Vinyl Rhetoric

Episode 218: OMD / Crush

This is the sixth album from this English synth pop band.  Kingcow enjoyed their sound.  Surprisingly, Heather had not heard them before.  Hope you like what you hear!

Episode 217: Berlin Philharmonic / Mozart's Requiem in D Minor K626 (side 2)

This is side 2 of Heather's classical double album which she would take to the island.  This has some interesting interludes during the music.  Listening to this could make one very reflective or introspective.  Relax and listen.

Episode 216: Sublime / Sublime

This self-titled release was the third album and the final one with Bradley Nowell.  Their reggae/punk/ska sound seems pretty unique.  As far as albums go, this was a decent choice by The Panda. 

Passing: B. J. Thomas

Once again a musician has passed away.  Once again only Kingcow knows who he was.  The album, "Reunion", was the second musical album that Kingcow owned.  Kingcow enjoyed this album.  Heather not so much.  R.I.P. B. J. R.I.P.

Episode 215: Jesse Johnson's Revue / Jesse Johnson's Revue

This 1985 release was listened to regularly by Kingcow.  This former member of The Time sounded good out on his own.  Hopefully, after hearing this, you Rhetoricians will want to get up and dance!  Enjoy!

Episode 214: .38 Special / Wild-Eyed Southern Boys

This is the fourth album from .38 Special.  Kingcow really enjoyed this '81 release.  Good southern rock. 

Episode 213: Berlin Philharmonic / Mozart's Requiem in D Minor K626

Here is another first for Vinyl Rhetoric...a classical album.  This one is interesting to Kingcow because it has operatic singing on it.  This might be one of Heather's island albums.  Sit back with a nice beverage and relax to the first side of Requiem.

Episode 212: Fleetwood Mac / Rumours

This the 11th album from Fleetwood Mac.  It's definitely a classic!  Enjoy side two of this 1977 release.

Episode 211: The Mamas & The Papas / Deliver

This is the third album from The Mamas & The Papas.  They have a distinct sound.  Not bad from an album that came out in 1967. 

Episode 210: Coldplay / A Rush Of Blood To The Head

The Panda brought this popular group.  Kingcow had really only heard the name of the band.  He ended up really liking the album. We're sure the Rhetoricians are more familiar with them than Kingcow was.  Enjoy!
