Additional notes
Album Notes: Though largely ignored upon its original release in 1977, and previously available on CD for a very brief time in the early 1990s, the sole solo album released by Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson in his lifetime has long been considered a lost masterpiece. PACIFIC OCEAN BLUE could not be further from the surf and sand, cars and girls world of the Beach Boys' early hits. In its mix of lavish orchestrations, funereal tempos, and haunted, often depressing lyrics, PACIFIC OCEAN BLUE sounds like the spiritual heir not only of PET SOUNDS, but of Neil Young's TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT. The two-disc reissue contains outtakes from this album's sesssions as well as the entirety of Wilson's never-released second solo album, written and recorded in 1978 and '79.

...or work it seems to be a place they like in the same way as Lake Tahoe on A vs. Monkey Kong. A very calm sound with an easygoing beat and soft instruments makes this a must even if you don’t actually like A.
The next song “Shut Yer Face” is a lot louder than that, which has passed us by but there is no doubt that it is a decent song. A very enjoyable song about relationships and how as much as we argue with the other half its inevitable that things will get worked out as you really cant live without you’re loved ones. The song it’s self has its louder peaks but also has a softer element to it. This sounds like a few of the songs on the second album and is just a superb song probably one of my favourites.
This track was inspired by a former member of the Beach Boys, DennisWilson. Its called “PacificOceanBlue” and it is a very lively...

...Everybody knows Led Zeppelin as one of the best rock 'n roll bands ever. And, in my opinion, Led Zeppelin II is one of the best albums ever made. It has the popular rockers like "Heartbreaker" and "Whole Lotta Love," but probably my favorite song is "Bring it on Home" (last track of the album). This song is just amazing. When I bought the album (when i was 13) I just wanted to hear the popular stuff, but "Bring it on Home" truly made me a Zephead. The legacy of John Bonham's drumming is also featured in this album in "Moby Dick." It is just a great all-around album. If you don't have this album (yes, all 10 of you) I recommend you buy it as soon as possible. What kind of CD collection does not have Zeppelin II???...
