  1. Lots of great choices. I concur with these: bron-yr-aur - Zeppelin black mountain side - Zeppelin One of these days - pink floyd (untitled)- Andrew Bird Sparks - the Who Glad - Traffic Flying - Beatles Sandusky - UT Country Rag - Dylan
  2. I love covers. A few of my favorites: Dar Williams - Comfortably Numb Jack Johnson - Badfish Aimee Mann - One (the 3 dog night song; not U2) Jeffrey Gaines - In Your Eyes Damien Rice - Creep Neil Young - Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues Eddie Vedder - You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
  3. Surfing Daylight late Surfing Iced Latte Surfing
  4. Agreed. LOVE this album. The others were a little flat for me. But OEND is one of the best records of the '00's IMHO.
  5. EAC worked for me. Thanks for the tip. I'll give you a full report from my time at Gitmo for this infraction.
  6. Just came out a week or two ago. Gonna give EAC a shot. What a pain in the ass! (BTW, are the feds gonna bust down my doors two seconds after copying the CD?)
  7. I just picked up the Best of Radiohead CD. Brought it home to rip and stick onto my iPod (honestly, who lugs around CD wallets anymore?). But, alas, iTunes will not rip it. Apparently it is protected from such an act of piracy? This, of course, begs many questions: What's the deal? When did this happen? Only way to get mp3 is from downloads? Is there a "work-around" for this problem? Are record companies trying to piss me off? Is this the future of CDs? Am I forced to buy this again from iTunes? D'oh! Anyone have any thoughts on this?
  8. Cool. I just learned Android. A great song that sounds great solo acoustic, IMHO. Here is my cover. Please forgive the bad singing. Its just me and a guitar. My Winding Wheel
  9. Thanks! I always felt mine was a little lacking, but my ear is very poor. Nice job. Definitly a five monkey song...
  10. Here is how I play it (based on the Sunken Treasure solo performance): One By One - Jeff solo (ST: Live PNW) Std Tuning / Capo 5 Play progression with pulloffs on b string like this: e|-0----0----0--0----| b|-3p0--1p0--0--1p0--| g|-0----2----0--0----| d|-0----3----2--2----| a|-2----3----2--3----| e|-3----1----0-------| Intro: G F Em C (x4) G F Em C One by one the teardrops fall as i write you G F Em C One by one my words come falling on the page G F Em C One by one my dreams are fading in the twilight G F Em C One by one my sc
  11. Yeah, I hear it now. Just don't like it. I like the Open D version better. Gonna try that one out now.
  12. Just tried this. My guitar sounded terrible in that tuning - not like Jeff's at all; much too low and rumbly. Are you sure that is correct tuning? Would it work another way, say, tuning to open G then capo I? Thoughts?
  13. I have not tried it, but I know there are a few Pink Floyd tunes that utilize it (if memory serves). For your action drifting high, maybe it is time for a new setup? Check neck relieif, saddle/nut height, or worse.
  14. I have to admit that most of my (current) favorite bands are from listening to XM Radio (including Wilco). A great way to expand your horizons.
  15. Awesome. Thanks alot for this. Can't wait to try this out!
  16. For 1970's (other than the brilliant Blood on the Tracks), Desire is an outstanding LP. Try to find the live Rolling Thuder CD set, as well. Great document of that time.
  17. Gas prices are so irritating. Never thought I'd be happy driving a Corrola
  18. My dad was cleaning out the garage and found a big box of cards I collected during the early 1980s. I have no idea what is in there. I guess I gotta look and see if I am sitting on a goldmine. Is there any easy (say, online) way of assessing value? or do I have to get a book?
  19. This is not the IATTBYH version, but it is how I play it solo: Poor Places by Wilco Capo on the 3rd fret. Verse: (Hold each for a 2 count) G D Em C A7 A7 C C It's my fathers' voice dreaming of sailors sailin' off in the mornin' G D Em C A7 A7 C C For the air-conditioned rooms at the top of the stairs G D Em C A7 A7 C C His jaw's been broken, his bandage is wrapped too tight G D Em C A7 A7 C C His fangs have been pulled and I really wanna see you tonight G D Em C A7 A7 C C There's bourbon on the breath of th
  20. Isn't that based upon the book "A Prayer for Owen Meaney"? I never saw the movie, but the book is one of the best novels of the 20th century, IMHO.
  21. I rarely cry at movies. But I saw one recently that choked me up - am I cannot really explain it. The movie: Lars and the Real Girl. No spoliers, but the ending got to me. Just too darn sweet!
  22. Change them all, why not? Although once when I was putting a fresh pair on I had one break. I'll be damend! So order a single from stringsandbeyond.com
