As for "Autumn Sweater", I love most of it, but there's this left-channelled drum pattern that Georgia plays that's horribly off-beat sometimes and totally disorienting on headphones, and it kinda ruins the song.

-IF- my mom had, say, Rubber Soul, that would have been #1. But she didn't. And if my mom had Tonight's The Night, that would have been number one. But she didn't.

The white album has a few really awful tracks, BUT there are so many more totally mindblowing tracks that it totally makes up for it.

i wrote an article in my college papowr about this and literally almost got beat up

but beyond blackbird, yer blues, and mayeb one or two more, it suxxx!!

now, REVOLVER, that's a good record. And Rubber Soul too. But still dogshit compared to the worst of Neil Young

mind - yr wrong - it's 70% filler

oops better keep[ with teh thread

1. Jimmy Johns
2. Quiznos
3. Subway

Wasn't this the basis of their career, after all? Imitaing Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Carl Perkins, and later, Bob Dylan? Except better?

is this the best ten years of 80's music ?

That was just my list of years from the '80s, pseudoman. Were it for music, 1989: The Year of Roxette, Mike + Mechanics, and "500 Miles" would be much lower on the list.

are you for real, roger? i mean, i don't idolize the beatles either but the worst of neil young is pretty fucking, um, WORST!

top things i've refused money for:

composing a song
playing a song
recording a song
performing a song
writing about someone else's recorded song(s)

i guess add 'being on social media' to that, even though that's like... a given. but i guess some people here have done that, so whatever. i haven't.

top things i *have* accepted money for:
teaching children to read
being disabled
...and then that one time ~25 years ago some really drunk woman at the bar saw al green in my crate and became the most hysterically happy drunk ever. i wanted to give the two wadded up dollar bills she threw into the dj booth back to her (requests are free, after all) but she had spilled her drink on the dancefloor by then and security had asked her to leave. i kept that $2 in a special side pocket in my wallet for weeks afterwards in case i saw her again. never did. that was pre-inflation $2, too -- probably spent on a gordita at 3am. thanks for the burrito, sorry you didn't get to hear the whole song.

can you imagine taking money to write or talk about any of that? i certainly struggle with it, but i mean look where i'm posting... most of you think you're morally better than me because i don't like madonna. i just hope your sources of ego come to an end soon, because that much contempt for your own community isn't healthy.

Not really a ranking but last night I said my favourite three rock guitar soloists were 1. Prince, 1. Marc Ribot and 1. Neil Young

My friend rejoined that “Keep On Rockin’ In The Free World” was the worst Neil Young song, and I replied that “Let’s Roll” was worse, but that worse even than that was my personally least-favourite Neil Young song: “A Horse With No Name”

"I drove to California in a hearse with no name..."

gilberto grape
or'ngette coleman
don wild cherry
mango reinhardt
root bird
vince guavaldi
cab colaway
dave bruberry
artie strawberry
fizzy gillespie
kiwi holliday
nina lemone
peachmo
john cola-trane
mingus dew
marian mcpineapple
dexterade
getzberry

notes:
"gilberto grape" is my fave because it's kind of a second-order reference. with "or'ngette coleman" the apostrophe makes it, as well as, i mean, i can imagine a cola flavor called "or'ngette". i do also have a marked preference for free jazz, which is why coleman and cherry top the list. i also think the obvious puns are better... it took me a while to get who they were referencing with "peachmo" and honestly i feel like they were stretching it a bit. maybe i should rate "dexterade" higher because, again, i can imagine a soda called "dexterade", it also wouldn't be very good. you'd do better with a fictitious drug called "dexterdrine", though, again, not really applicable to dexter's playing style. same with "getzberry"... i'm glad they included stan getz, clearly the priorty was including as many jazz greats as they could (though miles is a notable omission). "fizzy gillespie" would be higher but it doesn't reference any particular flavor. "vince guavaldi" and "mango reinhardt" are great because they change is just one consonant sound. i also like both guaraldi and django a lot, as well as guava and mango. "kiwi holliday" and "nina lemone" are both stretches. i do want to call out "root bird" because it just feels true to the _spirit_ of bird. "cab colaway" is above "john cola-trane" because i prefer changing sounds to adding an extra syllable.

judges would also have accepted regionalisms Don Cheerwine, Moxie Roach

I need to know the placement of Sun Ra-spberry
