josie Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Wondering the same thing myself It's basically the off season and people aren't slicing each other apart (unless you count the Beatles boy band kerfuffles). I'm good with it. Nothing wrong with music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMWR100RT Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 I'm old. 1. London Calling (least favorite song is "London Calling") 2. My aim is true -Elvis Costello 3. CCR's greatest hits (guilty pleasure. Great band, Great songwriting) 4. Who's next or Quadraphenia 5. Talking Heads - Remain in Light.

Sabel79 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Ooh, My Aim is true... First Elvis Costello drop. To be honest, Imperial Bedroom might be a better overall EC record (Town Cryer might just be the greatest single song ever) but a respectable choice nonetheless.

woods-racer Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 LOL I think I probably look more like venue management. Very short hair (or what's left of it anyway), probably wearing a polo shirt., dad shorts at Summer shows. My wife says I look like a retired cop, so probably not roadie. I get the same thing! I wish I had enough hair on my head now to grow some roadie locks, whether or not I would grow it that long is another question. I also dress appropriately for the venue and my age group. It was my parents that me this way. And always clean underwear, because you never know when you're going to be in an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 If I needed an assortment of 5 to cover various moods... 1. Revolver - Beatles 2. Mothership Connection - Parliament 3. The Empire Strikes Back (1997 Special Edition) - John Williams & The London Symphony Orchestra 4. Sound of Silver - LCD Soundsystem 5. Wholeness and Separation - Halou And if it were permissible to add compilations and live albums I could expand out to 10: 6. The Very Best of The Meters 7. The Name of This Band is Talking Heads (wins out over Stop Making Sense because of sheer quantity and SMS goes on the movies list) 8. 87’ Laments (Live Paris-Bercy) - Prince 9. Living in Clip - Ani DiFranco 10. Keepin’ Dah Funk Alive 4-1995 - Bootsy Collins As it turns out, I'd be a dancing Ebriate on my deserted island. Highway 61 Revisited, Lola vs. Powerman and the Moneygoround Part One, and The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars all narrowly missed the cut.

I considered it too, as well as "Take Five" as an option for those days on the desert island requiring jazz... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Some were asking for recommendations, I'm not sure whether to put this here or in the music thread. But, if you're a Doors fan, Spotify has a special from 1979(?) where Jim Ladd interviews all the band members about their time with the Doors, interviews with other musicians about their stories and some other real candid stuff. Jim Ladd used to do that kind of stuff back in the day and this one with The Doors was the only four parter because it's that in depth. (It's split into 16 parts on Spotify (between 8-15 minutes each)). It's a fantastic special and well worth the time. https://open.spotify.com/user/jjfiveoh/playlist/2PiQs0q817n2h3SmBPFJCH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) Heard this one about a week ago and it's completely stuck in my head. Brand new band and a brand new song. This feels like it's straight out of 1988. If you like the more synth style Police songs, you'll dig this.

darksabre Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Thanks for sharing that! If I could buy stock in The Regrettes, I would do so. Love the name too. But they need a chick drummer too. Just to complete the overall effect. Why can't I see the vid D4rk posted on my laptop? Huh. Refresh the screen and there it is. That bass player.... :wub: Oddly enough, they just announced this morning they'll be at the Tralf on June 24th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
