Curtis Mayfield Live is an awesome album in the true sense. It's about the whole thing, not any particular song.

[St. Lou Stu]

The Les Claypool Flying Frog Brigade - Live Frogs Set 2 (Set 1 is also decent)

[bigpedunn]

One is hard to do , James Taylor Mud Slime Slime was good last night!!!!!!

[bigpedunn]

mud slime slim (correction)

Mud slime slim and the blue horizon

[taltos]

Has to be two albums, both jazz, Dave Brubeck Quartet Time Out, many experinments with time signatures, most notable song was probably Take Five; the other would be Miles Davis *****es Brew, straight avant guarde jazz. Honorable mentions would be most anything by Jon Luc Ponte or Michael Urbaniak, both jazz violin.

[sikk50]

Crumb - Romance is a Slow Dance
On Broken Wing - Its All a Long Goodbye
Danzig - Danzig


Some more, if you haven't noticed most of what I listen to and will be posting in here is for the hardcore in you

7) "Led Zeppelin II" by Led Zeppelin
8) "Costello Music" by The Fratellis

The list goes on and on...I spend more time listening too music than I do sleeping...

I keep seeing Elton's "Mad Man" mentioned, but I much prefer his "Tumbleweed Connection" to any other album he has ever done. Just , and worth every penny.

Don't get me wrong..."Tumbleweed Connection" is a better album in my opinion as well, but, I have more of an attachment to both "Mad Man" and "Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road." I was raised listening to a lot of EJ..."Blue Moves" and "Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy" are also favorites of mine..."Amoreena" is such a great track...

[The Poet]

Well, it's good to know I'm not considered completely nutz in that, brother!


Oh, another essential album is Blind Faith (I've forgotten either the name of the group or the album's, but I can't remember which ), especially the one with the "dirty" cover.

Would like to recommend a couple more favorites.
1)Return To The Tomb Of Guiliano Medidici by Restavrant.
"This Texas duo’s raging garage punk influenced swamp rock that guarantees a good night out. Banjos, guitars, and some extremely interesting percussion (oil drums, boxes, license plates & whatever else they can pull from the local dumpster!…) plus a heaping spoonful of hillbilly = GOOD TIMES. "
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swQd_thOdw8

2)Other Way Out/Other Way In by Sun Dial.
would be considered psychedelic rock.
This was something I stumbled onto awhile back and feel in love with.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMlF6_DxdSo

3)Unknown Pleasures, Closer and Substance (for "Love Will Tear Us Apart")by Joy Division.
Would fall into the post-punk category. Started around from 1976 to through 1980 with the death (suicide of the singer Ian Cutis).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PldpBJEn4vQ

Hard to mention Joy Division and not New Order.
4)International by New Order. New Order was a New Wave band that formed from the remaining members of Joy Division after Ian's death. The single Blue Monday is one of the top selling singles in the UK. Still enjoy putting on some New Order from time to time. Both bands were connected to one of the most bizarre record companies ever, Factory Records. If you liked either bands I would suggest the movie "24 Hour Party People".

5) Dress for Excess and Flaunt It by Sigue Sigue Sputnik.
They're a New Wave band but also called cyberpunk (love that).
Great tunes with layered vocals, electronics, great samples synthesizer bass lines and more.

Never heard of Restavrant or Sun Dial. They are both very, very good. I an leaning more towards the Restavrant. Too bad they don't have a downloadable album that I can find on CD Baby or the rest. Looks like I'll be old-fashioned and get the CDs. Thanks for the links!

Almost as good as cake?

[LasciviousXXX]

This thread has done wonders for me lately.

Getting some great music from Jazz to Hardcore to Rock and everything in between. Thank you all. I am having so much fun with this.

Oh and I can I be a huge Alice In Chains fan and never have heard of Mad Season???? What's wrong with me? LOL

Kicking this back up for some more action.

So far I've become addicted to Mofro and the White Stripes. Lisa is totally digging the White Stripes, too. I was surprised to see they did the song on Napoleon Dynamite. I'd have never put that together.
Incredible duo, it's hard to believe all that talent comes out of a divorced husband and wife. It's a damned fine thing to see.

I'll add these two nuggets...
Blue Orchid - The White Stripes
My Doorbell - The White Stripes
Those two videos are easily in my top ten videos of all time. I'm not sure who did them, but I'd love to see more of their work. The imagery in Blue Orchid is incredible, the whole video plays like a ton of black and white stills.
The Little Rascals theme in Doorbell is too cool.

Couple of favorites of mine Scott.

Never paid any attention to the White Stripes until I heard "My Doorbell" on a progressive radio station a couple years ago. I missed the lead-in so I had no idea who the artist was, but found out and bought "Get Behind Me Satan". Album blew me away, besides the 2 songs you mentioned, some other great ones: "Denial Twist", "As Ugly As I Seem", etc. Been a big WS fan ever since.
