Let There Be Rock – ACDC

Although a pop rock fan since the very beginning, I have been following the Australian band ACDC for some time and when I got a chance to pick this vinyl many years ago, I did not regret it as hard rock bands have always been a part of my musical upbringing. Adding this LP to my collection, I have pleasantly listened to and re-listened to this work full of energy, with the unparalleled virtuosity of Angus and the overwhelming voice of, never forgotten, Bon Scott. The whole band pays homage to rock and the blues.

Toys in the Attic - Aerosmith

After a very long tour in support of their album, ‘Get Your Wings’, Aerosmith was tight and playing better than ever. They were ready to jump back in the studio for new album and bring back producer Jack Douglas. Their first two albums used up all the songs they had been playing for years and so it was time they brought out some brand new material for their ever growing fans.

It foreshadowed the future path of his career, with less success in the United States than in Europe, reaching #83 on the Billboard chart and achieving gold status only in 1989, while it reached #13 in UK and spent nearly a year and a half in the UK album charts.

Madonna - The First Album – Madonna

The debut studio album by American singer Madonna, by Sire Records made the songstress a household name instantly. This was an album I remember in my youth singing her catchy songs and dancing to them. I am so glad to have this original pressing in my collection. This has been one of my favorite albums since I was a kid.

With studio album number six, Elton John took a giant step towards creative independence, topping the charts in both the US and the UK with this album released way back in 1974.
