Brad, what are your top fave 5 records which have
impacted you the most in your life musically or otherwise?




Let it Bleed by the Rolling StonesLet it Bleed
by The Rolling Stones



Every track on this record is a winner - an album made when the band
was still young, but around long enough to evolve a sound that is mature and nuanced.





Abbey Road by the BeatlesAbbey Road
by The Beatles



The montage/painterly style of this album captured my imagination at a
very young age.





Diamond Dogs by David BowieDiamond Dogs
by David Bowie



The album doesn't quit. Side one is a continuous track throughout.
Bowie's voice goes to places in 'Sweet Thing' that are like sticks of dynamite.





The Roches by The RochesThe Roches
by The Roches



After hearing this trio of sisters singing their angelic sibling
harmonies at the Winnipeg Folk Festival I was hooked.





Oranges and Lemons by XTCOranges and Lemons
by XTC



The meandering key changes, extreme dynamics, and pure genuis of this
record hit me like a sledge hammer when first played to me by George
West on his car stereo one cold winter day in the late 1980's.


Thank you Brad for joining us!   High-5!
