The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life. I thought I’d never heard this album before until I realized it’s the one with the Ring of Fire, which I’ve definitely heard before. Maybe one of my college friends had it.
Great release. Feels like they hit it off that summer as a band. They were hot at the Fillmore in February but lets face it, the Dead ate them for breakfast, drank some cool aid for lunch and smoked them at midnight.
Just threw on the DVD disc of the below set. Haven't watch it in a long while. Great ensemble. All compositions by Tim Berne Disc One: Live in the Middle of Somewhere "Scrap Metal" - 11:48 "Yes, Dear" - 21:13 "Mr. Johnson" - 25:42 Disc Two (DVD): Eyenoises... The Paris Movie 1994 "Eyecontact" - 51:20 Disc Three: Live At The Children Of The Corn Festival 1997 "Sense and Sinsemilla" - 13:41 "Screwgun" - 11:25 "Byram's World" - 15:51 "Yes, Dear" - 19:49 "Howmuch Longer" - 12:05 Tim Berne - alto saxophone Chris Speed - tenor saxophone Michael Formanek - contrabass Jim Black - drums Marc Ducret - guitar (Disc Two (DVD) only)
Did some low sound quality utoobe listening earlier today at work and most all of it was from the Black Crowes. When they reformed in 2005 with that great line up from the golden years in the mid 90s they became a fabulous americana band, while still being that great hard rocking outfit. The brothers takes turns singing and of course it's obvious that Rich loves these songs, I'm just not sure if he wanted the crowes to go in that direction or if he did it to make Chris happy. Either way, I love it!
Rich's vocal mic is not on for the first part when he sings but this is a rare ocasion when the brothers plus extraordinare guitarist Marc Ford takes a verse each. This song has the classic Black Crowes sound.
Always loved the song. Nothing special about the musical take but I like that all three sings once again. As far as I know it's not something they did in the 90s. Rich didn't even sing that much back then or not at all, as far as I know... but I'm not a BC specialist
A couple weeks ago I made a massive "master chronology" playlist for Weezer. All albums, b-side, demos, etc in order. Got up to Maladroit. This morning I resumed it. Today's listening: Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Greatest Hits Sessions 2003" (a compilation of demos, the 2 new tracks from GH, and the 3 new songs from Live In Hyde Park.) - Stadium Arcadium, Disc 1 - Stadium Arcadium, Disc 2 Weezer - Maladroit - "Album 5 Demos, Vol. 1" - " Album 5 Demost, Vol. 2" - Make Believe - Red - Raditude - Hurley - Death To False Metal - Everything Will Be Alright In the End
Sitting in Starbucks right now banging along to some Judas Priest 1979.02.10 Tokyo, JP - Evening Show - "Tyranny Unleashed In the East" If you like live Priest, the two 1979.02.10 shows and the 1979.02.09 (Killer Employees Pension) are among the greatest audience recordings ever made. If you are familiar with the Led Zeppelin "Listen to This, Eddie!" release....yea they are at least that great. They sound like soundboards with audience mics added in rather than audience recordings. Close, FAT, and powerful!!! Easily the definitive Priest audience recordings for '78/'79 (the '78 Japanese recordings are worth seeking out too!) Plus the setlist is like a perfect greatest hits of the bad up through Killing Machine 10/10 rating from me, boys!!!
My wife and I used to watch Nip/Tick all the time. I went on a mission to find and download many of the songs used on that series. I probably have 80....they are dope...
