#AllMyVinyl #157 - "Metal Health" by Quiet Riot. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl #BangYourHead

Decided to write about this album now as I'm seeing Quiet Riot live tonight. Spinning this on the turntable brings up a lot of memories (most of 'em laid out here), as I bought this brand new in 1983.

#AllMyVinyl #156 - "Seven the Hard Way" by Pat Benatar. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Today is the 40th anniv of this LP's release (30 Oct 1985) so I had to spin the vinyl today. This was the end of her earlier period before moving on to a a mature style of song. Check out my thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #155 - "Killers" by Iron Maiden. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl #UpTheIrons

The timing of this was perfeft - Killers was the next album in my series, and today (21 Oct) is the 1yr anniversary of the death of Paul Di'Anno who sings on this today. Killer album - my thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #154 - "Killer Carlin" by George Carlin. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

This one is a 1981 vinyl rerelease of a 1963 album (recorded in 1960) by George Carlin & his former partner Jack Burns. It's the first in my vinyl series where I went "nope, didn't like that". My thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #153 - "Kill 'em All" by Metallica. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

The first Metallica album was - for all this time - an album that I never cared for. I didn't HATE it, but I never cared for it. Until the fall of 2025, when I turned around on it. The details of why are on my blog.

#AllMyVinyl #152 - "Iron Maiden" by Iron Maiden. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl #UpTheIrons

Back to vinyl with the first Maiden album, now 45yrs old. It has an earlier sound than what they became known for, but still unmistakably Maiden. Title track MAY have been replayed 5x. My thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #151 - "For Those About To Rock" by AC/DC #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

While I bought this album new in Nov 1981, I never owned it on vinyl until Jul 2025. The title track is an absolute top AC/DC track of all time. There's other goodness here too. My thoughts on it are here.

#AllMyVinyl #150 - "The Joshua Tree" by U2 #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Back to the vinyl series with this classic from U2. My wife & I met when this album came out. We're still together, this album is still great. It has STRONG memories for both of us. My thoughts on the album are here.

#AllMyVinyl #149 - "Black Light / White Noise" by Adrian Smith & Richie Kotzen #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

The second album from this duo is a good mostly blues based hard rock album. It's odd as the albums I do for this vinyl series I have memories of - this was NEW. My thoughts are here.

#AllMyVinyl #148 - "Agent Provocateur" by Foreigner #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

The 5th Foreigner album is one that's known for "I Wanna Know What Love is" mostly. But there's a lot of other good stuff on there. Finished this 2 mins before I found out about Oz on Tue. My thoughts are here.

#AllMyVinyl #146 / 147 - Jazz Sabbath I & II #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Today's entry is a double - two albums of jazz covers of Black Sabbath songs from Adam Wakeman's "Jazz Sabbath" project. If you like jazz and Sabbath, then these will be up your alley. Read my thoughts on them here.

#AllMyVinyl #144 - Led Zeppelin IV #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Today’s album is one that when I saw it was next up on my spreadsheet I dreaded. Not because I don’t like it – I adore it. But that’s the problem. Still, I managed to bang out just under 3,000 words about this masterpiece.

#AllMyVinyl #144 - Is This The Life We Really Want? by Roger Waters #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

An album that frustrated the hell out of me. 25 yrs after the masterpiece that was "Amused to Death" we get this. I was SO disappointed. My opinion changed a bit as years went by, but still meh.

Self created playlists are the way to go. I've also been writing about my own vinyl collection. I've been told by a few people it's turned them on to stuff they didn't know. So it happens. :)

#AllMyVinyl #143 - Iron Eagle Soundtrack #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

This is an album I fully admit I have for a single track - Dio's "Hide in the Rainbow". That was a thing you did in 1986 - before today's digital music. Most of this album is forgettable, tho. My thoughts on it are here.

#AllMyVinyl #142 - "Invisible Touch" by Genesis #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

A Genesis album that tends to split the fandom - people tend to hate it or love in equal measure. One of my all time fav Genesis tracks comes from this one, as does a fav deep cut. My thoughts on the album are here.

Share that online. ;)

I’ve been doing that with my vinyl catalog project.

#AllMyVinyl #141 - "Invincible Shield" by Judas Priest #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

The most recent Priest album is the latest in my vinyl series. Another killer metal album in a long line of killer metal albums by JP. I detail why on my blog, but a short version: Rob's vocals & guitars!

30 yrs ago (20 Jun 1995 - in US), Black Sabbath released the Forbidden album. It's generally disliked, I've always liked it. Have written about it a few times. One was a 25th anniv article for my Sab site. The other was the entry in my #AllMyVinyl series on my blog (covers vinyl remix). #ShakeTheCan

#AllMyVinyl #140 - "The Introduction" by The Steve Morse Band #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

Today's album is one I never knew existed until I saw it in a bin at Half Price Books. Know Morse well from Deep Purple & Kansas. It's a instrumental LP with a range of guitar sounds. My thoughts here.

Have you poked through my series at all? There's an index of all of 'em here.

#AllMyVinyl #139 - "Inside The Electric Circus" by W.A.S.P. #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

The third WASP studio album is not one that's stuck in my memory over time. Today's listen did nothing to change that. There's a lot of filler - stuff that's just outright boring. My thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #138 - "Inside Star Trek" by Gene Roddenberry #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl #StarTrek

This one is an oddity. it's the 2nd thing I EVER bought for myself on vinyl (back in 1976). It's a mostly spoken word album where GR talks to various Trek cast about the show. My thoughts here.

#AllMyVinyl #137 - "Inside Information" by Foreigner #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

An album that I bought new on a Foreigner high and was very disappointed. Today was the first day I listened to it in full in 30 years. Not much has changed in my feelings towards it (which can be read here).

#AllMyVinyl #136 - "Hunting High and Low" by a-Ha #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #vinyl

This is one I ABSOLUTELY bought in 1985 solely for one song. No YouTube, no iTunes back then, so buying an entire album for one sing was a thing I did a bunch back then.. My thoughts are here (mostly meh).
