The Songfactors' Choice Top Albums of the Decade: The '70's

[edna]

I had that one too...

My dad brought it home to me before the official release, he was a journalist so he had all the promo records. he knew I was a fan...

So I told him "Can I have six other Stones albums?" and he said "OK, I'll ask for them"

I was asking for other records but that was the first release from Rolling Stones Records and they gave him six copies of Sticky Fingers...

So six friends of mine got their promo-Lp with the zipper and the number and the seal "promo" et all...

I have the zipper cover too. This album was the first one where I really nailed the saxophone parts...instead of sitting in room playing guitar, I stood there playing sax to songs that had sax parts and songs that didn't. I would make it up or imitate the guitar lines (you should have heard me imitate guitar feedback!!) When I got this album I started working on the sax part for Brown Sugar and that became my "local" signature piece...I had it down dead on.

Sticky Fingers was the first Stones album that I owned but I wasn't lucky enough to get the zipper. Technically it might have been purchased by my boyfriend of the time, but you know how that is .... went the boyfriend went I got custody of Sticky Fingers.

Poor Bob Marley... not even nominated. It ain't love that he's feeling.

I considered nominating Marley, but 2 nominations is hard dealt, yet fair.

[Farin]

Hey LeeBB, it's been some time

[bluesboy]

Poor Bob Marley... not even nominated. It ain't love that he's feeling.

Bob Marley & the Wailers were probably at best around the 15th ---> 25th ranking for the 70's.
