RE: (TV) shame, shame,shame (the albums you felt bad about loving )

["Casey, Leo J" <CaseyL@VOLPE.DOT.GOV>]

OK, I know I'm going to get 'read out of the Movement' 
for this one, but the very 1st Peter Frampton solo 
album, "Wind of Change", was one of my guilty
pleasures.

I threw in the towel on the quality of his guitar playing
when the sickly sweet "Frampton Comes Alive" sold
a gazillion copies.  However, the title song "Wind of 
Change" has some beautiful guitar work----and here is
 where I might have to start ducking for cover----
it reminds me a bit of Verlaine's more romantic playing
on such songs as "Without A Word". 

I also used to play the first two Humble Pie (British)
albums that were re-released/repackaged as a double
album entitled "Lost & Found". 

More true confessions:   Cub Koda's "Brownsville Station", 
also,  the soundtrack to the movie "Zanadu" for its song 
"Magic" by Olivia Newton-John.  I know ---YEEEECK! , 
but its languid guitar and bass somehow sounds like or
reminds me of a couple of late 70s early 80s 45rpm B-sides
of Roxy Music (whose names I can't recall "I think one is
called "Lover").  

Apologies ahead of time to jazz fans on list (some who will think
"What's wrong with liking that?  It's great!" ): 
I have a soft spot in my heart for the live version of Pat Metheny's
"Are You Going With Me?" despite, in general, not carrying for his
guitar tone or music.  His tone reminds me of Verlaine's comment
that in his youth the tone of electric jazz guitars on record sounded
 "...icky"... .   
Also used to play a song----with a very long (6 min?) guitar solo by
Larry Correll's on his early 1970s live album----over and over and 
thought he was god.  

Still own all these records,  but keep most of them in a 
semi-obscured section of my record/cd shelves.

oh man...i love "i need a slave"...i think the thing
that makes that lp most of all is the humor mixed with
class anger & the urban decay...
"i don't need no inteelectual shit tonite!"
