I think Wiki does a pretty good job on bands, much better than the old print rock encyclopedias, but they can't have
everything. I guess it's a minor irony that Townshend didn't like the cover when he was the only member who "gave it
his all."

NICK DRAKE Five Leaves Left

 

[Detective Jim McLeod]

Byrds Mar 1973

A reunion of the five original Byrds but a disappointing album. Gene Clark has the opener "Full Circle" which is OK. McGuinn has the best song "Pretty Mary" a lilting ballad with a small taste of the harmony singing which was the magical part of the group. David Crosby handles Joni Mitchell's "For Free" fairly well. McGuinn has a rocker "Born To Rock N Roll" which sounds more like The Band than the The Byrds. Clark does an OK version of Neil Young's "Cowgirl In The Sand". Hillman has a jaunty country tune 'Borrowing Time" with some mandolin. Crosby has a couple of forgettable ones "Long Live The King" and "Laughing" but he still has a nice voice. It ends with Clark singing another Neil Young song "See The Sky About To Rain" This would be the last time on record the group would be together, it was better than their last two but not up to their standards.

Viva Roxy Music. I like the first five albums before the lay off more than the ones that came after, although they're all
worthwhile. As you likely know, Roxy Music had limited success in the U.S. compared to the U.K. I was visiting friends in
Jersey in 1979 and tried to get tickets to the Manifesto tour stop in NY, but they were all sold out by the time I got
there. I would imagine they went pretty fast.

I think most like the first 5 albums (I pretty much stopped with Siren too) but I listen most often these days to Avalon... !

I listen to both IGGY POP and Siouxsie... I'm particularly partial to THE STOOGES. Fun House is my favorite Rock record, easily.
