    Van Halen (Official Thread)

    I Love "Jump" , thought the video was cool too :) I am best pleased by DLR and Van Halen line up , a big fan of Diamond Dave , loved most of his solo stuff (except his third solo album) .... love his coverage of "old time music" too . Jump came out around the time of Yes' "Owner of a Lonely...

    The Term Selling Out.

    I think there are always going to be compromises in art , true Rush did what they wanted to do inspite of the record company , but that wasn't in order to please fans but themselves "Anthem" Know your place in life is where you want to be Don't let them tell you that you owe it all to...

    The Term Selling Out.

    great post , AAG , it's the artist who takes the risk , the punter is either going to pay or withold support on the merit of a subjective view of the music , 'musical integrity' is an illusion you are right. Speaking of integrity , how many fans who demand it of artists have illegally...

    The Term Selling Out.

    Reminds me of those Muppets who shouted "Judas" at Bob Dylan just because they thought he was there to serve their idea of musical integrity , absurd !

    The Term Selling Out.

    sure fans are free to say "sell out" , fans are free to say anything no matter how airy fairy , it doesn't make it right or real .... if fans think "their" band has sold out to them then they really need to check reality .... the only contract is money for a cd or gig , it's a free exchange...
