Sneakeater Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Speaking of, I've got to say that Merle Haggard is so awesomely great it's hard to fathom how great he is. If only he'd gotten past his false consciousness and turned Marxist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backyardchef Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Arthur Doyle, "Alabama Feeling" "The way Doyle and Stephens move from splayed torrents of rapid-fire notes to long, drawn-out, revenant moans, gasping for air while tones intermingle and cross-cut in the air, makes for some of the most thrilling free playing of its time." - John Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted August 27, 2024 Share Posted August 27, 2024 Yes I saw that. But I have to be honest. Oasis, when they were much younger, were a boring live act. Good songs, but absolutely static and charisma-free on stage. Only excitement is going to come from an audience going crazy. Same reaction I remember having to Wilco. I could listen to the songs at home and find a plastic cup of warm beer too. There are other bands I wouldn’t say this about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell101 Posted August 28, 2024 Author Share Posted August 28, 2024 Interesting as I feel Wilco live is a whole different experience. Except when I saw them play one of their albums in its entirety note for note. Tweedy has become quite engaging with the audience. And I have a soft spot for them due to what they did at Jazzfest years ago. They were headlining one of the main stages and a thunderstorm came thru when they started. Fest was shut down after one song. The storm cleared and later that night they got hold of a generator and played 90 minutes in a park for free.

mongo Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 one of the best shows i've ever seen was wilco in los angeles (at the el rey maybe?) right after being there came out. they pretty much tore it down and rebuilt it live as a loud, almost punk rock album. the whole show was an extended out of body experience.

Wilfrid Posted November 24, 2024 Share Posted November 24, 2024 Anyone else get this? YouTube today offered me unsolicited, customized playlists based on what I had listened to over the past year. Unsurprisingly most of it was Hinds. Second place Mamas and the Papas, but of course only two songs, Creeque Alley and California Dreaming. Then there are guest appearances by The Ramones, the Pistols, Simon & Garfunkel and anything by Glenn Campbell with a guitar solo. A very fair summation. Also I do listen to a lot of jazz, experimental music, older African, reggae and so on - but indeed, not on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloviatrix Posted December 13, 2024 Share Posted December 13, 2024 Spouse pulled out an old cassette from the '80s of The Kinks that's actually still in tact. My brother introduced me to Kinks when I was about 4 so it brings back lots of memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
