And i don't like Dire Straits
Apart from that i like it

Keep #6,7,9,14 and throw the rest away.

Nonsense , The Cure , Thin Lizzy and Metallica are !

so nobody has ever heard of Television?

I haven't but i'm sure somebody must have ; the knowledge some here have concerning music is overwhelming
I guess they just haven't seen this thread yet

of course.

So many people have raved about Marquee Moon. Richard Hell was also in Television for a while.



Not a big fan of this song or album. Why Can't I Be You is a great song. Disintegration is so far beyond this entire album.


Does the song really need to be 10 minutes long. and that's sort of my problem with Television. They have the groove, but it's too glossy, and not enough anx like The New York Dolls or The Patti Smith Group and certainly not as eclectic as the Talking Heads.


Average IMO. I never listen to Jailbreak anymore. Thunder and Lightning is by far the best Thin Lizzy album.



Cliff Burton tune definately...when Metallica cared about making a metal album...Ride The Lightning is their best album and Call of Ktulu is a superior
instrumental. I would love to start a BEST METAL INSTRUMENTAL THREAD, but this board isn't very metal.



This tune gives me a headache.


Never heard this version.



Hey Dewdre I talked about this song in my last thread. http://www.prince.org/msg/8/157592




I'm a toadies fam, this band fucking rules and is seriously underrated. Hardly anyone on this board likes them.

The thing is when I added Dire Straits, Thin Lizzy and the Star Spangled Banner it was turning into your average guitar comp, I may as well had thrown in Stairway and Free Bird. But it's something about Thin Lizzy's tone, I had to throw in The Boys Are Back, such a classic song. Lately I have been really craving the raw set up,just drums bass and guitar.

Anybody heard of The Fucking Champs? lilgish if you like Metal instrumentals I got a feeling you would love this band.

never heard of em? on amazon I read they sound like Kyuss? U like Kyuss and their highly "praised" album Sky Valley?

from what I hear at amazon, they don't move me, more like old Kreator. Not bad, and thats just snippets.

lilgish said:

I never really got into Kyuss. Something about the fucking champs sounds pure, you should check out the album IV

I love that name...The Fucking Champs

I can only imagine asking for a store to order it for me.

lilgish said:

yeah it's a indie band, think about the freedom you have to even name your band when it's indie, btw I named the comp "guitar" after a Sonny Sharrock album.
