I have never heard a single note of Made in Japan.  I know, I know :lol, but I am not a big live album guy, and considering I am not that big a Deep Purple fan, I never felt the need to go out of my way to hear any of it.

I am, in fact, such a big live album guy that one of my rules for my top 50 was to limit it to studio albums or the list would be half live albums.  :lol The version of Child In Time on Made In Japan is pretty much the definitive version as far as I am concerned.

Great song. Gillan's finest hour (well, few minutes).

Bingo.  The instrumental section is glorious as well.

By coincidence, the Made in Japan version shuffled onto my truck stereo yesterday while driving home from the office. I love it!

Ooo, ooo, oooo.
Ooo, ooo, oooo.
Ooo, ooo, ooo, oooo.

Aaa, aaa, aaah.
Aaa, aaa, aaah.
Aaa, aaa, aaa, aaaah.

WAAA, AAA, AAAH!
WAAA, AAA, AAAH!
WAAA, AAA, AAA, AAAAAH!

John Mellancamp - I Need a Lover

Really good tune! It is a shame he never really had any other hits that had the kind of extended instrumental coolness that this song has in the intro, but I guess once the 80s rolled around, short and concise became the thing, and considering he is someone who really benefited by MTV, it wasn't to his advantage to have songs with long intros and whatnot.  But this is a damn good song; a definite classic.

The funny thing is, I Need A Lover isn't really all that long-it's five minutes and thirty six seconds long, but like I mentioned ages ago in the MTV thread, this song does the neat trick of being less than six minutes long and sounding a HELL of a lot longer. Mainly pulls that off because the intro is a large percentage of the song-two minutes and twenty nine seconds, according to my play of it just now on iTunes. Of course, it likely wouldn't have been a MTV hit even as an edit because by then everyone knew the Pat Benatar version, but it's a kick ass song, especially the intro.  :metal

George Thorogood - Who Do You Love?

I am not a fan of this guy at all, but if there is one song by him I can sort of tolerate, it is this one.

Move It On Over is the only Thorogood song that I really like.

In High-school I new a guy who called the band, "George Thoroughmud and the Underwear Re-soilers." Always cracked me up.

Speaking of artists I have never liked...

Lou Reed - Walk on the Wild Side

I dislike this song.  A lot.  But sadly, classic rock radio played the crap out of it back in the day.  Ick.

Okay, with that being over with :lol....

Robert Palmer - Bad Case of Loving You

Solid rock song.  One I always heard and always thought was pretty enjoyable, but I can't say it is one I have ever given much thought to outside of when I am actually listening to it.

It was his biggest hit before the 80s albums, and still gets played around here, actually. So for once I can come to Kev's rescue on a classic rock song not played all over the country!  :lol

Van Halen - Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love

This has long been my favorite song from the VH debut album and one of my favorite VH songs ever.  When I hear that legendary guitar intro, I am still always sucked in right away, and the song is staying on till the end.

Probably my favorite VH eva for the reason you mention. I had a girlfriend in college who would cross her eyes just during the note that's emphasized during the beginning riff. Then she would go all weak-kneed as if she was 'gasming. It was her way of expressing pleasure at the guitar tone...I guess. Or she was thinking of Roth's chest hair, I never really found out.

I'm not sure I can pick a favourite for my favourite song from the album, since it's one of the best hard rock albums of all time, but this song is as good as any. :tup Gotta love that iconic intro. That tone was unbeatable.
