A-Z vinyl collection

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Dire Straits, The Doors, Doobie Brothers and Def Leppard. Not a bad inbetween.

If only I had them on vinyl...got a couple of Dire Straits but none of the rest.

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Er, Dire Straits, Doobie Brothers here as well; and you were worried about my taste in music?

The Dave Clark 5 & Del Amitri here as well.

No DC5 or DA on vinyl either ... ?

 

[richart]

Just for DaveR first Dire Straits album

 

[backwoodsman]

Dave Edmunds anyone? (Or does that have to be under "E") His Sabre Dance, and Arlesienne are well worth turning the up volume up and getting the walls vibrating ?

Since I’m not an old man like most of you, I’ve not got the vinyl collection. But I’ll join you in playing some D’s from my collection, to start with:
Donavon’s Season of the Witch
Divine comedy’s National Express

 

[Hobbit]

Dire Straits..... we’re all brothers in arms at present.

 

[Imurg]

Divine comedy’s National Express

Now there's a song......great lyrics.

From what I’ve read on this thread so far, I assume a few of you have been listening to Destiny’s Child most of the morning?

 

[Bigfoot]

The Doors - so many songs - Break on Through, Spanish Caravan, Five to One, Alabama Song, Whiskey Bar, Cars Hiss by my Window and many many more ! - all such good memories of my first long sets of 26 nights in a row

Unfortunately only on CD

Pre-empted you and listened to it first thing

Definitely an E ! Loved going to Dave Edmunds concerts.

Been reading the sleeve notes as I go through them. Dave Clark was one shrewd cookie; Britain's first independent artist/producer, owning all his recordings & leasing them to major record companies for specific periods. Also produced one of the first music videos; bought the exclusive rights to "Ready Steady Go!"

And Michael McDonald co-wrote You Belong to Me with Carly Simon... by letter!

And Communique still sounds good 41 years on

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Damn - there was me thinking I was almost there and up pops Duran Duran with Rio. (well...maybe...). Not quite back to drawing board - but back to the turntable to give it a spin...

 

[jim8flog]

The only D's left in my collection are Dire Straits Brothers in Arms and Dvorak New World Symphony

So sticking with 'pop'rather than classical it has the be the former but I listen to latter a lot more.

Never was a great Doors fan except for just one track.

 

[jim8flog]

Obviously no (now older) new wave romantics on here as nobody has mentioned Duran Duran.

 

[MegaSteve]

As usual I am late to the party... Have been doing a bit of catch up with Bread, Chicago and Deep Purple... Still got a large amount of vinyl but, presently, nothing to play it on... Alexa has become a bit of a friend when it comes to listening to music...

 

[backwoodsman]

Quite right too...

 

[richart]

Deep Purple, Machine Head. Let’s rock.

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Not that difficult in the end, as much through having a rather limited selection of Ds to choose from.

Close run thing for 2nd place - with Ian Dury and the Blockheads with New Boots and Panties!! (1977) edging out Deacon Blue with when the world knows your name (1989) by a nose

But by a length my #1 D is Deep Purple with In Rock (1970)

Oh Sweet Child in Time and Flight of the Rat you are just so rock...
