the tracks which it comprises are repetitive and dull. However 1001 has prompted me to search out the film of the album which I don't recall seeing when released.

An enjoyable collection of instrumentals, mostly covers, with the standout Green Onions. The characteristic sound of the Hammond organ shines through

A second day of instrumentals peppered with covers, although perhaps more accurately referred to as sampling. This became repetitive quite quickly

Only managed a couple of songs,didn't grab me

Dancin' the night away, well mid- morning actually

I couldn't download the album, but from what I know of BPB I anticipate sad, sad, sad, and beautiful. So a shot in the dark 3 stars

I'm hipped-hopped out...

Sepultura would sit comfortably at 2000 Trees and I have it on good authority that the promoters have tried to book them, without success. Time has run out as it seems the band is about to call it a day. No loss as far as I'm concerned.

Competent and harmless enough, but reminds why and how in the mid-70s the arrival of punk changed music for me.

Pleasant enough dream pop with echoes of the Cocteau Twins and Mazzy Star, but not matching the highs of either.

A modern soul classic dripping with sadness and heartbreak. Wonderful song writing delivered with searing honesty.

It's not a promising sign when an album starts with an Overture, but I got past it. I enjoyed the country-ish, Lou Reed-ish sound.

Pop songs relecting the heady days of the early 80s. These songs moved new romanticism from the periphery to the mainstream, losing some edge along the way. An enjoyable assembly of catchy tunes and videos and it was a pleasure to listen again.

Post punk twangy guitars find a tune. This is a great collection of pop songs presented with style and cool. I enjoyed the return to FF's debut album.

I consulted my son about this album. He remains a big fan of Dizzee Rascal and suggested a high rating. I really wanted to enjoy Boy In Da Corner but found my attention waned quite quickly. I've landed on three stars in recognition of DR's contribution to UK grime even though it's not my thing.

While this album contains some catchy tunes and interesting mixes of genres, overall it is rambling and chaotic. I lost interest towards the end.

When is a rock opera not a rock opera? When it's Who's Next. Listening from start to finish leaves the feeling of a missing story linking the individual components, which is no surprise given the album's origins and the proximity to Tommy. The excellent Baba O'Reilly and Won't Get Fooled Again create a Who sandwich whose filling sometimes lacks a bit of flavour.

"Raunchy mix of demented gibberish, blaring sax, and explosive swing, which rocked as hard as anything released at the time." Took the words out of my mouth.

When an album pops up on 1001 which has not crossed my radar, I'm reminded of how much music has passed me by. I guess that's the point of the exercise. White Light is in this category. I was captivated by this album, mixing folk and country, held together by a singer-songwriter performing with genuine feeling.

An album which has echoed down the generations and whose influence is apparent across a wide musical canvas. And a great collection of songs. It's up there with Rubber Soul.

Lots to absorb with this blending of rock and jazz delivered by musicians at the top of their game. It meanders at times, as did I.

High energy beats, jazz and funk in manageable chunks, harnessing rage in the rich tradition of protest songs.

The Slits never claimed great musicianship but in a way that was the idea. A groundbreaking band whose lineage is evident today. The dub reggae influence infuses the album, epitomised by Typical Girls, the standout track.

Stark, raw, angry and not a particularly pleasurable listen. The album's strength lies in its simplicity, from lyrics through to production, although it's a poor relation to Imagine.

This album probably requires more time than I have given it. Sampling makes the experience muddled and stilted, masking some interesting fragments of jazz, funk and rock.

There must be a Sonic Youth fan lurking in 1001 as we still have others to come, including Daydream Nation. Goo launched SY into mainstream consciousness, including mine. Noise and rage, catchy guitar twanging, visceral lyrics, the SY trademarks, and, of course, the coolest woman in rock and roll. Looking again at the cover artwork and dialogue, it is in bad taste IMO, but this has not affected by star rating.

Neo-prog pop melodies, with some country and death metal thrown in. Jumping around genres makes for an interesting album, but my attention wandered. I'll aim to see them at the upcoming EOTR Festival, but my attention may wander.

Up to now, Boston was not much more than a feeling to me. I enjoyed this piece of Americana complete with some boogie woogie. Great instrumental combinations, although not always supported by great lyrics. I didn't have room for this in 1976, so it's good to make some space 50 years later.
