  1. before Continuum i would have thrown up at the mention of his name, but its not a bad record atall apart from the hendrix cover, thats pretty awful his Abbey Road Session impressed me, great band, seems like a nice guy too
  2. but will i know when its knackered?, sound wise and will it ruin my records
  3. i've only had my own turntable about 2 years and havnt changed one yet apparently you should change them every 200-300 hours of play but i dunno how long that is really since i dont time how long i use it i dont wanna leave it too long incase i damage my records
  4. was looking through the record collectors price guide at work today and his first record goes for around 90 quid and the second not alot less which explains why dont see a whole bunch of them about the first one features his version of Dont Think Twice Its Alright which is in my opinion the best version ive heard of the tune, aswell as 2 other songs that are written around the same melody
  5. thats so cool reverand, get to speak to him much?? got solid air on right now, The Easy Blues man!...does he play a fierce acoustic guitar!
  6. try his first record 'London Conversation' if you like other singers from that time, Bert Jansch etc you'll dig it
  7. he should totally spell his name with a Y too JM is awesome provided you only listen to his early stuff and pretend he never worked with Phil Collins
  8. i dont usually enjoy computer music but they sure know how to write a hook
  9. best look away!! just uploaded my version of 'Go Easy', http://www.myspace.com/jackjosephmusic
  10. grateful dead - help on the way>slipknot beach boys - our prayer>cabinessence
  11. i dont think she ever really lost the knack for songwriting, i think its mostly the dated production that let down some of her later releases and i always felt Jaco Pastorius, talented as he may be kinda ruined the tunes of hers he played on with that naff bass sound that said i do still adore her, theres only one Joni Mitchell
  12. a brand new one and a better recorded, full version of 'the bear' which i posted the other week note, these were both done on cassette tape and converting them to digital can be a little hit and miss, the first tune is a little crackly at the beginning but clears up before the singing starts
  13. yeah i recorded the BBC4 sessions, watched it 3 or 4 times and gets better each time
  14. oh, you mean they overdubbed it?? i thought you meant the footage
  15. i wouldnt say 5 songs was most of the show
  16. Hmm, i definately prefer the brown album to big pink, although i do adore pink also maybe try Northern Lights, Southern Cross. its a quite different and a slicker production, if its the rawness of the early records you dont enjoy. The Last Waltz is just ridiculous, so tight but without sounding overworked or boring. stunning
  17. you know im ashamed to say this but ive never heard the Basement tapes, the bassist in our band always says he's gonna lend me it and forgets i might just buy it just curious, whos number one then Halcyon??
  18. the greatest band of all time right?? im giving stage fright a spin at the minute and i have feeling im gonna go through them all by this evening. everytime i listen to them i fall in love all over again, i forget how good they really are im guessing theres gotta be a handful of fans around these parts??
  19. my dad was/and still is a huge Neil Young fan, and at the time bought everything Crosby, Stills, Nash, Joni, or any Neil related artists records aswell but was never really into them like he was Neil i on the other hand am so managed to inherit alot of great LPs
  20. The Beach Boys stellar 1971 album 'Surfs Up', it upsets me that no one seems to care about The Beach Boys post-Pet Sounds. They made some truly awesome music around this time, Holland is great too but Carl really shines on this one you can now get it as a double CD paired with Sunflower, another underrated record Graham Nash - Songs For Beginners, another great 70s record stolen from my dad great to see so many people dig the Crosby record, i adore it too only have it on cd though which is a shame
  21. MOJOs Dylan Covered, was a pretty good one..thats where i heard Andrew Bird and John Martyns covers, both beautiful I dont have the means to convert the tracks from CD to Mp3 though I agree with Louie, about Baez being given a hard time...i have Joan Baez in concert part 2 and thats a good LP, although it use to belong to my Grandma and this may be half of reason im so fond of it The Cardinals do what sounds like a great version of Isis, if only there was a good qaulity audio of it kicking about
  22. I suppose Pat and John have got their harmonies down pretty tight, so why add another voice these songs sound really good though, cheers for posting this
  23. good call nowhere man, Andrew Birds Oh Sister is stunning, i think i like it more then the original
