Favorite Song Lyrics of All Time. What Say You? Dylan, Springsteen, Patti Smith, Lennon/McCartney and King/Goffin- now we're talkin'! Then thing that always amazed me about Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow is that Gerry Goffin wrote the lyrics so amazingly from a female perspective. | |
Favorite Song Lyrics of All Time. What Say You? I'm not selling molasses I'm not pushing tea I don't appeal to the masses and they don't appeal to me I'm not peddling fiction I'm not packaging youth I've got a predilection for the truth Quite a diatribe against the record industry and the dumb... | |
Favorite rock/pop male voices Ha ha, just kidding! I'd add Richie Havens and Steve Forbert. | |
Favorite rock/pop male voices Geddy Lee? | |
What artists can you not get enough of? Or merely a shadow of their former self! | |
What artists can you not get enough of? I guess I meant pale imitation! | |
What artists can you not get enough of? This list certainly betrays the age of the posters! I think that Led Zeppelin is frequently mentioned because Robert Plant had the good sense to stop before they weren't very good anymore. If I were to list artists, it would be "early" Springste... | |
Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Dylan, Springsteen, Joni Mitchell, Prince, Miles Davis, The Beatles? Well, I guess there's no accounting for taste. I think with some of the Springsteen haters, it's political. It's hard for me to imagine someone not being moved by the songs on... | |
Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Although I agree with the dopey hair bands being bad, most of these lists suggest what is preferred is listening to pretty sounds with little genuine meaning or artistry. | |
Vinyl sounds better (shots fired) I don't get the meme, but you are correct! | |
$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ? I would listen to Vandersteen and Monitor Audio. Different sounding, but both leaders in floor standing speakers that are not stratospherically priced. | |
The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? Great topic, BTW. I also saw Paul Simon "open" for Bob Dylan. Simon was still doing the Graceland stuff with a big band and Ladysmith Black Mambazo. We actually considered leaving after that, but to our surprise, Dylan was ON that night, and di... | |
The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? The Schaefer Music Festival was an outdoor concert series in Central Park, NYC, that had very random pairings. The most (in)famous was in 1974, when Bruce Springsteen opened for Anne Murray, who had a hit song with "Snowbird"! The following year,... | |
2025 Rock-N-Roll Hall Of Fame Nominees Complete bullshit, all about record sales. Mariah Carey, but no Smiths, Squeeze, Graham Parker... I could go on and on. | |
Can I assemble a decent system out of these components I also think it would be nice to keep some of your father's equipment! |
