It was his final studio album for RCA and the first album that followed the so-called Berlin Trilogy of Low, "Heroes" and Lodger (1977–79). Though considered very significant in artistic terms, the trilogy had proved less successful commercially however with this album Bowie got the perfect balance earning critical acclaim along with great commercial success. Reached #1 in the UK Album chart.

sladesounds 5th May 2014		Vinyl Album The Salsoul Orchestra - Greatest Disco Hits (1977)	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 5th May 2014		Vinyl Album David Bowie - Low (1977)	Low is Bowie's 11th studio album. Though of as his most influential releases, Low was the first of the "Berlin Trilogy", a series of collaborations with Brian Eno (the others being "Heroes" & Lodger). The album was in fact recorded in France and only mixed in Berlin. The working title was New Music Night and Day. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 3rd May 2014		Vinyl Album David Bowie - Lodger (1979)	Lodger is Bowie's 13th studio album. The last of the 'Berlin Trilogy' recorded in collaboration with Brian Eno. Produced in Switzerland and New York City it was seen as being more accessible than its predecessors Low and "Heroes" due to the lack of instrumentals and also being somewhat more pop-oriented. It was still an experimental record in many ways and was not, by Bowie's standards, a major commercial success. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 3rd May 2014		Vinyl Album The Groundhogs - Thank Christ For The Bomb (1970)	The third studio album recorded by The Groundhogs. It was engineered by Martin Birch who had previously worked on albums by Jeff Beck, Deep Purple, Fleetwood Mac and Peter Green. The image of Pete Cruickshank on the left of the cover is adapted from photograph Q1 in the Imperial War Museum's photograph archive. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 3rd May 2014		Vinyl Album The Black Crowes - The Southern Harmony And Musical Companion (1992)	This is the second album by The Black Crowes, the first to feature Marc Ford on lead guitar who replaced Jeff Cease who was fired the year before. The album's name derives from the full name of the Southern Harmony, an influential 1835 hymnal compiled by William Walker. #1 on the Billboard 200 Album chart. #477 in Rock Hard magazine's 2005 book of The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums Of All Time. #100 in Guitar World magazine's 2006 list of The Greatest 100 Guitar Albums Of All Time.
sladesounds 1st May 2014		Vinyl Album Bonnie Pointer - Bonnie Pointer (1979)	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 1st May 2014		Vinyl Album David Bowie - Heroes (1977)	Bowie's 12th studio album, the 2nd part of his Berlin Trilogy with Brian Eno (the other releases being Low and Lodger). Recorded at Hansa Tonstudio in what was then West Berlin, the album was promoted with the tag line *"There's Old Wave. There's New Wave. And there's David Bowie..."* The album won the 1977 NME Album Of The Year. The title track (perhaps one of his best known songs) is the story of two lovers meeting at the Berlin Wall.
sladesounds 30th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Valerie Simpson - Exposed (1972)	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 30th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Bowie - Diamond Dogs (1974)	My scans with the black labels most probably come from a 1980's re-release.
sladesounds 30th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Evel Knievel - Evel Knievel (1974)	This looks so cool :cool: [YouTube Video] [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 30th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Cissy Houston - The Long And Winding Road (1971)	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 30th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Queen - Jazz (1978)	Carouselambra - if your copy has an alt # ie 6E-170 you were right to add the album as a new entry but wrong to add it it here an extra cat #. The extra cat# is when 2 or more cat#'s appear on the sleeve or label. You ideally need to add scans to your entry to show the alternative cat#. I have removed your entry for the extra cat#.
sladesounds 27th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album The Pretty Things - Live At The 100 Club (2014)	I haven't added label scans as you can see from the insert my copy is a white label test pressing - they are blanks. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 27th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album David Bowie - ChangesTwoBowie (1981)	[YouTube Video] [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 24th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Blue Ridge Mountain Music (1961)	About the same time that London started the green-label 10-inch "Origins of Jazz" series, they started the red-label 10-inch "American Jazz" series using the LZ-x 14000 series (where "x" was a letter designating source label). The American Jazz Recording series started in 1954 and was overtaken in 1956 by the 15000 12-inch "American Jazz Recording" series. Actual number released I don't have but it should not be too hard to manage on a list. If at a later date it starts to appear to be unmanageable/unusable then it can be looked at again as to the best way forward.
sladesounds 24th Apr 2014		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Blue Ridge Mountain Music (1961)	It was agreed by the mods in the early testing stages that London Jazz would be entered as London and a list would be produced to group them together. I will get my finger out today and update those entered as London Jazz to London and will update the list. Please let me know if any other crop up and need editing.
