Thunderbird Club

shame about Polytone....really dig their tone and are built with top quality components....unfortunately they're put together like dog doo doo which (IMO) was mostly responsible for their demise.....

That collection is pure sex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is my transition from prog to post punk records...

I’ll stop torturing everyone after this, but for their first two records (only), I thought this band was perfection between 1980-1982. Pretty sure I’m the only one, but I’m cool with that :)



I like WOV a lot and am probably one of the few people that liked the 7 Days in Sammystown. Maybe because I shared Andy Prieboy's fashion sense and hairdo back then. :cool: I just look at them as a different version of the band. The Stan Ridgeway stuff was cool and the Andy P version was cool in its own way IMO.

 
I don’t even know who you people are anymore :/

Love Belew but there’d be no Belew without Fripp

I agree - another true innovator/pioneer around that same period was John MacLaughlin. Check out this sh#t -

 
Great stuff!

My first awareness of the power of electric guitar might have been stirred by a few guitarists that I heard before hearing Hendrix, but then there was John McLaughlin, and then there was Nels Cline. Granted I wasn't aware of Link Wray at that point...
