One Hundred Seventy

Artist - Genesis
Album - Genesis
Released - 1983
Label - Charisma/Atlantic
Genre - Pop Rock

Tracks:
Side One
Mama
That's All
Home By The Sea
Second Home By The Sea
Side Two
Illegal Alien
Taking It All Too Hard
Just A Job To Do
Silver Rainbow
It's Gonna Get Better

The 12th studio album by Genesis and after knowing this, I must immediately look up their discography.  I'm a fan of Genesis, especially since I grew up watching the early (awesome stages) of MTV and seeing their videos on TV, but this is their 12th album.  A must play by my roommate Robbie, this album starts with Mama and I immediately think of a man with mother issues.  You have to bring a little humor to these posts once in a while, just to keep the readers on their toes.  In all seriousness, Genesis has been around since 1967 and have had quite a good track record with each album they put out, even when Phil Collins broke out into his solo career. 

**For the simple fear that my computer will shut off when it wants to, I am ending the post right here. **

Enjoy!

Satisfying a Need, a Craving

My one hundred thirty-fourth pick:

Artist - Led Zeppelin
Album - II
Released - 1969
Label - Atlantic
Genre - Rock

Tracks:
Side One
Whole Lotta Love
What Is and What Should Never Be?
The Lemon Song
Thank You
Side Two
Heartbreaker
Living Loving Maid (She's Just A Woman)
Ramble On
Moby Dick
Bring It On Home

One of the BEST records in rock, HANDS DOWN.  Led Zeppelin's II is the bands second album and each song on this album is to die for.  This is the record that you want to listen to loud and on vinyl and I'm so glad I have it within my reach.  Lately, I've been on a Led Zeppelin high.  They are just such a great band and believe it or not, I can listen to each one of their records back to back to back.  Regardless of what I write about this band and this album, it will not do justice with how amazing their music is and their sound.  Something worth purchasing, picking up and playing on repeat.

Enjoy!
