I would like to start a new weekly assignment & how this will work is as follows. Every Thursday(as long as this old brain doesn't give out & I forget) I will come up with a different Classic Rock Album. I will also list all the songs on that album. Your challenge is to take, either the album title or any of the song titles, & interpret it with a photo. This gives everyone a bunch of different options every week. Please post the title you are using along with the picture. So, for this week & to get the ball rolling I choose the Edgar Winter Group & the album "They Only Come Out at Night". I felt this album was appropriate for post-halloween.:D

I forgot to give my interpretation! I'll be using the album title.
They only come out at night.

Cool idea! Sounds fun!
Here is:
"Rock 'N' Roll Boogie Woogie Blues"
The Beautiful Bobby Blackmon. The title says it all about his live performances. More info on the artist here (http://www.myspace.com/beautifulbobbyblackmon)

This is a great idea for a regular series. I'll go for Autumn (at this time of year, you might get a number of those).

Does anyone have (legal) links where people can listen to samples of these tracks?

Good question! I did find this site that gives samples that are just under 2 mins. in length. When I clicked on a song, a box pops up asking to open in Windows media player classic. Which, on my windows machine is not a problem. If you can get it to work, I suggest you listen to "We all had a really good time". One of my all-time favorites.

Nice start, by the way, to what I hope everyone will enjoy.

Amazon has samples of the majority of the tracks they sell via their new MP3 download service (i.e. Itunes type service)

I choose "We all had a real good time"

It's actually my sister's, but it's really sad that we've gotten this far without that song being used.

Well, I have to get as much use out of the picture as possible, right? I would say this is "They only come out at night"

Going to have to go with the Autumn as well. Only one I have a picture that fits actually. But it is funny that this has come about. Reading, music, pictures...that is me. I often think in song titles, seems like there is always one appropriate to any situation. Anyway this picture is my backyard and every time I look at it I immediately start singing "...looking out my backdoor..." (CCR) Not the song from your album, but it will fit with your album as well. So I had to share.

Uhhh..... I knew some other dude who did a lot of acid, and loved to listen to that song.
This is the best pic I could find to go along with it. NOT MY SHOT.

This was cropped on flickr because I couldn't find my edited version of it. I went with the easy one as well. (love this idea for challenges!) So I am starting at the first one.
