@sbank @noromance et. al.--you guys are on a hot streak--two bit monsters, roy harper, pjharvey all classics. @slaw, i've tried to get into the mountain goats for years (i probably own more records of his than anyone i don't really like)--he's a very smart guy and an excellent writer, but he just ain't musical, even if the sonics on his 4ad stuff sound good. agree with you on goat's head soup, tho. my picks: cracker, kerosense hat--never loved camper van beethoven, which had too many jam band instincts, but i think cracker is kinda unfairly maligned--they're melodic as hell and capable of the odd classic like "movie star" swervedriver, future ruins--these guys haven't missed a beat in the 20 years since their debut--shoegaze without the wankery great unwashed, singles--i notice this 5-song 12" is going for $100-$500 on discogs--seems like a stretch but it is great stuff |
@loomisjohnson - I like Kerosene Hat. Try these 2 tunes from Camper Van Beethoven. They are most excellent IMHO... Camper Van Beethoven - "Camp Pendleton" from the album - "El Camino Real" Camper Van Beethoven - "Northern California Girls" from the album - "La Costa Berdida" If you do take a listen, let me know what you think, even if you don't like them. They have been perennials on my Spotify Playlist for years. |
@bslon +1 Appreciate your posts being concise and unpretentious. It appears you have a vast amount of 1970's OP classic rock recordings which is somewhat of a weak link in my collection. If possible, adding a SQ rating would be invaluable for me and many others. |
