My friend was telling me he played "Renegade" last year for an undergrad class to demonstrate the difference between different elements in the drum kit. 5 different kids apparently did the scream at the end of the intro along with the CD. I <3 Buffalo.

(I listened to Pieces of Eight yesterday.)

Nobody else reps for Ismail Azeem around here, but that may be because I'm the only one who's ever heard of him.

"Rise Up" is probably my second fave rap record of the year, after UGKz.

stephen, Friday, 9 November 2007 19:10 (sixteen years ago) link

I dunno. I guess I started a thread on them which didn't turn out to be popular. Then again, I go into every thread hoping that one million people will respond and agree, so I tend to set myself up for disappointment.

Maybe the Modern Jazz Quartet. I always get the impression that they're too *boring* for most of ILM, but maybe some of the hardcore jazzers will back me up on them.

That's the only way I knew! Check out his website:

White dudes playing the blues bring out the venom on ILM, just check out a Clapton or Stevie Ray Vaughn thread.

I can get why Clapton gets loathed for some of the stuff he has said and the cruddy music he made later on, but SRV tagging I don't quite get.
Stevie Ray Vaughn was definitely not hip, but the guy's music is alright with me and it seemed to come from the right place. I can see hating on the hoopla in the wake of the guy's death, but that happens with about any musician that dies with some music left on the table.
