OK I've been eyeing D&B's Home and Get Ourselves Tpgether on Rhapsody for awhile, will listen next week.

The early "Tell The Truth" / "Roll It Over" single by the D&Ds totally sounds like punk at times YOU GOT THAT RITE BRO

this is where I can confess to liking Eric Clapton's s/t solo debut and Dave Mason's Alone Together. A lot.

you gotta figure any album titled *Funky Sounds Nurtured In The Fertile Soil Of Memphis That Smell Of Rock* is at least worth listening to once. and you would be right. i really like that album. funky and introspective. i don't know about his later stuff. i think the one you saw was later than 1973.

Oh, and I'm not a Delanie & Bonnie expert! I've had albums here and there, but I never gave them a lot of time. I should listen to whatever I have again.

scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 25 June 2006 15:14 (nineteen years ago)

scott, the reason i am not always listening to buckingham-nicks is cuz i don't own a copy! we had TWO copies at the store for a while, but then both sold within a few days of each other and i missed out.

such a great album. i like it as much as any fleetwood mac album with them on it. i only wish they had made five albums like that before joining FM.

why r u being a dick?

Dr Morbius, Sunday, 17 June 2007 18:00 (eighteen years ago)

Why are you so cool? When can you and your wife come to Miami?

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Monday, 18 June 2007 02:02 (eighteen years ago)

why am i being a dick? why do you want i love film to just sit there dead with one post a month? i think that's weirder than me wanting to have some fun and post some pictures. maybe some actual interest in the board will revive things. or maybe not. i really don't care. feel free to start your own threads! i always liked the idea of a movie, sorry, "film" board. till i saw what it was like and decided to stick with ile. you want to retain its purity or something? am i defiling a corpse?

alfred, if i'm cool it's because i'm not afraid to ask the HARD questions in the face of public disapproval!

MARCELLO MASTROIANNI -VS- JIM VARNEY

and i don't know when we will make it to miami. i'm not against the idea. if i had my way it would be in winter though.

thanks,
bell_labs

bell_labs, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 18:51 (eighteen years ago)

Hey Scott,

I like you. I liked your Agalloch review. I got the record and it's great and I know nothing about metal. Can I pay you to make me a mix cd?

Adam

^^ this is a good idea

sanskrit, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 19:20 (eighteen years ago)

scott, do you like NJ metal band Overlorde? tell me something about them.

sanskrit, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 19:21 (eighteen years ago)

it really was a hoot to me when i was 12 or 13. along with doper dan, the freak brothers, fat freddy's cat, omaha the cat dancer, all those guys. flakey floont. mr natural. it didn't matter. i mean, if i would actually send away for doper dan comix i obviously would read anything. slow death. bizarre sex. hiroshima gen. weirdo. creepy. eerie. heavy metal. epic. i didn't care what it was. it was all weird and i wanted all weird. but i haven't read it in a zillion years and i almost can't believe that he still does it.

^^^ awesome post

and what, Thursday, 12 July 2007 19:02 (eighteen years ago)

there may be aztec metal. it's possible. i am all for further myth exploration. all kinds. i wish there were metal bands that based their cosmos on african myths! and ancient egypt doesn't really count. or indian mythology. chinese mythology. so much to explore.

adam, by the time i made you a mix cd you would be old or dead. my advice would be to last fm it. i am ALWAYS hearing cool stuff on there. just type in agalloch as a tag. or funeral doom. or pagan metal. works like a charm. so much great stuff on there.

i don't think i've ever heard overlorde.

scott seward, Friday, 13 July 2007 12:10 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah, Scott, thanks for talking up Agalloch on ILM. It made me DL their last few recs and I love them now.

scott seward, Tuesday, 2 October 2007 13:40 (eighteen years ago)

Hey Scott

I was looking at a record by National Health, i think it's their first album..some kinda jazzy/proggy thing...are they good?? (it was $7 looked in decent shape)

M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 4 October 2007 19:41 (eighteen years ago)

Scott where is your ebay FUCK YOU FUCK YOU DIE thread. I would much like to read that again.

Whiney G. Weingarten, Thursday, 4 October 2007 20:56 (eighteen years ago)

i don't think national health were that great. it's been so long since i've heard one. probably worth five bucks anyway. i know i had one at one time years ago.

i don't remember the title of that ebay thread. this is my favorite ebay listing at the moment:

hey scott.
i almost bought you a copy of the first happy & artie traum record when i was in RI over the weekend, but i didn't have enough cash on me to get that AND the other crap i was getting. like a rosalie sorrels LP with a full band! i haven't listened to that yet. it was $4.

ian, Tuesday, 30 October 2007 18:18 (eighteen years ago)

scott tell me what your favorite dollar bin R&B record is 1975-1985

deej, Tuesday, 30 October 2007 18:23 (eighteen years ago)

rosalie iz my hero.

i didn't see this thread revive.

deej, there are so many. i could never pick one. sheesh. i'll give you a tip just in case you don't own them though: mid-70's temptations records are so hot. or i love them anyway. who the hell even knows who was in the group by then. anyway, *a song for you*, *house party*, and *wings of love* are records that i always play. and they are total dollar records. and everyone needs every shalamar record. and lots of fatback albums. and there are a lot of fatback albums. i love fatback. oh it's endless. if it looks funky and it's from the 70's and it's a dollar and it's in decent shape and you've never heard it, BUY IT. that's my motto.

scott seward, Thursday, 1 November 2007 23:29 (eighteen years ago)

scott i just saw a metal band called 3 inches of blood. they were so fucking amazing.

Daer Scott Seward,

A track came up in my shuffle and I thought of you because you seem to be the right person to go to about this Nuggets-y sort of question.

Here's the track:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZVmRpXtRyI

(the first track btw)

From what I gather this track was released in 1967, at a time when garage rock was in a significant decline in the US. But this band, Singapore's THE QUESTS, seem to have a certain edge, whether it's the drippy in-your-face Peter Gunn guitar or the drummer who favors his floor tom, that seems to come across as pretty "wild".

Was this sound captured on this track a stylistic anomaly or pretty par for the course for global party cover bands? Like, were the Quests channeling what was happening in, say, Detroit at the time? Do you see what I'm getting at here (dare I use the P-word)?

Milton Parker, Friday, 25 June 2010 18:24 (fifteen years ago)

"Was this sound captured on this track a stylistic anomaly or pretty par for the course for global party cover bands?"

pretty much par for the course! garage rock got to asia a little bit later and it isn't uncommon to hear mid 60's dance/garage/surf rave-ups even into the early 70's in some countries. have you heard the cambodian rocks comps? a lot of that stuff is late 60's. a lot of it very surf-influenced. the ventures were gods in asia. first in japan, but then all over. they had a huge influence on non-western rock back then.
