You, my reader, are going to pick an album for me to review each month. It is really simple…first, I will give you 5 albums to choose from and second, you will tell me which one of those you would like to see reviewed on the site. See…simple!
There are a few simple rules I have put in to place in my selections. They are…
- One has to be a new release (within the last month)
- One has to be one I have never heard before (new releases don’t count for this one)
- One has to be from a genre I don’t normally listen to at all or very often
- And the last two are choices from my collection that I haven’t reviewed before
What are the 5 albums you ask? Funny you should ask because I have those right here…
New Release – Duran Duran – “Future Past”
Never Heard Before – Big Star – “#1 Record”
Not My Normal Genre – Television – “Marquee Moon”
From My Collection – Stevie Ray Vaughan – “Soul to Soul”
From My Collection – Dokken – “Tooth And Nail”
Let me know which one you would like to see and sometime in November, I will post a review of the album that gets the most votes. You have one week to decide and from there I will start listening to the album and do a review.
Thanks for participating!!

I’ve heard all but the new Duran Duran.
Marquee Moon really stands out because of that dual guitar solo, which blew my mind 30 years ago, so I’d recommend that one.

I almost chose Tooth And Nail on sight, but I’ll go with Duran Duran instead. I don’t know what it’s like and I’m curious to see what it’s about.

Big Star is one of the best power pop albums ever…it’s where Cheap Trick, Kiss, and other bands got a lot of influence.
