you ever seen a ghost?

Nick Drake. i had the song "Pink Moon" on my computer in college and earlier this year downloaded and subsequently bought the three proper albums one by one. had i known, i would have just bought that damn box set...it's gorgeous! -justin

and not even really worthwhile b/c the song is already on their last album, so it isn't even a rarity. -justin

just listened again for the first time in a couple of months. such a beautiful record. i'd kinda worn it out earlier in the year. -justin

so excited! i've heard two of the tracks as live versions. love "Blood Bank," but not too find of "Babys." -justin

>but it can be crazy-making to have multiple threads on one topic. it can also be crazy-making to attempt to parse a 79-page thread looking for a link or some information. -justin

yeah, i'm finally getting around to Dear Science, and digging on it. -justin

trust me, i have listened to it plenty. not only was i listening to .mp3s of the live songs months before the album came out, i even saw them in concert in September (for the second time...first time was in '05). i just don't like the album. i've been an MMJ fan for years and prefer pretty much everything else they've done to EU. massive, crushing disappointment with the exception of the final two tracks. -justin

what if i started a thread that said "i like Wilco?" could that be a new thread or would someone post a response with links to every other thread ever created? -justin

after seven years of living with it and eight years of being a massive Dylan fan, "Love & Theft" eventually became (and probably will stay) my favorite Dylan record. -justin

>(hey do you know GregRVA?? you both live in Richmond....) i've PMed with him some, but we haven't met up yet! -justin

i always liked these lines from the same song: the last thing i remembered before i stripped and kneeled was a trainload of fools bore down in magnetic field it specifies the apocalypse the song promises as something nuclear. also, there is a story he would tell in '78 before he would play this song...something about a man he met on a train with burning eyes...really creepy. -justin

glad you had a good time. one simple fact: people that don't like modern-day Dylan (albums, live, etc.) don't get it. it being Dylan, music, life, whatever. :-) -justin

ones that have stuck in my head recently: Ain't nothin' left here partner, just the dust of a plague that has left this whole town afraid From now on, this'll be where you're from Let the dead bury the dead. Your time will come Let hot iron blow as he raised the shade On the rising curve Where the ways of nature will test every nerve In the valley of the giants where the stars and stripes explode The peaches they were sweet and the milk and honey flowed You've wasted all your power You threw out the Christmas pie Now you're withering like a flower You'll play the fool and die Should

Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes Fleet Foxes - Sun Giant [EP] Beck - Modern Guilt Bob Dylan - The Bootleg Series, Vol. 8: Tell Tale Signs Department Of Eagles - In Ear Park massive disappointment: My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges still looking forward to: Kanye West - 808s and Heartbreak Neil Young - Live at Sugar Mountain ...and, i don't care what anybody says, this was a 2007 release: Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago -justin

>Thanks Jules. I must have skimmed over that part. someone said they played "Christ For President" as well. -justin

>I love the inclusion of "Wilco" into the lyrics. i hope this isn't in the final song. i'd imagine it is a placeholder line anyway, but i guess we'll see. -justin

>People are always holding up Radiohead as this prototype of genius because they push the limits. They also sound tone deaf w/o melody half the time to my ears. i agreed with you all the way up until this point. -justin

or because it was debuted on the Colbert Report. some of you guys take things way too damn literal. -justin

Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer? Wilco - "Glad It's Over" -justin

seemed pretty well fleshed out, so i'm guessing the Colbert and Wilco parts of the song were just inserted... great stuff though! -justin

some Radiohead stuff has great strings. -justin

in this thread as well, on the first page. -justin

people tend to like the outtake version "New Danville Girl" a lot more. it's been a long time since i've heard it and all my bootlegs are packed away, so it would be tough for me to say... -justin

i think "You And I" was Tweedy solo. anyone have an .mp3 of that one? -justin

>Maybe Slow Train Coming there are some god tracks on that but its still subpar. was that a typo or a clever joke? :-) -justin
