No.95: “Magical Mystery Tour” (soundtrack) by The Beatles (1967)
Wouldn’t it have been fantastic if Sgt. Pepper’s had been a double album with Magical Mystery Tour forming side two of the record? We wouldn’t have had that eternally perplexed state of wishing that the Penny lane/Strawberry Fields Forever single had been on an album. The “movie” itself should never have really existed, it’s an awful concoction of a Butlin’s bus ride through the countryside and is a right waste of an hour and a half.
But the music contained within the album is awesome. Originally a double EP, and with the two a-sides mentioned above apart, we have the wonderful ‘Fool On The Hill’, ‘Your Mother Should Know’, ‘Blue Jay Way’, ‘I Am The Walrus’, ‘All You Need Is Love’….the list of classics goes on and on.
As always with The Beatles, it’s not easy to find original videos (and they had ceased live work by 1966) so I’ve formed a grab bag of various odds and ends. Very surprisingly, the full album in audio format was available, so it’s in my extra post.

No.94: “My Generation” by The Who (1965)
Debut from The ‘oo. Previously recording as The High Numbers on Track Records, a subsidiary of Decca they came to prominence with their first single which became the title track of this landmark album. Wearing Union Jacks the band began their take on the ‘mod’ movement and made it their own. The final track on the album is a solo by John Entwhistle called ‘The Ox’, which shows his prowess on the bass guitar (see later video posted below).

BTW Floydy you did not berate me yesterday, just pointed out that I was a late arrival. Friends never need to apologize:lol:
You can’t go wrong with The Who, Sweetie Pie. One of the greatest rock bands ever. Your hubby has good taste:cool:
Yesterday is in the past 
No.92: “Shamrock Diaries” by Chris Rea (1985)
If you ever wanted a record that is so personal to a singer-songwriter’s roots and the place he grew up in, this album is surely one of ones to listen to. Rather like Deacon Blue’s Raintown album, which came a couple of years later, Rea sings the about the shipyards on the Tyne (‘Steel River’) and of the girls he used to know in his youth (‘Stainsby Girls’, ‘Josephine’). He sings of the Celtic ways of life too with tales from Ireland and Scotland and I rate this as almost Chris Rea’s best album (but not quite my favourite). Any ideas what that may be, Ffosse?

Yep like all those. Floydy you are now influencing me.
I need to explore different music anyway.
Last one today.
No.91: “Please Please Me” by The Beatles (1963)
Following the moderate success of first single ‘Love Me Do’ in 1962, a debut album so important, so famous was released that was to propel this mop top combo from Liverpool into the world’s most popular band of all-time. The album itself was a mix of classic rock ‘n’ roll covers and self-penned originals by Lennon & McCartney. With their next album they took America and the world.
