  1. i actually don't mind CDs if that's what you guys want to do just prefer sendspace if we do sendspace, we can all share our links
  2. 1. Lowden11 2. DAngerer09 (CD prefered) 3. Hardwood Floor (come on, let's sendspace ... i don't have time to pack up a CD and go to the post office!!)
  3. count me in sendspace is a beautiful thing
  4. my favorites are Ten Years After, Based on Happy Times, Places that Are Gone, Isolation Party, Crashing the Ether, In the Light Bright (the new one), Songs from the Film and The Merry-go-Round Broke Down all brilliant
  5. Tommy is an all-time great. As brilliant as he is as a songwriter, he's just as good a guitar player. And a great singer. And just phenomenal live. If you like edgy, crunchy melodic guitar pop jammed with hooks, check out Tommy. All-time top-10 artist for me.
  6. interesting and very cool to hear this usually seems to take people more than a few weeks to really grasp FaCE ... it's such a dense record but i agree ... as good as GBV's best a phenomenal record
  7. all would probably make my list too, brian From a Compound Eye might be at the top of the list (although Half Smiles would be way up there too) FaCE is by far bob's best post-gbv record
  8. i was in London and read a review in Melody Maker of the new Mock Turtles record (the one with Can you Dig it). I had never heard of them, but it sounded right up my alley -- melodic guitar pop with tons of harmonies and hooks, etc. So i walked over to the HMV store and grabbed a copy. As I was waiting in line, I heard another band that sounded great -- very hooky, lots of guitars, great melodies. Got to the front of the line and asked the dude what it was. "That's the new Mock Turtles." I still love that record
  9. i made the mistake of picking up one of their records years back found it impossibly dull not for me
  10. for me, it's 1) Genesis, 2) Yes, 3) ELP, 4) Starcastle, 5) Nektar but i don't expect many people here to agree with me other than the very early stuff - court of the crimson king, starless, red - just not interested in king crimson. their later stuff does nothing for me
  11. I was raised on this stuff. Saw Yes about 20 times, Genesis 15 times, ELP 10 or 12 times, etc. BeBop Deluxe, Gentle Giant, King Crimson, Nektar, etc. The Genesis records especially hold up incredibly well, same with some Yes stuff. I don't listen all that often but when I do i'm always surprised how much I still dig this stuff
  12. i heard california stars at starbucks today made me sad
  13. anybody catch the band on Letterman last night? kind of a lifeless sugar magnolia ... that ended at the fake ending, before the whole sunshine daydream bit hate seeing them reduced to being so mundane ... three-minute pop song and out of there, but i guess that's all you can ask for on network TV
  14. wow, good to hear somebody else say this ... I've always felt this way but haven't heard anybody else admit it it's like you're just supposed to foam at the mouth over his solo stuff, no questions asked it's overrated
  15. saw the pogues last year & was an all-time top-20 show for me teeth or no teeth when they're on, few are better
  16. Box Full of Letters Nothing'severgonnastand, etc. Company in my Back
  17. I'm going to celebrate this thread by listening to Sept. 20, 1970, acoustic set on the way to work tomorrow
  18. hey linzer ... just be careful because the last northbound R2 leaves wilmington at 10:48 pm septa R2 sked: http://septa.org/service/sched/pdfs/R2MHW.pdf no clue when the show will start/end, but keep that in mind there is also an 11:36 amtrak ... looks like that's the last north-bound train of the night
