I think the Beatles thread has enough trouble surviving already even without us posting Beatles related things in the CR thread.....just a thought:-/

Yea I know what you mean :/

Lately though, there haven't been many topics I feel like adding to. It's been arguing, the Stones, vinyls, half of the recent discussion hasn't even been about the Beatles. It turns me away from the thread whenever I go in there.

Phallus Dei 03-13-2006 11:19 PM

I don't think the Stones have been mentioned lately in the Beatles thread. I haven't even mentioned them for along time there.
Ugh I've been listening to the Doors lately. Just their self titled, its the only one I like.

Leper 03-13-2006 11:28 PM

Yeah I guess most of the recent topics of been loosely related to the Beatles at best.

I love the Doors so bloody much. Strange Days is currently my favourite album by them.

I've been on a Doors kick lately. Their first album is brilliant.

/puts it on

One of the things I love so much about The Doors is they just had this primal, unbridled passion, just so much energy.

PinkFreud 03-14-2006 12:08 AM

What happened to the page numbers? Are they different for anyone else?

I burned out on the Doors but they're a good listen on occasion. When The Music's Over is epic.

Leper 03-14-2006 12:16 AM

I prefer The End over WTMO. The guitar in it really tends to make my mind wander.

PinkFreud 03-14-2006 12:17 AM

I just don't like The End. It rambles too much and gets a bit boring. Morrison's voice is top-notch in WTMO which is something i can grab ahold of and listen to.

Leper 03-14-2006 12:52 AM

Hmm fair enough. It does ramble a bit, but something about that song, maybe the guitar, just always keeps interested.

Anyone here a fan of the Tragically Hip? I know they're not that big in the U.S. but up here they're often referred to as "Canada's Beatles." I don't think they really compare to the Beatles at all, but that just gives you an idea of how popular they are here.

PinkFreud 03-14-2006 01:02 AM

They're not bad. I have Road Apples.

Leper 03-14-2006 01:16 AM

Our radio stations are so obsessed with them it seems that I don't even feel a need to buy any of their albums. I like them, but they definitely get overplayed.

gmoneyguy 03-14-2006 01:18 AM

Tragocally Hip sounds familiar.

Leper 03-14-2006 01:37 AM

Their most famous song is "New Orleans is Sinkin'"...ring any bells?

"[I]New Orleans is sinkin' man and I don't wanna swim![/I]"

Hmmm?...

Phallus Dei 03-14-2006 07:55 AM

They are going to be at Sasquatch! I'm sooo excited.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 03-14-2006 11:09 AM

I've seen them mentioned before in here but other than that I've never heard of them. I guess it's just a northern thing, just like Bruce Springsteen. (but I'm hoping they're not as bad)

Glitterati 03-14-2006 12:02 PM

The Tragically Hip are pretty good, my sister has one of their albums. Blow At High Dough is a great song.

Their first album is perfect in my eyes. Its by far one of the greatest albums ever, definitly in my top ten.

Same here. I hate when it does that.

I'm not a huge fan of the Doors' self-titled. I much prefer Morrison Hotel. I like the bluesier sound more.

If YSI ever worked for me I'd upload a bunch of their songs, but ya know...

JonG 03-14-2006 03:25 PM

That's what happens when you advertise.

Yeah, I saw that. Haha. I think I may start posting more over there. It just moves so [I]slow[/I]. I can't even stand it when MX moves slowly.

It's funny because I'm a mod at that forum.

It wouldn't move so slow if more people posted there.

logic ++


I just listened to Abbey Road again. I still like Rubber Soul better.

Yes. And so is Lunch.

robo2448 03-14-2006 04:52 PM

ha I'm like the only regular on the forum who isn't a mod. Just me and Veedbok I think.

PinkFreud, post there!

I prefer Strange Days to the Doors s/t. I have no idea what you guys are talking about and I'm too lazy to read back more posts, but I thought I'd just share that.

np: Tea Leaf Green- Incandescent

Carne Evil 03-14-2006 05:29 PM

I'm confused. What's a mod in this case?

Jumping in to the conversation randomly, but Strange Days is definitely the best Doors album.

MBS 03-14-2006 05:35 PM

They're talking about a completely different site.

Ah, now it makes sense. I honestly thought he was refering to the "mod" classic rock scene.

Scuba_Steve 03-14-2006 06:14 PM

/starts a new topic.


Today as I was converting Lou Reed's Rock N Roll Animal into MP3 from vinyl I just realized something.


This man is god. I've heard velvet underground before (I have a best of along with Loaded) but he just seems so much better on his own.

Anyone else here a huge fan of his? (I remember someone talking about him recently)

PinkFreud 03-14-2006 06:22 PM

I much prefer his work with the VU. It just comes together so much more for me. Plus he put out so much trash on his own that maybe the short life of the group was a blessing.

Scuba_Steve 03-14-2006 06:40 PM

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]I much prefer his work with the VU. It just comes together so much more for me. Plus he put out so much trash on his own that maybe the short life of the group was a blessing.[/QUOTE]


yeah, when he put out bad stuff, it was REALLY REALLY bad.


But on the other hand, when he put out good stuff, it was REALLY REALLY good.

PinkFreud 03-14-2006 06:52 PM

I don't know. I still prefer the VU to anything he's ever done.

JonG 03-14-2006 06:53 PM

Loaded>

It's perfect.

Against Miik! 03-14-2006 06:55 PM

Hey guys. Sorry I don't post here much anymore. But recently in my life, alt rock>classic rock.

I still like cr, but have very little new to contribute to the conversation.
