Sammy really made that band rock...
I think some other albums I really enjoy from way back (not necessarily my top 5)
Paranoid - Black Sabbath
Alligator Lady - Cameo
ZZTop - Eliminator
In 78 I saw Led Zeppelin at the Oakland Arena.... there were about 104,000 people there... we camped out over night waiting in line
Saw Ted Nugent in concert maybe 6 times..
When I was a kid, I made it a point to go to every single "Day on the Green"... It's easier to count the ones I missed. For $12 you got to see about 5 or 6 major bands... and it went from about 10am to 7 at night or so....
I missed the animal tour by Pink Floyd
missed Rolling Stones....
missed KISS
missed Queen
missed CCR
missed Bowie - Ziggy Stardust
missed DEVO
Missed Grateful Dead.... how'd I do that?

that's just the rock bands... been to several country councerts, a few "other" doc severenson for example...
some of these I'm not sure about... been along time and there was much partaking of certain substances....
so say a conservative number for the number of bands that play is 6 on a day on the green, and say I go to 6 concerts a year (conservative).... with 4 years of going before going in the military, you can easily see there were hundreds of bands. I continued going as I could in georgia and germany.... left the military, and it started petering out some.... then several years ago I started going to concerts again.... minus the partaking of certain chemical substances
(I have too much time on my hands here)
