  1. Holy fanboy review. This is above and beyond ridiculous. Radiohead doesn't even have the discography of Bowie or the Stones, let alone the Beatles.
  2. It's forgettable crap. I don't know anyone who still listens to it. It will be remembered for it's marketing scheme, not for it's subpar, retread music.
  3. Pink Floyd was the first underground band, and Syd started art rock. Research the UFO Club in London 66-67.
  4. Smart move releasing his best Truckers material on a live album after that mediocre studio release.
  5. I can't believe they just got the 64-71 Stones. Huge windfall for Emusic. Goood for them. I join up for about three months a year, then quit, then join again. They don't get stuff in fast enough for me.
  6. hahha yeah that might be the coolest solo/tone ever.
  7. Nah. The Paranoid Android freakout sounds exactly like the stuff Gilmour was doing in "Astronomy Domine" live in 68-69.
  8. Poncho and Lefty - Townes Van Zandt Dear Prudence - The Beatles Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands - Dylan Rock n Roll - Led Zeppelin Johny B Goode - Chuck Berry Lodi - CCR Ripple - The Grateful Dead Blue - The Jayhawks Back In Black - AC/DC There are a few.
  9. Gilmour (probably the king of texture/tone- had several different gorgeous trademark sounds) Barrett (his crazy distorted work on Piper was groundbreaking to say the least) Hendrix ( the ultimate guitar god, who also happened to be friends with Barrett) Those three changed it all IMHO. The Edge's sound can be heard on "re-emergence" from Echoes and Run Like Hell. the following: Page Townsend Fripp Angus Young Neil Young
  10. Abbey Road - Beatles Blonde on Blonde - Dylan American Beauty - Grateful Dead Tomorrow The Green Grass - The Jayhawks Sticky Fingers - The Rolling Stones Our Mother The Mountain - Townes Van Zandt It's a Wonderful Life - Sparklehorse Meddle - Pink Floyd Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts - M83 The Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips The Sophtware Slump - Grandaddy You Are There - Mono Blueberry Boat - The Fiery Furnaces Sea Change - Beck Ragged Glory - Neil Young Ys - Joanna Newsom The Dirty South - The Drive By Truckers In the Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson Days of Future Passed -
  11. I thought these guys retired with the Spin Doctors?
  12. Chris Robinson ruined Vagabonds IMHO. And yeah, the title cut is amazing.
  13. Hey Hoback - Did you get your name from that amazing area south of Grand Teton?
  14. 1. David Gilmour 2. Jimmi Hendrix 3. Jimmy Page 4. Chuck Berry 5. Jerry Garcia 6. Pete Townsend 7. Keith Richards 8. Greg Allman 9. Eddie Van Halen 10. Neil Young The rest don't matter.
  15. So do men who grow giant beards or really long hair. It's also gross. Same with an unkempt man who grows a giant beard. You must be a 19 year old art student. There's no opression of women going on at a Lips show.
  16. oh no! the Flaming Lips have images of naked girls at their show! Oh no! That's sexist! Come on. And for those saying they aren't "real" girls, they looked natural to me(no boob jobs). And who cares if they shave themselves? That's the way 99% of men prefer it so why wouldn't they?
  17. 1. Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd 2. Hollywood Town Hall - The Jayhawks 3. Our Mother the Mountain - Townes Van Zandt 4. Abbey Road - The Beatles 5. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd 6. Ys - Joanna Newsom 7. The Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips 8. Blonde on Blonde - Bob Dylan 9. Meddle - Pink Floyd 10. House of the Holy - Led Zeppelin 11. Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts - M83 12. The Sophtware Slump - Grandaddy 13. The Dirty South - The Drive By Truckers 14. Days of Future Passed - The Moody Blues 15. If You're Feeling Sinister - Belle and Sebastian 16. In the Court of the Crimson King
  18. 1. Hollywood Town Hall 2. Tomorrow the Green Grass 3. Blue Earth 4. Salvation Blues (Olson) 5. Rainy Day Music (Olson-less Jayhawks) Get those albums immediately. That's like putting General Hospital next to "There Will be Blood and "No Country For Old Men".
  19. Most of the music they cover sounds exactly the same and is too boring for this to work.
  20. Liking nu-country automatically qualifies one as hearing impaired.
  21. I actually enjoy Okemah just as much as their other work. The Search has a couple very good songs, but lots of filler and really bad album art.
  22. Very mainstream. I'd give more credit to Townes Van Zandt on stuff like "Our Mother the Mountain" and "The Late Great Townes Van Zandt". There was nothing alternative sounding about the vocals or instrumentation of the Byrds. It had a very poppy west coast sound that fit right in on standard pop stations. Compare that to Townes Van Zandts un-radio friendly vocals or Gary Lourises alternative guitar flourishes on Blue Earth and Hollywood Town Hall. "Poncho and Lefty" has an alternative sound to it, along with some of what Young and Dylan were doing. The Byrds sound like Brooks and Dunn compa
  23. The Byrds were mainstream fluff and the Burrito Brothers were boring. There's nothing alternative about either act.
