What music are you listening to?

Therefor as you listened to Geogaddi first that would have left a more lasting impression than MHTRTC as the two albums are pretty similar in style.

I thought that's what you were on about.

So if I'd have listened to MHTRTC first I would have liked that better?

It's just that I've found other bands, liked an album and then gone through their back catalogue and liked an earlier album better.

I just prefer Geogaddi. The style of that album is different to MHTRTC (to me anyway) and is much more to what I like.

Radio 2 - some God awful bloke whining over a guitar. Janice is on later though.

Im currently listening to Coldplay in concert that was broadcast last night on Radio1.

[greencreeper]

It's a band called The Tears, which is appropriate - enough to make anyone weep

Either way BOC rule and i would chew my arm off for another album.

I've just had a look at that. Listening to the reverse A is to B as B is to C and that seemed weird. There's another bit in there, not the "woods today bit", that I never noticed was backwards.

I liked Geogaddi, but I never dissected their music like some people have on that site

You HAVE to listen to 'Valley Girl' by Zappa - Brilliant, genius etc....

Norah Jones - The Prettiest Thing.

I just love the diversity - the jazz fusion stuff like 'Hot Rats' versus the 'theatrical' stage shows - like 'Live at The Filmore' (of particular note for a version of The Turtles 'Happy Together' as ex members of the band were part of the 'Mothers of Invention', at the time).

Watch 100 motels its bonkers zappa at his craziest

Whats more worrying though - the fact that they do that sort of stuff or that some people have disected it to that level.

Either way - just goes to show you some of the stuff they get upto.

Amazon used to list all the comments made by people on the album below it - but it now only gives you the last 5 entries i think, but people descibed the album of giving them memories of childhood or that if felt like they did when they were a child.

It makes you wonder with loops and samples of "to the woods today" etc embedded in the album if there is a subliminal influence making people think that.

Goldie - Saturnz Returnz, 1st CD.
That hour long track "Mother" is so stunning, it's a work of art.

I'd forgotten just how good it was until I found the album in a box in my cupboard.

Span, they are from scandinavia, they are amazing live! They deserve to be huge!!!

Burn, by Mad at Gravity
Not often into newer bands but these are great.
