neil Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I wonder if anyone else has ever bought a first album by a band/artiste and been so impressed with it that they never bought another title for fear of being let down by it not being so good? I've always been wary of buying anything of Country Joe & the Fish since purchasing their Electric Music for the Mind and Body debut 26 years ago. I only write this because I bought the follow up today and wondering why it took so long to buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) Yeah, ditto... if I hear something I like, my trust in a band goes up and I'm only encouraged to buy more of their stuff Edited March 30, 2008 by Guest rephrased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of happened to me. I purchased Hold Your Fire but did not listen to it for quite awhile. Needless to say, I was blown away when I went to the concert. It's one of the best Rush albums.

Shawna Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I'm with Radhi and Farin, if I like the initial output of the band, I'll look forward to their next effort. If, of course, that next effort sucks, then it's money wasted and a lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otokichi Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 When I'm totally in the dark about a new (to me) group/musician, I look for a live CD release to hear how they interact with the audience. This can lead to interesting results; Flogging Molly's first official CD release was a live album! Still, this approach along with tuning in PBS' "Austin City Limits" and "Soundstage" has led to interesting acquisitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
