[QUOTE=Zebra]Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One

Excellent album, but not their best.[/QUOTE]

what is their best? I love that one, but ive not heard any others.

[QUOTE=Bukowski]Frank Zappa - The Best Band You Never Heard in Your Life

The reggae/jazz cover of Stairway to Heaven is sooo cool. There's some great songs covered on this live album, and all are entertaining and well done.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's a cool album. There are actually 5 discs from just that tour (which was actually cut short, too!). You should check out [I]Broadway the Hard Way[/I] and [I]Make a Jazz Noise Here[/I] for more classic Zappa material mixed with newer 80s stuff played by one of his greatest larger ensembles.

hah, i'm actually downloading Make a Jazz Noise Here on soulseek right now, as well as one called Chungas Revenge. I'll check out Broadway the Hard Way as well.

btw, i have a question, and i think you'll know so here goes. I was looking on slsk for the album Lumpy Gravy yesterday, but I got some weird results. Does the album only have 2 songs?

Yes, it's a single piece in two parts. There are 22 "indexes," 12 in the first part and 10 in the second, but they are not on separate tracks.

If you like [I]We're Only In It For the Money[/I]'s more adventurous moments, you'll love [I]Lumpy Gravy[/I]

asymm 04-22-2006 04:22 PM

Wilderness - [i]Vessel States[/i]
Lou Reed - [i]Berlin[/i]

Bukowski 04-22-2006 04:24 PM

Thank you. The album sounds interesting, I'll definitely get it.

Glitterati 04-22-2006 08:37 PM

X - Los Angeles

The title track, as well as Your Phone's Off The Hook.....are awesome. I'm really getting into X lately.

I Was A Kaleidoscope 04-22-2006 08:43 PM

Elf Power - Back To The Web (this is really good.)
Ghostface Killah - Fishscale

YDload 04-22-2006 11:58 PM

Well you're the one who said an album of theirs sucks! That's a pretty bad rap to me :-/

Anyway Built To Spill sure is neat.

br3ad_man 04-23-2006 12:18 AM

I like [i]Transatlanticism[/i] the best. It just seems to have the funnest songwriting.

I got some Indian Summer live recordings earlier today and I'm looking forward to hearing them a bit later. They sound like a good band.

pixiesfanyo 04-23-2006 12:33 AM

Indian Summer kind of sucks.

Besides, Angry Son which basically makes them an okay band because it's that good of a song.

pixiesfanyo 04-23-2006 01:08 AM

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars]Every Indian Summer song is good. "Angry Son" is phenomenal.[/QUOTE]

False.

Every song by Kayo Dot is good though.

ATM 04-23-2006 01:21 AM

Eagles of Death Metal to' it up tonight.

YDload 04-23-2006 01:22 AM

I don't think there are any bands where every song of theirs is phenomenal. Assuming they have a minimum of, say, twenty-five songs? Is it possible?

[QUOTE=YDload]I don't think there are any bands where every song of theirs is phenomenal. Assuming they have a minimum of, say, twenty-five songs? Is it possible?[/QUOTE]

Yes,

Happymeal 04-23-2006 09:54 AM

Prince Paul - [I]Itstrumental[/I]

What a guy.

Iron Bug 04-23-2006 09:58 AM

I'm listening to Band Of Horses, I like it a lot.

JonM 04-23-2006 10:01 AM

I'm going to revisit the old Common Sense records, because the new one tainted my perception of the old ones.

ATM 04-23-2006 10:55 AM

Do you have Electric Circus?

I'm still digging Blind Willie McTell.

JonM 04-23-2006 12:18 PM

No, I don't, and I'm going to get it right now. I have [i]Resurrection[/i] and [i]One Day...[/i], and I used to have [i]Like Water For Chocolate[/i] but it seems to have disappeared.

Zappa 04-23-2006 02:24 PM

The The - [I]Mindbomb[/I]

Zebra 04-23-2006 02:47 PM

[QUOTE=Zappa]The The - [I]Mindbomb[/I][/QUOTE]

I saw a The The music video on a Beavis and Butthead once, I don't know why but I just remember it.

Nick Drake - Pink Moon
Andrew Bird - Weather Systems

Glitterati 04-23-2006 04:28 PM

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]
Fall Out Boy - [i]From Under The Cork Tree[/i]
[/QUOTE]

/rubs eyes in disbelief

Anyway, I'm digging Alice Cooper today. Then again, when am I NOT digging Alice Cooper?

XxcheetoxX 04-23-2006 04:35 PM

Mf Doom - [I]Vaudville Villian[/I] Its pretty good, but overrated. The beats are varied and definately not standard rap dance beats. Though the songs drag on sometimes and MF's voice isn't exactly exciting....

Glitterati 04-23-2006 04:36 PM

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]I downloaded [i]Trash[/i] today so yay[/QUOTE]

Produced by Desmond Child, who also produced Bon Jovi, which I think are one of your gay glam bands
