Tim Friedmann's 70's Rock Conversations

This week, Frankie and I continue our look at the "Next 14 Best Albums," with the double-album set from Stevie Wonder --The Grammy Award Winner for Best Album-- "Songs in the Key of Life." There are so many great songs from this album--from "Another Star" to "Isn't She Lovely" and many, many more! Next week, it'll be Steely Dan's "Aja;" and remember--our "BIG 6th Anniversary Show" is just 2 weeks away!!

This week--Frankie and bring you another in our series of "The Next 14"...it's from 1976 "Frampton Comes Alive." Peter Frampton was a little-known solo artist at the time, except for a very strong following in San Francisco and New York (and maybe Cleveland), but he broke loose with this terrific live album in '76. Keep in mind, our "BIG 6th Anniversary Show" is coming up in just a few weeks!!

This week, Frankie and I continue our look (in no particular order!) at the "Next 14" Top Albums of All-Time. Thanks to you-our wonderful listeners for helping us put this Next list together! In the spotlight--"Tapestry" by the legendary Carole King. This album spent nearly the entire decade on the Billboard Album Charts, and solidified the new era of female singer/songwriters in the 70s. Enjoy!!

Episode 1 of our new Season 17 begins with a look at the "Next 14 Best Albums of All-Time." Every one of these LP's could've easily placed in the "Top 14," so we wanted to give a nice solid look at the "Next 14"! This week, it's the final (and I mean final) one from the Police--"Synchronicity" released in 1983. Great singles; and a Great Album. Enjoy!

We've finally made it! And thanks to YOU--our great listeners!...We have reached our #1 Best Album of All-Time!! This week, we conclude our countdown with the 1971 album, "IV" by Led Zeppelin!! It has been called by other names/symbols over the years, but referred to the most now as just plain "IV." Thank you so much for helping Frankie and me put this list together! Next week, we'll begin to take a look at our "Next 14 Best Albums."

The Beatles return to our countdown of the "14 Top Albums of All-Time" this week; with their final album (and one that we featured previously)--"Abbey Road." Our listeners have done a terrific job of putting our Top 14 in place...and this leaves just the #1!! What will it be?? If you don't know already from this past summer--find out next week!

We're getting down to the wire now with our "Best Albums of All-Time"!! This week, it's "Who's Next." The great album released in 1971 features some of the best rockers ever! And next week, Frank & I divulge the #2 Album--the one you voted on. Enjoy!

This week--we're getting closer to the top of "Best 14 Albums of All-Time!!"...And it is the 1971 album by the Stones--"Sticky Fingers." Taken from the best year in Rock according to our Rock Expert, Frank Aust. Next week, we'll be getting down to the wire, with just 3 great albums left. Enjoy!!

This week! It's getting down to the wire!! Our #5 Album of All-Time--"Born to Run" by Bruce Springsteen. This breakout album by The Boss from 1975 kicked his career into superstardom. The "Best 14" is based on our fan vote; and you're doing a tremendous job! Enjoy the Top 5.

This week: Frankie and I continue our countdown of the "Top 14 Albums of All-Time," as voted by you! We're up to #6 now, and it's the 2-record set by Elton John, "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." We'll discuss the tracks on this wonderful album, and also tell you why the song "Harmony" was not released as a single, as maybe it should've been...
