greasykitchen Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 QUOTE (Mystic Slipperman @ Aug 24 2008, 04:30 PM) Here's my random one for today: The Band's song "It Makes No Difference" (especially the Last Waltz version) is one of the most devastatingly sad and beautiful songs ever put to tape. I miss Rick Danko. Totally agree, although the Last Waltz film and album version are slightly different - in the film it is edited slightly and sped up (as with the whole film). The Band don't get enough recognition these days. So few people have heard of them compared with other big name bands of the same era. and 'Stage Fright' is an underrated Band album On another note, I need to listen to all the CDs/LPs my housemate has lend me - lots of cool stuff from Gary Wilson to Gillian Welch to Robyn Hitchcock to John Renbourn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArrowSnake Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) "King Harvest (has surely come)" by The Band is one of the greatest songs ever recorded! Richard Manuel's voice gives me goosebumps. I love the way the bass, organ and drums sound, it all sounds so warm... Robbie Robertson's guitar solo at the end of the song is pure genius... it's not how many notes you play, it's how you play them! Oh, and I agree with Mystic Slipperman, "It Makes No Difference" is a beautiful song! Edited August 26, 2008 by ArrowSnake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystic Slipperman Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Very cool to see more fans of The Band. Today's random thought... Anyone who thinks that The Beach Boys' music was just lightweight fluff about cars, surfing, and girls needs to hear the song "Surf's Up". It just might change your mind.... it certainly changed mine. It's an amazing piece of music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which should I start with? Who's Next Quadrophenia Tommy Since I got the same list (almost) from two members, that'll be how I get it. I just wish I had more money so I could buy one of these, a PF album, and a Yes album or two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, until recently the only album I was really familiar with was In the Court of the Crimson King. I used to play Lizard and Starless and Bible Black sometimes, but they just kinda bounced off my skull. Right now I'm in love with the Belew/Bruford/Fripp/Levin lineup. These guys are just blowing my mind. Edit: also, what Did Lee Squat said. Edited August 27, 2008 by edgyspice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetaxe&saw Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Republic of Loose are the best Irish band I've heard in years. They sh*t from a great height all over Bono and his band of big jessies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you love this lineup, you NEED to get Absent Lovers: Live in Montreal. It's the last show that lineup ever gave...end of the "Three of a Perfect Pair" tour, and it is a monster. Officially released live album, better yet!!! Also.....you need Red. The other (IMO) perfect Crimson album... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Stand Still seems to get more poignant for me every year. The lyrics are wonderful. HYF is becoming my favorite Rush album once again....it's been Perm Waves for a while, but they shift, ya know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
