Recommends in music: This is his Top 30 list in addition to some other albums he has recommended.

I’ve been buying a lot of stoner/doom type stuff lately, like the new Nebula and Roachpowder albums. My favorite new CDs are Pete Way’s (UFO bassist) solo album, which is like a harder, punkier UFO. Pete can’t sing his way out of a paper bag, but he’s got attitude! I also like The Quill, a Swedish band who sound like Badlands with Jon Lord on organ, and the new Cult album is great, much to my surprise.

We tried out a number of singers, but nobody clicked until 1979, when Tim Baker, our head roadie, tried singing lead on “Hype Performance”.

Nb! What are the name of their session vocals then? What did they sing? What are the dates? And something more interesting about the vocals then?
