What Are You Listening To - The Reckoning

[westhuller]

Yes but does it make you want to shake your cosmic thing?

It makes something shake ! Seriously I have listened to £10000 + hard drive based systems and still nothing can come close to reproducing the seperation and musicality of a decent vinyl setup. Yes the hairs did stand up on the back of my neck when I listened to it, was a bit pricey but worth every penny.

The Beatles - Rubber Soul

 

Absolute pop masterpiece

 

Far and way my favourite Beatles album.

This morning, I was listening to Radio 4's Colin Paterson had a total Partridge moment on the Oscars' red carpet this morning. "BONO! BONO! BONO! BONO! BONO! BONO! BONO! BONO!"

Not their best but a fine album nonetheless.

77 is my favourite but it's up there, some great song writing with the title track the standout for me on Little Creatures.

77 is a superb album as were most of the others. I don't think they released a dud until Naked.

I think it is as a result of personal relationships / memories rather than the music

 

But I would rather have my plums poached than listen to David Byrne and any of his works.

 

I fully appreciate that is my loss, but so it must remain.

Most of my music makes me feel old, I remember first hearing it and thought it sounded like nothing I had heard before. It still sounds fresh now.

No sooner than I had typed 'sucker' the ad at the type of the screen suggested I might like to invest in some property in Nigeria.

Jonoco, were you at this one? http://www.metalforcesmagazine.com/site/live-review-christmas-on-earth-festival-13-12-87/

The Georgia Satelites which has to be played very loud to be fully appreciated.

I surely was pal. Voi Vod were supposed to play but didn't. Top band that day were the Cro Mags and if I was pushed I would say it was the best live show I have ever seen. The original Cro Mags with John Joseph and Harley Flanagan absolutely tore it up and IMO blew everyone off the stage. Megadeth were ok but I aren't sure if Chris Poland had left by then so it wouldn't surprise me if that's why they weren't that great. ..not bad though.

Edit: Poland had left and imo Megadeth were never as good. His jazzy style really made that group imo.

And I do recall the sound being bad for some bands and the toilets being disgusting but then it was a bus station.

 

I've still got the Megadeth t-shirt with the blue logo from this gig. I travelled down overnight from Edinburgh after spending the preceding 3 months trying to persuade my mum to let me go, and by the time I got home I don't think I'd slept for about 3 days. I agree with you, the Cro-Mags were awesome. I think that was the first time I experienced a circle mosh. Got more than a few elbows in the face and ribs during that set! I think my favourite band of the day were Kreator though, but I was *really* into them at the time. I think the worst thing about the venue was the lack of a bar though, that was unforgivable!
