  1. here is what a couple of people posted on one of those sites showing lyrics. The second quote doesn't make too much sense, but the first quote is fairly interesting.
  2. NO! That would mess up the tight perm I've got going on down there, I use Soul Glo for that.
  3. But this does NOT make me a Fudge Packer, OK! (or I sometimes use Mud like Welsh Rich)
  4. It's not bad at all. I'm not too sure I like her voice enough to really get into the album, but the music is good. I don't like her voice on Open Roads for example, but I do like it on The Endless Rain. I really like the timbre of the drum and bass though, I'll give it a few more listens for sure.
  5. Actually John Wesley Harding went to #2 in America and #1 in the UK and sold better than any of his previous albums on first release, so there wasn't a backlash at all. Well what I meant was that you think the lyric is just there to rhyme, but it's actually one of the key lines in the song because after Judas Priest has leant Frankie Lee money he has become indepted to the man, the fact that he says "Oh, yes, he is my friend," / Said Frankie Lee in fright / "I do recall him very well / In fact, he just left my sight." This shows firstly that he is calling him a friend - he is indepte
  6. The lyrics are incredible. The line you pointed out is a great case in point: "Oh, yes, he is my friend," / Said Frankie Lee in fright / "I do recall him very well / In fact, he just left my sight." That's not just there to rhyme, though you might think it is.
  7. I'll push you in the Mid lake if you don't stop saying that!
  8. That's cool. I've got an oink account, but I might look on Soulseek first so that I don't have to leave my computer on all night trying to rejuvinate my share ratio.
  9. Excellent. Again you said all the right things there. I'm going to hunt this down!
  10. Cool, you're saying all the right things here. What instruments are used on the album?
  11. I think I could like one of her albums because I like her voice, but I've never really liked the production too much, what does this album sound like?
  12. It's number 1 for me. It's like nothing else around in 1967. And it marks the start of my favourite period in musical history - the early 1970's (1967/8 to 1974) I also see this album (with regard to that Observer top 50 most influential albums) as one of the most influential of all time along with Music From Big Pink. After those two albums came out, most music changed style pretty quickly and pretty drastically.
  13. I'll have to watch the highlights tonight. Who got the wickets? EDIT: Oh, good for Harmison, and stop editing your posts! And as for Midlake, well ... you're just wrong!
  14. I think only Dylan's new album is likely to stop this being my favourite album this year, unless something comes along that I've never heard of, that is.
  15. Good for us, bad for Pakistan. 9 runs for 2 wickets (there are 11 batsmen per side, and you have to bowl 10 of them out before you're allowed to bat - unless they want to declare that is)
  16. In many ways that album is far more influential than Pet Sounds, as it led to a big British Folk scene throughout the 1970's (although obviously there are other albums before that time which are part of the same lineage). There aren't a whole lot of albums that sound like Pet Sounds or Sgt Pepper for example (also that whole scene was drawing to a close by the time Sgt Pepper came out), but there are loads of bands and albums that borrowed from Liege and Lief, and all the members of Fairport that left went off in different directions and kept the scene alive. Also, this whole modern folk scene
  17. bonnie prince billy's new album advert
  18. The Tribe (BBC 2, Sunday 9.00pm) He hasn't had the chance to take any hallucinogens yet, but he's been able to spit blood over his guests, drink the stuff and kill himself a cow.
  19. It's 'written' by the carter family. It's copyrighted to A.P. Carter, but as with most of their songs, this is only because they were the first to record them.
  20. It's not the only explanation. He was resting and felt he could be missed for a few minutes. They play football in attack like they are having a Sunday knock-about in the park, which is why they are so fun, and likewise they often do the same in defence.
  21. It's called Brazilian football. That's what they do. Whoever thought that was some kind of scandal needs to watch how the Brazilians play football a bit more often. I heard Roberto Carlos was on the grassy nole too, but he was resting and looking the other way so nobody suspected a thing. The crafty Brazilian!
  22. Oi! I thought we'd settled this already. You should bare in mind though, that just because certain people from the advent of recorded music onwards put group harmony singing on to record. That doesn't mean they invented it - all forms of early music are based on groups singing together so naturally harmonising is a part of that. I still don't see how this diminishes the importance of the beach boys in modern music.
  23. Billy Bragg walking around Woody Guthries birth place with his skinny white legs in shorts and white socks pulled way up high, is one of the best documentary moments ever. It's British culture meeting American culture head on - truly an Englishman abroad. The only thing that spoils it for me is Nora Guthrie. Her personality grates with me a bit, but apart from that it's a very good documentary.
  24. I might buy it then. I already have Good Timin' & Baby Blue on the boxset 'Good Vibrations', but I think I'd like to have the albums because they will be mastered better, and there must be a few other good tracks on there too, although the idea of a disco version of "Here Comes The Night" sounds very dodgy indeed.
