The Who - Concerts For The People Of Kampuchea 1979


*THANKS TO THE ORIGINAL POSTER

Friends as is our tradition here we have compiled what we believe are the top ten albums of 2019. So sit back and read our selections while you enjoy this fine Who show. See scans

10. The Air Farts-No Smell, No Foul
These guys have consistently been releasing LP's. This their sixth, has shown how much they have grown, as this is a 13 inch LP. This one features, guitar, bass, drums and vocals. Highly Recommended

9. Phillip Glass-Blips
This collection features a series of blips lasting no more than 2 seconds apiece. The 16 blips on here are revolutionary, for their uniqueness in sounding the same. Listen to this on headphones (if you can get them on in time) Best Cuts, Blip 3 and Blip 12

8. Metallica and Leo Sayer-ULUL
After the success of their collaboration with Lou Reed, Lars decided if lighting could strike twice let's try it with someone who is looked up to as an Icon of pop music. Well readers it succeeded. Lars is known for doing his drum warm-ups to the song "Long Tall Glasses" the only flop on here is "When I Need You" Lars and Leo's duet just doesn't cut it for us, even if it's the song Lars proposed marriage to his wife on.*Interesting side note Sting and Mr. Sayer recorded "More Than I Can Say" together for the "Ghost In The Machine" album when Sting erased Leo's vocals and words and re-titled it "Every Breath You Take"

7. Kid Rock-Am I Still Relevant...Am I.....Am I?
Let me tell you most people (ok no more than 5) think this guy rates right up there after The Beatles, The Stones, The Who and The Kinks. There was not a dry eye in the house when we heard for the first time "Oprah I Love You Forgive Me" Seek this one out.

6. Elvis Presley-Elvis Sings For Children And Grownups Too
We know this is a reissue but any album that features "Old MacDonald" "How Would You Like To Be" and "Cotton Candy Land" from the king has to be on this list.

5. The Grateful Dead-The Dark Star Chronicles (Live)
The first album that features the complete sixteen days, fourteen hours, six minutes and 23 seconds version of the classic Grateful Dead song "Dark Star" over 400 LP's shipped to your door (seeing as how it was mail order only) made for quite a few smiles on Dead fans faces. We were astonished to find out the list price for this was only thirty-four dollars but many complained that the shipping and handling fee of six hundred and ninety five dollars was a bit much. Stand out track, the eight day drum solo from Mickey Hart. How was he able to eat, go to the bathroom? Amazing....

4. Piss-Dribble On The Seat
These guys from Oregon know "HOW TO ROCK" and wipe up after themselves too.

3. The Fuck-Hebrew Tales From Jamaica
This interesting tidbit of reggae set to a Jewish bar mitzvah left us cold. Sly and Robbie make a guest appearance on the song "_><}%!("

2. Slayer-Plays The Hits Of Jim Reeves
Man, you have not lived until you heard their version of "Hello Walls" another outstanding track "Bimbo"

1. Kayne Dogg-The Rap Album
The first acapella rap album that features no instruments or for that matter no voices. A blank album that is sure to light up even the most non-rap fan you know.

BREATHE THE AIR WE HAVE BLOWN YOU 

MEET THE NEW BOSS SAME AS THE OLD BOSS

  1. Each album is destined to be remembered long after “Slayer sings potty training gospel etudes” is forgotten

  4. My favorite is Grateful Dead.
    True story: one of the most successful direct mail campaigns ever was for a fishing lure. It was advertised in the back of a magazine for a few bucks, but hardly any 'bites'.
    So the supplier changed his ad: Lure FREE with $3.95 shipping and handling. Sold like crazy.
    Go figure.
    Regards, Dave.
