Deluxes bc
WN Dlx has the pivitol Lifehouse song ~
"Pure and Easy" on it!
(you can hear the opening of P&E at
the end of WN's The Song Is Over)
[Quadrophrenia, Tommy close choices]
AB Dlx wil have a lot of the B sides (Lady With The Spinning Head) and recorded but ?not officially issued songs (that I also love, and found online about 17 yrs ago?) like "Blow Your House Down"!
[NLOTH close choice]
************************
Well, if you're going to add more than 1 or 2 ... I'd add:
Springsteen - probably Darkness on the Edge of Town (w Born to Run, and Magic close choices)
The Patti Smith Group - probably Land (1975 - 2000) contains a lot of my favorites [single album probably Dream of Life]
Midnight Oil - Diesel and Dust
(Lucky for me I've seen all these bands multiple times!)

Music albums (non songs)
.
Structures from Space - Steve Roach
a slowly changing set of a melody
Sonorous, deeply relaxing
Variations for Winds, Strings and Keyboards -
Steve Reich
A bright minimalist work Reminds me of Mid-Spring unfolding
