Wish I could answer you, but I feel the same way. Some of it may be that you really like Emo, which I'm not much of a fan of to begin with.

As it is, I really like The Suburbs and think it is...

Saw Los Lobos a few weeks ago

I can't do it. I'm lucky if I can tolerate hearing the same song more than a couple of times in one day (or an album for that matter).

Nice topic. I like hearing albums in order when I am listening to an album. I do occasionally hit shuffle for my whole collection, which can be entertaining as well as annoying, usually when a song...

Interesting thread.

One of the most depressing for me is Slide Away by Michael Hutchence, probably because it feels like he is foreshadowing his death/suicide.

I am going to say Jack White specifically. I say that because he is putting out relatively diverse stuff beyond the White Stripes with his other bands and his solo work. I also think his ventures...

Paul Simon,
Sting,
Robert Plant,

I like her music, not as much as I like others, but she is like a happy Fiona Apple, and while I think Fiona Apple is fantastic, she can be a bit depressing to listen to too much.

Nice review, and I agree with your assessment of Money. I like the song, but not in this place. It is one of the few PF tracks that can stand on its own as a single and doesn't benefit from an...

Medeski Martin and Wood in April. They're doing an all acoustic tour except for the date I am going to where they've billed it as all electric.

In some ways, I think Miles Davis was the best at this combining Jazz and Rock to create fusion. At the peak was Bitches Brew, but that and In a Silent Way and Tribute to Jack Johnson led the way...

Is it sad that when I think of the song, I think of the parody cover "Vanna Pick Me a Letter"? That was quite popular in the late 80's when I was in junior high. I hate sometimes that the first...

THis is exactly how I feel... and that album is a great example. As much as I love albums, the first time I hear one, I often focus on songs first. The Suburbs was one that didn't grab me until I...

I'm not sure I can pin-point a favorite, but I definitely like their earlier albums over the later ones, mostly because they are bit rawer. They sound more blues rock. But, I enjoy where they are...

Well, if you are going to expand the scope, then I'd argue that The Who have most bands beat, but a lot of the other bands wouldn't have succeeded without the Beatles and Beach Boys paving the way.

Try On the Corner by Miles Davis or Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock. For more modern, Combustication by Medeski Martin and Wood is a good choice. Acid Jazz, however, is kind of a vague item. I got...
