Where Classic Rock and Metal Music Fans Hang Out
Awesome run of excellence
Ok, what artists, and which albums, do you think were an uninterrupted period (or run) of greatness?
Here is a few I think were awesome stretches....
UFO - from the time Schenker first joined, to the time he (first) left...6 straight awesome albums...Phenomenom, Force It, No Heavy Petting, Lights Out, Stangers In The Night, and Obsession...thats 6 straight records that were all awesome in my opinion.
Aerosmith - the first 4 to start their career...Aerosmith, Get Your Wings, Toys In The Attic, and Rocks. Have not come close to reaching those heights since then...for my musical tastes, at least.
Van Halens entire output up until David Lee Roth left. Was that 5, or 6, straight killer albums? Van Halen, Van Halen II, Women And Children First, Fair Warning, Diver Down...and oh yes, 1984...so that makes 6 straight great records.
ZZ Top....from about 1972 thru 1976...4 albums...from their second one...Rio Grande Mud, all the way through Tres Hombres, Fandango, and Tejas.
The Nuge...from Ted Nugent, to Free For All, to Cat Scratch Fever, to Double Live Gonzo.
So what are some more awesome, un-interrupted, runs of excellence for anyone else?
