[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]Excellent choice, though you can't go wrong with Who's Next. If you like either of those, then definitly look into Quadriphinia.[/QUOTE]
Yea, you definitely can. Who's Next has a couple gems drowned in a sea of mediocrity.

[QUOTE=jpj]Yea, you definitely can. Who's Next has a couple gems drowned in a sea of mediocrity.[/QUOTE]

I agree here, I think it's overrated. Although the peaks on Who's Next are among the highest the Who ever reached.

Why should anyone trying to get into the Who immediately get material from when they didn't have Keith Moon? I think the T and Q DVD is good but it definitely isn't the same as their prime material. Any first DVD recommendation for the Who has to be the Kids Are Alright.[/QUOTE]


Because then you have 1 buy and Tomy and Quadrophenia ;)
I also could have said but Tommy and Quodrophenia :P

I'm probably goin' CD shopping tonight. Hopefully I can find some good stuff.

Last time I found NRPS s/t and Aoxomoxoa for 8 bucks each. Plus I got some Best Buy gift cards.

:cool:

Lately, I've been listening to Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra's [I]Liberation Afrobeat, Vol. 1[/I]. Great album.

I'm probably going to want that if it's good. Just heads up. As always, I'll offer consolation if you send it out.

Does anyone want ELP - Tarkus (album) or Brain Salad Surgery? I uploaded it for my thread so let me know your email address if you're interested.

I've been listening to some Saga recently.

Anyone else like Saga?

[QUOTE=Lunch]I've sent that out at least two different times, I thought.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I got it from you. I like it more than s/t but not as 12 Dreams. Besides When I Touch You, I Got A Line On You might be my favorite Spirit song.

I'd say Who's Next is probably the easiest album to get into, and best for Who n00bs, even if it's not my favorite album by them.

I need to get some Dick's Picks

Never heard of Saga.

I want to get Dick's Picks Vol. 18. My dad was at that show :x

[QUOTE=robo2448]Never heard of Saga.[/QUOTE]

They're another one of those crazy Canadian 70s prog bands.

[QUOTE=JonG]I want to get Dick's Picks Vol. 18. My dad was at that show :x[/QUOTE]

There are a couple used DP at a local record store, in addition to a used copy of Hundred Year Hall (which is supposed to be great) so I'm probably going to try to pick those up.

I just learned that Eric Burdon and the Animals (no idea who's in the band now) are playing at BB King's Blues Club and Grill, for just 27 bucks. Has anyone seen them? I might try to go. BB King's Blues Club and Grill always has awesome performers but tickets are usually expensive so I've never been there. BB King himself is playing there soon, but tickets are $85. But I might go see Eric Burdon just because they're really cheap.

I hear Eric still has the power but on any given night could suck. Who is filling in on bass for them? Since Chandler died long ago.

Hey Liverwired you like Masters of Reality? I just got this really good live album of theirs, and wanted to know your thoughts about them. Fun fact Ginger Baker was part of this band for its reformation.

[QUOTE=Lunch]I agree here, I think it's overrated. Although the peaks on Who's Next are among the highest the Who ever reached.[/QUOTE]

Meh, I love it to pieces myself. I'd say its the best for a new comer because its easily the most accessible of The Who's records, although Quad. may have a bigger overall payoff. Won't Get Fooled Again may be my favorite song ever...

Eric Burdon is playing? A shame that he's in New York, though.

Eric Burdon is coming to Pittsburgh, but I'm not going. I don't thik I'll be going to another concert until the summer.

I really wish YSI would stop being such a bitch...

[QUOTE=Lunch]I've sent that out at least two different times, I thought.[/QUOTE]
Well, then you obviously don't have my e-mail address.
[email]hungryfreak843@yahoo.com[/email]

I think Eric Burdon might have came to my city, but I think he played at the Casino...and I'm not old enough to get in. All the best bands go to the Casino. It's sad.

Hey thanks for the Yes JPJ, il ltake the Instant Live Too if ya dont mind :)

They're pretty good, I only had about 6 of their songs though. They all got whiped off my computer though:(.

[QUOTE=WelcomeToTheMachine]the Woodstock kept failing today,im going to start it again right now.[/QUOTE]

Sweet. This one disc overview of Woodstock just isn't cutting it for me right now. I can upload something if you have anything you're looking for.

np- The Rolling Stones- Let's Spend the Night Together

I have Discs 1 and 3 of the Instant Live uploaded, but the 2nd keeps failing. I've been trying to upload this all day.

That avatar :eek: I totally <3 that movie. Especially that scene.

Highway 61 Revisited is such an awesome and fun album to listen to. I think every song is 5/5 except the title track, but that's still a great and really fun song. I've been hooked on that recently.

I feel like a classic rock chat, but nobody's online.

AIM chat?^

You know when I think about it Highway 61 Revisited is probally my favorite album of all time. I can, and have, listened to that album for litleraly hours, sometimes it will be the only album I listen to all day. It was a very different direction for Dylan and I think this album is where the type of music he wanted to express to everyone came together. Desolation Row is such a great closing song, I think its one of the best acoustic epics ever written.

I think the song "Highway 61 Revisited" is a 5/5 song, I love it.

Anybody like Raw Material? i got an album from them sent to me through the prog and metal mailing list, there really good.

I definitely listen to Bringing It All Back Home more, but Highway 61 Revisited is still an amazing album. I couldn't pick a favourite Dylan album, or one that I think is his "best."

I'm listening to Gates of Eden right now.

I think I also prefer BIABH because of the balance between acousitc and electric songs.


But yeah both are great.

My favorite song recently has been Tombstone Blues. Just can't stop listening to that. The lyrics are so random and nonsensical, and the song is so chaotic. I really love Bloomfied's guitarwork on it too.

It's really hard for me to pick the weakest track on Highway 61. They're all great. It might be tied with Blood on the Tracks now for me, I've been listening to it a ton recently, and haven't listened to Blood on the Tracks for a while.

I prefer it over Bringing It All Back Home.

I just heard Mister Blue Sky in a car commerical.

my favorite Dylan album is Bringing It All Back Home by far.

Jeez, Dick's Picks 12 is incredibly long. I stopped it because I'm off to watch TV. 2 hours+

Yikes, it's 200 minutes, 7 seconds.

:X

What do you expect, it's an entire Grateful Dead show.

I sent out the first and third discs of the Instant Live, anyone who wants it, but didn't get it just tell me.

Didn't expect 3 hours and 20 minutes :)

Maybe 2 and a half to 3.

Eyes of the World was amazing :) China Cat Sunflower and Truckin' were also up there, Jerry-wise.

Wow my computer suddenly got really, really fast. Those downloads finished in about one minute. Hope it's a good show. I'm about to listen to it.

oh my ****ing god, oh my mother****ing god, i am now the most pissed man i nthe world, my ****ing little cousin was running around my house, she hit the table in my room, my guitar fell to the ground that was leaning against it (my fault i know) and stepped on it by accident, the neck is snapped in half, im so pissed, its not her fault but still, ohmy****inggod, this ****ing sucks, im ****ign shaking over here, that **** was special to me.

now its back to playing my old warlock that i have to get fixed. aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

EDIT: it may look a little bit confusing what i said, the thing cracked ALMOST in half. goddamnit.

EDIT2: yeah i seem a bit mad, im a bit calmer now, thanks for the ABB jpj.
