Genesis - Trespass 1970
Rock. Treasure drips w/ promise-opens doorway into one of rock’s greatest journeys for me. Turned me onto early folk-prog wave (Strawbs, Renaissance). Next LP defined their classic era.

The Doors-Strange Days 1967: A Work in Progress 2025
Rock. Uncanny peek behind curtain-strips away final polish. Rough edges highlight the doors (pun) they were opening in late-’60’s, a thrilling glimpse into rock history.

Matthew Fisher - Journey’s End 1973
Rock. Procol Harum Hammond player’s solo debut-architect of their sound some say. Wander off the beaten path & savor the treasures of this little-known album. Lost classic.

10,000 Maniacs-Blind Man’s Zoo 1989
Rock. Dusky folk-rock-protests war & poverty. Guitar work glows, keyboards sigh & Merchant’s voice carries the weight. Thoughtful lyrics. Ages gracefully.

Oingo Boingo-Dead Man’s Party 1985
Rock. Ska/new wave/post-punk sound. Angular guitar riffs, percussion, tight horns & rhythm changes that rock. Underappreciated then. A rare record-clever, gloriously strange.
