In light of the FOTUS’s stupid fucking war that motherfucker started and now, revelations about what’s happening with the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) and whatever other ship in the battle group which has been deployed for as long without a port call because Kegsbreath hasn’t a fucking clue how to take care of troops, this one seems more than appropriate. Besides, the Four Roses Small Batch is really tasty. 😉

Blind Faith
#blindfaith #60srock #60smusic #classicrock #ericclapton #gingerbaker #ricgrech #stevewinwood #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky The first and only album from the first-ever supergroup is released on August 9, 1969. Buzzworthy not only because of Clapton, Winwood, Grech and Baker but also because of the album cover. Bob Seidemann, who has photographed the Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin, is hired to take the cover shot.

I was 10 when I first heard this and always liked it almost as much as “Satisfaction” which was on the same album I bought at Woolworth’s with my allowance. Of course, back then (1975) I paid something like three bucks. And I still have the album.

It's also the fitting capper to Dylan's mid-60's electric trilogy, following Bringing It All Back Home and Highway 61 Revisited. Originally recorded in New York with The Hawks and numerous backing musicians, only one song stood out.

It's a double album -- one disc live, one disc studio. It's the first platinum selling double album ... ever.

Odessa
People hear "BeeGees" and they automatically think "disco" and/or Saturday Night Fever. But that's selling the group short. Their earlier works were nothing short of genius and that includes Odessa, released on March 30, 1969. It's a complex, ambitious project that blends progressive rock, pop ballads, and country-flavored tunes. #beegees #odessa #60srock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #progrock #progressiverock #baroque #pop

@libramoon, looking at that playlist there was one tune that really stuck out I haven’t heard in awhile but I would also play at my first radio station gig years ago.

#60sRockWindows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction, gone
When will this haunting stop?
Your face
It just won't leave me alone
Pictures Of Matchstick Men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you -
Spirit
Spirit releases their debut album on January 22, 1968. The album was a mainstay of progressive rock radio in the late-60's/early 70's. And, the track "Taurus" has been one of major controversy over the years.

The Who Sell Out
The Who release their third album on December 15, 1967. It's a concept album many believe is their homage to pirate radio -- fancied by the mods of London in the 60's. It's #113 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
