I love Uli! I dare say without him the Scorpions might not have survived the early years. I bought the 1st three LP's he put out with his solo band Electric Sun after he left Scorpions. Earthquake and Firewind were GREAT but Beyond the Astral Skies was a bit too far out there for me. Very down to ea...

Very, very sorry to know Ken has passed. Long Live the NARB!

Been trying to improve my riff/rhythm playing lately. Here is a song I recorded this Friday. No frills - just nice music and tones. Hope you enjoy this classic. https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=v8CYclgy2aY Thanks for sharing! I dig it! Regatta de Blanc was the 2nd and last really good albu...

I guess you are right but plant's moaning on this one just kills me. I am not really a big fan of dancing so i guess i missed the point on this one. This is my kind of Zeppelin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9K-Zv_pTfk Purchased this LP in Germany at the PX in 1976 when it came out and my favori...

A 59 LP is only worth it's weight in gold if you are (/were) D. Allman, G. Harrison, Eric Clapton or the Rev. B. Gibbons. Me, personally? I prefer the 1960 LP R0.

I love the Heep. I bought the German / European versions / covers of Very 'eavy, Very 'umble, Salisbury, Look at Yourself, The Magician's Birthday and Demons and Wizards around 1974/75 when we lived in Germany. They were BIG back then. Full-time residents on my iPod.

Here's an interesting read about the current state of the guitar industry, as a whole (not too long or complex for the average "rock 'n roller").
Why my guitar gently weeps The slow, secret death of the six-string electric. And why you should care.

Small shop (Tante Emma Laden)? Maybe make a counter offer for a little less. They'll become collectors items for sure (no one's buying them) ;-)

Very nice! Sounds as though someone has made a full recovery!

I think you should rename yourself "Niccolo" and be done with it!

Just stumbled across your post. Cripes, man! Another member out sick. Hope you're recovery is near complete? Best wishes - and NO H E A V Y lifting!

Hello Al, Until yesterday evening, I had been absent from the forum for a few months but was unpleasantly surprised and very sorry to have read of your cardiac surgery. As an RN and with a background in critical care (surgical ICU), I can fully appreciate the underlying pathophysiology associated wi...

The mighty Sennheiser e609 on a Leslie 122: Leslie 122RV 17.jpg Leslie 122RV 15.jpg Leslie 122RV 19.jpg Man thats got Uriah Heep written all over it. Man! I was thinking of putting on some Uriah Heep this weekend. Love the early(ier) material between 1970 and 1975, Very 'eavy, Very "umble, Salisbur...

Great to see Blackmore coming out (again). Been a Purple fan since the early 70's and have original 1st run pressings of Rainbow's first two LP's. I'm going to be interested in this...

I hear "Peter and the Wolf" lurking under it in places.

5 days? 5 days?! You got gipped, bro. Just kidding. Good deal.
