    Re: USCHO Music Thread 2: Rock On, Amigo.

    Believe it or not, I've never listened to Mother Love Bone.


    Checking it out now - halfway through and it's definitely well worth the listen.

      They were good; the two-part track at the end of the album (Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns) is the best. Andrew Wood had a lot of songwriting talent.

        Finally got around to it today.

            This morning...

            Pat Metheny: Bright Size Life
            NMU Hockey Since 1976 ...there at the beginning.

            Bill Crawford, LSSU radio announcer, on NMU hockey: "This is their MO right to the tee: get out shot, get out played, keep hangin' in there, just rope-a-dope it in your own zone, get it up the ice, bang it in and win the game."

                My daughter asked me to burn a disc of the Dead for her history teacher. Burned 5-8-77 Barton Hall at Cornell. Went over very well ( I better get an A for the class)

                  Very good choice, of course.


                  A number of years ago an older musician friend (really good guitarist) of mine who was into all things 70 rock and folk (Waits, Dylan etc.) along with the blues and newer stuff... /ramble

                  Okay, he wanted to understand why I was spending so much of my summers seeing this band. He had heard their obvious radio stuff.

                  I made him a copy of that Cornell show (cassettes - 1993-ish) and didn't see him for a couple of weeks. When I did see him, he had been listening to the second set almost daily and was mind-blown. Just keep saying "seamless perfection" over and over.

                  Took him to a few shows in 94 & 95 and while he saw the band at their worst, he still had a great time and got to experience some Dead shows.

                    The Very Best of Chicago: Disc I. One of my favorites in high school (I listened to classic rock at the time, compared to most others). Terry Kath is underrated, and I still resent him for violating the basic tenants of gun safety that led to his stupid death. Sadly, Disc II is mostly their crappy 80s era, save for a couple songs.

                      Darius Rucker's greatest hit:

                      Michigan Tech Huskies Pep Band: There's No Use Trying To Talk. No Human Sound Can Stand Up To This. Loud Enough To Knock You Down.

                            Ted Nugent, self-titled solo debut.

                            Check your politics at the door, it's a classic.

                              Agree on Nugent. Separate the art side from the personal side. I love Rage Against The Machine, but am not in line with many of their political views. Example: Bulls On Parade is a GREAT song...the message behind it? Meh.
                              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                                Of course, the inverse of that is when you totally "get" the message, and then the song is perfect.
