Lately I've been listening to The Who. More than I normally listen to them, which isn't easy to do.

And the first few Jethro Tull albums.

[QUOTE]Can we talk about Blues in here?[/QUOTE]

Of course not, stupid :lol:

Today I have listened to a ton of Dylan, Blood on the Tracks and a greatest hits. I think Blood on the Tracks is his best CD, as I feel that Bringing it all Back Home is overrated, and Blood on the Tracks slightly edges out Highway 61 and Blonde on Blonde.

I have also listened to some of The Band, and Springsteen. I had a tennis match all afternoon, and I'm an alternate, which means I don't play every day. In other words, when we have a match, I get to chill and listen to music the whole time.

Minutemen
Jimmy Cliff
Peter Tosh
Bunny Wailer

But I've been listening to them for a couple of months.

Cool :thumb:

I wish I had played tennis. At my school its so chill, basically I would do what you do if I was on the team.

Well there will always be the usual five I listen to every day (Pink Floyd Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Grateful Dead), but I've been listening to a lot more Blue Oyster Cult, and Black Sabbath this week then usual.

The Who are the greatest. Which albums are you listening to?

I still need to get my first Tull album, need to start making cash first though.

Well I'll never stop listening to The Who Sell Out and Tommy, but I'm listening to more of their later stuff nowadays (most regulars here can tell you that I've tried to avoid it for some time now).

has anyone else here ever heard John entwhistle do a bass solo?

[QUOTE=RockAndRoll]has anyone else here ever heard John entwhistle do a bass solo?[/QUOTE]

I think if the other three guys stopped playing on Heaven and Hell on Live at Leeds, you would have yourself a pretty good bass solo.

[QUOTE=Walrus Gumboot]Has anyone heard of Leon Russel?[/QUOTE]

My dad has an album or two of his, but I haven't actually heard him. Is he worth checking out?

I've been listening to some jazz lately, but I'm a noob to jazz.

I've also been listening to:
Tony Rice
Keller Williams
Tea Leaf Green
Yonder Mountain String Band
Jeff Beck

I love Tommy, Sell Out is pretty good but not great in my opinion. I don't think I've really given it enough of a chance though.

I bought The Who By the Numbers a few weeks ago, which I hadn't heard too much positive stuff about. I was thinking about buying Who Are You, Facedances, or It's Hard?

Are they really as bad as they are said to be?

I wouldn't buy those three until you have all their other albums. And even then, it's risky.

My dad has their 30 Years of Maximum R&B Collection, so I was lucky enough to get the best of their later years without having to buy those albums. I know a lot of compilations/box sets do a lackluster job of picking material, but this collection is excellent, I think.

I forgot to mention that I have been pretty much obsessed with Pink Floyd the last couple of weeks.

/desperately wants Animals/

I could upload it for you if you want it.

Do you guys like surf music?

[QUOTE=lunch998]I wouldn't buy those three until you have all their other albums. And even then, it's risky. [/QUOTE]

I do, except for their debut and A quick one, but I think I will settle for downloading just certain better songs.

Thanks for the advice :thumb:.

I've been listening to-
The Kinks
moe.
Widespread Panic
The Mars Volta
This awesome piece I wrote that includes a Marimba and a bass guitar
Southern Man Riff arranged into Sitar music by your truly.

Those are essential, though you may not like A Quick One very much.

[QUOTE=RockAndRoll]has anyone else here ever heard John entwhistle do a bass solo?[/QUOTE]
who hasnt? my generation?

also the bass solo in 5:15 off of their live at the royal albert hall is un-freaking-believable.

hes by far my favorite bassist.

I consider My Generation bass fills rather than a solo.

[QUOTE=lunch998]I consider My Generation bass fills rather than a solo.[/QUOTE]

same here. It is an awesome riff but not a solo. I believe he soloed on the Live At Leeds version of My Generation.

Not sure though, I'll check it out.

Nothing more than some great fills on the My Generation from Live at Leeds.

His playing on The Real Me is spectacular.

Yeah, it was hearing My Generation a month or so ago that got me into the Who, its been a while since I was impressed by bass like that. Not since I got Pink Floyd's cd Meddle. (in the early winter).

well it's some good stuff live at the royal albert hall (y2000 I think) he does a bass solo in 515, it's some cool stuff.

Would you recommend buying it?

[QUOTE=robo2448]Would you recommend buying it?[/QUOTE]
for sure. zak starkey does a great job of filling in for keith moons shoes. and entwistle is in top form. in my wife he solos a bit, 5:15 as stated is killer and the real me as usual is a great bass performance.

Is this site running extremely slowly to anyone else?

I was thinking about eventually getting that, but I wasn't too sure.
