Do the folks who loved this album when it first came out still think it holds up? I am curious...
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.
-
Pink Floyd certainly isn't "underground" by any means
Pink Floyd was the first underground band, and Syd started art rock. Research the UFO Club in London 66-67.
-
Smart move releasing his best Truckers material on a live album after that mediocre studio release.
-
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.
-
Crap song, crap remixes.
-
Yeah - it may not be original, but if you're gonna steal, steal from the best. 
I know Poon and others mentioned Gilmour, but I've always been of the opinion that Dave's solo on "Time" might just be the most perfectly recorded solo ever. I always get this image of him standing in an open field, with stacks of amps as big as skyscrapers just blasting the sounds for miles and miles.
hahha yeah that might be the coolest solo/tone ever.
-
This should be obvious but Johnny Greenwood!!!! The Bends, bends my ears!! Ok Computer is all tone the Paranoid Andriod freakout!! Just for my sakes!!
I gotta see these guys live someday soon.
Nah. The Paranoid Android freakout sounds exactly like the stuff Gilmour was doing in "Astronomy Domine" live in 68-69.

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.
-
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

I thought these guys retired with the Spin Doctors?
-
yeah, the title cut is the shit.
as surprising as it is for me to say this, i love Tim O'Reagan's solo album from '06 way way more than this.
Chris Robinson ruined Vagabonds IMHO.
And yeah, the title cut is amazing.

This goes out to Hype as well.
Just because somebody goes along with something doesn't mean they aren't being objectified. And the point you made Hype hits the nail on the head. MEN LIKE WOMEN that way, not women naturally decided shaving their legs and pits was awesome. If women don't conform to these standards they will be ostracized by our society.
So do men who grow giant beards or really long hair.
A women with hair on her legs is natural.It's also gross.
But being natural won't let her get a job on wall street, or a lead role in a movie.Same with an unkempt man who grows a giant beard.
The Lips putting these images on their screen is reenforcing societies stereotypes. Yet wayne babbles on about bringing people together and making a difference, I don't think those ideas go along with the oppression of women, something he is taking part in promoting.You must be a 19 year old art student. There's no opression of women going on at a Lips show.
-
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?

Get those albums immediately.
Exactly.Whiskeytown - don't forget to put them in there somewhere
That's like putting General Hospital next to "There Will be Blood and "No Country For Old Men".
-
Most of the music they cover sounds exactly the same and is too boring for this to work.
-
Yep.
Liking nu-country automatically qualifies one as hearing impaired.
-
-
No denying the early Son Volt is excellent. However, I really enjoy The Search, Okema, and Wide Swing as well.
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.
-
Which version of The Byrds? They certainly weren't mainstream fluff with Parsons on board. You need to check out Sweetheart of the Rodeo.
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 compared to some of that stuff.
-
Fixed it for you.
The Byrds were mainstream fluff and the Burrito Brothers were boring. There's nothing alternative about either act.
Radiohead- In Rainbows
in Someone Else's Song
Posted
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.
