A local radio station down the road. Q107 FYI....& FYI sucks bigtime in my estimation,has had some kinda "What 3 records would you take with you on a desert island" thing goin' down this week-end.

Asking the average Joe he'd probably say the obvious......Zep Two,The Wall,& Back In Black

Asking myself would be alot more difficult,obviously there would be more than the 3.After some thought over this last 2 day's I have decided on 3 I suppose....

Here they are in no apparent order>>>>>FOGHAT-NIGHTSHIFT 1976

An outstanding record but really a departure from what Foghat's roots were...."Boogie Blues"The fact that this record was more heavier than the previous release's are what turned me on at the age of 16.This disc was played to death on my parent's console stereo thruout the time of 1976 & in my time,I had become the Official Foghat Booster of my high school....Easy cause nobody had ever heard of them before & the music was an easy turn on.

The climax of that time was seeing the band w/Wet Willie in Niagra Falls, New York in 1978.
To this a remarkable adventure & concert to forever remember..Front row!!Trip's over the Rainbow & Peace Bridge could never go without a visit to Buffalo for some of those famous hottie's...WINGS!!

CHICKEN WING CENTRAL


Stay tuned for the other 2 "Desert Island take along LP's".........
