Click 302 Report post Posted October 23, 2019 If you want two recommendations, Dave's album Psychodrama is great, (from the UK) and NF's new album, The Search (from the USA) are two examples of good albums of rapers that have come out this year.

Visconti *made* Bolan what he was. He then thought he was the star and knew best and ignored Visconti’s advice. Resulting in a career nosedive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EssexRL 1,110 Report post Posted October 27, 2019 Definitely Pink Floyd. Like rugby union I try to like them every so often - I play Dark Side of Moon - but nope don’t get it. Ty Segall is a more up to date one. Really should like given my music taste but nope leaves me cold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Resulting in a career nosedive. I think you may have missed my point, Visconti over produced subsequent albums, Bolan was off his trolley and trying to ride his wave of T-rexctaciy for all it was worth. Slider would have been a far better album had not been over produced. Visconti did very subtle stuff on Electric Warrior, stuff that Bolan didn't even know he had done, when it came to Slider he pushed the subtle stuff to the front. Bolan was off his head by then but that is another story.

I just take it as read that nobody actually likes Pink Floyd. They just say they do and then put on something fun when no one else is around. 2 1 Quote Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

How is River Deep Mountain High a ‘power ballad’? A powerful performance ok but not pompous. Phil Spector may be a bit of a loon but I’d struggle to think of a better produced record by him. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
