7. The Calling

Side 4
8. I've Seen All Good People
9. Parallels
10. Roundabout
 
I like Drama but #1 - you should run...
Not a long standing Yes or prog fan, and new to the Yes thing, so no historical or emotional attachment to any album or line up.
Not much between the albums I listed for me, but think the guitars sound better on Drama, then again I can see Howe sound was the perfect fit for a Yes guitarist on those early albums but think the sound on Drama and Rabin on 90125 are more to my personal tastes.

The Calling and Does it really Happen were on my short list. Two fab tracks and the bass on DIRH is other worldly

Classic Rock A to Z
The letter H


Easy choice for me this week and that is Heart. Not for the Private Audition to Bad Animals period but their debut up to Bebe le Strange.
Their masterpiece for me is Little Queen with the iconic track Barracuda.
I saw Heart support Queen at the famous Milton Keynes outdoor gig many moons ago.
Special mention to Steve Howe and Steve Hackett as brilliant guitarists.
Roger Hodgson for his contribution to most of the best from Supertramp as a singer/songwriter and multi instrumentalist.

Halestorm
Hawkwind
Helix
Helloween
Humble Pie
Hollywood Vampires
Hanoi Rocks
Hole
Jimi Hendrix
Sammy Hagar
Haken
Hammerfall
Helium

awaits more comprehensive list from @OB1 :-)

Well, yes, some of the bass playing is wonderful. DIRH is a standout in that regard; as is Parallels.
Chris Squire is my Rock god.
Parallels is possibly my no1 Yes track.
The bass on “ No opportunity Necessary” from Time and a Word” extraordinary playing from such a young bassist.

My list is above.

I think Heart are possibly my favourite H act. I like pretty much all their stuff. I was delighted to find an album from 2004 by them I didn't know existed in a 2nd hand record store the other day. Seen them a few times, incl. supporting Queen - but in Leeds; most recently with an orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall. Anne Wilson is simply a female Robert Plant.

Never bought much Hawkwind in the past - although first gig I saw by them was the day Marc Bolan died - but been on a quest the last year or so to collect their best albums.

Special mention for Hanoi Rocks who were friends of my best friends. I finally got round to adding all their albums to my collection with a box set purchase. Aside from a compilation cd, I didn't have anything else anymore: I used to tape their albums from my mate's vinyl versions and my tapes are long gone. Most of the material is very familiar and so good. Simply tragic what happened to Razzle.
