Big Wheel Posted April 23, 2006 Report Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) Dug up this thread to mention that I finally got the Zeppelin DVD set last weekend and have been watching it to get me going on the way to work in the mornings. I'm liking the acoustic material at Earl's Court much more than I expected - the version of Bron Y Aur Stomp grooves real nice and hasn't failed to put a smile on my face as I watch. BTW, I think it's hilarious that nobody at the time commented on the addition to Mnytime's canon of whoppers above. Edited April 23, 2006 by Big Wheel Quote
DTMX Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 Aaah, gotta love the Stooges, AC/DC, Sex Pistols, Ramones, Motorhead. Rock is best when it's dumb. It doesn't get much dumber than Alabama Thunderpussy - currently in heavy rotation on my car stereo. Pistols and Motorhead are good commuting music as well. Quote

I tried that, but I kept running the other drivers off the road. Quote

Dave James Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 The Pixies. Some pretty good, creative stuff going on there once you get beyond the "in your face-ness" of their music. I will say, though, that the one everyone seems to think is the group's best effort (Surfer Rosa) I find the least attractive of the bunch. Up over and out. Quote

Although, I really really really love Surfer Rosa, too, which was my intro to the band, and a constant listen for 17 or 18 years. Quote
ep1str0phy Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 I'll voice the minority opinion and express my unyielding devotion to Trompe Le Monde and Bossanova. That latter set is straight-up hard-noir post-punk. It's like doomsurf. Quote
.:.impossible Posted April 25, 2006 Report Posted April 25, 2006 I'm going to throw Blind Melon into the mix, since I've been listening to a live CD that my wife brought home a few days ago. This band really had something in Shannon Hoon. I can only wonder what their music would have sounded like into the 21st century if he wasn't such a stupid asshole. Yeah, I'm bitter. Quote
