Bad Company's first album


Bad Company's first album is called, imaginatively, Bad Company. Perfect album. Can the band repeat?

8 songs 35 minutes

Paul Rodgers is the lead singer with an exceptional voice.

Can't Get Enough About early love where you crave each other

Rock Steady Stay in the relationship - it's working

Ready for Love  This guy's been kicked to the ground and is getting up to face the future.

'Walkin' down this rocky road

Wonderin' where my life is leading'

Don't Let Me Down Sad song about somebody who got dumped by his girl. The saxophone solo in the middle blends into the electric guitar solo.

Bad Company 'These towns they all know our names. Six Gun sound is our claim to fame. This song is about banditos who redeem themselves by defending towns. Like the films The Magnificent Seven and the Seven Samurai.

The Way I Choose Living independently and honestly.

Movin' On Great song about a touring rock star. Super high - 'never touching the ground'.

Seagull The sweetest song. Do seagulls fly with regrets? A man with regrets, wants to know.

 'Here is a man asking the question

Is this really the end of the world
Seagull you must have known for a long time
The shape of things to come
Now you fly through the sky
Never asking why, and you fly
All around till somebody shoots you down'

Peter, Paul and Mary: their first album

  1962  12 songs About 35 minutes The album title is, imaginatively, Peter, Paul and Mary. The band is the epitome of Folk. They've mixed traditional songs with lots of harmony and deep messages of the Meaning of Life and Peace Early in the Morning 500 Miles Biggest hit of the album Sorrow This Train 'Don't carry no gamblers' 'She's bound for glory.' Bamboo - sweet song It's Raining That song you sung on the playground in 1st grade. If I Had My Way Recap of Samson & Delilah Cruel War   Lemon Tree Cynical about love.  When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me "Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree" "Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me "I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree" If I Had a Hammer Pete Seeger classic from 1949. The hammer represents POWER. The bell represents time. The song is about peace. Autumn to May Where Have All the Flow

Boston: the first album

Image
  Boston's first album is called, imaginatively, Boston. The album cover! Spaceship guitars fleeing an exploding planet.  8 songs, 38 minutes. Almost a masterpiece. More Than A Feeling - this is a masterpiece opener. About an old girlfriend that walked away. Peace of Mind - another masterpiece. It's anti Rat Race.   " Now you're climbin' to the top of the company ladder Hope it doesn't take too long Can'tcha you see there'll come a day when it won't matter? Come a day when you'll be gone, whoa" Foreplay/Long Time  Seriously long instrument opening. About leaving a relationship that sadly has expired. Almost 8 minutes. " Well, I'm takin' my time, I'm just movin' on You'll forget about me after I've been gone And I take what I find, I don't want no more It's just outside of your front door" Rock & Roll Band - this is what makes the album not a masterpiece. Sorry. Smokin ' skip this Hitch A
