[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]Yeah, the screenwriter for the movie totally f'ed up.

I got Quadrophenia today, and I'm happy with my purchase. Doctor Jimmy is such a good song.[/QUOTE]

Quadrophenia's great. After having it on my computer for eight zillion years, I listened to the first part t'other day. Good stuff.

np: Dylan - Maggie's Farm

DeusExMachina 10-25-2005 10:57 AM

I've never heard Quadrophenia. It's sad.

Phish covered DSOTM? That's interesting.

robo2448 10-25-2005 01:37 PM

I like Quadrophenia but I haven't listened to it in a long time. I listened to Tommy today and I really want to see the movie even if it's supposed to be really bad. I'd like to hear some live Phish. Ohio or Suite Judy Blue Eyes is my favorite CSNY song.

JonG 10-25-2005 01:52 PM

Teach Your Children, 4+20, Almost Cut My Hair are my favorites.

[QUOTE=RNR]Phish are great for the turning 3 minute songs into 20 minute jams. Or so i've heard.

*has never seen Phish because they don't come to Canada. Probably because it's cold and nobody likes them here :(*[/QUOTE]

Phish are Vermant so I don't think they have a problem with it being cold...

So, I gather I'm not the only one who couldn't get on yesterday? I had Changes stuck in my head durring Math Class today so badly it hurt...

Broken Arrow 10-25-2005 02:11 PM

So I bought Neil's new album........finally.

JonG 10-25-2005 02:13 PM

Do you like it? I saw a boatload of copies at Best Buy. I'm going back tonight to get a DVD and maybe more CDs. :)

Broken Arrow 10-25-2005 02:21 PM

It's better than I thought. I still need to listen to it a bit more but it has some great tunes.

Thats good, I'm probably going to get it soon.

Broken Arrow 10-25-2005 02:27 PM

Yeah, I decided I'm going to try to complete my Neil Young collection no matter what genre/phase it is. Yes that means the techo album from the 80's.

I've only got 13 of his albums solo or with Crazyhorse, 2 of his CSNY albums and a Buffalo Springfield album. And a bootleg.

Badmoon 10-25-2005 02:34 PM

Vassar Clements died. :upset:

PinkFreud 10-25-2005 02:51 PM

will someone upload quadrophenia for me? i appear to have lost my copy.

the blind faith bootleg died repeatedly, so im still trying.

Even [I]Everybody's Rockin'[/I] by Neil Young & The Hot Pinks? You're a brave man.

Whoever wanted Jazz is Dead, hopefully I'll start uploading that soon...I don't think I have much else to add...A Live One, so is CSN&Y, yep...

EDIT: Did you want Laughing Water or Blue Light Rain?

Laughing Water. I went to Best Buy and they didn't have any of the
following:
Derek Trucks
Jazz Is Dead
Rory Gallagher
Eric Sardinas

:(

I got the G3 DVD though. :)

Glitterati 10-25-2005 04:18 PM

For some reason, I've really been into James Taylor lately. I'm pretty sure I'm the lone James Taylor here :(

Even [I]Everybody's Rockin'[/I] by Neil Young & The Hot Pinks? You're a brave man.[/QUOTE]

I've got Everyobody's Rockin'. It's not as bad as most people make it out to be, half the people who make fun of it have never even heard it. It's just different than his normal style. Although I'll admit I've only listened to it twice.

Last night I was wide awake and very bored at midnight, so I started rummaging through every little nook and cranny in my room looking for some weed that I might have forgotten about (it happens quite often, and I did actually find some). Anyways, I also found about ten or fifteen songs (mostly just lyrics, but some chords/melody lines too) that I must have written in the past year or so and forgotten about. It was really wierd because I have no recollection writing any of them, some of them are actually really good and can definitely be used...some of them I just put back where I found them because they were slightly embarressing/crappy.

One thing I learned from this is that not only has my songwriting improved in the past several months, but so has my mood. About half of the songs I found were very depressing, some almost seemed like suicide notes in poem form...it was pretty scary actually. Everything I've written lately hasn't been necessarily always "happy", but it's usually at least optimistic. I must have had some major problems when I wrote those songs. :confused:

np: Bob Dylan's 115th Dream.

James Taylor is OK, he's not anything too great though.

I hate that song, so much.

Did anyone notice the similar threads thing on the bottom of the page?

thats why you should shop at borders instead. which g3 dvd? the new one, with petrucci? i have the malmsteen one, which means i need to skip past his set. i would have preferred the eric johnson one, but i have that on cd already.

thickasabrick, elliott smith type lyrics? thats cool. ive written some of those, though, admittedly ALL of them were bad.

James Taylor is great, very uplifting and relaxing. I always listen to him on long road trips.

Yeah, I got both. The new one is in Tokyo with Petrucci. Both great. I didn't like Malmsteen though in the last one.

robo2448 10-25-2005 05:09 PM

James Taylor really isn't that bad. Everyone around here seems to hate him whenever he's brought up. I have one of his cds but I never listen to it. I remember that it was a pretty good cd though, I should try to find it.

Cocunuts is a pretty good store. A lot like FYE in terms of prices, but better selection. Borders is good too. Sam Goody really, really sucks.

Cream tomorrow:cool:

yeah, i dislike malmsteen in general. i dont much like petrucci either. johnson is amazing though.

james talyor is a great songwriter and lyricist.

thickasabrick 10-25-2005 05:23 PM

All the music stores around me suck so bad. For every good band they will have about four different Greatest Hits albums....and then the "digitally remastered" version of the bands best selling/most popular album. It makes me so very angry!

Which is why I usually just buy vinyl.

edit- I don't actually think I've ever listened to James Taylor. He's always sounded like a songwriter that I would like, but I just haven't had any chances to listen to him yet.

Malmsteen makes me puke.

Seafroggys 10-25-2005 05:27 PM

Which is why you go to the indie stores, if there are any.

Really good one in town, a ways to drive (about a 25-30 min.) drive but they have damn good selection. Its the only place in this area that I found a new CD of Deep Purple IN Rock, as well as any BOC CD besides Agents of FOrtune and greatest hits.

He's kinda softer than Bob Dylan or Neil Young, more like, say, Paul Simon.

I kinda like Yngwie Malmsteen, but not too seriously. He's entertaining, to say the least.

[quote]Cream tomorrow[/quote]

Lucky SOB...

Seafroggys 10-25-2005 06:06 PM

man, i'd rather see Cream than Paul, mainly because I"ve already seen Paul (but if I hadn't seen Paul already, I'd see him over Cream).

Listened to Quadrophenia for the first time today....pretty damn good, not one bad song on it. THough I was expecting it to be better.

My parents saw them play Quadrophenia live in '96.

The way it transitioned from I Am the Sea to The Real Me is so awesome. The Real Me's got a great groove.
