I also enjoyed the Kansas album that came out before Leftoverture. Masque was less known, but every bit as complex. “Two Cents Worth”

July 1997 List

1. Led Zeppelin- (No change)
2. Boston (No change)
3. Rush (+3)
4. Aerosmith (-1)
5. Emerson Lake and Palmer (-1)
6. ZZ Top (+2)

18. Alice Cooper (New)
19. Black Sabbath (-1)
20. Ted Nugent (-1)

Vinyl/Tapes added- None

Concert:  Rick Derringer and Alice Cooper - July 1, 1977

Let me start with a preface...  As you have seen on these lists, I had quite an admiration for AC and especially his  stage show, which still to this day is among the best in rock history.   With that, I wanted to make sure I got a front row (literally) seat to the event, and got there early to stand in place front and center to the stage.  Derringer played his hits in about a 45 minute set with no problems.  Everybody got to see Rock and Roll Hoochie Too

When AC entered the stage, the crowd surged forward, and by the first 1/3 of the first song, I among several others were severely pinned against the plank of the stage.  It felt like my lungs were getting crushed, and every breath was a ghasp of almost nothing.  When someone finally noticed on stage, an  individual came out and started screaming....   Everyone on the Floor 2 steps back NOW!!!!...  Everyone on the Floor 3 Steps back NOW!!!  The crowd start dispersing back, but by then I noticed about 10-15 feet away a young petite girl and another kid had passed out from the crush of the crowd.  After a couple of minutes of  pleaing for the crowd to move back, a couple of paramedics made it to the kids, and they were pulled out of the crowd.  It is hard to explain how harrowing it is, to think you are crushed and strangulated from the sheer force of a few hundred people behind you trying to get to the stage.  I do not know what the final outcome of these kids, but it didn't make any news.  Likely because the venue was run by the city.

But the concert itself?  Stage show was fabuous, as this was the show supporting the "Lace and Whisky  Tour". But it seems he kept the "Welcome to My Nighmare" stage theme.  Great effects and props.  Did not like seeing the band without founding memebers, or like the fact that AC was drunk and slurring his lyrics.  The bruisng arond my upper torso came at no charge.

Alice Cooper definitely gives a good stage performance (at times unusual) and we saw him much later in life, but he was still awesome.

Vinyl/Tape additions- None

Foreigner- Very very good band that had excellent song writing skills, and got huge airplay in the 70's.  All of their first 5 albums charted in the Top 5 in the U.S.  And honestly, only the first 5 are worth listening to. It kind of seemed they hit a brick wall after Agent Provacteur, and the creative juices evaporated. Feels Like the First Time, Cold as Ice, Hot Blooded, Urgent, Juke Box Hero, and I want to Know What Love Is........  All in a huge streak a big hits, that kept Foreigner on the radio for pretty much 10 years.

September 1977 List

1. Boston (+1)
2. Led Zeppelin (-1)
3. Rush (No change)
4. Aerosmith (No change)
5. Moody Blues (No Change)
6. Fleetwood Mac (New)
7. Emerson Lake and Palmer (-1)
8. Eagles (No Change)

16. Kiss (-2)
17. Alice Cooper (+3)
18. Peter Frampton (New)
19. The Who (-3)
20. Black Sabbath (-3)

Vinyl/Tapes Added- None

Fleetwood Mac- . Fleetwood Mac was a slightly obsure to the main rock community, but had built up a nice following for those tending strongly in the English Bluesy bands of the '60's. Looking it up, the highest that the original Fleetwood Mac  would chart in the U.S was No.34.  Relatively tepid considering at this point the group had had 10 studio albums.

That all changed with a tidal wave for the next album and beyond, when the group added the couple of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. The Next 5 albums would all be in the Top 10.  Rumours was at the time the largest selling album of all time.  15X Platinum.

And of course I had a significant crush on Stevie Nicks.....   Others may have Farrah Fawcett Majors on their dorm wall.  Not Me.  I had a sweating Stevie poster with her singing. Super sexy woman, with maybe the sexyist voice of all time?  Before digressing more, I want to pick a number from MY favorite FM album...  Tusk.  This album does great justice showing how underrated and under appreciated Buckingham's guitar work was.  If you've never listened to Tusk, in its entirety, you are missing out.

Blue Oyster Cult-  Very technically astute heavy rockers who blend great musicanship with showmanship.  There's a lot more about this band than an SNL Cowbell skit.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R8A1_3ybiQ

Concert Attended:  Cheap Trick and Blue Oyster Cult- November 3, 1977 (cost on stub- $7.00)

Best to date.  Cheap Cheap was just coming out, and was really good.  Blue Oyster Cult?  All I can say is wow.  It had their infamous laser show where ther guitarist would shoot his laser from his wrist into a spinning disco ball, and the lasers would scatter and bounce all over the place.  Incredible.!!!!!  Band was so good too, as this show supported the Agents of Fortune Tour, so all the great ones like Don't Fear the Reaper, and ETI were covered.  They even gave the crowd a performance of Godzilla which had not been released yet.

Plus we all had a laugh.  Before BOC would take the stage, the disco ball started spinning with color lights reflecting.  And all the sudden a disco sound rang out.  The boo-ing in the crowd was so loud it shook the rafters. What a hoot.

1977 also marked the end of Lynyrd Skynyrd only three days after the release of their Street Survivors album.  Ronnie Van Zant, and Steve and Cassie Gaines lost their lives in a plane crash enroute to Baton Rouge.

Here is a rare live performance of That Smell from July 1977.





And for any other Skynyrd fans, here is the whole concert from Asbury Park, NJ.  Personally, I believe Lynyrd Skynyrd was musically one of the tightest bands of all time.

Guilty Pleasures Night-  Okay ..  admit it, there is a certain group, performer, or music that isn't classic rock that you like.  You know...  those which would have embarrassed you if your buddies knew, you'd catch all kind of hell from them.  MIne which i am not apologetic is classical music.  Pop wise, I will have to admit that Abba was my so called guilty pleasure.  While my Stevie Nicks poster was obviously cool, putting up one of Agnetha.  :cool:....  just wouldn't have been acceptable.
