How do you like that?  Sounds like a last gasp of eighties angst.

It's just "AOR", hard rock and pop fused together perfectly. I didn't used to like FM, but I guy I know is really into them and he likes the same stuff as me, so I decided to give them another whirl. I would still call them the poor man's Giant though...

I've been listening to this one in my truck so much...



...that my kids already know the lead song "Rock N Roll is the Answer" by heart and I've overheard them singing it to themselves around the house. I'm an awesome parent!  :bouncegiggle:

Oh, there's no doubt GIANT is better.

SERGE GAINSBOURG aux armes et caetera


THE BEATLES "white album"
 

I wrote this two years ago:
I got to know RAVEL's solo piano oeuvre from the composer's pupil on the seminal 1961 recordings (minus a few then unpublished pieces).  I have, of course, a couple of versions of the oeuvre as VLADO PERLEMUTER recorded them again in the late 1970s.  I discovered RAVEL more than 30 years ago.  I was very young, but, I understood and appreciated the music immediately.   :thumbup: :smile:  This is JEAN-YVES THIBAUDET whom I want so badly in my low-road human nature to label a hack, but, he is in fact, a very talented pianist who needs to listen to other pianists to better understand nuance, or Expressionism.  I expect JEAN-YVES is deliberately trying to play RAVEL differently than VLADO PERLEMUTER.  My response would be there is only one way to play any piece of music perfectly.   :smile:



Here's new commentary: JEAN-YVES THIBAUDET does well on the later, most expressive pieces, and has at least listened to VLADO PERLEMUTER.  VLADO is there.  And JEAN-YVES.
