I agree with basically everything you wrote. I'm pretty sure we're on the same page musically. Please keep posting songs you like, no matter how obscure. Out of curiosity, do you like The Strokes? My Bloody Valentine? How about The Sundays? I only am into a handful of their songs but they remind me so much of The Smiths. The Strokes are fire. I even love Julian Casablancas solo stuff. The Sundays are ok, I mean, give me some Harriet Wheeler all day but they're a mode listen or kind of a, oh yeah, this is a good tune but not a sound I seek out. Similarly w/ My Bloody Valentine. They're like the English version of Sonic Youth, in a way. Again, both mode listens. I enjoy the sound, lots of songs but it's not a go to grab for me in my library. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And I'm really referring to the instrumentals) Jeff Buckley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you not like what Zappa does when he improvs? It's incredible but his song writing? Way too out there and just down right silly for me to ever get into. I respect his talent though and you can get lost in his playing, for sure. Buckley, never registered honestly. Just his sound never caught my ear.

JiFtheOracle Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 @BUM-KNEE I loved the Mix Up, this one, so good. MCA was incredible. Just unbelievable talent, such a good bass player...he had it all man...and the change on this song...so funky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just his sound never caught my ear. Agreed. Love Zappa's guitar playing but his songs with lyrics are generally too "out there". I'll throw this out there for a JB recommendation (I'm torn between a few and the one I just posted but deleted was strangely cut off at the height of the song.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiFtheOracle Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 @TuscanyTile2 sorry, Bum got me side tracked. A band I've dived into recently who is really much more complex and out there than I thought is Siouxsie and the Banshees. I obviously knew of their hits and some of their big covers that hit the charts but some of their early stuff is incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like Radiohead. And like Radiohead, a few songs I like and in the right moment can really feel it but for the most part just doesnt register for me.

Interestingly enough after seeing Buckley perform, Thom Yorke of Radiohead was inspired to change his vocal style to incorporate more falsetto. So yeah, the sound similarity checks out. Radiohead has been a slow grower for me but I like a lot of their material now, and Grace by Jeff Buckley is just incredible imo. Especially with the context of his death the album is all that more powerful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They basically influenced all the music of the 90's/grunge scene. Anywho, I'll post a few because there are so many. I'll post the studio recording so you can hear them best. This is one of my favorite songs ever written: Ohhhh this song. Yeah I've heard it before I like it but never knew who made it. I dunno these guys were just never on my radar I guess.

Huh, it's weird because it was almost like I would like every other song. I guess for me it's kind of a hit or miss band no offense. Some of it I like and some...I don't dislike but I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to either. They remind me a little bit of Weezer which I am also hit or miss with.

They have a bunch more that are probably a little more of their iconic sound, more popular songs that I didnt share but I personally love "Letter to Memphis" - just a fun little tune. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiFtheOracle Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I got a new Danelectro for my birthday, it's freakin great. I love it. A couple of tones that it just nails and sounds soooo good when I play is Tommy Iommi, the other is Johnny Ramone. So been playing a ton of their music over the last 2 weeks. And **** me, do I love Iommi. Like, I dont think Iommi is the greatest guitar player of all time, I'd probably let Hendrix and Page fight that out but I'm not sure there is a guitar sound I like more than Iommi. It's soooo good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
