I voted in this poll years ago but never commented.  To me the first album is by far the best, in fact their only really good album (4 stars), full of youthful exuberance and that organ/piano combo.  In Held Twas in I is a bloated epic and they never seemed to know what to do with the great Robin Trower.  That said, pretty much every album from 1967-1974 has at least a few good tracks, with Grand Hotel being perhaps the best of these.

If I could own only one and listen to only one it would be Shine On Brightly.

Sorry folks, I will vote here. I can't choose, simply cause I love all of their albums. Well, almost all at least...
And since In Concert with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra is not included, I decided not to participate. But up to Exotic Birds, all are excellent albums! Broken Barricade and 9th are the weakest ones in my opinion...

You are most welcome!

Thank you. :)

I find their 2017 release to be quite nice Neuvau, pretty fresh for a 55 year old band

^I like it quite much too. The Well´s On Fire is also better than the Prodigal Stranger, although it also has some good moments.

It took a long time for me to try any of the post-Trower 70's albums...definitely a different feel but love Grand Hotel, Ninth, and Exotic has that great remake of Monsieur Armond Wink

Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…
