People like what they like I guess.


Although, I do find myself cringing now and again while browsing through this forum.

I've been wondering the same thing for a very long time.

Some of us just lost are doggone minds and couldn't keep the not so favorable musical tastes under wraps any longer.

And yes it is to each its own, you don't have to agree, admire, or join in. That's just what it is.

If you page back a bit you'll even find a Sun Ra thread.

Speaking of McCoy Tyner, outside of his sideman stints with John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Elvin Jones, one solo album sticks out in my mind.

Fly With The Wind...



...was a release that was generally hated by critics and purists because of the string orchestrations. To me it just showed a more lyrical McCoy along with his usual straight-ahead "power and glory" style. All the left hand explosions and waterfall runs are there, they just happen to be accompanied by strings at times.

I can start a Goldfrapp thread. That's quality music, isn't it?

because Duran Duran is a real band who all play their own instruments and have been kicking ass with great muisc for over 23 years and have an excellent single out "Sunrise"

would it make u feel better if we started a thread about concocting up a rehab plan for Whitney Houston so that we can get real singers on Billboard again?

or how about if we started a thread about how to make George Michael straight.

Exactly, it ain't gonna happen!!!!

Tell me about it dude - my Kylie Minogue (sp?) thread blew UP & I don't even like the broad But everything else sinks.

I think people claim a distaste for pop but secretly love it, it always seems to win somehow

Anyway, as far as Jill I've been working double shifts & still haven't picked that mutha up. Otherwise I'd be weighing in. I can't wait to hear it!

That Kylie thread was monstrous.

I like Jill Scoot. In fact, I saw her at a smaller club in Amsterdam a few years back and she just blew me away with that voice of hers.

Sometimes you want a big hefty plate full of mashed potatos. Sometimes you just want to chew bubble-gum. It's as simple as that. There's room for everything.

Supernova said:

Yup. I don't even own any of her albums, but she was amazing live.

minneapolisgenius said:

You didn't notice how you spelled her name, didja?

Supernova said:

Apparently not.

minneapolisgenius said:

Aparently she performed recently in SF & my punk ass missed it After that I went to ticketmaster or whatever it's called & signed up for the concert alerts for everyone I like I ain't missin her again, or another Meshell show either!

I had a detailed thread on my favorite wacky broad Courtney Love that I at least thought would get flamers but nada happened with it. I at least thought there'd be way more to discuss about her then that dumb broad Britney Spears but her boards seem to garner more interest.
