A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Thursday, June 09, 2011. One Track Mind: Chicago Transit Authority - Introduction (1969). While I'm part of what is considered the "second wave" of Chicago fans in that I became a fan of theirs in the eighties when they were riding high on hits like. Hard to Say I'm Sorry, You're the Inspiration, Hard Habit to Break, Will You Still Love Me. And to a lesser extent. I popped in that first casette and was blown away by the opening track,.

http://perplexio76.blogspot.com/2005/11/supertramp-crisis-what-crisis-1975.html
A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Sunday, November 20, 2005. Most of Supertramp's big hits ended up on 1974's Crime of the Century. Or 1979's Breakfast in America. Doesn't contain any of those fun hummable and singable tunes that made those other albums such huge sellers. That being said, this album has something both those albums, lack- CONSISTENCY. While it lacks the big hits, it also lacks the clunkers that often fall victim to the "skip" button. And The Logical Song. If you'...

A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Wednesday, August 23, 2006. Supertramp - Breakfast in America (1979). Despite initially getting off to a rocky start with two albums that were essentially ignored by the public in the early seventies (their debut and it's immediate follow-up, Indelibly Stamped. Supertramp more than made up for it with 1974's Crime of the Century. And with that album the band also seemed to find it's footing- putting out a series of exceptional albums; Crisis?

A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Saturday, August 13, 2011. One Track Mind: Toto - Falling In Between (2006). Toto has long been one of my favorite bands. Their willingness to take risks and try a variety of different styles of music has always impressed me as has their brilliant talent. After all Toto is a band of session cats. These are the guys the other bands call on to perform on their albums. Heck these guys started out backing up Boz Scaggs on his Silk Degrees. Subscribe...

The Review Revue: One Track Mind (Squared): Marillion - Kayleigh & Lavender (1985)
http://perplexio76.blogspot.com/2011/06/one-track-mind-squared-marillion.html
A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Friday, June 24, 2011. One Track Mind (Squared): Marillion - Kayleigh and Lavender (1985). Much like with tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, peanut butter and jelly, and Queen's We Will Rock You. We Are the Champions. Listening to Marillion's Misplaced Childhood. Album it's easy to see that this was by design as Mark Kelly's beautiful keyboard solo acts as a segue from Kayleigh. Do you remember chalk hearts melting on a playground wall?

A repository for CD, movie, and occassionally book reviews. Friday, August 26, 2011. One Second After by William R. Forstchen. Heavily inspired by Pat Frank's post-apocalyptic classic, Alas, Babylon,. Forstchen fast forwards to the early 21st century and instead of Alas, Babylon. S post nuclear world, Forstchen's cautionary tale is one of an America crippled by an EMP (ElectroMagnetic Pulse) attack. And it gets worse- 19th century technology can't support a 21st century population! If you're on prescript...
