We can be uncool together then, Ryo. I do YSI if you would like to send it that way? Or is SendSpace something different... that would be brilliant. I'm always open to new sounds if it means I'm one step closer to being one of the cool kids  |

Being uncool is what all the cool people do these days anyway. Sendspace is just like ysi, except you don't need an account for it. I'll upload them tomorrow and pm you the link. No need to lie to me if you end up hating it, if I can take it from Holzman, I can take it from you  |

Oh excellent, thanks Ryo! Oh don't worry - I won't take account of your feelings in my assessment Being uncool is what all the cool people do these days anyway.This is true. You can get away with anything in the name of 'irony' these days. |

RE: The Allman Brothers - The real genius of the Allman Bros. is in the guitar of Duane Allman, They done some really good stuff after brother Duane's passing but nothing truly genius. The obvious place to start is Fillmore East. The absolute peak. You can get Beginings, which is the first two albums on one disc if you want to try a less wanky start but the wank is where it's at with the Allman's. When Duane slides in and starts making his weird cowardly lion face, Barry and the drummers lock in...but not into a stagnant rhythm, The Allmans ain't just hanging back for the gee-tar solo, no sir, they're playing jazz. The whole band becomes a living, breathing monster. You gotta here them live. It's the way it was meant to be. That was beautiful. DED gets a free shot of bourbon. |

You know that this is the thread for you if you get excited of the prospect of this album being released:  I heard this ages ago at my uncle's- acoustic singer/songwriter-stuff not unlike Fogelberg/JT. Look forward to the reacquaintance with songs like I Am Mercury. Dude had something about him. |

Just listened to some samples of him now as I'm completely unfamiliar with the guy. Know who his vocal style reminded me of? John Denver. Read some rabid comments on his work too -- bitch that he was killed fairly young.

yup, it posts here...funny that the other one shows the times when i TRIED to post but no new subject matter...
ok, old man music board!
sounds appropriate somehow
ok, i saved this one to word, hopefully it won't break this one too =>
a WEALTH of music last night and today (i'm C&ping what i wrote elsewhere):
beeswing, have you maybe seen the couple of thompson things which were recorded from this year's caribbean music cruise?
I've got good friends who went or i'd never known such a thing existed...they're naturally BIG richard thompson fans of course.
i chanced upon them when i stumbled onto sugarmegs 'latest additions' url (fr that RnR fetish-site, i think)and yeah, they're 40kbps wma files, quite lossy, but well recorded aud's of very well-mixed shows>
of course this means they were also seeded most likely at dime in a good format.
mmm, makes me wonder if any 'dimers' here are RT fans....:
with thompson playing a VERY nice ELECtric show.
goes expectedly psychedelic a few times as well...'hard on me' is wow!
...and then :
good god THIS show is wonderful - we've had the acoustic vs electric RT discussion before, but this one recharges my enthusiasm for hearing 'the great one' alone with his guitar - but this here is a unique situation.
imagine, THIS was a cruise with a large group of musicians, RT being one among them, everyone's just walking to the pool to restaurants, and you're all just interacting and relaxing with various people you've seen and admired while performing...and now for a 10-12 day stretch, you're also 'just folks' enjoying holiday together.
and then they PLAY for you!
check the star-strucked-ness at the dock and this has GOT to be a wonderful experience, that is if you're the type of person who can find common ground to talk to someone like RT.
either way, this setting accomplishes in producing the MOST wonderful solo RT show i think i have ever heard.
it's like he's just playing for a bunch of friends...which IS what he normally tries for, but here it is SO genuine.
at least listen to that in this 40kbps wma even.
truth be told, i just DL the rundgren/ian hunter show taht edge put up in flac, nearly 1G-worth, and i swear that the quality of these 2 sugarmegs shows is easily at least as good as that. and they're each a 20M dl...
search 'richard+thompson+trio'
@
h**p://74.108.129.122/Default.aspx
and the acoustic show came up here among a slew of other interesting 'new arrivals":
h**p://74.108.129.122/latestadditions.aspx
~
and right now i've got the BEST rock and roll band ever, playing a 'new' version of a recording so many people (me incl!) say is one the best live rawk recordings in history - going back to late 1973....
NOW playing, the suBLIME:
Lou Reed
Academy Of Music
1973.12.21
(version 2)
1. Intro-Sweet Jane [08:17]
2. How Do You Think It Feels (Previously Unreleased) [03:43]
3. Caroline Says I (Previously Unreleased) [03:55]
4. I’m Waiting for the Man (Previously Unreleased) [03:59]
5. Lady Day [03:43]
6. Heroin [12:52]
7. Vicious (Previously Unreleased) [05:57]
8. Satellite of Love (Previously Unreleased) [05:54]
9. Walk On the Wild Side (Previously Unreleased) [04:57]
10. Oh Jim (Previously Unreleased) [10:38]
11. Sad Song (Previously Unreleased) [07:29]
12. White Light White Heat [05:02]
13. Rock’n'Roll [10:07]
i'd always though other shows with the hunter-wagner juggerfucking NAUT from this tour were scarce - i've now found a french site where the guy's got SIXTEEN shows from 1973 - though the hunter-wagner band only came together later that year.
at one time i only had 'phantom RnR animal' from copenhagen which was cool but sound was so-so. hearing them develop the arrangements that are now so familiar from having heard the original RnR animal album 1000s of times, ooooh, how i love that!
....NOW, i've got an october set from the rainbow theater in london and a '5+' star rated one from newcastle i still haven't listened to yet...whew!
