Black Crowes (Official Thread)
Re: The Black Crowes I never fully got into The Black Crowes, but I do like most of their hits throughout the 90's. They toured with Jimmy Page back in 1999, and the double live cd they released in 2000 from the Greek Theater concert(s) in Los Angeles is damn good! I'm sure the crowd felt like...- Dave78

Remembering 1968
I never knew Sherry Jackson belonged to a hog-straddling Mini Skirt Mob on the prowl who played around with murder like they played around with men! She sure has come along way, baby. :D- Dave78

The Ramones (Official Thread)
Re: The Ramones I think the brilliance of The Ramones was in their simplicity. They were, to me, the epitome of three-chord rock (punk or otherwise), and sometimes it seemed like only two chords. And from record to record they never strayed from their familiar trademark sound. But with song...- Dave78

The Official "90's British Pop" Music Appreciation Thread
Two more before I close-up shop for the night. Not from the 90's, but both were part of the preceding British Goth/Dark Wave movement from the mid to late 80's: The The with "Kingdom Of Rain" (featuring a young Sinead O'Conner) from 1989 C_i9BJgbD98 and The Jesus And Mary Chain's...- Dave78

Ellen DeGeneres starts own record label
^^^ I wouldn't be surprised if she used her show on NBC for cross-promotion purposes, too. ;)- Dave78

Ellen DeGeneres starts own record label
rS6dfpdivCI I just discovered that particular sitcom of hers on cable. Very funny show, indeed. Not only because it is written by Jerry Seinfeld's funny ex-gf Carol Leifer, but also because the rest of the cast is pretty funny, too (Martin Mull, Cloris Leachman, Emily Rutherfurd who's now on...- Dave78

Small Faces (Official Thread)
Re: Small Faces = how did they not catch on in the States ? I always knew of The Small Faces in the 70's, but rarely heard them on the radio. After finding out who was actually in the band I chalked up their notoriety more for being famous for launching other people's career than for their own...- Dave78

Yuck!!!
Maybe I'm too accustomed to discovering new talent from the radio, long after these musicians have gone through several bands and have slaved away in the clubs by night for a few years while shopping their demo tapes to record execs by day, in between shifts waiting tables at Hamburger Hamlet...- Dave78

The Official "90's British Pop" Music Appreciation Thread
Where I come from, the term "pop" relegated someone in the 70's to "AM" or, later in the 80's, "FM Top 40" status. I think the "Brit/Pop" or "Acid/Pop" terms of the 90's were simply used to refer to a genre of music similar to that of the Psychedelic movement born in the 60's (mainly because...- Dave78

Yuck!!!
That could very well be for some people. I don't hate the "pop genre" nature of the show, but I guess I don't hear the same thing the audience and judges do when I hear some of these contestants sing and/or play guitar. Then again I haven't watched an entire show so my opinions are based solely...- Dave78

Yuck!!!
Seems to me that, over the years, there have really only been a very small few who could really sing, let alone sing and play an acoustic guitar. And I'm not just talking about the winners. I'm also talking about some of the people who've been sent home early. I'd like to think AI could find...- Dave78

Bryan Ferry (Official Thread)
Re: Bryan Ferry I'm more of a fan of Roxy Music with Bryan Ferry than solo Bryan Ferry without Roxy Music, but he really knocked it out of the ballpark in '87 with Bete Noire. His 1985 album Boys and Girls was ok thanks to three great tracks in "Sensation", "Slave To Love" and "Dance Away"...- Dave78

Bands You Never Used To Like, But Now You Do?
For me it's The Eagles. I blame the radio jocks. All they seemed to play back then were the syrupy ballads like Tequila Sunrise, Lyin' Eyes, Desperado, Take It To The Limit, The Best Of My Love and Peaceful Easy Feeling. :barf: It wasn't until the early 2000's that I began listening to their...- Dave78

Small Faces (Official Thread)
Re: Small Faces = how did they not catch on in the States ?

What Does it Mean to Be Overrated?
I use the term overrated as a way to describe a band or artist whose musical appeal to me is very low or non-existent, yet the media and public at large just can't get enough of (see: Britney Spears, Black Eyed Peas and John Mayer). On the other hand (and I didn't take notes), I believe the few...- Dave78
