What are you Listening To Right Now? - and more

[Delmarva]

I'm not a big Asia fan either. Still nice to play these albums occasionally. I can't remember the last time I listened to the GTR album.

All the GTR talk reminded of an un-listened to CD from my bootleg collection. Grabbed this back in my bit-torrenting days. Finally giving this a listen after having burned it about 12 yearsago.
It's demo's for the planned but never released 2nd GTR album. I knew instantly that it wasn't Max Bacon handling the vocals. Couldn't put a finger on it till reading their Wikipedia page. It's Robert Barry of Emerson and Palmer's 3, so that's a step up.
Steve Hackett wasn't with the band at this point.
From Wikipedia
"Unwilling to give up on the band, Steve Howe tried to continue GTR with Bacon, Spalding, ex-Saxon drummer Nigel Glockler (who had worked for Toyah with Spalding) and a second singer/guitarist, former Hush member Robert Berry. A bootleg of initial sessions (titled Nerotrend, which was also a new name suggested for the band) shows that half of the band's music was now sung by Berry and half by Bacon. Both sessions and band were ultimately abandoned, with some of the material later resurrected or reused on future albums by group members (including the song "This World is Big Enough for All of Us", which became "Birthright" on the ABWH album"

This includes a public service announcement from 1956 that still holds true today, even though the vinyl must have been tougher than thought of at the time based on the condition on this copy..that still plays nicely.

Listening to all that classical music this afternoon I made some pretty good progress on the Uncle Carlito project. Almost finished.
Would have been done long ago if I hadn't have stopped six weeks ago.

He's coming along. I have so much to fix once I finally get the color's laid down.

Sorry for sucking up all the bandwidth tonight but I'm having a good time ..
I posted this sometime last January or so and that's about how often I get it out.
I bought it at Slatewood Records in 1976 and have listened to it about once a year since
Sounds like it was recorded in a small bar based on the crowd noise and response..

Thanks Jason. Uncle Carlito has come a long way from the cheap piece of plaster I bought at Michaels a couple months ago.

If that's the case I can't wait to see the finished product. It's looks great already.

Don't fret the bandwidth. A few of us regulars are paying for it and I'm not using much tonight. We got you.

A challenging one to listen to all the way through. it does have it's moments though. Toe The Line was always a favorite. It's got Steve Howe written all over it.

Some good stuff, Could flow better. Great playing makes up for it.
