Deep Purple 'Made in Japan' on purple vinyl. One of several copies of my GOAT live album π€πΈπΉ π₯ truly amazing live performance of the band at their peak. #nowplaying #DeepPurple #vinylcommunity #DailyVinyl #vinylcollector #colouredvinyl #nowspinning #hardrock #vinyllover
Happy 81st π to Robin Trower ππΈ And heres his finest album 'Bridge of Sighs' from 1974. One of the GOAT albums #nowplaying #RobinTrower #bluesguitar #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinylcollector #VinylBlueSky
The Day of the Eagle into Bridge of Sighs is perfection, especially live versions ππΈ
Yes, I had that but it was disappointing as it was edited down and too long on each side. The 31' Space Truckin is incendiary π the double remaster is excellent but you still have a long side 4... The band are on fire here, esp Paice π₯ and Blackmore πΈ
A fantastic cover of the #ElvisCostello song. I have this picture sleeve 7" single.
The lap steel solo in 'High Hopes' from the Division Bell gets me every time.. when he hits that high upward note I have to turn it up πΈ
Still one of the most out there albums of musicianship π I first heard it in late 72 when the owner of a record shop in Bideford let me borrow the cassette to listen to.. it was above my head on first listen but I persevered to discover a new world of music πΆπΈπΉπ₯
The fantastic Deep Purple 'Live in London' 1974 double vinyl remaster from 2008. An incredible dynamic show with the MK3 lineup. I still have the cassette tape from the BBC in concert radio show back in 74. #nowplaying #DeepPurple #vinylcollector #DailyVinyl #nowspnning #VinylLover #vinylcommunity
The new Robin Trower live in the USA album 'One Moment in Time' recorded on his 80th birthday tour. He still has the magic touch and tone πΈ #RobinTrower

Hawkwind's classic 'X In Search of Space' the second album I ever bought back in 1972. My copy with the #RobertCalvert log book. The start of a lifelong venture with the band. I'm going to see them twice this year. It's over 40 times now #Hawkwind #nowplaying #SpaceRock #vinylcollector #DailyVinyl
Yes, they reached new heights there and then followed it with the epic Whirlwind ππΈπΉπ₯
Classic Banshees π
Best album Fragile, but best side is Echoes on Meddle π
Yes, the vaults are empty with so many artists. Mono mixes and single edits are pretty pointless except for completing, but even that is hard to justify.
I'm also no fan of instrumental versions of albums as a bonus disc. Never play them
It is a nice box set. Especially if you don't have any of it. But how many copies of Rainbow Rising do I need, as great as it is. Record companies keep rehashing releases of bands I love in multi sets with extra tracks and live shows. But it's expensive to keep up with it.
They are an amazing prog supergroup. I was into all 4 groups prior to their formation. Agree on those two albums but love SMPTe. I remember the excitement when it came out and blew me away. I saw them 6 times, firstly in Nov 2001 and each tour after that until the final tour in July 2022
What an epic album 'The Whirlwind' is by Transatlantic π I saw them perform this twice including the Shepherds Bush Empire show that came out on DVD and Victoria Park with guest #SteveHackett #NealMorse #RoineStolt #PeteTrewavas #MikePortnoy #TransatlanticBand #nowplaying #nowspinning #ProgRock
Ah..yes a very good buy π. I thought you meant the newly released box set 'Temple of the King' of the first two albums as You've posted them both and then the three live German sets from 76
I love that first album. Especially 'Catch the Rainbow'. You say budget box, but Β£65 is not that that cheap. I've read reviews saying the live shows were only released in Japan. But they were released here in Europe as I have the three double CD sets. Great shows. I saw them on that tour too.
Sunday morning music with Beethoven's magnificent Violin concerto played by the great #ItzhakPerlman π» #PhilharmoniaOrchestra conducted by #CarloMariaGiulini #classicalmusic #nowplaying #vinyllover #vinylcommunity #LudwigVanBeethoven #VinylBlueSky
Their best album for me. I've just bought the excellent' Earthrise Live at the Marquee 1974' where they play the whole album.
The magnificent 'Disintegration' by The Cure from 1989. An album full of so many #RobertSmith classics. This is the double remaster done by Robert Smith #TheCure #nowplaying #vinylcommunity #DailyVinyl #nowspinning #vinylcollector
Absolutely agree on that. Akkermans playing on the concerto is a masterclass of control πΈπ
'In-A-Gada-Da-Vida' by Iron Butterfly from 1968. With it's epic and dynamic side long title track πΉ πΈ π₯ my copy bought for 50p back in 1972, was one of the first ten albums I purchased. #nowplaying #IronButterfly #DailyVinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylcollector #nowspinning #VinylBlueSky #vinyllover
It'll be great for sure even after all these years. Biggest underground band ever π
Glasgow will be excellent.. 16times is impressive π this will be 7 for me, but I did see 78 once on Farewell to Kings tour and 79 twice. It was hard after those as always travelling for them and not in Bristol
Oh, another live Flower Kings album. One for the collection as I have everything else of theirs. I've been a fan since Roine's superb 'Flower King' album. So much wonderful music ππΆ
Mine was a numeric text mistake, should be 2004, not 14. Sadly, I never saw them in 2013 on the UK Clockwork Angels tour. Just thought I see them next time, then sadly Neil passed away π
Good grief, 24 times..right place right time. Never seen him and foubt hes played UK much
A classic ππΈ
