First tape i ever owned. Did a bunch of chores for an older kid down the street so he would buy it for me because i knew my parents wouldn't let me have it.

Beastie Boys-License to Ill was the first tape i ever bought.

These two would be 1/2 interchangeably on any given day to date in my lifetime depending on my mood.

I saw a band this weekend


Jan 14, 2019, 3:04 PM

Last time I saw them they played a lot of Sublime..this time it sounded like a phish/widespread cover binge.

It was terrible. Between the songs that just drone on and on, the unintelligible words..it attracts this kinda nonsense:

I had a smoked pork chop prior to that


Jan 14, 2019, 3:11 PM

and a few beers. I didn't know I needed psycho active drugs to enjoy the music.

A friend was sitting in with the band..even he said it was bad.

But seriously, there was ONE great rock and roll LP in the 80s and it was by GnR. Oh how they could have been the next Stones, but it was not to be.

As far as great albums, but not necessarily rock and roll, I'd say:

U2 classics including War (my fave) and the Joshua Tree
Duran Duran - DD, Rio
Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
Big Country - The Crossing
The Police had several - Ghost, Zenyatta, Sync

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg2016_nascar_champ.gif flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I'd say the next Led Zeppelin, but yeah..nope.

Slash is still awesome though. There may not be a better riff-scale than this:

Jane's Addiction is the biggest reason I went to the first


Jan 15, 2019, 9:20 AM

Lollapalooza. Their set was freaking spectacular. As a matter of fact, the entire lineup was fantastic, and Ice T & Bodycount was the band that blew the lid off the festival. Siouxsie and the Banshees followed Ice T and most of the place laid down and took a nap during their set, LOL.

Jan 14, 2019, 2:49 PM

Hey Alexa, play the Talking Heads' discography from Remain in Light through Naked. Then "The Name of...." and then "Stop Making Sense"

After you are done, play Dire Straits - Alchemy.

is the best?

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-jospehg.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Of the '80s albums, Yes. I am also a fan of True Stories


Jan 14, 2019, 3:04 PM

but to be honest, give me any of them. That band could write some great tunes. Love David Byrne. Saw him last May and am VERY MUCH hoping he tours again this year in the Southern USA.

I've got many favorites off all those albums. Fela's Riff off the Remain in Light outtakes is PHENOMENAL.

2024 purple level memberringofhonor-greenr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Thriller.

Jan 14, 2019, 2:54 PM

it's hard for me to make a better/worse distinction between

Murmur
Life's Rich Pageant
Fables of the Reconstruction / Reconstruction of the Fables

I would add for consideration:
Full Moon Fever - Tom Petty
Joshua Tree - U2 (this one is a given imo)
Appetite for Destruction - Guns n’ Roses
Midnight Oil - Diesel and Dust
Thriller
