Ray Davies (with Yo La Tengo) - Live, Off Broadway (2000) Stephen Malkmus - Stephen Malkmus Yo La Tengo - I Am Not Afraid Of You and I Will Beat Your Ass

I'm kinda obsessed with this song right now, too: "If You Can

Jonathan Richman - every time that I've seen him

Pretty much all of he stuff he did on Sun Records is amazing. The rest is hit and miss.

Yo La Tengo was like that for me: first time one of the best; second time one of the worst (maybe the worst).

Neil Young (Of course, I only saw him on the This Note's For You tour.)

The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man Jim Ford - Point Of No Return Roy Wood & Wizzard - Archive Series

It's just a snapshot of board tastes -- a quick hit. And the 9's at the top, are only because one person has rated them. As more people rate the record, higher or lower, the album will rise or drop in the charts. And, you can click through to see who the people are who rated each album and what their rating was for each. Gives a good idea of which albums you may like and a quick look as to who on the board you share tastes with.

The first time: The Blue Note, Columbia, MO (the old location behind the high school) Second time: The Vic, Chicago, IL

I saw UT twice: once pre-No Depression, and once after Anodyne was released. It was like 2 different bands. So, when did you see them? Which UT was it?

Brotherhood of Lizards - Lizardland

Color me jealous.

I am Jewish. And one day, while wandering, we wandered right into the Jewish quarter! I was pretty surprised to see all the Hebrew "Kosher" signs, all of a sudden. But, since it was the High Holidays, there were armed soldiers guarding the temple and we could not get in. It was fun. Also, in Rome, make sure that you get to see "La Bocca Dela Verita". Just a fun little thing -- that was also featured in the Audrey Hepburn movie Roman Holiday. It's right near the architectural walk and the Spanish steps, but it's easy to miss when being overwhelmed by all of that.

Judas Priest - "Heading Out To the Highway" C'mon... you know you gotta have some Priest on there! And maybe even Deep Purple - "Highway Star"!!!

It averages everyone's ratings, so yes... the 10 + 1 = 5 math is correct. And, you are not going crazy, I just added the poll.

I check out the NP: thread, too. Love it. And, if you want to see an example of what I'm talking about, check out the link in the first post. And, mf: there is the poll. Vote away!

Why do you come to VC regularly? Yep. What do you get out of coming here? How did you get into VC? I met LouieB and Wendy in line, waiting to get into a Steve Earle show that we all won tickets to. They told me about this place (so blame them). I get some good musical advice, as to cool stuff to listen to. And also (you guessed it) some good ears to let me know what they think of my tunes, too, when I have something new to offer. Also, some of the other boarders have pretty damn good bands/music themselves. It's nice to hear that stuff, too. Do you consider yourself a Wilco fan, even if yo

No support then, eh?

"The Sound Of Music" - The Bonzo Dog Band (seriously) Or, anything by the Bonzos, actually. It'll keep you awake because you'll be laughing so hard.

Stone Roses - Second Coming Tonio K. - Life In the Foodchain Shrimp Boat - Something Grand (disc 3) Brinsley Schwarz - Silver Pistol

Ditto.

Tell me about this, please.

Just bought the twofer from Amazon. Anxiously awaiting its arrival. Thanks for the recs. And, I will be getting more (all, most likely) at some point. But, this wasn't supposed to be just a recommendation thread, but a discussion of this brilliant artist. Anyone got anything else?
