12. Bugs Henderson: At Last



You probably do not know anything at all about Bugs Henderson. He was a local guitar hero here in Dallas and Texas in general. He turned down a big record deal because he didn't want that rock and roll lifestyle to destroy his family or health. He put plenty of bread on the table, playing in clubs all over the southwest and packing in those houses when he did.

There are a few recordings of his gigs, but this one is the first and the best. This album is why I think "Top 100" lists will never tell the truth because not everybody voting on them knows of guys like Bugs, playing their hearts out under the radar, and showing everyone in the crowd just how it's done.

Bugs passed away a few years ago, but this album always lives on for me.

Give it a listen, I strongly encourage it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyP4tlMf5dE

11...gotta have some Phil:



This is an interesting exercise. It changes the music I am selecting because many of what I normally would have chosen are already scooped up. But since we can borrow, it's all good and I don't need to worry about Paranoid or The Stranglers or, etc.

I know we already have 2 Megadeth classics but I think we need a third one, this being one of my favourites!

[Zzzptm]

Got some awesome choices up there, definitely ones I'm putting my name on the sign-up sheet for borrowing...

1. Made in Japan
2. Thick as a Brick
3. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (letting Billy bring Sabotage)
4. Rainbow Rising
5. Ship Ahoy
6. Heaven and Hell
7. Scheherazade
8. Mountain Live: The Road Goes Ever On
9. Machine Head
10. Oops! Wrong Planet
11. Photo Finish
12. Bugs Henderson: At Last
13. Purpendicular



I only know this on CD, but it's available on 2 discs of 180g vinyl, so I'm snagging those and taking it to the island. The vinyl also includes "Don't Hold Your Breath", so it's a done deal as that song is my favorite from this most excellent of albums. This is a happy album overall, an honest album, a welcoming album. It proves that there is most certainly light at the end of the tunnel. And even if there's another tunnel ahead, there will be light at the end of that one, as well.

^^^I was gonna take that too! Well leaves me room for something else then

That's one of the nicest things about this thread, we're all going to cover each other, so we're getting more than just 25 discs to listen to.
