id say composer. i dont know how to classify jazz musicians though.

i just got repped again. im so awesome.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 10-18-2005 10:40 PM

Like I said if we were talking Jazz it's whole new ball game. I'd say they're composers but if this was including Jazz players Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Eric Dolphy (<---:cool: ) would all be the top of the bunch for me.

PinkFrued: You have Live at the Roxy by Bob Marley right? Is "Trenchtown Rock" the first song? If so that's the same album I just lost.

Can you please send it?

Edit: I just looked it up and yes it is the version I lost. Can you [I]please[/I] send it?

Leper 10-18-2005 11:43 PM

I think advertising other sites is against the rules..

Seafroggys 10-18-2005 11:44 PM

speaking of Miles, has anyone heard i think its spelled Nevertiti? Or something like that. Really whacked out chaotic thing, but it was pretty cool when i heard it.

i can but it might take a while, ive got a few other things uploading right now. mind if i do it tomorrow?

Leper 10-18-2005 11:56 PM

I know this is very late Schyma, but I'll definitely back you on the Jim Morrison topic. Some of his lyrics (unknown soldier especially) just put me in a state of awe.

NP: Paul McCartney & Wings - Let Me Roll It

Salvalvalo 10-19-2005 02:33 AM

Not too bad. There were some really boring pages back there!

Uh classic rock relevance: Can anyone tell me if either Cold Chisel or Midnight Oil come close to be considered classic rock? (I think I need an Australian here).

blue3 10-19-2005 02:36 AM

I've never heard of those bands..

Yeah they would be... but I'm not sure. They're more 80's bands. Good stuff though.

Salvalvalo 10-19-2005 02:41 AM

Yeah I don't think they were ever big in Canada/USA - not many Aus bands are - but they've been around since the late 70's, and they seem a similar style to some bands liked by people here.

Edit: ah cool, someone who knows... yeah they were prime 80's bands, but they brought out some classic albums. And they both go off live.

blue3 10-19-2005 02:43 AM

I'll have to check those bands out sometime..

jpj 10-19-2005 07:09 AM

Late, I know, but I prefer Robert Hunter's songwriting over Jim Morrison's. I respect what he did, and he was one of the greatest performers of all time, but I'd rank Roger Waters, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Robert Hunter, and even someone like Jeff Buckley above him.

PinkFreud 10-19-2005 07:59 AM

i sent out bob marley's live at the roxy for schyma. i THINK i sent it to everyone, if i missed you, give me your email address and i'll send it out.

edit: mmm, jeff buckley. i miss my old avatar.

edit: i see, no one cares about my generosity. jerks.

or maybe youre all in school. crazy high school kids.

It was probably for that erogenous zones comment in Alt/Indie :p

Oh god...this is horrible. The day of Alice Cooper and I wake up with a headache and a stuffed-up nose. If I have a cold....that would blow majorly :upset:

np: Bob Dylan - If Not For You. I think this is my new favorite Dylan song!

heh, no i got repped last night/this early morning by helping some guy in the pit come up with a simile pertaining to shakespeare for a paper he was writing.

i chose, "...as real as dogberry's vocabulary."

its from the play, much ado about nothing. dogberry is this fuckup who uses words in incorrect contexts. sorry if youre already familiar with this, i just felt the need to explain.

did you get the marley i sent out?

i havent slept at all and im on aderrall again. i apologize if this is rambling and long.

edit: this just in, i kill threads. more coming up at 11:55

magicbus 10-19-2005 10:10 AM

Jesus, the one day I don't check mx, you guys do 8 pages of discussion :mad: I'm not reading through all of it, but here's what I caught: "Love In Vain" is my favorite song on [I]Let It Bleed[/I] (sometimes tied with "Gimme Shelter"), [I]The Freewheelin'[/I] is really good but I'm not sure which Dylan album I'd classify as first at this point, I'll have to make a top ten essential CR albums list later or something.

I'm going to math. Good day to you all.

PinkFreud 10-19-2005 10:48 AM

i think im too lazy and opinionated to make a top 10 essential list. it would just end up being my favorites.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 10-19-2005 11:15 AM

Waters' songwritting is almost unimpressive and always predictable. Seriously....probablly the most overrated songwritter ever. I'm not saying his lyrics are bad he just gets [I]way[/I] too much credit for them. I love later Pink Floyd just for the record.

thickasabrick 10-19-2005 12:16 PM

I've always thought that The Grateful Dead were musically one of the best bands of the Classic Rock era (or ever), but their lyrics have never really stood out as amazing. I'd rate Zeppelins lyrics over the Grateful Deads actually....some people may find that offensive I suppose, but it's just my opinion.

np: Pink Floyd - Let There Be More Light.

Have you heard the Harrison cover?
I heard that first, and I found the Dylan one when I was looking for CDs to put in my CD Alarm Clock, of course the album "New Morning" seemed appropriate

I agree about the Dead's lyrics

I think that lyrically, my head would explode if I encoundered a better team than Lennon/McCartney

thickasabrick 10-19-2005 12:45 PM

Yeah Lennon and McCartney are unbeatable in every way possible, although I think Dylan still has them beat lyric-wise.

Alright last night I had two different types of weed, both extremely potent. I packed a large bowl and smoked it and I was more screwed up, visually, than I ever have been before from just marijuana. I get high like every day, so it doesn't affect me the way it used to....I usually don't experience many visuals, except for the occasional blinking lights, moving objects etc that are probably just from my imagination, not the marijuana. Last night though, after this bowl, I was sitting in my room, which was dark except for a stick of incense and a candle...but when I looked at the incense there was a glowing orange and green checkerboard surrounding it, as if I was looking through a very long tube at my incense, and the tube had a checkerboard pattern on the inside. Then, I laid down and looked at the incense stick, all I could see was the glowing tip...and it was floating around in cirlces. It was so weird. I was experiencing stuff like that for the next two hours while I was watching A Long and Winding Road and then a documentary on the Stones in the 70's.

It was a really cool Stones documentary dealy, I've seen A Long and Winding Road before and although it's good...I liked the Stones one more.

Wow, thats... harsh. I find his lyrics to be (on the most part) rather brilliant, conveying bleak dreary themes very well. Time, Pigs, Nobody Home are excellent examples. If I were to find fault with him, its that he rarely wrote lyrics that weren't dark and dreary. I wouldn't put him on par with Bob Dylan or Neil Young though.

I agree with you, Waters is actually definitely in my top five for favourite songwriters. (I probably like him a lot more than you do). I find that it's hard to compare him to other songwriters (like Bob Dylan or Neil Young, that's actually the perfect example), because he was more like a beat poet...his art wasn't just in what he wrote, but how he delivered it (his music seemed to match his lyrics perfectly, and he really wasn't bounded by obstacle that would hinder his need to musically and lyrically express exactly whatever he was feeling/thinking)...and although I think Dylan does exactly the same thing just on a more simple level. I still like Dylan more. Heh heh.

edit - I hate these damn WinZip files because the albums don't play from song to song...oh wait, solo...and I always forget to click on the next song, does that make sense? Anyways, I just came back to say I'm finally listening to Jugband Blues (I had Saucerful of Secrets on, I'm not sure if I mentioned it) after like an hour and a half. Very great song!

Yeah, you pretty much described it perfectly.

Np: More Than a Feeling - Boston. This song is so d'amn catchy...
