Some big, hairy rocking was had this week with the James Gang; we played their debut 'Yer Album' from beginning to end to celebrate the 40th anniversary of it's release. What a power trio!

For this week's Classic Rock Album special guest TVS was flying solo, and celebrated the 40th anniversary of the beyond ground-breaking LP King Crimson's 'In the Court of the Crimson King' by playing it from beginning to end to kick off the Show. This album was a game changer; for many it's the point at which Progressive Rock really took a form from the work laid down by the Beatles and their contemporaries. How about that screaming face? I wonder how many people made that face when they first encountered this brain melting LP?
