Though I do think that Tiny Music is a great album personally, it at least has some real nice songs
Definitely an underrated album.

Agree to disagree.
See, my double dose is already working. No insults or anger. Just an opinion. :wave:
Yo Chula repping the 70s, go ABBA, go Frampton, am I right?

The first half of the 70s were awesome. After that cocaine and payola took over. ABBA, Frampton Comes Alive, Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle, Fleetwood Mac's Rumors, Billy Joel's The Stranger, Cheap Trick Live in Budakkon, The Eagles Hotel California just took over the airwaves of FM radio because the the stations were being paid to play them non-stop. Sames goes for a lot of the disco and new wave of the day.
Totally sucked. Back in Methuen, MA at that time if you listened to any of the rock FM stations it was guaranteed you'd hear songs from all of these artists within the hour.
I tuned out once once songs like this began being played endlessly.
Not sure how much coke it took to make this a hit but I'm pretty sure we would have all OD'd. Seriously, you simply could not go an hour listening to the radio in 1978-79 without hearing this at least twice.

This came as a shock to me. Definitely a big blow to my childhood. RIP.

I don't know man. I think almost all of that music is pretty good.

Rumours is far better than any single studio album by Zep.
