I lost interest after the first album. Shifted my attention to the really exceptional stuff being produced that decade by Genesis, Pink Floyd, Van Der Graaf Generator, Gong, David Bowie, Caravan, Neil Young, King Crimson, Dead, etc. Competition was stiff.

I had the prog-rock stuff. I had every Gensis with Peter Gabriel and beyond until about '85. I had Peter Gabriel solo albums up to 2005, even his two albums sung in Deutsch I had the imports. I had every Kate Bush album and every picture sleeve 45 of hers and her Live at Hammersmith VHS video. David Bowie I had every album, Neil Young all of them, King Crimson all of them plus Adrian Belew instructional guitar VHS. I bought Dark Side of the Moon the month it was released. I would add music to my listening enjoyment, I tried never to shut things out. When I sold off all my albums in 2011, I had 4,000 albums. I still have about 500 CD's, but I don't play them. I only get the videos, I still have over 300 concert DVD's but I don't play them, everything you can think is available on youtube for free and on my smart 75" TV with surround sound.

Cheat the Hangman supports my theory that the best music is the stuff that's not a hit. I can't think of one band that's not true for. One of my favorite quotes in all of rockdom is from our man Peter Gabriel (paraphrasing): "I purposely put one crappy song on all my albums because I know that will be the hit."

Here's another hidden gem, Loneliness by Grand Funk from the album E Pluribus Funk.

I'll actually admit to liking Grand Funk (all my friends used to make fun of me). The Survival album itself is one hidden gem! Ya, I agree Loneliness is a great song. And they even have a hit that I like a lot, besides Closer to Home - from their ultra commercial period - Bad Time - the song with Leslie Gore influence all over it, of all people.

It's fun to debate, Tom Johnston vs. Micheal McDonald.
Yet, how about McDonald's piano playing? Sweet Maxine
