Did you hear the Bedemon one I posted. It’s sinister as f***. Certainly the darkest and heaviest sounding song I’ve heard from 74.

yeah I did. just wish it wasnt so lo-fi.

I know you’re still a Roy Wood skeptic, but his album Mustard from 75 might be the one to win you over. It’s much closer to the Wizzard stuff and he flexes his pop songwriting “wizardry” (for lack of a better word) so hard—that he ends up pushing into Brian Wilson x Todd Rundgren territory.

well we have pentagram for the stuff thats like Bedemon except a bit less lo fi and these are also 1974

Haha yea one hellova song

@Elric nice rec

can I just listen to the album?

yes strongly recommend it unless youre against hearing the couple songs from 1976 mixed in there

I listened to Rocks while I was out tonight and yeah that was definitely their most consistent. It pushes further into their core sound, but in a way that actually works for me. It’s like the songs are almost about to break at the seams at times. Nobody’s Fault is a killer example of that. The closer is also just a perfect cathartic moment after so much adrenaline.

I f*** with that last one. I love the way he sings “it’s been too long”, it’s like a moodier Hendrix meets Morrison.

Did you check out his out yet @snowboy

Yeah nobody's fault is one of their best and heaviest ever

Anyone checked out the Flo & Eddie stuff? They’re the Turtles guys who ended up in Mothers of Invention for a while.

best thread on kaydeedeetwo, the recs be hitting

Blowing your Aerosmith wad like this instead of slowly marinating though

If we were ever gonna become real fans that's how

Doubt there's any other threads on here that have so much great music posted on every page

well it started my outlaw country arc so i ain't gonna complain

waylon

ngl I haven't heard another Waylon song that moves me like this 1964 single

that ending might just have to do a discog deep dive at some point, right now i just got those two records from 74 in rotation but the 75 release seems dope too.

He was definitely trying to do a dramatic Roy Orbison/Conway Twitty type ballad and he nailed it.

i'll take your word for it, 50's/60's s*** is kind of a blindspot for me, besides the obvious stuff and like idk jazz i guess

you know the thread is popping when Pentagram pops up
