I'm listening to these right now, a mix I created on my pc:

The VELVET UNDERGROUND ~ "The Black Angel's Death Song" "I'm Waiting For The Man" and "I'll Be Your Mirror." 
MC5 ~ "Call Me Animal," "High School,"  "Teenage Lust," and other selections from BACK IN THE USA
THE STOOGES ~ "Loose" and "Dirt" from FUN HOUSE plus more and selections from their first including "I Wanna Be Your Dog"  and "1969."
THE NEW YORK DOLLS: "Lonely Planet Boy," "Frankenstein" "Personality Crisis" and "Private World"
and selections by THE SHAGGS, FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS and CAPTAIN BEEFHEART. 

What have you been listening to? 

Lately, mostly Webb Wilder
I tend to download a lot of cheesey soundtracks from http://www.eccentric-cinema.com/ & I recently found a fan page with mp3s of Mothra's chants & songs

I listen to alot of soundtracks also, lately TAXI DRIVER and other tidbits like one done by the LOVIN' SPOONFUL for Francis Ford Coppola's very early film YOU'RE A BIG BOY NOW.  The instrumental track is "Lonely (Amy's Theme)".

The Arrogant Sons Of b***hes - Self Titled Album - It's pretty much a collected works from TASOB covering most of their stuff from 1998-2004.  Great punk-ska with some hardcore influences.


(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/78107.jpg)

Bane - Give Blood - Great hardcore album from Bane.  Ante Up is one of my favorite tracks.  Really gets me going.


(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/BadReligionHowCouldHellBeAnyWorse.jpg/200px-BadReligionHowCouldHellBeAnyWorse.jpg)

Bad Religion - How Could Hell Be Any Worse? - The best album to ever be released by BR.  It's a collection of their early stuff and it's some of the best punk to ever be recorded.

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cb/Streetlight_Manifesto_-_Everything_Goes_Numb.jpg/200px-Streetlight_Manifesto_-_Everything_Goes_Numb.jpg)

Streetlight Manifesto - Everything Goes Numb - Debut album from Streetlight Manifesto.  Absolutely amazing ska-punk.  I see these guys at a regional House Of Blues back in November and they were absolutely amazing.  Well worth listening to.

(http://graphics.ink19.com/issues/august1999/covers/88_fingers_louie.jpeg)

88 Fingers Louie - Back On The Streets - The best album 88 Fingers put out.  Used to listen to this thing religiously back in high school.  Just recently rediscovered it while ripping a bunch of old cds to my computer.  Still holds up extremely well.

(http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0000248MN.02.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)

The Descendents - Everything Sucks - I think it's safe to say I love 90s punk. 

Fairly regularly listening to THE RAMONES: ROCKET TO RUSSIA and RAMONES. Favourite tunes: "Rockaway Beach" and "Sheena is A Punk Rocker" on ROCKET TO RUSSIA and "Chainsaw" and "Blitzkreig Bop" on RAMONES.  I also love those classic tunes they do covers off on these two albums. When I'm not listening to that, I usually am playing THE CLASH's LONDON CALLING.

Just uploaded LONDON CALLING; great record. 

The Descendents, 88 Fingers, Bad Religion, interesting selections . . .

Well, my tastes are out of sync with most of you:

Modest Mouse - We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank
Harry Nilsson - Everybody's Talkin': The Very Best of...

Some mix tapes of stuff I taped off Internet and regular radio. Mixups of old psychdelic groups (Tim Buckley, Procol Harum, Love, etc.), Celtic and Irish groups (The Tossers, The Saw Doctors, Flogging Molly, etc.), Some old time radio (Jack Benny, Fred Allen, Groucho Marx), and some standup comedy (Lewis Black, Mitch Hedburg, Joe Rogan). Also the odd song or DJ talk from Little Steven's Underground Garage and Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour. Throw in the occasional Tool, Rage Against the Machine, or 90s rock/grunge/alternative tune that brings back memories - good or bad.

Ah the joys of having a good tough reliable car with a lousy radio and only a tape player.

I tried a CD kit, bought a cheap one that had lousy output (only played through one side) took it back. Might try another one that plays MP3s & WMAs or just get a full-on MP3 player since I want to load up on those cheap Old Time radio show discs that were being talked about in another topic. Good for the longer drives I'm starting to make again.

Added a "u" to Groucho. "Grocho Marx" might be a Mexican Groucho impersonator.

Ah!  Harry Nillsson is not out-of-sync with me . . . love everything he's done particularly MIDNIGHT COWBOY selections and those easy 70s singer/songwriter hits! 

I've been listening to LOVE's Forever Changes alot lately and love the idea of a Jack Benny Groucho Marx mix! 

As for the rest, Ah Youth!   :drink:

I like topics like this, they're always fun, and I get to hear about stuff I wouldn't elsewise.

Yuki Kajiura - "Your Place", Madlax OST 2. On the anime music station on AOL Radio.

I recently picked up this CD...

(http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/2227/547largesh7.jpg) (http://imageshack.us)

Old school KISS is the bomb!
All of the songs on it are from the 70's when they were at their peak.

I love to crank Strutter, Love Gun or Detroit Rock City in my car.
Good drivin' music!

(http://a786.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/00714/58/74/714254785_l.jpg)

Isaac, is that Cd any good? I have Hank III's Rising Outlaw disc and enjoy it. What can you tell me about the last track or is it on a disc of it's own?

Right now, I'm trying to listen to a Terry Thomas/Peter Sellers Movie I rented, Carlton Browne of the F.O., and not doing a very good job of it, may have to get it again.

Musically, I've been listening to Warren Zevon's Stand In the Fire disc. Excellent live album, some great versions of old favorites. Also a 2 disc compilation of Gong, called Magick Invocations. A mixed bag but a few tracks stand out.

(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/138995.jpg)

Vocals are kind of weird. Modern pop with edge with a hardcore feel. Like the old 77 punk but modern.Saw them live too. Great stuff

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/41K2VGXCFHL._SS500_.jpg)

(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/104664.gif)

Great NYHC (New York Hardcore) with a fast punk feel. It escapes all that tough guy B.S. and more old school hardcore. These guy played their last show after being around for 10 years.

The Kinks at the Fillmore West 1970. A disc loaned to me by a cool guy at work. Thanks.

I am trying to ignore the voices in my head, don't really have time for a murderous rampage at the moment.

You ought to pick up the 2 disc KISS gold compilation.  It covers all of their 70's output and I think it goes up to The Elder.

I'm listening right now to FOREIGNER "Complete Greatest Hits".

Yes, I happen to like Foreigner, though I like their rocking stuff best.   :cheers:

The Best of Godzilla 1954 - 1975.

Singing along with the "Mothra" song on that CD can brighten my entire day.  :thumbup:

Some sweepers & ads (or whatever they call 'em) I made for WRIR.

I've been doing it since last summer, but I haven't really gotten around to listening to myself until today.

I really need to take it easy on the volume. I sure hope they don't hear me drool over the air.

(http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l79/RCMerchant/untitled-6.jpg)

 ( I have no idea what this is...but I found it on the computer...and it was weird...)

 Myself...I'm mellowing out in my years...and I still love the old school Stones....

(http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l79/RCMerchant/untitled-7.jpg)

Some sucky ELO on Alice Cooper's show ("Mr. Blue Sky"), since I'm too lazy to check the other stations and my dial up connection is acting slow lately so internet radio isn't worth the aggrevation right now.

The Damned-I Feel Alright

The Exploited- "Let's Start a War.... Said Maggie One Day" LP.  Great old-school Brit Punk.  Raw and thrashy, yet melodic and catchy as hell.

The Buck Pets - Mercurotones (1989)

I love it when Michael Miracle's running late for his shift (he's a DJ, I'm a NewsTalk), so I can subject the city to something notoriously irritating.

Today, it was Hunny Hunny by Book of Love

Still keeping my ear to the ground, but typically only finding older things worth listening to:
HOOVERPHONIC Blue Wonder Power Milk
CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and the MAGIC BAND: Safe As Milk
Time Life Street Corner Serenades
ENNIO MORRICONE Film Music Vol. 1
BEBEL GILBERTO Tanto Tempo
THE SPECIALS

Here are the following CD's that I've listened to so far at work today:

1) Dimmu Borgir    "In Sorte Diaboli"
2) Sade    "The Best of Sade"
3-4) Ratt    "Dancing Undercover"  & "Reach for the Sky"
5) Megadeth   "United Abominations"
6) The Motels  "20th Century Masters"

(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/141027.gif)

Saw them live and picked up their CD. Great Hardcore Punk.

(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/129732.jpg)

This is a weird one. A all girl band that sounds like The Slits with a 80s hardcore band. Love it.

Torgo, how is Megadeths "United Abominations"? I was thinking about picking it up.

Skaboi, Great seleaction their.The Arrogant Sons Of b***hes are actually playing here in a a month or two.

I am listening to:

Laibach - Life is Life

[youtube=425,350]http://youtube.com/watch?v=YvRhOpqZO7I

They are a German band that I heard a long time ago, around ten.  I saw them on the Public Bradcasting Channel.  Thanks to Youtube, I found the group.  Not bad music.

John

Haven't thought about THE MOTELS in many years; I used to have their album with "Suddenly Last Summer" on it (I can remember the silly video...)   :thumbup:

MIKA MIKO?  Listened to samples at Amazon... anyone interested:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/recsradio/radio/B000FUF83Y/ref=pd_krex_listen_dp_img/102-8935206-2998565?ie=UTF8&refTagSuffix=dp_img

And I'm looking forward to seeing  . . . TONY BENNETT !  He will be here in 2 months (just found out today).  Guess I'm slowing down.  Skipped the chance to see GRAHAM PARKER, practically next door, but cannot miss Tony Bennett.  :wink:

I give United Abominations an 8 out of 10.

I don't think it's as strong of an album as The System Has Failed (which I gave a 9) and it's not a return to their thrash days like Mustaine/the press was saying.  The guitars have more of a thrash tone to them, but overall it's more of the style he's been doing the last couple of albums.

The really unnecessary thing on it is the pointless remake of A Tout Le Monde with that Scabbia female singer from the awful band (at least IMO) Lacuna Coil.  The original version on Youthanasia was great as is. 

I picked this up on a whim a few days back for only 5 bucks.  I was a fan of them growing up and this has all of their hits and a few album cuts.   All of the tracks are beautifully remastered as well.   


Tony Bennett is awesome. The man can sing anything and sing with anyone and it works.

One of the great things about NOW is how easy we've all become about what we listen to.  30 years ago, it was a big deal if you listened to Rock (of several distinct varieties) or Disco (at the time, unfairly regarded by the Rock camp I belonged to as one variety: horrible).  Then, I secrectly loved TAVARES, BEE GEES, KC and the SUNSHINE BAND, NOW, I listen to both . . . but not much to either these days as I'm into fringe Rock right NOW, meaning acts that didn't sell large numbers of records then(STOOGES, VELVET UNDERGROUND, NEW YORK DOLLS, RAMONES, CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, etc.) plus all the once-called "long hair" stuff I've always loved, Ravel, Mahler, Louis Armstrong, Bix Beiderbecke, Roxy Music . . .

This week im listening to a Greek oriental rebetica cd i got out of the libary, along with the complete works of william shatner, some rainer maria, and some bollywood soundtraks

The Freeze  -"Misery Loves Company" CD

ARUM RAE
TOO YOUNG TO SING THE BLUES (2006)

http://www.myspace.com/arumrae

http://www.arumrae.com/

For a period of about 8 months I had my iPod filled with nothing but Rancid, Transplants, Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards and Operation Ivy. I've gradually injected other stuff into it in the last 6 months or so, mainly Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly, Guitar Wolf, Balzac, classic Misfits, and a few choice selections from Rob/White Zombie, especially Superbeast, Super Charger Heaven, Dragula, and the oddly entertaining track he did with Drowning Pool for the Daredevil soundtrack.

Last CD I picked up was the Tim Armstrong side project disc "A Poet's Life". Would've been happier to spend a few dollars less on it if I could've gotten it without the DVD...

(http://www.interpunk.com/itemimages2/146666.gif)

French Melodic Hardcore sung in French (duh) and by a women. Great vocals and solid stuff. Lyric sheet does have the English words to the songs.

Great pick thier with The Freeze, Ghoul. Saw them live a couple of years ago.

As a matter of fact, with the film I AM LEGEND coming later this year(gravely different from the book, of course!  :hatred: ), I've been revisiting the novella and it's film versions...so right now, I've got the score from THE OMEGA MAN in heavy rotation on the playlist.

(http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/1426/omegamancdgn4.jpg)

This is Ron Grainer(Dr Who, The Prisoner) at his...well...Grainiest!

Fabulous, funky and friggin 70s!  While common sense would say that this musical approach would undermine the whole drama of the stoy, with THE OMEGA MAN, it's just the opposite...the film is elevated to a higher plane by Grainer stylings complete with a large lush orchestra at his disposal.  Fans of his music from The Prisoner, will find alot of similarly catchy riffs.

I've uploaded the theme and a cue entitled "Brother Zachary Makes His Move"  :buggedout: to quicksharing, here's the link....THE OMEGA MAN cues at Quicksharing (http://s2.quicksharing.com/v/6508992/OMEGA_MAN.zip.html) .

It's an 11 mb zip file so it shouldn't take too long...Note:if this is frowned upon here at the forum, moderators please feel free to edit the post.

Otherwise, enjoy and remember...The last man on earth IS NOT ALONE!  :tongueout:

Didn't recognize even the genre until I got to the Rob Zombie.  Yeah, Dragula is a great song... and Hellbilly Deluxe is one noisy album, indeed.

The Vrenna "Bodies" remix  (Drowning Pool) is great shooter music, too.  =)

Currently listening to:  Mixed Emotions, by the Stones.

And now I'm listening to Enno Morricone's rejected score for What Dreams May Come?.

It's pretty much all punk, ska or Japanese garage rock in one form or another (I'm not sure of the subgenre deviations beyond that, as I try to stick to basics if possible) with Zombie being about the only metal I really listen to anymore. Yeah, I know, Zombie's considered "commercial sell-out" by most die hard metalheads, but since I never claimed to be as such, I'm sure I can be forgiven.  :teddyr: Super Charger Heaven is one of the greatest f*cking tracks of all time and the re-mix from "Super Sexy Swingin' Sounds" is one of the few re-mix tracks I can actually enjoy. Wicked. \m/

So these guys are obviously republicans from vermont, right?! HAHAHA

Now I'm listening to That's the Truth by bluesman Bugs Henderson.  Right now he's doing a funked-up version of "Johnny B. Goode."

I'm listening to Coleman Hawkins" "Body And Soul" Supertramp "Gone Hollywood" Roxy Music "Just Like You" and Bebel Gilberto "Samba De Bencao"

I made a playlist off the computer a little while back...this is what I put on it...
.X-RAY SPEX-'Oh Bondage! Up Yours! (Love her voice! And that sax! WOW!)
.The MUMMYS-You Gotta Fight to Live on the Planet of the Apes ( "Apes with orange hair-give me dirty looks!")
.BOBBY WOMACK-Across 110th Street-(Great song...all around!)
.BOBBY McFADDEN-I'm a Mummy ( Goofy Beat/novelty song from the early 60's)
.SWEET-Ballroom Blitz (C'mon! I'ts GOOD! REALLY!)
.DEAD KENNEDYS-California Uber Alles ( Classic DK's)
.the RAMONES-Pet Sematary (The song is much better than the movie...though I liked the movie ok...)
.the ROLLING STONES-Gimme Shelter ( one of my favorite Stones songs)
.JIMI HENDRIX-Fire (Gotta have Jimi!)
.THIN LIZZY-the Boys Are Back in Town (makes me feel 16 and cool!)
.SUICIDAL TENDENCIES-Possessed ( Love the beat! For a song about being insane...it's really quite upbeat!)
.the BEATLES-Helter Skelter (Not a big Beatles fan...but this song ROCKS!)
.MOTORHEAD-Ace of Spades (wanted 'Rock and Roll'...but couldn't find it! This is THE Motorhead song,of course)
.IGGY AND the STOOGES-Search and Destroy ( Tried to fnd "1969"...but still ,I can listen to this every day!)
.WHITE ZOMBIE-Thunderkiss '65 (Favorite Zombie tune!)

Great choice! After seeing you list it, I immediately fired it up in iTunes.

Give me your email address, it's my pleasure to send you "1969" one of the most important records that year, but, completely overlooked then.  I also love "Search And Destroy" off of RAW POWER.

Nice mix. 

Oh yes, Jimi Hendryx, it's all mostly great, but I'm fond of Electric Ladyland and tracks like "Crosstown Traffic" and "Voodoo Child" plus later stuff like "Freedom"
I wonder if your interest in "Helter Skelter" isn't Vincent Bugliosi again?   :teddyr:  I'm sure you know it's by Paul and it's a child's slide in the UK...certainly one of the greatest BEATLES rockers. 

SWEET was great...they also did "Fox On The Run" which was as big a hit and on the heels of "Ballroom Blitz" in 1975. 

One of the most interesting things about THE DEAD KENNEDYS was their album artwork...Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables being a case in point... "California Uber Alles" is off that one. 

"The Boys Are Back in Town" makes you feel 16?  You were 16 then (1976)?

 Cool!My E-mail is fryechicken @ yahoo.com!
 Electric LadyLand is also my favorite Jimi album...but I like most ALL of his songs!
As for Helter Skelter...I do have a strange fasination for the Manson case,but as far as the song HELTER SKELTER goes,it's just a GREAT rocker,along the lines of BACK in the USSR,which is another of my favorite songs by the Beatles. I really don't care for alot of their more psychadelic tunes...I like their very early work,pre '65,much more as a rule.
 the Dead Kennedys always had interesting collage work done by Winston Smith! I usta have the poster from Freash Fruit hanging up on my wall! Still have the book that came in the Plastic Surgery Disasters LP lying around here somewheres....LOVE his work!
Actually,I was 14 in '76... (two  years later,  thanks to the magic of 8-tracks,we could jam on Thin Lizzy in our beat up cars while crusing the dirtroads of backwater Michigan...drinking beer and feeling like we would never die. Ahh. Now I'm amazed I didn't.

I wonder....whatever happened to SWEET? They just seemed to blink on...then they were gone....?

  [youtube=425,350] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrBDivsSe3k  ...Watching the video,seems like they were fans of Bowies Ziggy Srardust ...

"1969" is on its way to your inbox...
I'm just a little older than you. 
SWEET was another of those "Glam rock" bands aka "Glitter rock" that Punk owed not a small debt to.   Nice to see their old video!

FRANK ZAPPA  "Sheik Yerbouti"

(http://powerlineblog.com/archives/sy.jpg)

 Got it! Added! THANX!
 I also added tonight...
.ENRICO MORRICONE-the Good,the Bad,and the Ugly(main Title)  :cheers:
.FLATT AND SCRUGGS-Foggy Mountain Breakdown (makes me  wanna drive fast and rob banks!)  :drink:
.AEROSMITH-Nobody's Fault ( the BEST Aerosmith song ever)
.BOB DYLAN-Lay Lady Lay ( Sentimental reasons)
PARLIMENT-Flashlight ( Funky!)
.ALICE COOPER-Ballad of Dwight Frye (Because I am insane.)  :twirl:
.GOBLIN-Demons Theme ( cuz it's cool and spooky)  :buggedout:
.and if I feel like getting some aggresion out....
BLACK FLAG-Rise Above
.SLAYER-Angel of DEATH   :hot:

Right this minute? Alice Cooper-the Ballad of Dwight Frye...... :twirl:

As I'm typing I'm listening to Jupiter from John Coltrane's Interstellar Space.  This album is pretty crazy.

(http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/31XQVVVDKML._AA240_.jpg)

I went to the local record store earlier and on impule I bought a used copy of The Polite Force by Egg.  It's some slightly obscure early 70's prog stuff.  I listened to some of it on the way home and so far it's pretty decent I s'pose.  The cover is cool:

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/617K4XPBCKL._AA240_.jpg)

And now I'm listening to the film score from Theatre of Blood.

(http://www.tachyon-city.com/wp-content/theaterofblood.jpg)

I listen to a lot of soundtracks.

I'm rocking out to the new White Stripes album, Icky Thump...Goofy name, great album.  It's a return to form for Jack and Meg.  Get Behind Me Satan kinda sucked because they experimented with a bunch of instruments.  Icky Thump is all guitar and drums!  FAN-tastic.

I'm also listening to the Ad-Rock (from the Beastie Boys) produced new Bad Brains album Build A Nation.  There's only a couple of reggae songs on it.  The rest is crunchy, thrashy punk!  I love it when bands get back to what made them famous in the first place.  I'm hoping the Smashing Pumpkins can do the same thing when their new album come out!

Now I'm listening to Phil Collins' But Seriously.  And I'll even admit it.

Right this second? KILLDOZER-"Hi There!"  :buggedout:

And now I'm listening to songs from The Muppet Movie.

Some of the best music for running, for me, is that which  a) if you listen to it, it MUST be played as loud as the device can play it, and b) is physically painful to hear at said volume.  Therefore, the pain of the music replaces the pain of running harder and faster.  =)   In that regard, the Zombie tracks you mention are great running music.

Sadly Zap, I know exactly what you mean by that, as applying that method to driving helped get my license suspended several years ago when I received five speeding tickets within a two year span. The points have long since expired since this was something like 5 years ago, but I still owe something like $300 for the last one before I can get my license cleared again. Good thing I live in a place where public transport is a way of life, otherwise I'd never be able to listen to Zombie or most of the rest of my CD collection when getting from point A to point B anymore.  :wink:

Now I'm listening to Rena Jones' Driftwood album, mostly New Age instrumentals with a techno veneer.

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/61C9QM8TWCL._AA240_.jpg)

Some great choices there, particularly like ENNIO Morricone who I've been listening to lately also.  PARLIAMENT?  We are definitely in a similar vibe. 

I'm not listening to any classics at the moment (unless you count some music from the 90's a classic) but I'd say Linkin Park (which a lot of people hate, I know) Ra, Three doors down, Green day, SUM 41, System of a down and death cab for cutie.

I definitely count BECK's ODELAY as a classic from the 90s!   You also have some great bands listed! 

SLAYER  "Christ Illusion".

I'm going follow that up with Testament "The Gathering."

"The Wheel Man" by Watermelon Slim and the Workers. A good crossover of Delta and Chicago blues.

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/51%2B3upybf-L._AA240_.jpg)

(Badmovies.org is now officially my music blog!)

I've been jamming to "In the Deep" - my two favorite CD's are Hard Worship and Floored.


(Yes, they're a Christian rock band!)

And now I'm listening to local a capella group Voice Male sing "Celebration."

my chemical romance - Erly sunset over monroeville


fun fack: its a tribute to the dawn of the dead movie   :smile:

The Misfits, stuff from the newer albums "Famous Monsters"  (love "Dust to Dust", "Crawling Eye", "Saturday Night", "Descending Angel" and "Them") and "American Psycho"  ("Don't Open Till Doomsday" is a top fave but also like "Hate the Living, Love the Dead",  "Day of the Dead" and "Mars Attacks" and also from their classic "Walk Among Us" ("Vampira", "Astro Zombies" and "All Hell Breaks Loose" are faves on that album).

I'm working tomorrow, but the weekend is upon us...I've been listening to Stan Getz /Joachim Gilberto  GETZ/GILBERTO , Coleman Hawkins and Supertramp... RUBY AND THE ROMANTICS "Our Day Will Come" and music from PICNIC

 Ok!!! This is just gettng weird....I just posted a video on my Myspacepage...a couple of day ago...this one,in fact...!!!

          [youtube=425,350] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3RO304GqEs I listen to this in the morning...and I can handle another day of work.

good album. amazing how a band 25 yrs into their career can still sound that powerful. I bought the re-issue of Meshuggah "contradictions Collapse" the other day, been listening to that a fair bit.

Somebody once said that if you eat a live frog for breakfast, the rest of the day will likely be an improvement.

I don't know why I'm thinking of that while I'm listening to Leonard Nimoy before 7am.

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/41GCYVQGNWL._AA240_.jpg)

Every time I'm introduced to someone that I can really get into, I'll fill up my Shuffle with nothing but their music and hypnotize myself with it for days or weeks on end. Current hostage holders are Electric Six with their odd but seductive mix of humor, techno, metal and disco. Think of them as The Darkness or Spinal Tap, only with a more club friendly tempo... not that I myself am club friendly, just making a point. Picked up their two previous outings Señor Smoke and Fire and will no doubt be seeking out their newest, Switzerland, later this week to add to the merriment. "I'm a man, torn between vengeance and fashion".  :bouncegiggle:

Is that clip from GET YOURSELF A COLLEGE GIRL? 

This week, I've been listening to ROXY MUSIC alot. 

XTC    "Black Sea"

"The Sting that's Swing" by neo swing band Big Tubba Mista (http://www.bigtubbamista.com).

I'm listening to Dimmu Borgir's  "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia" at the moment.

[/quote]
Is that clip from GET YOURSELF A COLLEGE GIRL? 


[/quote]

Yes...it is...or rather was...it got cancelled.....

Tell me about this Dimmu Borgir's  "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia"

You mean MYSPACE cancelled it?   :question:

They're a Norwegian Black Metal band.

Actually, the've kind of evolved into more of a symphonic black metal of sorts. I don't listen to much Black Metal but they're excellent.

Gotta love the cover of the old Twisted Sister song. :wink: :teddyr:

I looked them up after your posting; they are highly regarded and apparently exactly as you describe.  I think I will buy "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia;" if I can listen to HOOVERPHONIC, I can listen to DIMMY BORGIR! 

Naw...I meant whoever I swiped it from on youtube had the link pulled..cuz it won't play on the on I posted here.  :bluesad:

 Parliment alot latley!.....[youtube=425,350] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzEJvHE_rEg

Been listen to Gill Scott Heron who was a political singer from early 80's. I didn't agree with everything he said as he was anti-Reagan and I was pro, but I respected his music.

This is a live concert version of B MOVIE ... not as good as the studio version, but still pretty good.

 I picked up a CD of  LA SEXORCISTO:DEVIL MUSIC Vol.1 by WHITE ZOMBIE yesterday

  I saw White Zombie back in 1994,at Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo! Great band!

  [youtube=425,350] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OutQNw9jRYM

GREAT clip!  Thanks for fishing it out.  I loves PARLIAMENT. 

I remember Gil Scott Heron and enjoyed that clip, too, but not sure I agree with you, CHEEZEE, about "Ray-gun," as Heron might have put it. 

You can see in your video posting the influence of FASTER, p***yCAT! KILL! KILL!  I'm not a fan of Rob or White... to me, it's kind of a retread, played out and boring, like his movie HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES.    But, it is a lot of fun . . . the best to you!   :thumbup:

Dimmu Borgir's "singer" doesn't do that annoying high pitched black metal screaching that ruins most black metal.  He actually does a more mid range very lizardman sounding spoken word type thing while occasionally drifting down into a guttural vocal style at times.

but their bass player named Vortex   :teddyr: actually does clean vocal passages for the band and is a most excellent singer.

I would recommend picking up Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia, Death Cult Armageddon and their newest one In Sorte  Diaboli.

More old school fans of them might recommend Enthrone Darkness Triumphant or For All Tid to start out on, but the 3 previous albums I mentioned are the ones in which I think they really struck out and got their own unique style/sound. 

I should also mention that the majority of the time you can actually completely understand the singer as well which is kind of unheard of in most black metal.  They started out singing their albums in Norwegian but on Enthrone Darkness Triumphant, they switched to mostly singing in English.  

I saw White Zombie live back in 1996 in Roanoke, VA (which is where I live as well).

It was pretty good but Rob got out of breath by about the 3rd song and it really took away from their performance. They also were relying very, very heavily on ADATS to fill out their on stage sound.

I thought back in the day that their female bass player Sean Yselut was very pretty in her own unique way. 

At the moment (5:04 p.m on July 17th, EST), I'm jamming out to FRANK ZAPPA "Overnight Sensation / Apostrophe". 

I've been listening to ROXY MUSIC's Stranded, but I'm sick of it, and just now switched to a SUMMER mix including cocktail lounge jazz like Cal Tjader, Della Reese, plus The Astronauts, Johnny Nash, Sarah Vaughn, Jimi Hendryx, Mel Torme, The Ventures, Perez Prado and more! 

Currently grooving  out (at 10:54 p.m. 7/19/07 EST) to   PRIMUS "Frizzle Fry."

Made me think of Thelonius Monk's "Epistrophe" listening to it now in a 40s jazz collection. 

Now I'm listening to MEATLOAF  "Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell".

I'd guess as much, seeing its prominent ranking in your Top 10 list... I don't care for the phrase "of all time," but it's just a pet peeve  :teddyr: 
Added my list and am now listening to ROXY MUSIC: Siren because you caused me to think of it.  What a great pop rock album.  Maybe the best...

Been giving "Abigail" by King Diamond plenty of spin time...that is if spin time can be classified as playing mp3's.  :teddyr:

Yngwie Malmsteen - Far Beyond the Sun.

Have you heard his new album "Give Me Your Soul..... Please"?  While I don't particularly care for the drum sound on it, it is a really solid album.  I prefer his more classic stuff like Abigail, Them and Conspiracy myself (Fatal Portrait as well), but this new album is pretty good stuff.

I've been into this album hardcore since it came out in 1993. I was a big fan of the 1st Bat Out of Hell but the 2nd one has always just really clicked with me and I prefer it to the 1st all the time. It's just a fantastic album from start to finish and always get me in a good mood.

It's always been in my top 10 favorite album lists for quite some time.

I need to pick up some Roxy Music BTW.  Had some of their stuff on tape way back when but I need to find a really good anthology of some sort of their stuff.

 I got to see him open for Iron Maiden on the Somewhere in Time tour.  Great show!

I remember seeing Yngwie Malmsteen 20 years ago (SHEESH has it been that long???) in 1987 with Saxon and Black 'N Blue opening for him.

Who do you think was the best vocalist to work with him?


No, I have yet to hear it. I kinda lost interest in his stuff after Them. I need to "re-discover" some of his stuff.

I perfer the guy he had on the 1st 2 or 3 albums I believe. I'm not that familiar with his stuff that much after that, but the guy on the 1st Rising Force album was great.    He changed his lineups so much that it was about as difficult of keeping track of like NFL team lineups in the age of free agency.   :teddyr:   

I've been relishing in the delightfully soft, mellow droning of my brand new GE 5,050 BTU window unit that I just got at Wal-Mart for $80.

Sure it can! 

Bat Out Of Hell II: Back In Hell was that all music composed by Jim Steinman?  That record is out of print?  I think MEATLOAF is hugely underappreciated. 
ROXY MUSIC:  There is a collection available, but I'm not overfond of all the selections.  I burned a three volume collection for a good friend of mine.  Send me your email; I'll email you some ROXY MUSIC.  If you want a place to start, I would recommend Country Life.  If you have a pulse, you will love this record. 

The Cult Film Soundtracks thread inspired me so I'm listening to:
(http://a896.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/91/l_d5e12d85f04bad5faf6cf65ae93e7be7.jpg)
There is a very cool live rock band at the end of this CD that was not used in the film, but recorded for it.  "Carnival Rock!"  Love it!  Lo-ove it!

My Grapes of Wrath CDs Now and Again and These Days. Unfortunately the first has a scratch that messes up one of the best tunes  :bluesad:.

I started a similar thread in the Off Topic Discussion forum on May 3...great minds do think alike!  :teddyr: 


All wonderful clips, as usual, Bela.  MC5 is always in rotation at my house!  [edit] The second and third clips are no longer available!    :lookingup:  Well, at least I got to watch MC5 perform "Tonight!" (Off of Back In The U.S.A.)

Listening to right now this moment?  "I'm Loose" ("An' I'll stick it...deep inside...") THE STOOGES Fun House ... ohp!  "She gotta TV eye on me...She gotta TV eye...She gotta TV eye on me...Yu-eh!  See that cat?  Yeh I love her so... See that ca-ah-ah-att?  Yeh I love her so!" 

Right now I'm listening to the score from Dr. Giggles, the horror flick starring Larry Drake.

THE B-52's   "Time Capsule: Songs for a Future Generation"

Today a loaded mp3 disc of Alice Cooper pretty much all day while working on a staircase.

Tonight's selections from my "Uncompromised" mix:
Nina Simone, Bernard Herrmann, NY Dolls, Hooverphonic, Bob Dylan ("the pump don't work 'cause the vandals stole the handles...")  Velvet Underground (on as I type "I'm waiting for my man...$26 in my hand, up to lexington 1-2-5 feel sick and dirty more dead than alive, I'm waiting for my man...Hey white boy what you doin' up town, hey white boy you chasin' our women around, oh pardon me sir, its furthest from my mind ...")
okay I corrected my spelling errors

up coming

The Stooges, Prince & the Revolution, Neil Young, Elton John, Ray Charles, Dionne Warwick, Red Hot Chili Peppers...

Have you seen the documentary NEW YORK DOLL about the rather surprising later life of bassist Arthur "Killer" Kane?

It's one of my favorite documentaries of recent years.

No, missed that one, but maybe I'll luck out watching IFC, they show all sorts of wonderful documentaries and independent films. 

Bat Out of Hell 2 is actually in print and they released a deluxe remastered 2 disc edition about 5 or 6 years ago that I have of it.  Jim Steinman wrote, arranged and produced the album whereas the 1st Bat Out of Hell was written by Jim Steinman but produced by Todd Rundgren.

As for the Roxy Music e-mail option, I only right now have internet access at work as I got all of my home stuff (cable, land phone line, high speed internet bundle) canceled at the moment in an effort to maximize funds so that's not an option at the moment for me though I greatly appreciate the offer.

The FYE down the road from where I work has both Country Life and a recent best of used for 6.99 a piece so I'll probably just pick those up. 

Oh yeah, and I'm listening to LIZ PHAIR's "Exile in Guyville" at the moment.

Talking Heads - Fear of Music

Good choice, a great album, and an important one, I think.  I wrote a review over at Amazon; I only write reviews when I really like an album!   

Oh! And I'm listening to Martin Denny's "Quiet Village." 

KING CRIMSON   "Thrak"

IRON MAIDEN  "A Matter of Life and Death"

I liked In The Court Of The Crimson King and Lark's Tongue In Aspic. 

Right now, I'm listening to LES PAUL & MARY FORD: Warm And Wonderful

Had to look this up...man, I've had so many records that are now gone and I guess I'm getting old...I had the album the song "Song for a Future Generation" came off of (WHAMMY! their third LP)  also hard to find thru Amazon, which is why I was wrong about Bat Out Of Hell II!   

The girls sing: "Wanna be the Daughter of Dracula!"
The boys sing: "Wanna be the Son of Frankenstein!"
They all sing: " Let's meet and have a baby now...!  Now!  Now!" 

Just added WHAMMY! to my Amazon cart.

Right now, listening to CHET BAKER My Funny Valentine

I picked up that B-52's CD used a couple of weeks ago for only 5 bucks.  I wasn't planning on picking it up that day but saw it sitting there.  I liked them a lot back in the day and the CD is remastered and covers their whole career up until 1998.

I'm listening (now) to THE BEACH BOYS Pet Sounds mixed with The Very Best of The RASCALS and MA RAINEY "Backwater Blues"

Chocolate Rain by Tay Zonday - mostly because I cannot get the damn thing out of my mind!!

AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! :teddyr:

I HATE when that happens!   :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle:

[edit] Also now listening to BECK's Guero mixed with LOUIS ARMSTRONG "West End Blues" and other Ken Burns' Jazz selections.

SAMMY HAGAR   "Marching to Mars"

SAMMY HAGAR  (again)  "The Essential Red Collection"

I like SAMMY HAGAR, even when with VAN HALEN...

Inspired by my discovery of Bela's thread "HIPPIE MUSIC" I'm listening to JEFFERSON AIRPLANE Bless Its Pointed Little Head

"First Time" by Loose Cannons

Most people probably haven't heard of them.

Seems like every time the notifications for this thread showup in my inbox, I'm listening to a movie soundtrack.

Right now, it's Richard Band's score for Bride of Re-Animator.

Actually, I took off Loose Cannons.

Now, it's a greatest hits compilation for Primus.

JEFFERSON AIRPLANE After Bathing At Baxter's

Once I get 'em onto my Shuffle, Grunge was cool enough to send me a couple discs worth of McLusky that I'm looking forward to. I'm also in the process of downloading some Gogol Bordello off of emusic.com. You can't beat Gypsy punk fusion after all, right?

Sounds good to me... :smile:

 :cheers:

I am listening to "Carry Stress in the Jaw" by Mr. Bungle right this second!!!

Listening to '40's bluesy swing music from saxophonist and band leader Louis Jordan (no, not the guy who fought Swamp Thing), the How 'Bout That album.

These are a few of the albums I've listened to so far this week:

Life Goes On by Loose Cannons
American Idiot by Green Day
Straight Outta Lynwood by Weird Al Yankovic
Greatest Hit...And More by Reel Big Fish
Zoot Suit Riot by Cherry Poppin Daddies
Loud, Fast, Their Toughest Hits by The Ramones.  (I love it.)

A couple of us here are big fans of The Ramones and Rocket To Russia ...

Listening to BRENDA LEE Anthology (1956-1980)

BLUE OYSTER CULT   "Don't Fear the Reaper: The Best of Blue Oyster Cult"

(http://members.shaw.ca/msilicz/cowbell.jpg)   :teddyr:

Any Ramones album is good.  But Rocket To Russia has a bunch of good tracks on it.

MASTADON  "Blood Mountain"

Karma for you our new friend!   :thumbup:

I do not own it, but must confess to loving that song... I used to hear it often enough, I didn't care about anything else the band did and never bought one of their albums.  I don't hear that song so often nowadays, but I do hear it in my head...  :twirl:  Torgo, we could swap albums!  :thumbup:

I love that song.  The cowbell skit alone makes it fun to listen to.  I know HIM covered it, but I don't think it'd be as good.

I'm not too familiar with the rest of BOC's work though.  I might check them out.

Listening to CAPTAIN BEEFHEART Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller)

AC/DC   "Flick of the Switch"  followed up by "Stiff Upper Lip"

MR. BUNGLE   "Disco Volante"

Mixed:
The Ramones
Fun House THE STOOGES
Exile On Main Street THE ROLLING STONES
New York Dolls
Safe As Milk CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND
Guero BECK
TAXI DRIVER Original Soundtrack BERNARD HERRMANN
Velvet Underground & Nico
Back In The USA MC5
more...

THE CARS  "Complete Greatest Hits"

Awesome; love that. 

They had pretty much convinced famed recluse Ric Ocasek to do a full fledged reunion tour and then their original bass player Ben Orr died of cancer.

A couple of the members are on tour with Todd Rundgren right now billed as The New Cars. 

Velvet Underground & Nico "Femme Fatale" 
FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS "Like A Bird" but she's not really like a bird...really, she's horrible, but... I like it... :teddyr:

I think I had heard that...I really admire some of TODD RUNDGREN's work, but THE NEW CARS...  :twirl:
THE CARS without Ric Ocasek is like THE STOOGES without IGGY...

The song is "Re-hash" by The Gorillaz.

That first album by the Gorillaz is pretty good.  It's like an alternative/rock/hip hop type thing. 

Lately, I've been listening to:

Twisted Sister: Greatest Hits
Loose Cannons: Life Goes On
CKY: Volume 1, and Infiltrate, Destroy, Rebuild
Bloodhound Gang- One Fierce Beer Coaster

That's what I'm saying.    :thumbup:

They're also performaing some Rundgren stuff on tour but they released a CD with Rundgren doing vocals on some Cars classics.
 http://www.amazon.com/Its-Alive-New-Cars/dp/B000F3AAWA/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-3297271-4652460?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1186196552&sr=1-1 (http://www.amazon.com/Its-Alive-New-Cars/dp/B000F3AAWA/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-3297271-4652460?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1186196552&sr=1-1)

My  :thumbup: means karma for you Torgo...again?  Yes!  I've heard about this.  As Oscar Madison said: "Fe!" 

I haven't heard that New Cars CD but it seems to be all live.  I think it's still kind of pointless though.

I've been thinking about getting that fairly recent Essential Todd Rundgren 2 CD set that is supposed to be pretty comprehensive.

That just warms my heart to hear of someone else willingly listening to Florence Foster Jenkins. 

 :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle:  :thumbup:

Now, listening to THE DOORS L.A. Woman "The WASP (Texax Radio And The Big Beat)"

Radiohead and Beck

The album is called The Buzz.  It's a mix of mid 90's grunge/alternative.  It features, amongst others, Belly, Candlebox, Better Than Ezra, Seven Mary Three and REM.

Harry Manfredini's score to The Swamp Thing.

"Big in Japan" by Loose Cannons

The album is called Life Goes On

Such a good group.  I hope they have bigger success.

BLUR The Great Escape

I'm Your Fan, a tribute album to Leonard Cohen from 1991.



Right now, it's playing Geoffrey Oryema's version of "Suzanne."

Devo
Hardcore Vol. 1 '74-'77

Now, segued into CAPTAIN BEEFHEART AND HIS MAGIC BAND Safe As Milk

Klaus Schulze's very New Agey soundtrack to Body Love.

The Ultimate Run DMC- I love it.  It's 18 of Run DMC's best songs. 

I might not have been able to enjoy them in the '80s, but I certainly like them now.

Arlo Guthrie:  Alice's Restaurant

WARREN ZEVON    "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead: An Anthology"  Disc One 

RANDY NEWMAN   "The Best of"

I like a lot of your selections.  Randy Newman is great. 

I'm listening to: The Very Best of Aretha Franklin Vol. 1

I've got a 2 disc Aretha Franklin anthology that is fantastic and covers her entire career.

I've got very eclectic tastes when it comes to music and movies.

LIVING COLOUR  "Time's Up"

Paul's Boutique by The Beastie Boys.  I like it, actually.  A bit of a departure from their debut album, which was rock/rap.  This is more of a R&B/Rap type album.  But honestly, I think they're one of the most talented musical groups of the past 20 years, especially considering some of the bands currently sitting atop the charts.  I just think it's dumb they came out with an instrumental album. 

Family Music Party by Trout Fishing In America.

They're this folk rock type duo, who not only does music for adults, but children as well.  Really good group.

Richmond Indy Media Live with Rebecca Ferris
Today's show is about Zen Bhudism

VLADO PERLEMUTER: RAVEL Piano Works Vol. 1 Miroirs: Noctuelles

FISHBONE   "The Reality of My Surroundings"

Inspired by Bela (RCMerchant's) thread about Country Music, I'm re-acquainting myself with an old favorite, a 2 disc collection I've had for at least 15 years: HANK WILLIAMS 40 Greatest Hits and have sampled on my own mixes for many years.  An old friend loved Hank and many years ago gave me original 78s that I still have, and luckily I have a Victrola to listen to them and long ago realized that Hank was awesome and luckily bought the now out-of-print CD collection.

GARBAGE  "Bleed Like Me"

And I Feel Fine. ..The Best of the I.R.S. Years 1982-1987 by R.E.M.

Good album.  Features 21 songs by REM, including "Begin the Begin", "Pretty Persuasion", "Driver 8", and "(Dont' Go Back To) Rockville".

Right now listening to a greatest hits of REM.

But other albums I've enjoyed are:
Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
Goriilaz by Gorillaz
Straight Outta Lynwood by Weird Al Yankovic
Dirt by Alice in Chains

Smoke, a 2006 live CD from Marillion.

The Sickness by Disturbed

JOE COCKER  "Gold"

Disc one.

I have a JOE COCKER collection, might be that one...
Saw STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN (about a month before his death) open for JOE COCKER...was stunned when STEVIE finished, half the audience got up and left before JOE COCKER came on!  I got up and exclaimed: "Where you all going???  JOE COCKER's coming on!!!" 

I'm on Disc Two of Joe Cocker "Gold" now.

Man, that would have been a hell of a double bill show to see.  I really really wish that I had been old enough to have seen Stevie Ray Vaughan live. Talk about a huge loss.

STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN was amazing and wonderful, but JOE COCKER blew me away; he went spasmodic (as he's known to do) while he was scorching this old blues tune into our subconscious, and the sweat was flying off of him in ropes...okay..., he was awesome live!!!  I've seen a lot of acts, and some great ones, but JOE COCKER is near the top of the list. 

Whenever I listen to Joe Coker though, I can't get out of my head John Belushi's uncanny and earily dead on impersonation of him on SNL.  That skit in which he did the duet with Joe Cocker in character was one of the most surreal (but hilarious) moments that I've ever seen on anything.

Time Flies...The Best of Huey Lewis and The News.  What can I say?  I love Huey and the News, and feel they are much underappreciated.

That's my opinion though.

That's gold right there.

I wasn't around back then, but have seen it since, and it's pretty funny.

I'm with you Gilmore.

Right now I'm listening to Clapton, baby.  Live on the 24 Nights CD.

JOHNNY CASH  "Live at Folsom Prison"

I am in the process of cleaning out my desk at work for a move to a new building. I found Sting: Dream of the Blue Turtles on the bottom (which holds up well) and the Yes Album (which didn't)

Volume 1 by CKY. 

Thanks. 

Clapton's not too bad either.

Saw CLAPTON live with MARK KNOPFLER... the only time I can remember sitting thru most of a big-name concert.  No light show, no smoke and mirrors, no pyrotechnics, no gymnastics...KNOPFLER was livelier, but CLAPTON stood in the middle of the stage and played...blowing us all away. 

 Added to playlist...

Bon Jovi's Have A Nice Day CD. While it seems as though they've turned into Christian rockers, I enjoyed the album for the most part and in fact like it better than any of their old stuff.

STEELY DAN  "Showbiz Kids:The Steely Dan Story"  Disc One

Right now: Chicago 17 via iTunes.

Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads.

It's a special edition, with all the songs from the movie plus 7 previously unreleased live tracks.

I guess you'd say it's a live greatest hits album, but pretty dang good, considering it's live.   Great songs on it, too.

And apparently they went 'country' too, as they've been getting play on some country stations.  I have no problem with it, if they pull it off.

Chef Aid: The South Park Album- I highly reccomend this album to anybody.  It's got a great selection of artists, including Joe Strummer, Meatloaf (who sings a song with Issac Hayes), Rancid, Ween, Perry Farrell, Elton John, Ozzy Osbourne, and Primus, amongst others.

Yeah, I listen to a bunch of different music.

ZZ TOP   "Rancho Texicano"   Disc Two.

THE BLACK CROWES   "Greatest Hits"

Facelift by Alice in Chains

Great album

Black Crowes are pretty decent.

Right now I have Facelift by Alice in Chains playing.

Always had a soft spot for Terminator but then again, nearly ever-body did! 
Once again listening to CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND Safe As Milk
(http://a792.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/75/l_4e1f087ca48f5a357b2973554a6c9757.jpg)

Listening to The Best of CANNED HEAT ...lots of rain here today...

And I'm back to more Clapton.  (Hey, you hit a mood, you run with it.) This time it's the From the Cradle CD, which is really what got me interested in the blues.  I've always thought it was weird that I got interested in blues music because of a white Englishman...

You're the only one I know who might have added that song to their playlist.  The only other person I can think of who might upload that song would be ... me.  Do you have Billie's original recording or her later re-take with VERVE? 

Extraordinary Girl, off of American Idiot by Green Day.

Many people might not like them, but I grew up listening to them.

And, if anything, they got me into the Sex Pistols, Ramones, and The Clash.

2 albums I enjoy popping in on occasion:

They Can't All Be Zingers by Primus.  16 of their 'greatest hits'.  Odd, considering I've never really considered them as a band with hit songs.  Just some great songs, period.

Greatest Hit...And More by Reel Big Fish.  Ska type rock group.  Don't know if anyone else likes them.

R.E.M.'s  Reckoning.

Murmur and Reckoning by R.E.M.

the  BAD BRAINS-Banned in DC

 
 Just her!!!  :thumbup: Who's Verve?  :question:

My Bela, you've lain in the crypt too long!  VERVE was the last record label for which BILLIE HOLIDAY recorded any significant number of recordings...her best known records were with DECCA in the 40s, however in the 1930s Holiday started with COLUMBIA who would not record "Strange Fruit," so she sought another label and it was recorded by Billie for COMMODORE in 1939 (the flipside was a hit, "Fine And Mellow").  The original recording is hard to find, though I eventually found it on CD.  Billie also re-recorded the song for VERVE, but that version, though powerful and much better known, is inferior to the original. 

 I dunno which then...I jut pulled it offthe net. I used to have it on a Jazz compilation a few years back...and I liked it. I don't know alot about Jazz,just that I like a lot of what I hear! I love discovering new music!  :thumbup:

Can you email it to me?  I will be glad to send you the original if it's different than your version. 

 I'll see if I can figure out how to do it...I have it on the Project Playlist thingy on myspace. if you go to http://www.myspace.com/ieatrats you can look for it on the player!  :smile:

I'm on "yourspace" right now... who is that singing "MONSTER MAN"???  LOVE that crap!!!   :twirl:
I would suggest changing your wallpaper, it's cool, but, I'm gettin' dizzy and can't read sh*t. 

The Monster Man song is by SCREAMING LORD SUTCH...back in the early 60's,he did lotsa goofy "horror rock"...and some crazy plain old R+R...and dig this,his guitar player was a young Jimmy Page! 

 [youtube=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUkHiyvIYG8

 the Lord doing JACK the RIPPER!

                           (yeah...it is hard on the eyes...I just don't figure on to many visators...use it mostly as m"myboredomspace'' ...  :lookingup:)

                                      Dam! It's almost 1;30!!!! I gotta nod out...my eye's are starting to cross....!!!! Nite, All !

"The Only" by Static-X

I loved that video, thanks!  SCREAMING LORD SUTCH, of course!!!  A trully whacked out relic!  I remember "Jack The Ripper!!!"  You made my night, Bela! 

"She's Fallin' in love with the Monster man..."  There is quite a bit of Lord Sutch available...yup, I'm trying to locate the recording on Amazon, can you advise the exact song title, because he apparently did a track called "Monster Rock" which sux and is not the one you have!!!  Thanks! 

 The song title,according to the Lord's myspace page is 'She's Fallen in Love With a Monster Man' ,released in 1964!!! Just read a interview piece on same,and the Lord used to by his clothes in the early 70's at Malcolm McClaren's Teddy Boy shop...and was aquainted with the Sex Pistols,who were big fans as well! Neat-0  stuff...!  :smile:

Pure awesomeness. IMO the best work Franke did for the entire series.

PAUL SIMON  "Rhythm of the Saints"

ROBERT PALMER  "The Very Best of the Island Years"

Use Your Fingers by Bloodhound Gang.

Their debut album.  More hip hop based, but still rocks.

Great album. 

I'm a big Meat Loaf fan.  Just picked up a used copy of Dead Ringer today for 3 bucks as a matter of fact.

Just 3 bucks for Dead Ringer?

Not a bad deal, I guess. 

A collection of Missouri-based rockabilly from the 1950's.  At the very moment, Johnny Nace is singing "A Bashful Sorta Guy."

Thank You by Stone Temple Pilots.

Greatest Hits collection.

Just finished up listening to LORDI  "The Arockaplyse".

Now, I'm listening to ACCEPT  "Restless & Wild".

Punk-O-Rama 10- Various Artists.  It's a comp. album with various punk type bands.

Garage, Inc.- by Metallica.  I like it, despite what others say.

Currently right now,

Loud, Fast, Ramones: Their Toughest Hits by The Ramones.  30 Ramones songs spanning their career.  Songs include "We're A Happy Family", "Somebody Put Something In My Drink," "I'm Against It", "I Believe in Miracles", and "Rockaway Beach."

I'm Against It is probably my alltime favorite Ramones song.  Ever.

Inspired by trekgeezer's thread...

Licensed To Ill by The Beastie Boys

Yeah, from 1984 to 1983 I guess.   :cheers:

Today, I listened to:

Elvis: Ones- Thirty Number One songs by Elvis. 

Licensed to Ill by Beastie Boys

Fun stuff.

Plus, anyone who likes "Heartbreak Hotel" by Elvis should look up Stan Freberg's version.  It's kind of a parody, but not really.  The lyrics don't change so much, as it's just a funny way he does it.  It's from back in the '50s.  It's pretty funny.  Stan, of course, was pretty much one of the kings of novelty music back then.

Need to find a good Stan Freberg collection...I love those old kooky recording artists like Spike Jones, John Zacherle, Phil Harris, Bobby Pickett, Dickie Goodman, Scotty McGregor...

"I Like Chinese,"  Monty Python.

Flood by They Might Be Giants

Spike Jones is hilarious.  Allan Sherman's pretty good too, as well as Bobby Pickett.  A good song to check out is "Existential Blues" by Tom T-Bone Stankus.  I don't know where to find any of his albums, but heard that song on a compilation and it's hilarious. 

I'm also starting to get into Zappa a little bit as well, although I wouldn't necessarily categorize him in that novelty area, although he's had a few that could be, like "Dancin' Fool."

I'm in a headbanging mood again today.   :teddyr:

SLAYER  "Reign in Blood"

They only come up to your knees. They're always happy and they're ready to please.   :teddyr:

SLAYER   "Hell Awaits" 

(http://www.adpulp.com/satan.jpg)

Not such a well-received album critically, but underrated.  I think this is one of the most consistently beautiful records I've heard...

DIMMU BORGIR "In Sorte Diaboli"

YEAH!!! I love that album..."INFAMOUS-BUTCHER-ANGEL OF DEEEEAAAAAATH!!!!!!!"
Back in the late eighties,early ninties-I was into speed metal. Slayer,Megadeth,Anthrax-justabout anything on Headbangers Ball,,,I was a big fan of Thrash Metal Magazine...which was later re-titled Metal Maniacs.. Ahhh....the good ol'days...!  I'm old now. I still listen to it sometiimes...hard to listen to Slayer with the wifey and kids around...just ain't the same as it was when I was with my buddies and nothing to loose except my mind- :bouncegiggle: !

And I'm listening to... something from my jazz folder.  Hold on.

[pause]

Jackie McLean, Jackie's Bag.  Saxophonist from the '50's and '60's.  White, but I don't hold that against him.

By the way, gotta give my thumbs up for the Velvet Underground mention, and of course, Flood!

Psychedelic Furs - Midnight To Midnight

Today:

Poodle Hat by Weird Al Yankovic. 

An Answer Can Be Found by CKY.

Volume 1 (1930-1935) of the complete recorded works of forgotten bluesman Kokomo Arnold.

I think I hear the Dizzy Gillespie tune "Kokomo" in my head...Kokomo Arnold however is forgotten because, for one blues and jazz afficionado, I don't know him !!!  Thanks for pointing him out, I will be looking into that gentleman.   :thumbup:

Listening to CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and THE MAGIC BAND's Lick My Decals Off, Baby and can't help it... I like this weird sh*t... :teddyr:

Right now, listening to:

Greatest Hits by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers.  Didn't thnk I'd like them as much as I do.

"Hide Away" by Stevie Ray Vaughan (from the "Live at Montreux 1982 & 1985" album)

Dr. Demento's 25th Anniversary Collection- Features 36 songs on 2 discs.  Featured artists include Leonard Nimoy, The Beat Farmers, Weird Al Yankovic, Barnes and Barnes, Tiny Tim, Spike Jones and many more.

Dr. Demento!!!  :thumbup:  When I was a teenager, they had a radio show on station WLAV-FM of his! Wow!
 I usta have A two album delux set of Spike Jones I bought from a Time-Life ad off TV back in about 1981! Curious: Is Screaming Lord Sutch on it?

Listening to the classic exotica album Orienta by the Markko Polo Adventurers.

(http://www.jugi3.ch/homepage/top_music/cheap_trick.jpg)

No.  That song isn't on the 20th or 25th anniversary set.  Although, there is a 30th anniversary set I haven't picked up yet, so I'm not sure if it's on there.  The 20th Set has 2 songs by Spike: "Der Feurer's Face" and "Cocktails for Two", and the 25th has Spike's "Dance of the Hours."  I wanna pick some of his albums up though.  My grandfather had an old record of Spike's, but you need one of those old turntables to listen to it.  He's passed away last year, so I'd have to search his house and whatnot to listen to it.

But the Dr. D sets have a weird collection of artists on it.  Zappa, Bobby Pickett, Sheb Wooley, Cheech and Chong, etc.

One Fierce Beer Coaster by Bloodhound Gang.  Mid '90s alt rock, with plenty of juvenile humor thrown in to boot.   One of my favorite bands.   :thumbup:

Stop Making Sense Special Edition by Talking Heads.  A bit before my time, but great set of songs, great band.  Wish they'd do more, but apparently David Byrne would rather be a solo artist.

Becoming the Archetype: Terminate Damnation. This is what I'm listening to now. I'll probably switch over to something else in a bit though.

(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000009S3.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)

Hot Rats by FRANK ZAPPA...!  Glad someone is listening to Zappa.  You're aware that's Don Van Vliet (CAPTAIN BEEFHEART) singing on "Willie The Pimp"? 

It's raining here today, so I usually listen to something more subdued or even melancholic on rainy days: VLADO PERLEMUTER: Vlado Perlemuter RAVEL Piano Works Vol.2 (1979)

Should have included this one on my "top ten albums" list in that thread started by Torgo, but you know how it goes, you sometimes take for granted the things you love the most...there's at least one more album that I neglected to include on that list...
(http://a506.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/86/l_56ba431c9bfca0f08b78432432c340a9.jpg)

Tonight's albums:

Rear View Mirror (Greatest Hits 1991-2003) by Pearl Jam.  They seem to be a band that people either straight up hate, or love.  At least around here it is.

Nevermind by Nirvana.  Classic album.  And who knew Dave Grohl could be so good to have two great bands?  Granted, he wasn't necessarily a driving creative factor for Nirvana, but still.

(http://www.blogus.com.ar/blog/images/sepultura_arise.jpg)

I'm starting to think that Allhallowsday and I visit some of the same online venues... :twirl:

Right now, I'm listening to some horror-tinged surf-punk by The Coffin Daggers.

Today I bought the Peter Brötzmann Octet's Machine Gun.  This has only been available in the US as an espensive import but today Atavisitc released a great expanded edition of the full session (plus a live recording).  I mainly bought it out of curiosity, but so far I dig it.  It's really vicious free-jazz.

(http://www.atavistic.com/items/MGalp262mini250.jpg)

I've also been enjoying some stuff I downloaded (when I have the money it's probably stuff I'll buy):

The Byrds - The Notorious Byrd Brothers
David Byrne - Rei Momo
Bruce Cockburn - Humans

Today, I'm in the mood for some classics:

(http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m161/greendayluver19/images.jpg)-
Straight Outta Lynwood, by Weird Al Yankovic

(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a64/donna_182_/images25.jpg)
Spend the Night, by The Donnas

Perhaps, but, that record is not evidence of such.  I had it on vinyl (twice) dating to the 1970s.  I've had the CD for probably 20 years. 
Though quite different, here's another record that I listen to a lot when Autumn begins (and it feels like Autumn here in NJ these last few rainy days.)

(http://www.prawnsong.com/records/images/cd_onion.jpg)

Tonight:

Volume 1 by CKY

St. Elsewhere by Gnarls Barkley

I highly reccomend both to anyone.

Midnight Oil's Breathe.

I do wonder if I am the only person who loves this band?

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/51BWH8F9PZL._SS500_.jpg)

Right now I'm listening to the Erin's Keel CD by Whiskey Galore.  It's pretty good trad celtic, but their rendition of "Star of the County Down" is ruined by a tin whistle playing in a wholly separate key.

Four by Blues Traveler.

Never Mind The Bollocks...Here's the Sex Pistols by The Sex Pistols

Goove is in the Heart ...

I have World Clique loaded in my mp3 mix right now.

Time for more classics.

Jim Henson's rendition of "Time in a Bottle" is particularly poignant, looking back on how young he was when he died.  There never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do once you find them...

Karma dude. :thumbup:

I have the 25th Anniversary collection.  It's a cd with songs from The Muppet Show and the various muppet movies.  Also have a Sesame Street soundtrack.

(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b4/Rush_Counterparts.jpg/200px-Rush_Counterparts.jpg)  RUSH "Counterparts"

Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand.  Pretty decent album.

Hot Fuss by The Killers.  I loved this album as well.  Hope to see more from them actually.

I Get Wet by Andrew W.K.  An album not for everyone.  I like it though.

Never Mind The Bollock by The Sex Pistols- Pretty classic album, by any means.  I'm more a Ramones fan, but really do appreciate the Pistols as well.

Rifles of the I.R.A. by The Wolfe Tones.

You'd think that a name like "The Wolfe Tones" should belong to a rockabilly band, but these Irish balladeers take their name from a 19th-century Irish nationalist.  A lot more like the Clancy Brothers or The Irish Rovers than the post-Chieftains, post-Enya celtic glut.

Saw Midnight Oil live at the Spectrum in Philadelphia...wish I could remember now who opened for them...or did they open for someone else?!!! 

JASE, you need to trim your images after you grab them from Amazon... like the Amazon-grabbed image below of an album which I am listening to right now !! 

TORGO, everyone loves SADE !!

Though they got quite a bit of press, CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND was dropped by their label Buddha after their first album tanked.  I have to say that the Buddha Records' decades-buried outtake of "Safe As Milk" included as a bonus track on CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND's  recently remastered release of the band's first album Safe As Milk (1967 is wonderful ~ ironically, the original Safe As Milk album did not include the title track!)  It is far superior to the "studio enhanced" crap on this record, the band's second album, released on Blue Thumb Records late in 1968, an  ill-received second album (long story, who cares but buffs?)    ...some very amusing parts ("Beatle Bones And Smokin' Stones" which alienated early supporter John Lennon and I can hear why...)  and some unique blues.  Now only available as an import. 
(http://a507.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/87/l_aadc0d49058fe157567bed6329bfdb7a.jpg)

Saw her live with an ex girlfriend on the Lovers Rock tour. A fantastic show.  She was in top form.  One of the most talented, beautiful and sensuous women to walk the earth.

(http://www.humandeath.de/Multimedia/Repka_Death_Leprosy.jpg)

Does anybody else discover a band and then systematically explore their albums?  I've been doing this for more than 35 years, my first love being ELTON JOHN, whom I have not listened to now in many, many years, only because I am always moving on, but now I'm exploring CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, but... at this moment:

.BOBBY GENTRY-Ode to Billy Jo



  [

Punk O Rama 10- Various Artists. 

Went looking for my own copy of Ode To Billy Jo, BOBBIE GENTRY's wonderful album, but can't find it!  Y'see what happens as you get older?  I had the LP twice (many of my favorite records were leaned against a radiator decades ago, so I went about replacing them...)  Can't believe I don't have it on CD and bet it's out of print!  I just found my (second) copy of the LP so at least I can review the playlist (I do have a record player, so you can bet I'll be playing it in a little while)  It's...not a perfectly produced record, but one of my favorites.  I can't find it on Amazon, though much of it is available on collections...I guess I haven't listened to it in at least 15 years !! 

Now listening to the Carter Family.

 BAD BRAINS-the ROIR cassette (aka Banned in DC)

 (http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l79/RCMerchant/untitled-41.jpg)

 

I've heard her earlier stuff is pretty decent.  The first song I heard her do was on a comp. album, where she sang the "Banana Splits Theme Song' with Material Issue.

But the only album of hers I actually have is the self titled album, but I was told that's more poppy.  I have heard a few earlier songs from this album you posted, but haven't bought anything yet. 

How are they?

A Bruno Nicolai score to a Jess Franco movie.  The mind boggles.

(http://a371.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/102/l_d6be4ec428e88eff01a81064d87e9caa.jpg)

Nice.  Have you heard about Alex North's score that he composed for Kubrick before Kubrick decided to go with nothing but classical selections?

2001 by Dr. Dre- The sequel album to Dr. Dre's legendary "Chronic" album.  Decent enough album, and features pretty decent cameo's by Xzibit, Snoop Dogg, and Eminem.

It seems Kubrick had had problems with soundtrack composers, as Alex North was unaware his score was not used until he saw the film... Leonard Rosenman who scored BARRY LYNDON and was a close personal friend of Kubrick's stated that they would never work together again for the sake of the friendship! 

My favorite parts of the 2001 soundtrack are the pieces by Aram Khachaturian and György Ligeti (who also had problems with Kubrick, but apparently ironed them out). 

Now listening to parts of LES PAUL & MARY FORD Definitive Collection

Under the Table and Dreaming by Dave Matthews Band

Weezer by Weezer.  (Blue Album)

Weird Al Yankovic by Weird Al Yankovic-- I highly reccomend it.  It's Al's debut album, and features many of the accordian based hits, like "My Balogna", "Another One Rides The Bus", and "Ricky."

Howlin' Wolf - Moanin' In The Moonlight

Kreator - Extreme Aggression

To The Five Boroughs by Beastie Boys


Hot Fuss by The Killers

Great album.  Classic metal.

Permission To Land- by The Darkness.  Pretty decent album, overall. 

Big Ones by Aerosmith.  Their 'greatest hits' collection from like, '87- '94.  Most people would say that was a terrible time for them, but I grew up in the '90s so I was exposed to that stuff first.  I like their earlier stuff too, though.

Aerosmith IMO is one of the very few rock bands to not release a stinker from front to back.  I actually picked up Just Push Play for about 2 bucks a few weeks ago and was surprised at how good some of the album was.  I've even warmed up to Jaded a bit.

Oh, and I'm listening to (http://www.djorthodox.info/news/death4.jpg)

Currently:

Family Music Party by Trout Fishing In America.  Folk rock duo.  Pretty decent.  

Polka Party! by Weird Al Yankovic.  Sadly, not his best work, but there's still 2-3 good songs on it.

And I Feel Fine: The Best of The I.R.S. Years (1982-1987) by REM.  Decent collection of songs from REM earlier days.  Somewhat pre-MTV but not necessarily either.  Good band.

B.B. King Sings Spirituals.

I love his worn late-period voice, but sometimes it's easy to forget that when he was young, he had impressive range and tone.

Routinely, though, I've been listening to:
Great Gonzos by Ted Nugent (yes, I realize it's a greatest hits, his LPs are so hit or miss)
Suspiria and Dawn of the Dead by Goblin
Escape From New York by John Carpenter
Jailbreak by Thin Lizzy
Sons of Northern Darkness, Damned in Black and Diabolical Full Moon Mysticism by Immortal
In the Nightside's Eclipse, Anthems to the Welkin At Dusk, and IX Equilibrium by Emperor
Death Cult Armageddon by Dimmu Borgir
Hex: Or Printing in the Infernal Method by Earth
Black Sabbath, Paranoid, Master of Reality, Volume 4 and Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath
The Art of Partying and Hazardous Mutation by Municipal Waste

I'm also an unashamed superfan of Andrew WK.

They Can't All Be Zingers by Primus.  A greatest hits collection.

I'm a HUGE Primus man. Especially their output from 1990 through 1996.  I wasn't that fond of the Brain era though there were some great tracks in there like Laquerhead so it wasn't a complete waste.  I've seen them 3 times. 

I would recommended just picking up their stuff from the era that I mentioned. It's all great stuff.

But any Primus is good primus.   :thumbup:

Loop - Fade Out, and Heaven's End - absolutely killer psychedelic rock.

(http://img.mp3sugar.com/album/cover295_40903.jpg)

Thats the re-release.  The original was just a black cover with the band name and Vic Rattlehead on it.
Some good music on there tho...But at the same time, it could easily link this thread to the "Worst cover tune" thread with their version of Nancy Sinatra's These Boots.

Blue Oyster Cult's Heaven Forbid.

Yeah, they remastered the album and everything and it sounds a million times better than the old CD.  The only bad thing is that they had to censor out the oscene material on their cover of These Boots as the original songwriter took legal action against them due to how Dave changed the lyrics.

JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS  "Fit to be Tied: Great Hits"

What the hell IS this I'm listening to, anyway?

"Classical Music of Iran." 'Course, the impression Western audiences get when the world "classical" comes up is not accurate here.  "Traditional" would probably be a better description.

Dare to Be Stupid by Weird Al Yankovic- I'm a huge fan of his work, and have every album.  So he may be posted a bunch in here.

Never Mind The Bollocks- Sex Pistols.  Classic album.  Good stuff.

INXS   "Definitive Hits" 

(an import CD from Australia that I got off of Ebay. Better than any of the U.S. greatest hits compilations.)

(http://www.sputnikmusic.com/images/albums/15595.jpg)

Hey, it's me on horseback! :teddyr:

I had two Grim Reaper albums on cassette back when I was growing up in the 80's.   One was See You in Hell (which you posted) and the other one was Rock You to Hell.  If you could get past the cheese factor of their singer at times, they were a pretty solid band.   

I had to record their albums from my friend's LP's. There was no way my mother was going to let me bring something like that into the house.

Props for mentioning Grim Reaper! I had Fear No Evil on cassette back in the 80s. Great band.
Hey, anybody remember Sword? They were from Montreal and they only put out two albums (Metalized and Sweet Dreams), but they were really cool.

 :thumbup: You're making me feel old dammit.
I loved Grim Reaper...Granted, their singer was a bit of a cheese ball and ugly as home made soap, but not a bad band at all

Right now I'm listening to Carter Burwell's score for The Corruptor (1999).  Fairly standard action/suspense soundtrack, with some subtle little Asian curlicues for character.

This record is growing on me:
(http://a507.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/87/l_aadc0d49058fe157567bed6329bfdb7a.jpg)

One Fierce Beer Coaster by Bloodhound Gang.

Good stuff.

(http://vibrationsofdoom.com/test/covers/BlindIllusion.jpg)

Blind Illusion - The Sane Asylum

Another band with members with whom I went to school.

(http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb128/Orion_X/Album%20Covers/TheFoodAlbum.jpg)

and also

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand.

You listen to WEIRD AL YANKOVIC a lot, which I admire; he's a genius (tho' not one of my favorites, at least not yet...)  :thumbup:

I'm listening to another genius, who is one of my all-time favorites, FATS WALLER. 
(http://a329.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/101/l_2165cd713ecbf46639149decae445948.jpg)

LOOK OUT!!!! LOOK OUT!!!!!!!

...And Out Come The Wolves by Rancid.

Rancid is a pretty decent group.

I listen to this one at least every three days: CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and THE MAGIC BAND Lick My Decals Off, Baby...  Since I've learned that I don't always love right away the records I will listen to a lot, I kept putting it on.  The music must always subconsciously sink into my brain... man, did I hear these bizarre tunes in my dreams...
Lick My Decals Off, Baby is more subversive and more challenging than any Jazz, Theatre/cabaret, Blues, Pop, Metal, Punk, Thrash, Grunge, Glam or Acid Rock you could throw at it... I think that's why I kept listening to it... now, I love it !!  :teddyr:

I'm kinda keen on Claudia Christian's (Yes THAT Claudia Christian...The same one who played Commander Susan Ivanova on Babylon 5) Taboo. 
I'd post a pic of the CD, but the cover is a lil on the NSFW side.

The girl is pretty talented.

"Monster Bop" by Elvira. I love that silly rap song. "The fly, the blob and the thing, Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King..."

Slowdive - Just For A Day

Fantasy Mist's New Horizons :thumbup:
Some good Acoustic music there

(I'd post more in this thread, but Clapton's been coming up a lot lately, and I doubt everyone wants to hear about album after album of Clapton...)

I saw ERIC CLAPTON live in the 80s... I do understand why they called him what they did in the 60s...
One of the best acts I've seen. 

I never really had much appreciation for his music until his Unplugged album.  Then between that and From the Cradle, I was hooked -- both on blues and on Clapton.

As Cruel as School Children- by Gym Class Heroes.  Pretty decent.  I'm not much into rap, although this is a good album.  Plus they sample both Supertramp and Jermaine Stewart.  That's a plus by me.

Straight Outta Lynwood by Weird Al Yankovic.  New classic by him.  Trapped in the Drive Thru is great, and he has a song that, while a non-parody, reminds me of Sparks.

His Greatest Comic Songs by Ray Stevens.  Good stuff.  Classics like "Gitarzan", "The Streak", "Ahab The Arab" and "It's Me Again, Margaret" are on this compilation.

The Very Best of Kiss by KISS.  21 songs by KISS, but unfortunately, that Michael Bolton one is on it too.  So, 20 good songs and that.

We Are Not Alone by Breaking Benjamin.

With my computer down most of the time this week, due to renovation in my office, I listen to my music only in the car... yeh, this is what I was listening to today while picking up Francine the cat supplies, CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND's Strictly Personal:
(http://a507.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/87/l_aadc0d49058fe157567bed6329bfdb7a.jpg)
I will be writing an Amazon review of this one, as I tend to do to free myself from a record, or just for fun... this record is a mess, but still very interesting, and I think the closing line of "Beatle Bones And Smokin' Stones," "Strawberry feels forever..." is a tribute, not a chide.   :smile:

Punk O Rama 10- Overall a decent enough album.  Features several punk groups, including Pennywise, Rancid and Bad Religion.

And Out Come the Wolves by Rancid.  Fun stuff. 

25 Years of Absolute Pleasure: The Rocky Horror Picture Show- Great soundtrack to a fun movie. 

Fozzy by Fozzy.  Mostly covers of heavy metal music with about 2 new songs.

Superhero by Stephen Lynch.   :thumbup: Hilarious stuff.

WWF The Music, Volume 5- Pretty much the best track is Motorhead's "The Game."

Mmm... Maiden.  I gotta listen to more Maiden.

In the meantime, I'm listening to Michael Suby's score to 2006's The Zodiac.  It's a very low-key, brooding score, heavy on piano, without most of the spooky tremors or metal-on-metal shrieks that one expects in most horror soundtracks.

(http://www.canoe.com/divertissement/musique/entrevues/2006/09/15/maidenfull.jpg)

(Been on a Maiden binge today at work in case you're wondering.  :teddyr:  )

Lately, I've been listening to Protest the Hero and Arch Enemy, with a little Nothingface and In Flames in between.  Yeah, I'll admit I got the new AE CD from a friend before release, but I intend to buy it when it does come out.

I Stoled This Record by Cledus T. Judd.  Underrated performer.

"The Very Best of"

QE2 by Mike Oldfield.

THREE DOG NIGHT ??  Gimme some brickyard blues!!!  Can't give you no more karma, today, pal, but we sure could listen to music together!   :smile:

God, I love this album.  It's been forever since I listened to it.  I think it's about time I picked it up again. 

Don't!  Ever! Trust!  Don't ever trust the needle!

For reasons beyond my understanding, I've had Caught In The Middle by Dio stuck in my head for a week.  The only way to remedy that was to listen to Holy Diver.  It only made matters worse.  Now it alternates between Caught In The Middle and Don't Talk To Strangers, that album's double whammy of metal awesome.

(http://www.exposingsatanism.org/images/people-signing/dio.jpg)

Also, Gwar is dead, everyone.  It's all about Lordi these days.  I can't recommend this band, enough.

Running With Scissors by Weird Al Yankovic

The Very Best of Prince by Prince

I like to think that I have pretty varied (and good) taste in music.  I picked up that Three Dog Night for only 6 bucks used.  It's all remastered and you forget how many great songs this band had until you get around listening to one of their hit compilations.

BTW, I'm glad that their are other people out there that appreciate Captain Beefheart as well.  I first became aware of him on Zappa's album Hot Rats when he did vocals on "Willie the Pimp."

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys.  I gotta say, I don't think they have a bad album, unless you count this new all-instrumental one.  But I haven't heard that yet.

The Better Life by 3 Doors Down

I like THE BEASTIE BOYS, too.  You remind me that I'm sorry that I got rid of my 12 inch singles from the early 80s... one of which was their hilarious and compelling "Cookie Puss..."  Remember that one?   For you: :thumbup:

TESTAMENT  "The Gathering".

(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000002IRM.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)

CAPTAIN BEEFHEART AND HIS MAGIC BAND Safe As Milk (their first album, which is the most overlooked masterpiece of 1967 and so impeccably produced and accessible, it's unlike any of the CAPTAIN's other albums).

Now, I'm listening to "...a record of purty music..."  THE STOOGES Fun House the greatest record that ROCK has yet produced.  As Iggy once suggested, and to again paraphrase, THE STOOGES could eat all the poodles for breakfast, such as any METAL, PUNK, HARD ROCK, ACID, WHATEVER YOU CARE TO NAME.  If you LOVE ROCK N' ROLL as I do, you MUST own this record, you will not be disappointed, but you may be a little tired afterwards!  RIGHT ON!  RIGHT ON!  RIGHT ON!

I found an Andy Cowan disk that a friend sent me from Australia.
The guy does justice to some blues, and a stellar rendition of "Little Wing"
If you can find him, give him a listen

Listening to Frederic Talgorn's score for Robotjox.  The movie was both silly and dumb, and Talgorn is Elmer Bernsteining so hard you expect Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen to be featured on the cover.

More Adventurous by Rilo Kiley

The Eminem Show by Eminem

Well it's great that someone pays such close attention; having started the thread, I say: Yes! Repeats are allowed... mainly because the subject is WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENING TO?  And, well, I was listening to FATS WALLER again last night.   :teddyr: 

Now That's What I Call Christmas- Granted, a bit early to listen to it.  But it's packed with classics from Tony Bennet, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, and the Bing Crosby/David Bowie version of "Little Drummer Boy."  Overall a great listen for two cd's.

CKY Volume 1 by CKY.  Couldn't find the album cover, so eh.

I got a promo of this before it came out and used to play it all the time at the record store.  I was shocked by how good it actually was.  I saw Henry Rollins talk about his part in the recording when I saw his spoken word show in Maine and was expecting more Transformed Man weirdness but the listenability of the album is amazing!  It's an honestly good album.  Weird, but good.  The track title that eludes me at the moment, the one with Aimee Mann, is absolutely heartbreaking.  People would come up to me and ask what was playing and they'd wind up leaving with a copy.

As for me, today it's a steady diet of soundtracks:

Richard Cheese.  Check him out. :thumbup:

Last weekend was a milestone in my concert-going life. I got to see 2 of my favorite bands; Modest Mouse on Saturday night and (my favorite band for over 20 years) The Flaming Lips on Sunday night. Cool atmosphere! Friendly people all around us, hardcore fans, and made a lot of new friends that'll be coming to our yearly Halloween Party this year. Freakin' unbelievably good time!

The score to The Touch (2002) by Basil Poledouris -- not exactly the composer you think of when you think of large-scale mystical kung fu movies from Hong Kong, but...

Haven't listened to that one in a long while, but I think they were a great band, too... "Too much too soon...?"  At some point, it became fashionable to snub this record... uhm, because it had so many hits?   :twirl:  TORGO:  And CCR?  :thumbup:

I've got the Greatest Hits CD that came out in 2002 and I prefer that one as it has the track "Christmas in Hollis" which was a rare benefit track they did for a Christmas album in 1987.

But any Run DMC is great Run DMC nonetheless.   :wink:

I'm listening to (http://www.kickedintheface.com/reviews/cover/Slayer%20-%20Show%20No%20Mercy.JPG) at the moment. 

Lately been listening to "Young and Restless" a local band who just released their first album.

I'm a big fan of them live, since they're a very thrashy, frantic group.   There also is something to be said about a short Asian girl screaming her lungs out on stage.  Luckily the album is good as well, if a little subtle compared to their live shows.



Download/Listen to their single "Kapow" here (http://www.sidekick.com.au/mp3s/YoungandRestless-Kapow.mp3) [don't worry, it's legit, I think...  :teddyr: ]

Or watch their other single Police! Police! below:



Local flavour is the best flavour...  :thumbup:  :thumbup:

Funny you mention "Christmas in Hollis."  This greatest hits I have has a bonus dvd with 14 music videos, one of which is "Christmas in Hollis", despite the fact that the song itself isn't even featured on the musical side of it.  Eh.  At least it's there.

James Newton Howard's score to Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire.  Underwhelming movie; not too bad score from a dependable workhorse composer.

Woo!  Another bites the dust!

Lucky me they're back in town in a couple of weeks to play a gig [they're touring the album around the country.]  More screaming to come!

The last cover band I was in, Powderfinger was one of the songs we did.  It was cool because the guitarist couldnt sing worth a flip, but he nailed Neil's voice.

Now that you mention it, it does. :buggedout:

I met Disturbed when they did an in-store at my record store.  They were signing autographs and people were lined up around the block.  Before we opened the doors, their manager stepped forward to the staff and said, "If anyone would like anything signed, now would be the best time to do it."

All five of us stood there, awkwardly, staring at the band that was staring at us as if they were in total disbelief that no one wanted them to sign anything.  Then they opened the doors and the place was out of control and the band's self-esteem was restored.

The band was nice, but their singer was a total cock smoker.  Hanging in the store is a photo of the staff with the band.  I'm standing next to the singer making a face that says "I'm going to bite your head" at their singer.  I managed to sneak it in before the photographer snapped it.

Vandenberg's Burning Heart.
I LOVE the digital music channels on the high end of the cable dial.

Her great album Ode To Billie Joe is not available, but collections are, and most tracks off of Ode To Billie Joe are available (but not all...!!)  So, I'm listening to Chickasaw County child: The Artistry of BOBBIE GENTRY
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/BobbieGentryalbumcover.jpg)

 Bobby Gentry is one of those artists that remind me of my childhood years in Michigan. We lived on a dead end road in the boonies. Mary Jo, my step mother, used to listen to her,Lorreta Lynn,George Jones...all that type of stuff. Got sick of it as a kid...now it's a very nostalgic and bittersweet.
  Oh...yeah-I actually saw Lynn Anderson at the Van Buern County Fair in about 1972! I was all of ten!

Did LYNN ANDERSON sing "I Never Promised You A Rose Garden...?"  I can relate on getting sick of stuff; I didn't like BOBBIE GENTRY when I first heard her, but long ago had her album and really grew to love it.  When I was in a wistful mood, there was nothing better... what I then found syrupy arrangements now just add to the sentimental and nostalgic sound, and she wrote some wonderful songs!! 

I'm now listening to my End of Summer mix: Soundtrack 2001, Fats Waller, Bix Beiderbecke, Jefferson Airplane, sound effects, Les Paul, Patsy Cline, Sarah Vaughan, Ravel as played by Vlado Perlemuter...

 Yes...sure was...

   here she is...in 1971 the  year before I saw her!

(http://vinylzart.com/images/AlbumCovers-QuietRiot-MetalHealth(1983).jpg)

I started out listening to mellow RICK NELSON from '64...
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/RICKNELSONsingsFORYOU.jpg)
Then I listened to a very recent bargain-basement purchase that just arrived: VLADO PERLEMUTER's original recordings from 1961 (I think) released on VOX BOX (I have the old 3 record set for nearly 30 years) which was the complete known piano works of RAVEL at that time, this original release by PERLEMUTER is inferior to the NIMBUS collection recorded in the late 1970s and released 1978 (probably the greatest recorded music that I've yet discovered).  Nevertheless, VLADO PERLEMUTER's original recordings from 1961 are superior to all other such recordings, except VLADO topping himself, and there is an intimacy in the older recording, where the NIMBUS Records have more clarity, but evoke more of the haunting qualities in RAVEL's music.  If you like piano music, I highly recommend either of these recordings.  At this point in time no one has written greater piano music than MAURICE RAVEL. 
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/RAVELbyVladoPerlemuterVOXBOX.jpg)
Then I got into a LED ZEP mood, as I tend to do September afternoons, particularly that first album which reminds me of college days (no, I'm not that old !!)  I realized to my own surprise that I had only two later LED ZEPPELIN albums uploaded to my computer (Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti) so I ended up listening to the first four:

"Beyond the Gates"

Curse you! :teddyr: That was one of the albums I loaned out and never saw again. Damn, I have not heard that in a looooong time. :bluesad:

I'm listening to VU's second album.  If you think Metal, Thrash, Punk, or Rap is hardcore, check this one out: VELVET UNDERGROUND White Light / White Heat
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/VELVETUNDERGROUNDWhiteLightWhiteHea.jpg)

After that VU album, I needed something sweet, so I chose the perfect collection of any singer's hits:
SARAH VAUGHAN's GOLDEN HITS
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/SARAHVAUGHANGOLDENHITS.jpg)
It's the perfect album for Autumn, for being alone, or for falling in love.  Yeh, I get "misty" listening to any of Sarah's interpretations... they just get better, even more so than "Autumn In New York" and her definitive version... chalk it up to old-fart syndrome, but it's still the greatest "hits" collection I've yet heard, perfect for dancing to, fireside chats, and family and friends.  Halloween party music?  A Thanksgiving selection par excellence !!   :teddyr: 
If you're at all interested in the single most esoteric of the GREAT JAZZ singers, my own favorite, SARAH VAUGHAN, this is the place to start.  Do I love this record?  "Moonlight In Vermont?"  :smile: :smile: :smile:

Once again, I'm again listening to CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and HIS MAGIC BAND's Strictly Personal:

Granted, they might not have written a majority of what they performed.  But to say that some of their material isn't great is wrong.  You hear a song like, "Not Your Stepping Stone," "Pleasant Valley Sunday", or "Words."  Good songs. 

Plus, I like "Listen to the Band."  Not many people know it's them, as it's written and sung by Mike Nesmith.  Good underrated song.  Sounds like The Eagles or something.

Tangerine Dream - Underwater Sunlight

Because sometimes you're just in the mood for repetitive, watered-down semi-ambient electronica.

SPEAKING of watered-down semi-ambient electronica, I'm listening to: Speaking In Tongues TALKING HEADS.  :teddyr:

Siouxie and the Banshees - Twice Upon A Time: The Singles

(http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e146/Dub_T/AerosmithBigOnesLogo.jpg)

Tangerine Dream's soundtrack to Near Dark.   It seems really counterintuitive that synth instrumentals would accompany this movie; you'd expect something more like Ry Cooder.

(http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s297/dont_forget_your_towel/david-bowie-best-of-bowie.jpg)

Best of Bowie by David Bowie.  20 classic David Bowie songs, including "Blue Jean", "Golden Years", "Suffragette City" and "The Jean Genie."

Happy Gilmore could use some dialogue, or, read the posts... I repeat: "HappyGilmore, anyone who doesn't know THE MONKEES made many great records, don't know squat 'bout records." 
 :smile:
I wouldn't expect Ry Cooder if TANGERINE DREAM were doing the score... (it was 1987 afterall)  :wink:  But RY COODER does seem a good fit..., I'd nearly forgotten about this picture which was better than might have been expected (I'm sure it flopped...)  The very best movies usually do...  :thumbup:

Now listening to BIX BEIDERBECKE:
(http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff259/allhallowsday/BIXVol1-1.jpg)

Union Avenue, a very country-tinged rockabilly band.  (The lead singer's does his best Johnny Cash soundalike all through the disc.) Finger-pickin' versions of "Bad Moon Rising," "Hoochie Coochie Man," "I Shot the Sheriff," and "Sympathy for the Devil" (!) along with some less-surprising songs.

I think they're much better than people sometimes give them credit for.  Granted they might not compare to other groups from the time, like The Stooges or The Beatles, but they had a place in the music scene.

I have the Ink Spots think they're great ... well the older group as they have gone threw a few members over time. The 40's and 50's spots were best. I also have the Platters, the Miracles, Basin Street Boys, Charioteers, Delta Rhythm Boys, Mills Brothers, Orioles and a bunch .... I recccomend them all!
