I'm surprised there's never been a "best Come Together" poll.
― nate woolls, Tuesday, 24 March 2009 16:05 (fifteen years ago) link
"Come Together" is the song that made me start hating Primal Scream. - if that is when you started hating them, does that mean you preferred the leather chaps & cowboy hats phase?

I forgot MC5's "Come Together"!!!!

Yeah me too til I read that thread. Still Spiritualized though, with MC5 second.

That means I liked "Loaded" a hell of a lot and was blindsided by how much I despised "Come Together". (I refused to listen to them for a long time after hearing "CT", which is why I didn't discover how great "Slip Inside This House" was until years after the fact.)

I'm sure the Bobster didn't forget the MC5 version...

"Slip Inside This House" is 2nd-choice for me
if you compress this album to one song the end result can only be "come together".
― alex in mainhattan, Tuesday, 24 March 2009 16:12 (fifteen years ago) link
"Come Together" sounded fucking perfect when I teenager, full of optimism & on drugs. These days, not so much. Loaded holds up, though.

Mine is the only vote for 'Inner Flight'? And I'm not even a Beach Boys-fanatic.

No option for "unbelievably shitty, self-important, over-rated album" = no vote from me.

Multi-X-Post: "Come Together" is a bad song by a great band.
― Geir Hongro, Tuesday, 24 March 2009 23:15 (fifteen years ago) link
Are we talking about the "Come Together" with the Jesse Jackson sample that starts out "This is a beautiful day. It is a new day..." OR are we talking about the one that goes "Kiss me, won't you won't you kiss me... lift me right out of this world." I prefer the former, even though it sounds like an absolutely amazing beginning to a song that you expect to start rocking but it never really gets there and ten minutes later it ends.

Actually I am talking about the "Come Together" that starts with "Here come old flat top He come groovin' up slowly" :)

even though i sometimes don't acknowledge individual tracks when i play this album through, 'slip inside this house' is the definite winner for me.

If she can be believed, she's as excited to hang out as I am. Plus I can hear that amplified Kenyan preacher about 75 meters away. "Come Together" seems like the right choice here. And ... yes.

What is it with bands nowadays doing concert tours where the big selling point is they're going to play their canon album in its entirety? Van Morrsion did it wth Astral Weeks. Todd Rundgren did it with A Wizard A True Star. Roger Waters did it with Dark Side of the Moon. And now the Primals are doing it with Screamadelica!
― Mr. Snrub, Monday, 22 February 2010 02:38 (fourteen years ago) link
