Banta Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I love Evanescence. I've been listening to their first CD, Origin for the past week or so. Fallen is wonderful. http://ebassist.com/users/banta/images/origin.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73 P Bass Posted April 27, 2004 Share Posted April 27, 2004 I was getting really tense on Saturday, so I put Bob Marley "Babylon by Bus" on; worked like a charm. It was the first thing I heard when I left for work today. Nice. "Start listening to music!". -Jeremy C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squeennyzim Posted April 27, 2004 Share Posted April 27, 2004 TV on the Radio - Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes Coming from someone who reviewed over 200 cds in the last 2 semesters, this is one of the best CDs of the past year, and indeed that I've ever heard. It's slightly experimental, driving beats, horns, and some of the most amazing vocals this side of Steely Dan, just aimed in a slightly different direction. Doo-wop style vocals and with some of the most bizarre and poetic lyrics I've ever heard. This is simply awesome. Mike Doughty and Soul Coughing Still one of the most underappreciated bands of all time. Doughty was the lead singer for Soul Coughing and has been doing some awesome acoustic "small rock" solo stuff. Soul Coughing still holds up awesomely and kufala.com just released 5 double disc live albums of theirs which I snapped up and which are incredible. As I was going up the stairs I met a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today I wish, I wish he'd go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebrownbass Posted April 29, 2004 Author Share Posted April 29, 2004 Chicago, "Hot Streets." Peter Cetera is amazing, and this album features an amazing thing...there's a cut with NO wind players! Bread, "Manna." Prince, "Musicology." The man understands the beat, by golly. Phil Collins, "Hits." Okay, so he's a syrupy hits-makers. However, he's hired the greatest bass players around to record with....on this one album you'll hear Lee Sklar, Pino Pallidino and Nathan East...plus a couple of others.

musicalhair Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 The Who, Who's Next ("deluxe ed" with some extra tunes on a second CD) The Who Live At The Isle Of Wright Hendrix First Rays of the New Rising Sun Jefferson "Starship" live at BB King's NYC Holloween Show from 2000 Jefferson "Starship" live at the Bottom Line from like 2002. I took my kids to see Jefferson Starship friday night-- but it is not what you think, so don't flame me till you read on. Paul Kantner was one of the founders of Jefferson Airplane and he still tours sometimes with Marty Balin, apparently Jack don't come out with him any more and plays exclusively with Jorma (too bad, I like Jack with Paul a lot). Diana Mangano replaces Grace Slick (chick can siiiiiing!). They played a bunch of Paul's science fiction type songs while the movie 2001 A Space Odyssey played on a screen in back of them. Most of the tunes were from one if their 1971 albums (Blows Against the Empire) and the "follow up" from like 1986 or so (Planet Earth Rock and Roll Orchestra) and some Airplane stuff. None of the Mickey Thomas corporate rock stuff. Anyway after the show the kids each got a CD they were selling, which were of live shows. The cool thing is that by sending in the ticket stubs (and $3 shipping and handling) we'll get a disk from the show we saw. It seems pretty cool to me anyway-- they played well that night, played a lot of my favorite songs as I loved both those albums and The kids will have a momento from their first concert. They see Richie Havens in a couple of weeks, maybe the who at Madison Square Garden too. check out some comedy I've done: http://louhasspoken.tumblr.com/ My Unitarian Jihad Name: Brother Broadsword of Enlightened Compassion.

martianrebel Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Lots of The Hip. I was in HMV the other week and they had a 3 for $30 sale (which would be about a buck fitty in USD). Anyhoo, I picked up 3 Tragically Hip CD's that I'd always meant to get, but never got around to buying. If you've never heard these guys, pick up any one of their CDs. "Road Apples", "Fully Completely" and "Up To Here" are PACKED with great music, and many of the tracks have been hit singles here in Canada. Now they're in constant rotation in the Lincoln. Although, once it's fully pimped out, I'll have to play nothing but George Clinton or P.E. in that bad mutha. -{m}- What's these knobs for? http://www.martianrebel.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basshappi Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Been listening to lots of stuff for setlists. But one of the songs is "Like a Stone" by Audioslave and I liked that one so I went out and bought it. Good stuff. Also I recently discovered that on Frank Marino\'s Website You are able to stream ALL the tunes from ALL of his albums! so needless to say I've been practically living there! Check it out ya'll!

_Sweet Willie_ Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Of recent I've been revisiting Sade's Promise CD. So smooth. The bass work is really terrific, and I love Sade's voice. I've also been enjoying some good ol' '70s jazz-funk on Spirit Man by keyboardist Weldon Irvine. (That righteous vibe helped me complete a draft of one of my dissertation chapters this morning. ) Peace. --SW spreadluv Fanboy? Why, yes! Nordstrand Pickups and Guitars.

Thomas Wilburn Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I never really listened to Rush before. Just out of curiousity, I picked some up and started learning the basslines last night.

_Sweet Willie_ Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 I bought Weather Report's 8:30 this morning. I've been greatly enjoying it today. Jaco is certainly impressive, but I've got to give props to Wayne, who is blowing hard and well at this performance. "A Remark You Made" is beautiful. Peace. --SW spreadluv Fanboy? Why, yes!

haggard Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 I heard Roberta Flack's "First time ever I saw your face". So simple but delicious, I love the interaction of female voice and bass w/o further instrumentation... You even forgive the old recording quality. Then My "Best of B Marley and the Wailers", Living Color "Time's up" and Sting's "Sacred Love", as I'll be attending this last concert soon.

bassopotamus Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 lately, hmmmm... modest mouse (saw them live in portland last month! incredible show!) is still the object of my rabid obsession. but I heard some sonic youth the other day that just blew my mind... kim is smokin! I also heard Cooper temple clause for the first time, and they have an interesting, eclectic sound. primus is a newfound obsession too; I hadnt heard much of their stuff before but I knew les was at the top etc. But I really like their style. I got the DVD with all their videos on it, and its really cool. Lots of extra footage and bonus stuff. It was informative seeing how their music evolved throughout the years. I love discovering music for the first time! James Fitzgerald Platinum Member, Human Race "I dont buy toys. I buy tools." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
