A '79 reissue to capitalize on the success of Leftoverture and Point of Know Return. The title track is a prog rock epic that the current version of band tackled live on tour this summer. Album of the Day Song for America - Kansas (1975) #RockSolidAlbumADay2026 #MusicSky #vinylrecords 289/365

Is there anyone else like 10cc? Maybe if Zappa and the Beach Boys teamed up.... I found this at Half Price Books. '73 pressing. It has never been reissued on vinyl in the US. Album of the Day 10cc (1973) #RockSolidAlbumADay2026 #MusicSky #vinylrecords 288/365

My original CD disappeared, so I just replaced it on vinyl. Still has a 'digital' sound, but that's ok. It suits the music. The two extended club mixes (Lemon and Numb) are very cool. Album of the Day Zooropa - U2 (1993) #RockSolidAlbumADay2026 #MusicSky #vinyl 272/365
