its not a hot day in January

they're like 6 years behind the curve but I like it lol

yeah and like i said really could be any year from late 60s up until the mid 70s when most/all of the artists were assumedly killed during the khmer rouge genocide

fascist propaganda (snowboy might still be lurking)

havent been able to marinate on all this Latin American music nearly enough

will sound weird but the atmosphere of tracks like this remind me of the first scene from Andrei Rublev transcendent levels of peaceful calm

well youll still be marinating on that next year because he didnt have an album in 1974. maybe thats time to go back and marinate on all the previous ones too

the marination process is lifelong

yeah im gonna have to throw some of these on the backlog just as they're starting to grow

We’re almost 2 weeks into the new year. It’s time to move on.

Los Van Van is great from the stuff ive heard so far. looks like they were important throughout a lot of eras too

Loudon, Judee and Cockney Rebel songs you put me on ranking respectably

Did you listen to Roadmaster much? Always neglected it I guess because No Other is hot on its heels but it's a lowkey opus too. Grew on me immensely, finally.

Yeah it’s great. In a Misty Morning and Full Circle Song are incredible. I’m not as high on No Other as you are, but we’ve talked about that before. I still think it’s great though. I just struggle sometimes with the songwriting style. It feels so big and all encompassing, but I’m left slightly anxious as songs build and never release. Maybe I’m boring, but I like Gene doing more straightforward singer/songwriter stuff like For a Spanish Guitar.

Probably posted already, but I been partying harder than Neil Young at The Last Waltz over the month or twelve.

In terms of 1974.. we have a winner in my mind.

the good chicks like it

the bad chicks like it

the ugly ones like it

Maybe ressurecting Sergio Leone and making a movie about it might shift the paradigm 'cause he had the midas touch. Even gets his props for ripping of Kurosawa.

also Shooting Star

yeah the songs are lofty but they work. taps into the same feeling only Bob, Neil and Ray can for me.

Iggy surviving the 60s and 70s is living proof that miracles are true

Dude even said that,

"when I pass the embalmed process has already taken place"

Dude was dealing with the upper-echelon of plugs

How many people died trying to party like Iggy, Keef and Ozzy they're invincible
