Music - what are people listening to now?

Post by **Guess** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 7:21 pm

I still like to listen to top quality lead guitar. There were many in the seventies but they seemed to disappear for a while.

This is my current favorite metal guitarist.

Buckethead. If anybody's not heard him try Soothsayer first.

Has anyone listened to Jonny Cash singing 'Hurt' It makes my teeth itch its sooo moving. It has a real good vibe to it. I'm not a big Jonny fan but this song is just brilliant. Don't bother to listen to the Nine Inch Nails original version as it's not nearly as good compared to the Cash version...

Thank you for that, Randy - I thought you might be taking the mickey, but when I heard it I was very surprised.

I didn't know the song, but I'd advise anyone to listen to the NIN track, just to compare it with the Cash version.

Kermit the Frog I'd leave out altogether...

Yep - quality.

Thanks for that, Randy. I don't know much about Cash's music, but that was good.
It inspired me to look at Youtube again and here's one:

I'm going through all the Stone Roses I can find.
Now, where's "No more monkey business"? Ian Brown. I've got the CD, but I'd like to see some of the songs visually.
I'll get the Ryder brothers and Bez on soon.

As I seem to be in this kind of mood, here's some more Ian Brown - with one of the Oasis blokes.

Ian Brown wasn't half a moody so-and-so. Enjoyed a scrap. But wrote and sung some decent music, IMHO.

OK - last one as my ballroom days are over, Baby. I knew Bez would get out of his cage:

Ian Browns best 2 tunes by far.

Post by **lomuamart** » Thu Sep 25, 2008 3:01 pm

I can't get the first one.
Never realised that Ian Brown had made some more music after "No More Monkey Business". What is/are the album titles?

Post by **BaaBaa.** » Thu Sep 25, 2008 3:32 pm

Hes done 5 + a best of.

Unfinished Monkey Business (1998)
Golden Greats (1999)
Music of the Spheres (2001)
Solarized (2004)
The Greatest (Best Of) (2005)
The World Is Yours (2007)

First track was F.E.A.R, his best track by a Mile, I'll change the link and try it again.

A friend loaded Music of the Spheres for me a while ago.
I havn't listened to it. Didn't know it was Ian Brown. Thanks for the other album names.

BaaBaa,
I've just noticed that F.E.A.R is the first track. The album's been sitting on my computer for months.
Whoops

Great track, I've not listened to the whole Album for a long time though.

ADVISORY WARNING:
This is Shaun Ryder at his best/worst. The clip contains bad language and alternative views on religion.
As he composed the album "It's Great When You're Straight . Yeah" by Black Grape, I would assume he went through some other low periods in his life.
I used to play this song very loudly in my bar years ago. The girls loved it, but I doubt they understood what it was about. Heaven knows what The Japanese thought:

Wish I could even learn a few chords. Anyway for about 30 years, this man has been my hero:
