I like Dilate and Amanita more than Set & Setting, I think.

Ian John50n (orion), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I like Amanita a lot -- but they front-loaded all the best songs and it could stand to lose about 20 minutes. Same with "Dilate", which is why they're at the bottom.

MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Dilate is my favorite Bardo Pond album!

By themselves, Zen Arcade and Double Nickels on the Dime push 1984 higher than 6th!

Anyone wanna brave a Jandek album ranking?

Ian John50n (orion), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:22 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm glad somebody else likes Arise, Therefore. I like that one too. But I can't get into #2, #3, #6 or #8.

Again, it's ALL about the new one.

Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:24 (twenty-one years ago)

do you like Ease Down The Road? That one is definitely the most underrated Oldham album, I think. No one gives it enough credit for being FUCKING AWESOME.. maybe it should be above Hope.

Ian John50n (orion), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:27 (twenty-one years ago)

nah - hope has the lenny cohen cover, and "Untitled." I like Ease Down the Road - I think that's Tovah's favorite. For "Just To See My Holly Home," alone, classic!

No fucking WAY anything the Beatles ever did is better than ANYTHING Uncle Neil did, LEAST OF ALL the shitty White Album - you crazy Ian. Too much Brooklyn noise / clatter, too much Sparxxxxxxxxx

Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:38 (twenty-one years ago)

I DON'T TOUCH THE SPARKS, SON.

-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.

Ian John50n (orion), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:41 (twenty-one years ago)

whats mindblowing? teh beatles trying to sound american (don't pass me by, why don't we do it..., back in teh ussr, etc0 or them trying to be art / sound collage nerds and failing fucking miserably (revolution 9, etc)??

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

Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Ian, your list was fine. The people who complain about filler on the White Album are the same sorts of people who say things like "'Punk Love' is horrible and it nearly ruined '69 Love Songs' for me".

MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:44 (twenty-one years ago)

fuck, jessica is due hoem any minuet and i'm so drunk i'm bout to piss my pants

Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:48 (twenty-one years ago)

teh beatles trying to sound american

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

Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:57 (twenty-one years ago)

i guess so. but has it ever been mnore blatant / transparent than on the white album? Rocky Racoon and all?

Roger Fidelity (Roger Fidelity), Sunday, 28 November 2004 05:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Rubber Soul has always felt like the more "American" Beatles album to me. All folksy and Dylanesque with Buck Owenslike country songs like "What Goes On" and "Run For Your Life". I get what you're saying about the White Album, but I don't think it was any more blatant than some of the rest.

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.

Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Sunday, 28 November 2004 06:20 (twenty-one years ago)

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

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!

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”

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.
