Sounds real nice. And do you mean twangy like a Telecaster?
|
it si acoustic electric so not as twangy as a telecaster but i nicer milder twang
|
Im taking a classical guitar class next year. i cant wait.
|
they dont offer that kinda thing at my school:(
|
My school is really big on sports and music.
This class is going to be alot of guitar theory, which i like, but alot of playing too. |
my school is a poor country school inhbabited by a bunch of hick redneck jocks who are lead by our nazi principal.
|
So what do you folks recommend in the way of Bob Dylan albums?
|
I'm taking Music and Film and Instrumental Music Lab next year. I'm so excited
Music and Film is watching movies and listening to music and reviewing them and stuff like that. I think. Instrumental music lab is playing your instrument pretty much. You learn a lot about theory and stuff too, from what I've heard. /can't wait. |

The Times They Are A-Changin' |
The Times They Aare A-Changin' is probably his seventh best. It's his most conventional protest folk album.
Blonde on Blonde and Blood on the Tracks are his best. Then Bringin' It All Back Home, Freewheelin', Highway 61 Revisited, Another Side of Bob Dylan and Times They Are A-Changin'. Desire, John Wesley Harding, Nashville Skyline, Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid and Street Legal are good too. |
Blood on the Tracks is his best electirc, IMO. So ****ing scathing, emotional, regretful, reflective, etc.
|
There aren't many more bitter songs than Idiot Wind. There aren't many more wistful songs than You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go. There aren't many better narratives than Tangled Up in Blue or Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts. There aren't many better albums than Blood on the Tracks.
It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) is his best song though. That track alone lifts Bringin' It All Back Home to his 3rd best album for me (even though the rest of it's great too). |

123 Or the bootleg album with Johnny Cash |
I think I'm the only person in the world who thinks [i]Blonde on Blonde[/i] is totally overrated.
My favorite is [i]Freewheelin'[/i], though [i]Highway 61[/i] gets mad props for inckuding "It Takes a Lot to Laugh...", which is my current favorite Bob Dylan song. I think [i]The Times They Are a-Changin'[/i] is my second favorite. [i]Blood on the Tracks[/i] is excellent, but I think Dylan's best bitter "break-up" song is, without a doubt, "Don't Think Twice". |
Blonde on Blonde does have some filler with the more standard bluesy numbers but it also has tracks like Visions of Johanna, I Want You, Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands, Just Like a Woman and Stuck Inside of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again that more than make up for it.
Positively 4th Street is another great bitter song. |

Blood On the Tracks is my favorite Dylan mainly because of Idiot Wind and Tangled Up In Blue. Bringing It All Back Home comes in a close second though.
|
Freewheelin' is probably my all-time favorite Dylan album, but Blood On The Tracks is growing on me.
Bringing It All Back Home is really could too, it has It's Alright Ma, Maggie's Farm, AND Mr. Tambourine Man. |
Blood On The Tracks is a pretty good album.
|
I've been reading the QC archive and listening to pop-punk for a good two hours. It's been lazy and awesome.

WHO'S GONNA PICK YOU UP AND TAKE YOU HOME WITH THEM T[SIZE="3"]o[/SIZE]NIGHT.

I can't decide whether or not I like Lucero.

Don't take pictures of Tim or he'll have to pose and it'll mess up the show.

[/QUOTE] I don't think BoB is that great either. People seem to like it for the spontaneous nature of the recording, but ****, it's not a great record. In other news, if Johnny Cash had ever played Death is Not the End, it'd have been amazing. Leonard Cohen playing it would have been second best. But Nick Cave covering it is good as well. Better than Dylan's at least. |
I am liking where QC is going, and I'm back to being in love with BTMI!
|
I'm always in love with BTMI, at the moment my favourite tracks seem to be Ready, Set, No!! & Old and Unprofessional, but it changes a lot.
|
[QUOTE=Lukeh]I'm always in love with BTMI, at the moment my favourite tracks seem to be Ready, Set, No!! & Old and Unprofessional, but it changes a lot.[/QUOTE]Yeah, right now I'm digging "FREEEEEEE BIIIRRDDD!!!! FRREEEE BIIIRRRDDDD!!!" and "Big Plans of SLeeping In"
|
F[SIZE="2"]uc[/SIZE]k yeah! I just ordered my SLM hoodie.
Sorry DIYers :( |
[QUOTE=ThievesandBastards]Yeah, right now I'm digging "FREEEEEEE BIIIRRDDD!!!! FRREEEE BIIIRRRDDDD!!!" and "Big Plans of SLeeping In"[/QUOTE]
The drumming in "FREEEEEEE BIIIRRDDD!!!! FRREEEE BIIIRRRDDDD!!!" is so good. Oh yeah, I always seem to think of "Big Plans of Sleeping In" and "I'm a Panic Bomb, Baby!" as being the same song, as with the first 2 tracks of that album. I just love that entire album, there isn't really a song on it that I don't like. I'm not so sure if I can sasy the same for their second album, though. As for Bob Dylan albums, The Freewheelin' is definitely my favourite, it seems like he's wise in such a way that is lost in his other stuff. |
[QUOTE=ThievesandBastards]F[SIZE="2"]uc[/SIZE]k yeah! I just ordered my SLM hoodie.
Sorry DIYers :([/QUOTE] I'm sure DIYers will forgive you, decent quality hoodies are difficult/expensive to make, and SLM probably need a bit of money now-a-days anyway. |
I really like the change in quality/tone on the second album. There are some great songs but I don't think it really lives up.
"Congrautlations John on Joining Everytime I Die" is one of my favorite BTMI! songs. |

It's been so long since I read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and On the Campaign Trail I forgot how good Hunter S. Thompson actually is. |
