I listened to [I]Allman Brothers: Live At The Fillmore[/I] today. I forgot how good that album is. Man, I can't wait to see them.

When are you gonna see them?

[QUOTE]I was very tempted to put it in, but it does have a couple of weak songs, and some short, unnecessary songs. I did include Live At Leeds though, and was talking about the deluxe edition with Tommy performed. I think that live version of Tommy blows away the album and is perfect.[/QUOTE]

The short ones are just there to advance the plot, they probably could have bben added on to other songs, but it flows well so I don't really mind. I find that Tommy combines flow and excelent music better than many other albums.

I see how most of the short ones work, but similar to The Wall, some of them are just unnecessary, like Tommy Can You Hear Me?

Most will disagree, but I honestly think Eat a Peach is perfect.

EDIT: Well, I sure know how to kill a thread :(

Concerts in Daytona late june
 

Hi,

I'm going to Daytona Beach, FL, late this june to visit a buddy of mine. Does anybody know of any concerts, festivals or venues worth going to at that time down there? Not necessarily classic rock, though, anything with a good guitar is good...

Thanks.

I found out something the other day that I never knew before..I was looking at the booklet of my Tom Petty cd-full moon fever- and apparently George Harrisson sings backup on one, maybe more of his tracks (Won't back down i'm pretty sure is one of them). I'm not entirely sure why this amazed me, but it did nevertheless.

Have you guys heard Dinosaur by King Crimson?

lol, i still haven't heard any king crimson.

I think the only King Crimson song I've heard id 21st Century Schizoid Man. I enjoyed the song, but I don't think that I would really like them that much. To be honest I'd probably only buy one of their albums to hear Tony Levin play. He's supposed to be an amazing bassist so I'd like to see what he can do.

Hello, im new here and my favorite band is the velvet underground. I guess that goes under this thread. So I was wondering if people here like them, because not many people i know like them.
What are your thoughts on the velvet underground?

I enjoy what few songs I have heard from the Velvets.

/puts them on


They were incredibly influential, and very versatile. Unfirtunatley, there were so not mainstream that I almost never hear their songs. I've been wanting to buy VU & Nico for a while, but, I have no money.

Nico is currently up in the Alt/Indie YouSendtIt thread.

I only have VU & Nico, but I really like it. Heroin is an awesome song.

If you are more of a mainstream person, i think you should buy either their self titled album or their "loaded" album first, they are more conventional rock albums.

I'm not mainstream at all really. I was just pointing out that it took me a while to discover them because they get basically zero airplay. I don't care how much it gets played as long as it's good music.

I have very little VU, but love what i do have. Oh Sweet Nuthin' is amazing. Great song.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]I've been listening to [I]Workingman's Dead[/I] lately (I'm trying to cover "Cumberland Blues"). And I realized that this is one of the few perfect (IMO) albums I have ever heard. Which would hold a position that Dr. John's [I]Gris-gris[/I] and Calexico's [I]Convict Pool[/I] also hold.

Do any of you have albums that you think are perfect (as in every song is fantastic and definitely 5/5)?[/QUOTE]
i would say the only perfect albums ive heard are wish you where here by pink floyd (not dark side because of "on the run") and Machine Head by deep purple comes really close to being perfect
same with
Whos Next
The doors
Velvet Underground and nico
Let it bleed

On the run couldnt be better to be on DSOTM. Its the best example of what the album represents 'the troubles of the world enough to drive you insane'.

anyway, mine are
DSOTM
WYWH
LZIV
Sgt Peppers
Moving Pictures

-open for AIM music swaping :)

yeah it fits the album, but doesnt any one else find it annoying after a while?

no. In fact, im trying to match the effects on my guitar. Of course, its near impossibe to match, but playin it without the album isnt to bad. You just need a ****load of effects and a slide

Perfect Albums:

Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home
Iggy and the Stooges - Raw Power
David Bowie - Low
Alice in Chains - Jar of Flies
Beck - Odelay!
Beck - Sea Change
Miles Davis - Bitches Brew
Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Miles Davis - Miles Smiles
Sly and the Family Stone - Stand!
Sly and the Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On
Television - Marquee Moon
Radiohead - Kid A

And others, but I'm not going to bore you guys with hip-hop because you guys won't have any of it.
