Y, your enthusiasm is contagious. Between the recent Wilco webcasts, REM and now MMJ I feel like I've been on tour the last month and I never left my living room.

I'm not dancing, but I am having a cold Red Hook and rocking the house! Very much enjoying this.

I've always loved the "Fighting" LP. "Spirit Slips Away" gets me every time.

Last night R.E.M., and now this! Good thing I'm a night owl!

I'm in!

Many thanks!

I did not know. Linky?

That's a damn fine list there Crow. The only thing missing is the absence of any prog (imho, of course).

Yeah, Bruno was on CNN tonight and although he said this whole thing didn't make him feel good it appeared to me that he could barely contain his joy. Sweet revenge indeed.

I don't have the heart to go back through this thread, but one of the things I find truly disgusting is Spitzer dragging his old lady out with him for these press conferences. That can only compound the poor woman's humiliation imo. What would be just is to have him giving his sorry speech with a split screen of his wife leaving the courthouse with a team of lawyers, holding up divorce proceeding papers. Fuck the 'stand by your man' philosophy.

Nice call cryptique. We played that game more than probably any other when I was a ute. Many tourneys and such.

I was always a huge fan of the Chicago debut. Terry Kath nearly out Claps Clapton on that. The solos on Poem 58 and Liberation are killers.

I wanted to single this one out jmac just for the fun, wonderful live record I think it is. Everyone should have a copy of this in their home.

I know! Why can't we all just agree that HWY 61 is the best studio and Happy Trails is the best live?

Hell yeah. Him and Wes two of are Indy's main contributors to jazz.

Yes. If I had to rank LPs it would make my top 5. I got that record as a little kid (age 6/7) and there has never been a time when I didn't listen to it. It still kills me every time: Kieth's cold-steel solo in "Sympathy", the strange psychedelic-folk of "Jigsaw", the positively salacious "Stray Cat", the moonshine-fueled "Factory Girl", etc etc. I think it's just about a perfect record.

I don't know if you thought that was funny at the time, but I just got a good chuckle right now.

I'm totally gonna go to that place someday. Perhaps you could show me around.

There's not a song on that record that I dislike.

Not to mention that none of the four are from America. The birthplace of rock and roll.

Mr. SkyKev would not be pleased. I'm sort of surprised too, although I'm a bigger Stones fan.

The Stones had a jump on The Who with Beggar's Banquet - I'm in the minority here but I think Beggar's is my favorite album of theirs. If The Who would have completed the "commercial" aspect of Sells Out for both sides then they would possibly have the jump. But for the most part they were still a singles band (imo) when The Stones were starting to go LP in their thinking. I know that doesn't answer the question but I'll go with this - '68-'72: advantage Stones ; '69-'74: advantage Who.

OK, here goes (I'll do rock only): Allman Bros. Bob Dylan Clash Dire Straits Emerson, Lake and Palmer Fixx Grateful Dead Humble Pie Ian Hunter Jimi Hendrix King Crimson Led Zeppelin Moody Blues New Riders of the Purple Sage Ozomatli Pink Floyd Quicksilver Messenger Service Rush Santana Traffic Uncle Tupelo Velvet Underground Who X Yes Zappa, Frank (sorry, had to get him in there ) That was tough on a few letters - some could have been easily substituted. Great idea for a thread Chompsky. EDIT: I did first name (as the original poster did) first. Sorry for the confusion.

Exactly. Case in point - Bittersweet Motel or The GD Movie (I know, that's shooting fish in a barrel ).
