| Records of the Year 2003 Kana813-A quick check indicates you might be saying thanks for the list,it would be nice to think so.I have one main room,so the TV needs to be there and the room doesn't work reversed. | |
| You used to love it but now....................... Strangely is a lot of the music mentioned Floyd,Yes and Genesis which still hold a lot of magic for me despite my older ears.Zeppelin I've simply never tired of nor have I stopped listening to them for any amount of time in the past 25 years proba... | |
| How many P. Gabriel Special Edition cd were made? Dudeaudio,The UK ones must be different there's no gold lettering above the barcode and the serial numbers look similar amongst the 5 I have with no reference that looks like the run number.Checking I realise 2 and 3 in my collection don't have th... | |
| How many P. Gabriel Special Edition cd were made? Dudeaudio where are you getting the numbers from on the sleeve?I have the same mini-lp sleeves.It's worth noting here in the UK the original batches were returned/withdrawn due to the labels being stuck on the actual covers.Every sleeve I have is ... | |
| Anyone still do insightful or intelligent lyrics? Nrchy-I think the quality of lyrics today are still very good amongst the best artists.Here's a few that spring to mind that haven't been mentioned above.Nick Cave-a true master craftsman when it comes to lyrics.Thom Yorke-Radiohead-post modern at... | |
| I auditioned SACD today Eldartford-I think SACD got it's software sorted out a lot quicker and also I think there was clearly an effort towards Audiophile quality machines on SACD that was totally lacking from the DVD-A camp.As such I'm not sure Audiophiles even had the ... | |
| Records of the Year 2003 Ohlala cheer up mate.It's nice to be nice.Sorry you took my Flaming Lips quip so personally.Nice of you to come back and throw another brick only this time you shouted "asshole" as you ran away.Uninteresting is a good word.So is pointless.So is pe... | |
| Ryan Adams-more than hype Zaikesman I think he is original in spirit which is what I tried to explain badly.I think we take a similar view to artists and I think Adams is honest which is how I'd put.I agree about quantity in those terms (Nick Drake for me) and I again mayb... | |
| Ryan Adams-more than hype Zaikesman-I know very well where you are coming from.I allude to that in my original post.There is not an awful lot of originality per se in his work (when was the last time anybody did anything original in their work for that matter?)but the qual... | |
| Records of the Year 2003 Ohlala I believe you threw a rock and ran away.Poor show. | |
| Norah's new album,,FEB 9th. Can she do it again??? Charliee-Dylan's Heart Of Mine actually comes from Shot Of Love.Sorry to be factual but well.it's Bob....and I know these things. | |
| Norah's new album,,FEB 9th. Can she do it again??? It is guaranteed to sell millions off the back of the popularity of the first record.I wasn't a masssive fan but I didn't hate it either.The first one was one of those mass appeal records whose success probably lies in it's simplicity and it's lai... | |
| Records of the Year 2003 Ohala-I do listen to a wide variety of music some of which is mainstream,some isn't.The more experimental things I bought this year didn't work for me such as Pole,Manitoba and Growing.You might do your list more service with a description of thes... | |
| Ryan Adams-more than hype Laz-arguably Heartbreaker is better than Gold but perhaps Gold is a better starting point for a wider audience,maybe,maybe not.The main point of the thread is that I'm sure many Audiogoners will have missed this guy.I love Strangers Almanac too an... | |
| Records of the Year 2003 Rich nice list,if you read anything I write about Radiohead you'll see I understand any criticism they get.As always you can't get to everything and there's a few on your list I'd like to hear/get.As for reissues/remasters I did another list on Au... |
