Title: "When albums ruled the world" - iPlayer
Post by: James Nighthawk on February 10, 2013, 11:32:22 AM
What's more to say?! Go watch!

I played the game of working out which band/genre would come next - Punk straight after Prog was easy money, but I gave myself a pat on the back for guessing Carole King for the singersongwriter turnaround in the US.

And some tidbits I never knew!

I always thought AOR had always meant "Adult orientated rock". not "Album..."

The cut around groove on Sgt Peppers that infinitely-looped the reversed vocal ending. I knew the ending but not that loop part, very cool...

...and relevant to our forum's current comp ( >cough> PR >cough )

 ;D ;D

A very interesting and inspiring watch - thanks for the heads up JN

I also made a new discovery - one of the contributors had an amazing voice - I will definitely be looking up some stuff by Nerina Pallot!

I had the first album. Big voice but songs never grabbed me. Perhaps she has grown?
