Same except Pantomime Horse which blows away anything else they did later. The have a ton of great songs though.

Its fine. Its like a lot of music books where itll describe a scene, describe the bands, describe the people in the bands and move on. Its more of a survey, like the contortiond were.... 3 pages, lydia lunch was....3 pages, pere ubu were....3 pages. Its good if u want an overview

That comparison worked against them for me

Best music books are imo -
our band could be your life by michael azerrad
High fidelity by nick hornby (lol)
The peter guralnick elvis books
Bass culture by lloyd bradley

These are the ones that stand out to me but i havent read a ton

Our band could be your life id recommend to anyone - its more than a music book

Madonna A Rebel Life biography might be the best ive ever read. and only got like 75% through it anyway before setting it aside for later

Cool, i just bought. Ill let you know what i think, you know i had immaculate top 10 on my 90s list (i think)

Oh i told my dad about our list stuff so him and his brother made their own top 100 lists, this is my dads lol. His favorite artist is bill callahan. I think they limited to 3 albums per artist.

@Galaxy well get him on the next one

The only stuff on my dads list i can say i put him on is neu and fiona and astral weeks. Rest is him lol

My biggest discovery after he sent me this was joan armatrading - she had the juice

Cowboy Carter unexpected

Neil Diamond live album

3 Nick Cave albums get him in the fam

my parents couldnt even crank out a top 5 albums of all time list let a lone a top 100

Cowboy carter is my mothers influence they both like that album

Chill with the neil disrespect hes big in my family

Nick cave i never wanna hear again the amount of nick cave i had to hear in the car growing up im good

My pops has good music taste tho
Belle and sebastian and post 99 lips were massive favorites in my parents car when i was a yout

They have a more consistent quality discography than some of the other Britpop bands, but I really only tend to go back to some stand out tracks. Something like Beetlebum is pretty incredible.

One neil diamond thing is how the red sox sing sweet caroline

Like to me when i was a kid and s*** neil diamond was new york, but this was before i came to america, just listening to him through my parents

Like i associate neil diamond with new york as much as i associate paul simon and lou reed

So the sweet caroline red sox thing was always odd to me

real af for Ummagumma and Sinnead O Connor. Great list

There is no next one

listening to the white album again just makes me realize that I vastly prefer this era of McCartney to Lennon's. Paul had such a clarity and others were holding him back venturing too much into camp.

This post has to be satire

@Riffwanker

Saw you finally peeped Brain Damage, man I only seen it once or twice but I love that movie haha

The bj scene

that 9million album is nice, shoegaze with a jam band vibe slaps tbh
