Thanks for watching and commenting

Oh wow. How cool is that. I didn’t know that. Great information. Thanks.

Thanks - I'm looking forward to checking out Tangerine Dream. Music to chill me out. Hopefully I'll really like it.

​​​​​​​​​​​​@@TheAlanRosenbergShowAlan, if you are looking for music to "chill" "out" to, and I mean REALLY chill, here are a couple of suggestions: 1) BRIAN ENO - "Ambient 1 - Music for Airports" and 2) STEVEN HALPERN - "Spectrum Suite" 45th Anniversary Edition. Totally chill. 👍for FAIRPOINT CONVENTION. I love the "Old Folkies" (as AL STEWART would say). THANKS for your new haul update. Very enjoyable as usual. ✨💫✨ P.S. I would just like to take this opportunity to plug 3 albums by the very non prolific group ZERO 7: "The Garden", "Yeah Ghost" and their compilation "Record". THANKS AGAIN! ---- Oh, and one more thing. A lot of people put his music under the "New Age" banner but I think "Prog/Ambient/New Age/Contemporary Jazz" form a wide intersection and the music of YANNI is in it. Windham Hill put out a nice collection of his more "Prog" selections a few years back. The sweeping "Street Level", the synth-heavy "Looking Glass" and the hard drumming "You Only Live Once" (a personal fave) are exemplary of that vein of his music and all 3 can be found on their compilation "Port of Mystery" .You mentioned that the volume of the U2 concert was below the threshold of being too loud which made for a really enjoyable experience. I've seen YANNI twice and witnessed the same thing (albeit not in Vegas). A person I used to work with did lighting for music shows and did one if not both of those concerts. He said YANNI was very meticulous about everything; no doubt that had to do with the volume as well. He must have one incredible ear to deduce that for every different venue!! I never understood why rockers had to play their music at such great volumes. Many artists have lost most if not all of their hearing and for what? HUEY LEWIS became very depressed when he lost his. I wonder how STING deals with the same issue. Oh well, until next time. - Andee ✨✨✨

@@andee7255 Thanks so much Andee - I've heard great things about those Eno albums - I don't have any. Don't see them much out in the wild - but looking. I actually have a bunch of Yanni and on the rare occasion will give a listen. Like most saw the Acropolis concert on PBS and I actually have that laserdisc. Picked up a few of his other albums as well. It's a very rare listen for me, but under the right circumstances I throw it on. Never heard of Zero 7 - I'll check it out. Thanks again.

I knew they had a big discography, but that's insane. Obviously the quality has to be all over the place. Their release schedule makes Neil Young and Prince look like slackers. Well I'll see how I like these two. I know they're considered amongst, if not, their best.

Thanks so much Glen. Yea that cover is a little....creepy. Wonder if it's supposed to be related to Richey Edwards as I think they were his leftover lyrics. I don't know. Yea - that Spector set looks awesome.

You're so right. I've definitely slowed down a bit with the purchasing, but still can't catch up .

Thanks. problem is when do I find 20 hours to listen...lol ?

Thanks so much Carl - love Ships In The Night - should've been a hit here in the US...in my dreams...lol. Thanks as always.

Really - how cool is that. Apparently they go out and love those local German restaurants. Are they out near Smithtown or something? Apparently, if you run into Ritchie, best to leave him alone though....I've never met him of course. Candace seems like a very cool sweet LI girl / woman.

@@TheAlanRosenbergShow They live in Millet Place

@@Larrybabbin1957 Thanks Larry - have a great night

Thanks Doug - oh you are so right....I'm a lost cause. I think I need rehab....lol. I really like Sandy Denny too. That's that big green boxset - I know of it, but don't have. I have a great compilation of hers No More Sad Refrains I think it's called. Anyway enjoy that beautiful box - I know you will. Yea she was quite a talent. I'd like to get the Keith audiobook too. Of course the chance of me actually spending 20 hours listening to Springsteen read his book - is remote at this point...lol

Really interesting purchases - I know of some of them. Some kind of "grey" market collections - lots out there - radio shows - bootlegs that because of expired copyrights are being sold. Nice to have actually. I bought a Fanny vinyl album about 2 years ago - still in my backlog unfortunately. I also saw the PBS documentary and thought it was really interesting. I've been familiar with them since the 70's but don't know their music - eventually I'll get to it. Nice Patti Smith grey market collection too. Best, Alan

@@TheAlanRosenbergShow I was able to buy the Beatles at Shea Stadium (1965) of the actual line feed. Also bought Beatles 1965 Atlanta concert. Was able to buy the complete Rolling Stones 1969 Hyde Park concert. Ditto on Altamont concert. Was able to buy some of the 1969 concerts (San Diego, Oakland, Detroit, Boston). All from Japan. Good sound quality (obviously, not professionally recorded). Back in the day, the copyright expiration was 20 years. A few years ago, I read an article that some European countries were going to change the copyright extend the expiration term to a longer time. Not sure if those countries went through with the legislation (though there probably more important issues to worry about than copyright laws).

@@noahbody417 Not sure of the copyright law and how it works - but tons of radio shows being released on "bootleg" cd thru legitimate online retailers. Those 69 Stones thought are totally unofficial - audience recordings - but fun to have.

I think my next video is going to be the sexiest album covers. To me it should be good fun - but you never know how people react to these things. We will see. I know that Nutz cover - though I don't own it. The two times I've been to the UK - I fell in love with the Charity shops - and they were all over. I bought many CD's there for dirt cheap - was a dream come true for me. I could live there - I LOVE London so much!!!!! I also made a trip to Brighton to see the Quadrophenia sights, the pier and ride the Helter Skelter - bucket list. Fantastic.

Those big Be Bop Deluxe boxsets look beautiful. I don't have any....yet. Just the 2 CD reissues. That Live In The Air Age looks huge and awesome.

@@TheAlanRosenbergShow Every show they played that tour! Some variations in many of the songs which is cool. I want the Thin Lizzy Live & Dangerous box one day….

Yea - looks like will be another amazing Madfish box. Best in the business if you ask me. Spector box is sealed - when I open it, I'll let you know and wear it...lol. Looking forward to the Lowell George album, don't know why I never bought it in the past, since I have all the Little Feat albums.

Nice - When REO got really big here, I think many "forgot" that they were the real deal. Then they eventually did get a bit poppy. But I like them a lot. Doesn't get better than seeing a great band in a bar, right? Does Keith read his own book or read by someone else. That would be cool if Keith reads it too.

@@TheAlanRosenbergShow I'll let you know.Always liked the early REO when they really rocked.I bet you've seen alot of bands in bars then became very big.Living in NY

@@thomaswery3087 no not really. The bands would have to be local. So like Good Rats. Zebra. Twisted sister. Maybe Joan Jett.

Kottke is an amazing guitarist.

@@christopherschlacter4953 A couple of months ago I bought a great looking 2-CD collection of Leo Kottke called The Leo Kottke Anthology. My first Kottke purchase ever. I hope I'll get to it...eventually.

Thanks. Yea Blackmore's Night is so much fun live - they are great. Yea the Springsteen audio book was a lucky find at a thrift store - $1.50 actually..lol.

Used record stores, flea market, yard sales, thrift stores. I tend to now tell people where I purchased and how much each item was to hopefully make it more interesting. Thanks.
