Default resurrect an album today.

Sometimes it's fun to take some of your fav. albums (or god forbid, that Air Supply album from Childhood) and listen to it again - I have recently purchased a copy of a Carpenters album my mom used to have.

I know it's hokey and dumb, but I enjoy hearing songs I used to hear so much as a kid, even though I wouldn't be caught dead hearing them now...

Take today and find an album in your collection you used to like and listen to it - try to figure out why you stopped listening to it...

I went with one I hadn't heard in years - Gillian Welch - Time (the Revelator) - very very good album

I should be pulling out Neil Young's "Weld" - Gillian was only a couple years back, but I'll put on the Carpenters when I et home from work.

Nice pair. Tapestry was huge.

Another thread got me listening to the Stones "December's Children" and "Between The Buttons" yesterday.

I played the hell out of my Partridge Family album as a kid, but I think if I heard "Point Me in the Direction of Albuquerque' now, I'd throw up in my mouth a little bit.

Funny, last night I found a bag of 20 or so old cassette tapes. I wanted to play some, but I realized that I don't have a cassette player anymore!!!!

Some that peaked my interest:
Triumph - Allied Forces
Def Leppard - High & Dry *** Forgot how awesome this was ***
Men at Work - Business as Usual
Police - Ghost in the Machine
Scorpions - Love At First Sting
Ratt - Out Of The Cellar

This is a good idea. I just went through my older CDs and pulled out Candlebox and Pearl Jam (vs.) for the ride to my Dad's.
