I love the music of Steamroller.

The Monkees: Holiday Party



Rhino CD

Recorded in 2018 (with the exception of one Davey Jones vocal that was done in 1990 and recorded around for this album.)

This CD is proof that some aging rockers can return and put out some nice stuff and others should just enjoy their retirement. This CD is the later. (Although Mickey Dolenz has put out some nice work recently, this is not in that category.)

Luckily I found this in the library and did not have to lay out any cash for it.  :roll:

Peter Frampton Band: All Blues



Universal CD

I always just thought of Perter Frampton as a 70s pop artists. But when I saw this one in the library, which was just released a few months ago,  I figured it was just another aging rocker trying to squeeze a few bucks out of anther album. But it cost me nothing to find out so I said to myself "What the heck, I'll give it a shot."

Well I have to tell you, much to my surprise, Frampton as got some serious Blues chops.

A very enjoyable album.  :thumb:
