Surf_Nazis_Must_Die 8958 Report post Posted February 16, 2012 Great album from a great band :) Saw them live a few times, always a great live act, including their final Winnipeg show. It wasn't surprising that we were no longer on their itinerary after someone nearly whizzed a bottle off the singer's head and one of the openers, a band from japan called nicotine, got mugged just outside the venue... Stay classy Winnipeg :( The shortest song on the album is probably my favorite http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O2tJXCpi2Q Lyrics: Every interaction tainted with objectification Does it make you cool to put her in her place How would you feel if it was your sister You're a poor excuse for a man Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reuben Sandwich 13841 Report post Posted February 17, 2012 My first classical music album was the Overtures of Gioachino Rossini. My initial interest was to get the music I had heard in some Bugs Bunny cartoons but then I got a real bug for more of the classic classical pieces. William Tell and Barber of Seville were the most used but I love the Thieving Magpie too. Gioachino RossiniOverture to L'italiana in Algeri (The Italian Girl in Algiers)5:57 Overture to La gazza ladra (The Thieving Magpie)6:58 Overture to Il barbiere di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville)7:25 Overture to L'inganno felice4:42 Overture to La scala di seta (The Silken Ladder)5:13 Otello, opera (Overture) 8:11 Overture to Guilliame Tell 6:01 Gioachino RossiniOverture to La cenerentola (Cinderella) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reuben Sandwich 13841 Report post Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) I think I only listened to the first side of this once, but it was side two, their 40's style radio play "The Further Adventures of Nick Danger" that I memorized as well as many of my friends at the time. Even forty years later if I get together with that gang, someone will use a bit of dialogue from this in the conversation. Classic lines like: "Hey in there. You're doorknocker fell off." "What's all this brouhaha?" "It felt like the hot kiss at the end of a wet fist" "I'm looking for the old Same place. You must mean the same old place. It's right out back. Here's the key." "I spell my name, Danger." Edited February 18, 2012 by *r*j****l Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ***nsut***jr Report post Posted February 17, 2012 This was a cool album. It came in a thick card box because it had 3 LP's in it. The cover art is awesome too. Lots of great songs on here including Wah Wah a favorite song always. I love the cover of Dylan's If Not For You Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bewlayb 7480 Report post Posted February 18, 2012 Hatful of Hollow (1984) A collection of single A-sides and B-sides, and BBC session tracks. Favorite tracks: Handsome Devil What Difference Does it Make? How Soon is Now This Charming Man Hand in Glove Girl Afraid Reel Around the Fountain This Night Has Open My Eye The Queen is Dead (1986) Their third studio album. A diverse mix of music styles, with plenty of Morrissey's clever writing, wit and sense of humor evident. Some of my favorite Johnny Marr guitar work. Favorite tracks: The Queen is Dead (Take Me Back to Dear Old Blighty) - fab guitar effects Frankly Mr. Shankly - "you are a flatulent pain in the ass" I Know It's Over Cemetry Gates Bigmouth Strikes Again - anyone else hear Barracuda in this? Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others - "lend me your pillow, the one that you dream on" Honorable mention for debut album - The Smiths (1984) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reuben Sandwich 13841 Report post Posted February 18, 2012 One of the best side one's of any rock album, this baby just does not stop. This is my favourite for Jagger's vocals even over the Let It Bleed album. Great finish with Soul Survivor. This is more Keith's record for the musical direction, I just don't know how they pulled it off with all the drugs and what seemed like chaos. All songs written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, except where noted. Side oneNo.TitleLength 1."Rocks Off" 4:31 2."Rip This Joint" 2:22 3."Shake Your Hips" (Slim Harpo)2:59 4."Casino Boogie" 3:33 5."Tumbling Dice" 3:45 Side twoNo.TitleLength 6."Sweet Virginia" 4:27 7."Torn and Frayed" 4:17 8."Sweet Black Angel" 2:54 9."Loving Cup" 4:25 Side threeNo.TitleLength 10."Happy" 3:04 11."Turd on the Run" 2:36 12."Ventilator Blues" (Jagger/Richards/Mick Taylor)3:24 13."I Just Want to See His Face" 2:52 14."Let It Loose" 5:16 Side fourNo.TitleLength 15."All Down the Line" 3:49 16."Stop Breaking Down" (Robert Johnson)4:34 17."Shine a Light" 4:14 18."Soul Survivor" 3:49 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAFlcOs8tCc Soul Survivor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 I just had this on the turntable this afternoon.... Supertramp - Breakfast In America Every song on this album is special. I fondly remember when it first came out - we were all astounded by just how tight these guys were.... the music was amazing. As I get older, I appreciate the lyrics even more.... Take the Long Way Home So you think you're a Romeo playing a part in a picture-show Take the long way home Take the long way home Cos you're the joke of the neighborhood Why should you care if you're feeling good Take the long way home Take the long way home But there are times that you feel you're part of the scenery all the greenery is comin' down, boy And then your wife seems to think you're part of the furniture oh, it's peculiar, she used to be so nice. When lonely days turn to lonely nights you take a trip to the city lights And take the long way home Take the long way home You never see what you want to see Forever playing to the gallery You take the long way home Take the long way home And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, unforgettable, how they adore you, But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, oh, calamity, is there no way out? Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. When you look through the years and see what you could have been oh, what might have been, if you'd had more time. So, when the day comes to settle down, Who's to blame if you're not around? You took the long way home You took the long way home........... Side one No. Title Lead vocals Length 1. "Gone Hollywood" Davies and Hodgson 5:20 2. "The Logical Song" Hodgson 4:10 3. "Goodbye Stranger" Davies 5:50 4. "Breakfast in America" Hodgson 2:38 5. "Oh Darling" Davies 3:58 Side two No. Title Lead vocals Length 6. "Take the Long Way Home" Hodgson 5:08 7. "Lord Is It Mine" Hodgson 4:09 8. "Just Another Nervous Wreck" Davies 4:26 9. "Casual Conversations" Davies 2:58 10.

Guest W***ledi*Time Report post Posted February 20, 2012 I didn't buy this one until several years after it was first released in 1971. But when I did, I wore it out.
