  1. Mark Olson- Salvation Blues Nick Lowe- At my Age Mural and the Mint- Caterpillar-Cocoon-Butterfly ( free download here, http://themuralandthemint.com/ ) Bright Eyes- Cassadaga Crowded House- Time on Earth Still need to give that Radiohead a few spins, I liked alot after one listen, and never really cared for there music
  2. Yeah, I guess he was part of the laurel canyon scene. I'd say the record lives up to the hype, it's quite beautiful in a pleasant and breezy southern California way.
  3. I recommend the show if he's coming thru your town, it was a big drunken fun time.
  4. thought i'd brag a little, though really I'm just bored got these someone wrote Bruce Hornsby on Jackson Brownes face on the backcover, I never owned this before, listening now, it's like the Eagles if they had good songs
  5. I think it's quite good, if your into psychedelic folk rock, I'd recommend it, and you can hear some Louris influence on the vocals
  6. Theres a new one coming out on yep roc in January I believe. I've heard it a few times, if you dug the last one you'll dig this one too, kind of similar, with some more production, more musical ideas.
  7. The solo Gary Louris record and the one he did with Mark Olson.
  8. Formed a cover band for one hometown Christmas gig, we where pretty terrible but had lots of fun. I'd love to have an oldies cover band someday, or a tribute band, maybe Booker T and the MG's., or of course the Dead. Yo Jerseymike, pretty cool about the nominations!
  9. I always thought 'sound of lies' was unjustly panned, still listen to that record to this day. George Harrison- Living in the material world I've read some negative reviews, for one it followed up all things must pass, so expectations must have been pretty high. Also, it was thought to be a little heavy handed with the spiritualism , and I admit to not liking 'the light that has lighted the world' for that reason, but love every other tune, especially ' don't let me wait to long', 'who can see it', and 'be here now'
  10. yeah, mine too. The Joshua Tree was the first time I was anxious or even knew when a new record was coming out, although I think it's a great record, it was sort of a let down, my expectations must have been thru the roof.
  11. A new project of a friend of mine, one song I encourage you to check out is below, it's about the out of control gun violence here in philly, it turned out really well and should be heard. http://www.themuralandthemint.com/wp-conte...09/05-tyree.mp3 You can download the EP here for free as well, if pretty indie rock tunes well sung are your thing, I highly recommend it. http://themuralandthemint.com/
  12. Beatles- Red Album U2- the Unforgettable Fire Pixies - Surfer Rosa Grateful Dead- Skeletons from the Closet Widespread Panic- Everyday Pavement- Crooked Rain Wilco- Being There and Summerteeth Jayhawks- Tomorow the green Grass Original Harmony Ridge Creekdippers Elvis Costello- My Aim is true
  13. FUG YEAH! love the kinks at all there various stages Standing in the middle of nowhere Wondering how to begin Lost between tomorrow and yesterday Between now and then And now we're back where we started Here we go round again Day after day I get up and I say I better do it again Where are all the people going Round and round till we reach the end One day leading to another Get up go out do it again Then it's back where you started Here we go round again Back where you started Come on do it again And you think today is going to be better Change the world and do it again Give it all up and sta
  14. George- Old Brown shoe John- Revolution ( the rocker ) Paul- Hey Jude ( obvious choice but I can
  15. George's records truly reveal themselves to me as I get a little older, they bring me much joy. I'm in the process of getting them all on vinyl, just a couple more to go, and the dark horse label art is the coolest, the records look great.
  16. Yo Issadora! CHicks in to Metallica are hardcore! and though I was a little scared of them in High school, I admired them from afar. On an unrelated note, I'm a disant realtive of Billie Burke on my Moms side, who graces your avatar as GLinda the good witch, and My Aunt Cathy looks alot like her.
  17. Sorry, didn't realize this is ground thats already been covered. I
  18. I found most of these on youtube, classic stuff! I love the one where he's interviewed with Carlos Santana, Carlos is being all positive talking about good vibes and this and that, and Dylans just being impossible.
  19. SHUT UP! ....................... yeah, I totally f'd that up
  20. Though all four of these records rock so freakin hard and masterfully that the weak scatter in fear and GOD himself bows before there thunderous power! One must be chosen to forever rule above all records, especially the feeble hippie tree hugger records discussed here on VC. Choose wisely my friends or Kirk Hammett will send his hair weave to hunt you down like a demon hound, and eat you alive for eternity!
  21. I for one encourage TM and any other artists to post free music and tell us whats up with your band anytime, whats the reason against this again?
  22. The Individuals that made up the Traveling Wilburys, The Clash, Jerry and the Dead, Ricky Nelson, Dusty Springfield, the Jayhawks, and some classic country cuts, that pretty much sums up where i'm coming from.
  23. Don't be knocking SJ, we got the Pine barrens, Long Beach Isand, awesome malls, the Pine Barrens. Prague was bitchin! South of France was way cool, cliff diving, hashish, topless beaches, I need a vacation! I've been out west and some places inbetween, but there is many more places I'd love to see in the States, I hope to be a young retired man with an RV one day.
  24. That's a sad but great story there go-go, and Red Lacey is pretty cool name as well. Recently my uncle unearthed a letter my grandfather wrote to my Dad, whom he had never met because was born after my grandfather was deployed to the South Pacific. My Grandfather survived the war, but you get the sense by reading the letter that he wasn't so confident that he would, also it give some insight into the thinking of the time, the call to duty and the greater good.
