Music: What are you listening to today? - Page 249 - The Lounge Discussion and Review on Literature, Arts, Culture

In terms of post Beatles music careers I would rate Harrisons’ easily the best. McCartney and Lennon are close, both did a lot of good work, offset by unlistenable drivel. I would just give Macca the edge, his unlistenable drivel is generally easier to spot early, saving on ear wear. I would not attempt to rate Ringo, he is just Ringo, a natural force beyond human understanding.

The catch is, Primus is just as likely to show up in Yo-Yo Ma's next ensemble as anyone.

For some reason youtube has started recommending "some random dude(s) react to"-videos instead of just recommending the songs themselves, so after making the mistake of clicking on one of those videos (since it was about a song I love and hadn't heard in a long time) I have now spent close to an hour going down the rabbit hole of other people reacting to the same song and... I still don't know why I kept clicking...

Anyway - I've spent way too long watching people make silly OMG faces to this song now, so I'm cutting out the middle man and letting ya'll make your own silly faces:

I think we just have to man up and face facts; life is just too good to be true! Plus, Les Claypool belongs on *everybody's* list of top-10 bass-Dobro players.

Leslie West, the towering guitarist who created the hard-rock milestone
“Mississippi Queen” with his band Mountain, died Wednesday morning.

Quote:

West said the song “has just everything you need to make it a winner.
You’ve got the cowbell, the riff is pretty damn good, and it sounds incredible.
It feels like it wants to jump out of your car radio.
To me, it sounds like a big, thick milkshake. It’s rich and chocolatey. Who doesn’t love that?”

Quote:

Mountain scored a high-profile appearance at the
Woodstock festival — on the second day, between Canned Heat and the Grateful Dead.
“I think I had the most amplifiers of anybody there,” West told Rolling Stone in 1989.
“It was paralyzing because that stage, that setting, was some kind of natural amphitheater.
The sound was so loud and shocking that I got scared. But once I started playing, I just kept going because I was afraid to stop.”

Many guitarists have been described as “Making love” to their guitar. Johnny Marr not only does that, he also commits to a long term relationship, and signs up to a generous pre-nup agreement just in case things don’t work out.

I heard this beautifully melodic death cab for cutie song one time. we were tearing up some concrete floor at a nice KC bbq joint on a Sunday, when the restaurant was closed, but some cats were there doing prep os. they played it. almost a ballad or not, but a bit delicate. anyone have a hunch?. never heard it since

Back to more innocent days, when rock musicians who could not provide blood tests proving that they had consumed enough mind altering substances to kill an elephant would not be allowed into the studio.
