BostonJ?oson-This is highly regarded debut album
from America's premier heavy metal band. Led by Tom
Scholz, (who happens to have a master's degree in
engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology), Boston won the hearts (and dollars) of America
with their song "More .Than A Feeling." .
Boston is just about everyone's selection as "Most
Likely to SucceecT-weU wait and see.
Christmas seller
NEaglesofe CaHfornutNicdy timed release that
certainly made "a bundle on Christmas present sales alone
This is not to say that the Eagles are just another
commercially conscious band. That is only part of the
story,
On Hotel California the Eagles continue to synthesize
the many and diverse styles of contemporary and progres
sive music to create a product that manages to please
everyone at some point along the way,
Jackson Browne7e Pretcnder-Thc "every man-" re
turns with an intense and personal package that is lyrically
and musically stronger than any of his previous releases.
Browne's quiet cynicism succeeds due to his unpretent
ious and often raw vocals. The album is keyboard-dominated
and a continuation of Brown's search for self. A very
fine album by all standards.
' Recycled group
FirefaUFiteai7-The debut album by this five member
band is clearly the sleeper of the year. FirefaH is a group
of musicians recycled from the Frying Burrito Brothers
and The Byrds. For fans of Poco, Loggins and Messina or
Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young this album is a must.
Vocal harmony and country flavored melodies are the
group's stamp of identity.
Jeff BeckMretf-JefT Beck's quest for a rock-jazz
fusion succeeds where many other artists have f ailed. Wise
production by mastermind George Martin and excellent
performances by guitarist Beck and ex-Machavishau
Orchestra keyboardist Jan Hammer insured the album's
sales success.
Blue Oyster CxAtlAgents of Fortune-LOC surprised
everyone with this album released in the summer of 1976.
In the past the Cult's albums were laden with heavy
chords and excessive riffing. r ,
Agents of Fortune is constructed more simply and the
sound became more comprehensible to the many who
were not DOC fanatics. The album also provided DOC
with their first hit single 'YDon't Fear) The Reaper",
which accomplished for BOC what '"Stairway to Heaven"
and "Dream On" did for two other heavy metal bands,
Led Zeppelin and Arrowsmith.
Metal stars
Led ZeppeliniVesence-Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and
associates turn in another stellar performance in the mad
man tradition one has come to expect from these leaders
of heavy metal music,
Even though Presence was the usual Zeppelin perfor
mance, the album received little airplay even in the FM
markets which are usually predisposed to the four English
heavy rockers. Could it be that heavy metd is wearing
thin? .
SupertrampQfcfr What Ch'sftf-This album is a clear
out personal favorite and a good candidate for the album
that is least likely to appear on other best of 76
compilations. '
The Supertramp sound is dominated by extremes be
tween quiet acoustic passages only to be punctured by
rousing, dynamic bursts from the entire band,
Instrumentally and lyrically solid, the band's single
weakness is their frustrating inability to sell records.
Hopefully their day will come.
