Of course, one of the many reasons why I love this so much. They have included a version of "Let It Bleed" on their latest Betty live release (which was not released on cd format, by the way ).
Such a great band, bzfgt. I'm currently playing "Wave Goodbye" by Ty Segall Band off of Slaughterhouse. It's in a mix of about 500-600 songs I've rated four or five in iTunes.
I have the Ditch Trilogy, but I've never done the Ditch Trilogy. I probably should. I was watching Live Rust on blu-ray the other night. I need to finish that.
listened to Live Rust last night. I need Time Fades Away to complete the Ditch Trilogy. I've never heard it
I've said this before, but I think this is the best Neil studio album and probably his best album period.
We might agree. Until the next NY record I listen to There are a few classics that I don't own such as Zuma, S/T and the aforementioned Time Fades Away so i will reserve my judgment until I hear especially 1 and 3.
Oh man, how about "A Sailor's Life" off of Unhalfbricking by Fairport Convention? It's like Celtic Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Zuma is very good, but there's no logical argument that it is as good as Harvest, in my opinion. It's just that the former is the home of "Cortez The Killer."
You know, those last Zepp remasters are pretty good. For me, just about as loud as they should be. Maybe they could be ever so slightly more quiet, but I'm not sure. I'm listening to "Friends" off of III. And then "Bang A Gong" by T.Rex comes on. I remember seeing this video during the early days of VH1, when it was just about exclusively "classic rock" videos. I was like, "No way, is that Elton John on keyboards?' I thought it was so cool he was performing in T.Rex even though I wasn't the biggest Elton fan. I became more of a fan much later in life. But I'm still not the biggest Elton fan. But he had a 4 0r five album run of pretty much unimpeachable material where even the lesser songs sound really good. This is all my opinion. I don't want to get digitally body slammed by any Elton superfans on here.
Easier to hear now than any time from the mid 1970s until a couple years or so ago, luckily. I bought a scratchy old LP of it in the late 1980s, but the vinyl reissue in my case was an upgrade and I was thrilled to be able to get a CD copy as well. It is not quite as good as Tonight’s the Night and On the Beach, but that’s a high bar because they are both among my favorite albums ever, but it is still excellent and something you need to hear and pick up. And listen to for hours and hours and hours and hours...
Unbelievably good. My favorite Fairport album, although the previous and next one aren’t too far behind.
It’s better than Harvest, IMHO. Seeing Neil and Crazy Horse play most of the songs on Zuma at Old Princeton Landing (150 people capacity) over four shows in 1996 was pretty much heaven on earth.
