i haven't bought it yet. going to get it on vinyl.

the roots - how i got over.

 

Taking my first test drive of this one.

so freaking good! all i've listened to for 2 days.

Oh I prefer Marc Ford as well, but not to the point where I won't give anything post Marc a chance.

yes, very true. i just love the robinson bros. great writing duo.

well, i can't really disagree w/ that. as great as luther is, marc's playing fits the band so much more.

A lot of people seem to hate it - the so-called super fans, that is. I have read many posts about how people hate the fact that they became a "country band". I find that sort of odd.

i learned a long time ago to never go to the black crowes message board. the 'super fans' hate anything post southern harmony. annoying.

Loving this!

 

yeah, that's a great album!

holy shit. the end to my morning song is frickin awesome. my god.

I like the songs that Rich sings lead on the Cabin Fever DVD/CD, though those are the only songs I heard him sing lead on, I think.

his voice has definitely gotten better/more confident but the female backup singers are such a part of the crowes sound.

would much rather hear rich sing.

this has to be the first time those words were ever said, no? i love the back up singers.

i think this album's fantastic. still not all the way through it.

yeah, i don't really like townes either. agree it seems cold.

croweology is pretty damn good. share the ride is quite odd htough. sounds like a drum machine.

sounds damn good so far.

i think any dylan fan must watch it at least once.

i suggest at least watching the first 9 minutes of it:

Band of the Hand

 

Hearts of Fire

Hearts of Fire might win the unintentionally funniest movie ever. i bought it on vhs yrs ago. dylan has some hysterical scenes in that movie.

edit:

apparently some nice fella has put the entire movie on youtube. broken up into clips.

i have 2 of his albums. listen to them once in a while but the song 'cry love' is one of my fave songs at hte moment.

i need to watch masked again. if you are a dylan nut, there are some crazy winks/nods to dylan lyrics through out the movie. it's a bizarre movie. nowhere near as bad as renaldo & clara. that is a pile of shit. too much cocaine back then.

Pat Garrett is great....particularly the director's cut.

 

Masked...not so much...

 

LouieB

yes, pat garrett is an awesome movie. maybe my fave western.

DMB doesn't even deserve to lick their sweaty jocks.

agreed (though i sitll enjoy old dmb)

the dead song los lobos covered here is awesome. odd choice.

The new Los Lobos is sounding really good to me today. I need to see this band.

 

Listen to it all on NPR:

this. wow. very good. classic example of a band i forget about, hear them, want to listen a lot but still forget to. even saw them live once & absolutely loved them (1996? opening for DMB)

crazy heart soundtrack. quite obsessed with it.

def agree that the mountain isn't his best. apparently i'm the only person who likes washington square. there are some great songs on there. i think it's far better than his last 2 though (especially the revolution. that album sucks minus one or two songs).

huh. i consider myself a pretty big earle fan and think washington square is very solid. so much better than the previous one. jerusalem really grew on me. those songs live are especially good.

my fave earle albums:

i feel alright

transcendental blues

washington square serenade

el corazon

guitar town (awesome album but the mix/production is horrible)

the live album: just an american boy

Steve has different eras. Early stuff, which gets good at copperhead road. The comeback after prison is realized with el corazon. Then the political records which are touch and go. Now it's kind of a mixture with a dose of love songs as a result of his hot wife. I thought the Townes tribute had too much of earle's slurring. El Corazon is where to start.

um, earle's always had love songs (though maybe not as lovey/dovey as now. i personally really like his love songs. i don't like most of his political stuff. seems like he tries to hard)

Mark's one of my favorite singers that I've never really given much of a listen to. His songs with QOTSA are obviously awesome, and his cover of Man In The Long Black Coat is perfect. But that's really all I've heard him do.

 

I saw this album leaked, so I'm checking it out. Really neat stuff. Might finally force me to give Mark's solo/Screaming Trees material a chance.

awesome! i had no clue they had a new one. the other isobell/lanegan stuff is great. his solo albums are fantastic as are screaming trees. he's def one of my fave singers. think i'm going to create a lanegan pandora station right now!

I saw them do that cover at a Dylan tribute show a couple of years ago when I'm Not There (the movie) came out. A religious experience, if I've ever had one. Literally blew my mind.

that video is awesome. star spangled banner-masters of war-machine gun. brilliant
