Congratulations on my having musical taste more in order. Imo when the Beetles and 'Stones came along, they destroyed popular music forever, and it has never recovered.

Might have told this one here before.

Fortunate to have several, young, intelligent, attractive female friends from work.

Several years ago, after I returned to the office at the end of the day, two of the closest approached me and said:

"We were wondering. Which event in human history happened first?

The date you started work here

OR

Were we born?"

(You know the answer...)

THAT was a heads up!

Way before that. Elvis Presley destroyed popular music. Pat Boone destroyed music in general.

Note to self - Don't return to this thread. Unless you really want to know why horse racing lost touch with the times.

I can't think of records from that time without thinking of those Columbia House record club offers. It was usually a rip off but if you waited for the right promotion you could get a decent deal. Wonder how long it's been since that went out of business.

I got a lot of good albums for 11 cents, Al!
Funny, I was thinking about them the other day -wondering if they were still around. The big part of the Sunday paper was going over the list in the flier endlessly, trying to narrow down what ones I wanted too order.

The trick was to have the full catalogue. They would send anything they had but usually what they advertised you either had or didn't want.

The irony is that Ozzy's guitarist, who co-wrote "Crazy Train," the late, great Randi Rhodes, was a classically trained guitarist, who could've just as easily been a violin prodigy.

the Mr. Crowley solo is my favorite of his. I remember on one of the two albums Rhodes did he played a classical piece he wrote, called Dee

Dee was a nice short and fairly easy tune to play. I loved Randy's playing on those 2 albums. Had to learn all his solos back in the day, even though the Crazy Train solo is probably the most well-known, my favorite one to play was "Over the Mountain". The switch between the 1st part of the solo and the 2nd part I just love...where you do a 3 fret hammer trill while reaching over with your other hand to grab/pull/frig the same string.
Always l liked the solo in "Believer", "Mr Crowley" and "Revelation Mother Earth" too.

Ozzy always had a decent guitarist working with him, Jake E Lee was decent and Zakk Wylde is a monster

What makes me feel old?

Depends.
