Drop me an e-mail if any of these tickle your fancy. I'll divvy up albums that more than one person has an interest in.
01. Petula Clark - Portrait of Petula Clark
Easy-listening stuff, but a nice selection.
02. Silver Creek - Silver Creek
A one-LP group that shooda done better. Kewl Orange Blossom Special rendition.
03. Allan Sherman - My Son, The Celebrity
Yeah, he's the "Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda" guy. But that's not on this LP.
04. Chilliwack - Opus X
Album #10 from a Canadian prog band. "Whatcha Gonna Do" got some air play.
05. Jimmy Dean - The First Thing Ev'ry Morning
Might have his signature on the back. An otherwise terrible album.
06. Rare Earth - In Concert
2x-LP Kewl album design - in the form of a backpack. Good music too.
07. Marshall Tucker Band - Carolina Dreams
Has "Heard It In a Love Song" on it.
08. Andreas Vollenweider - White Winds
Ambient music from an electric harpist. How kewl is that?!
09. Bill Monroe - The Original Blue Grass Sound
The father of bluegrass.
10. Ronnie Milsap - One More Try For Love
Nice, but nothing special.
11. Lone Justice - Lone Justice
Maria McKee's first group. This was their debut LP, I think.
12. Kenny Rogers & The 1st Edition - Something's Burning
Pop music sweet enough to make you gag.
13. Leon Russell & Marc Benno - Asylum Choir II
Leon's done better; Leon's done worse.
14. Walter Murphy - A Fifth of Beethoven
Half disco; half rockicized classical music. The disco half sux.
15. Sheena Easton - You Could Have Been With Me
Nice.
16. Tom Paxton - The Compleat Tom Paxton
2X-LP. Live. All his hits.
17. The Limeliters - Tonight : In Person
Kingston Trio wannabees. Which is not a bad thing.
18. Black Oak Arkansas - I'd Rather Be Sailing
In immaculate condition, but the worst rock-&-roll album ever. Ask me why.
19. Chilliwack - Chilliwack
2X-LP. Some of their early proggy stuff.
20. Roger Miller - Dang Me
His debut album. Good stuff.
21. Allan Sherman - For Swingin' Livers Only
Jewish-humor songs.
22. Chet Atkins - This Is Chet Atkins
2X-LP. A fine guitarist.
23. Pure Prairie League - Live Takin' The Stage
2X-LP. A nice live album. With all their hits. Both of them.
24. Don Nix - Skyrider
Not his best. But I am a huge Don Nix fan.
25. Mike Oldfield - Airborn
2X-LP. An early re-issue of some of his songs. Includes Tubular Bells.
26. The Earl Scruggs Review - Strike Anywhere
A bluegrass band that sings songs about Muhammed Ali. Kewlness.
27. Three Dog Night - It Ain't Easy
My favorite 3DN album.
28. Tommy - The Soundtrack
2X-LP. Elton doing Pinball Wizard. Clapton on it as well.
Warning : This one is excessively scratched. I'll probably toss it.
29. Smothers Brothers - Tour De Farce
Excellent!
30. Smothers Brothers - Golden Hits, Volume 2
See above.
31. Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - The Best Years of our Lives
A British glam band that I'm partial to.
32. Bee Gees - Horizontal
Their first US album, I think. Has "Massachusetts" on it.
33. Four Tops - Anthology
3X-LP. Good stuff, but way too much Motown for one sitting.
34. John Denver - Back Home Again
I'm learning to like JD.
35. Beck-Bogart-Appice - Beck, Bogart, and Appice
Three guys that you really should wiki.
36. Blue Oyster Cult - Blue Oyster Cult
Decent, but doesn't contain "Don't Fear The Reaper".
37. Dan Fogelberg - Nether Lands
Nice story-telling songs.
38. Stealer's Wheel - Stealer's Wheel.
I'm still not learning to like Gerry Rafferty.
39. Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction
Is there a reason why Barry deliberately sings off-key?
40. Lindsey Buckingham - Go Insane
A nice effort.
41. Leon Redbone - From Branch to Branch
A white guy singing Muddy Waters era blues. Kewl.
42. Procol Harum - Exotic Birds & Fruit
No hits, but nice.
43. Rare Earth - Band Together
Lounge Music stuff from their later years.
44. Isaac Stern - 60th Anniversary Celebration
Classical violin. Excellent.
45. Berlin Philharmonic - Dvorak Symphony #8
Hey, I love light classical music. Back off.
46. Chris Rea - Deltics
A fantastic guitarist that no one knows.
47. Josh White - Archive of Folk Music
40's folk/blues music, issued soon after his death.
48. Ned Kelly Soundtrack
Mick Jagger, Waylon Jennings, and Shel Silverstein team up.
49. The Highwaymen - The Highwaymen
No, not Willie and Waylon. This is the 60's group who did "Michael Row the Boat Ashore"
50. Bonnie Tyler - Secret Dreams and Forbidden Fire
Bonnie roolz!
51. Bonnie Tyler - The World Starts Tonight
See above.
52. Chet Atkins & Hank Snow - Reminiscing

More Kingston Trio type stuff.
56. Jean-Luc Ponty - Cosmic Messenger
Excellence in ambience.
57. John Mayall - The Turning Point

Better-than-average.
60. Harmonium - L'Heptade
Obscure French-Canadian prog-ambient band.
61. New Christy Minstrels - Tell Tall Tales
Happy folksy 60's stuff. I like them.
