So much better than the copy by the Ventures....so much more detail. 

This is also the song I mentally hear during the fast mountain drives in the movie "Thunder Road" with Robert Mitchum ....not the famos one were he is killed..but the earlier ones.

Such good suggestions.  A lot of the individual songs I already have in various playlists.  Some good albums I either did not know or had forgotten.  Many I had in high school.

My music tastes have changed somewhat since then.  For instance, I was the first of my friends to discover The Smiths when in college.  Tried listening to a couple of their CDs 15 years or so ago, and was appalled at myself for ever liking that.  "Shut up, you whiny son of a bitch!" I yelled as I ejected the CD (I may be paraphrasing).  Anyway, since they were all original releases, and some of them were out of print and/or limited releases, I was able to sell them all on ebay for a lot more than I paid for them in the '80s.

P.S.  I prefer "Alone Again" and "Too Hot to Handle" from UFO.

I never knew The Chantays were ever recorded outside of a studio. They did a good job. Some bands suck live.

I wish that I hadn't ruined a lot of good vinyl records in the mid to late 60s with an inexpensive Sears "stereo" when I was in college... by the time I enlisted in 1970, and toured a lot of Japanese audio shops did I figure out what a good turn table and audio cartridge really was... names like Maxell and TDK tape were unknown to me, but I did copy a lot of free music....unfortunately no one repairs a Sansui Eight amp, Dual turntable, or TEAC 4010 tape deck  any more... :(

Since I got a decent stereo system in the early '80s I've used TDK SA cassette tapes exclusively, with one exception. I have a single Maxell UD90 "normal" tape that I think I got from one of my roommates when I was stationed in Germany. I copied 3 songs each off single LPs of my roommates, all by different groups, starting with the 3 songs on Wish You Were Here that weren't parts I-IX of Shine On You Crazy Diamond.

The TDK Super Avilyn cobalt-adsorbed "chrome equivalent" Type II particle is better than the chromium dioxide used on "chrome" Type II tapes. And TDK SA tapes must be really good. They were used to align the heads of many different brands of cassette decks at the factories that built them. I bought mostly SA90 tapes because one LP nearly always fits on each side of a 90 minute tape. When CDs first came out they were the same length as the albums they came from, so one CD fit on each side of a 90 minute tape most of the time.

Before I had a CD player of my own I borrowed my younger brother's CD player and CDs. I copied a dozen of his CDs onto SA90 tapes in Limited Edition cases, 2 Jeff Beck, 6 Led Zeppelin, and 4 Pink Floyd, all recorded in Dolby C. The tapes sound just as good to me as the original CDs. I have one SA100 tape with Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds on it. Since  the double album is about 95 minutes long it wouldn't fit on an SA90 tape. I've since bought the 2 CD version. Ulla!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Wayne%27s_Musical_Version_of_The_War_of_the_Worlds

I have some SA90 blank tapes left and a few newer TDK CDpower 110 blank tapes. I just saw 5 "vintage" regular style SA90s like mine listed for $50 on ebay. The newer CDpower 110s are averaging about 5 bucks each. I still have a couple of SA90 Limited Edition tapes in the original shrink wrap. A single one is listed on ebay for $12.99, and 4 used tapes are $49.99! They came in a unique one-piece clam-shell case.

Jumbo, I am looking at the Pipeline YouTube by the Chantays you and it shows a "formal" looking  format for the visual of the link....and the quality if great.

Did you tell us where to find others from that source and I missed it?  In either case, can you point me to the source.  Thanks...

Don't forget Dire Straits, Bad Company, Foreigner, and Iron Maiden. The duel guitar attack of Dave Murray and Adrian Smith are fantastic.

Uh. What?

I just looked it up on YouTube and put the letters "hq" after it. Like this, "chantays pipeline hq". A lot of videos have high quality versions of songs and videos. Some of them are remastered versions. But sometimes people post crappy quality and label it HQ. In that case I search the same thing without the "hq" and see what turns up. A lot of times I look online to see what album the song was on and find most of them on Wikipedia. Once I find what I'm looking for on YouTube I start the video and read Wikipedia while it plays. Sometimes if you look who posted the video it will say something like The Chantays - Topic or Blue Öyster Cult - Topic. I never even looked for that, but if you click on it, it goes to their page with more videos.

The best links are usually the ones with a picture of the album cover on the left with the name of the song, group, and album next to it. Like these 2 from Blue Oyster Cult. I think that's what you were talking about. The first one is a single from their first album from 1972. The second one is a #1 Mainstream Rock hit single from one of their Gold records that came out in 1981. I'm going with a theme for these two. Let me know if I helped or not.
