    Don’t know how much airplay this got anywhere…

    My friends and I had it on cassette tape.

    “Not heard Wildflowers (Tom Petty) before; its rather pretty and it oddly sounds familiar, so I wonder if its a traditional melody..?”

    It sounds like that because that’s the way Tom Petty wrote his songs. From the heart…

    But I looked it up, all songs on this album were written by Petty except for a couple by him and Mike…[Read more]

    One of the best videos I’ve ever seen, from back when they put some thought into the stuff.

    Directed by French film director Michel Gondry.

    Best comment?

    “Don’t forget to watch Tank Girl !…. Kiddies”

    Just brought it back around to Doctor Who with the Rachel Talalay mention…..   :D…[Read more]

    That’s all I meant. The fans knew. They know everthing.  🙂

    Wildflowers is so good from start to end, it’s crazy how good it sounds. Great production, clear instruments, vocals audible but not to far in the front.

    “I didn’t know that was Pearl Jam. Cool! And Tom Petty, so beloved and so missed.”

    Oh yes he’s missed.

     

    Nobody knows that’s Pearl Jam because I don’t think they are listed on the liner notes or anything. But you can tell it’s them from the playing style.

     

    Here’s the guitarist for Pearl Jam…[Read more]

    Please do, I bought it when it came out but I don’t think anybody else did.  🙂

    Reminds me of this record which is great from start to finish, but it never gets the praise of Full Moon Fever.

    It’s more mellow and reflective, which is probably why I like it so much.

  • Peace Frog replied to the topic General Music thread 4

    @whisht

    …and that made me think of this.

    Which is completely forgotten and underrated.

     

    Everything the Doctor knows is a lie so…Truth be known.

    Pear Jam is the backing band on this entire record.

    First thoughts on tonight’s episode…

    “Judoon platoon, near the lagoon.”

    That look on Graham’s face when he realizes he’s been mistaken for the Doctor once again…priceless.  🙂

    Possible parallel universes.

    John Frusciante is quite the guitar player.

    I think I might be on to something here…

    Timeless Child equals a Child in Time?

    Maybe not.

     

    You guys do realize that it was me in the “It takes you Away” episode. The BBC blew their budget on fancy new cameras and big name guest stars.

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?

    Listen to the similarities between these two songs. Yes, I know Mexicali is in the States…but close enough.

    But first I have to take care of my new friends…anybody that I’ve tagged thank you so much and I’ve probably left out somebody. Sorry if that was you. I’ve been up since 4am trying to shovel all of this ice out of my driveway. We have a good 3 inches of a slushy m…[Read more]

    I was there for this. It was as wild as it looks.

    By the end of the riot, the cops brought out the firehoses.

    They maybe got through not even half of their set.

    For being their first record, I’d say it was pretty good.

     

    Guns & Roses Appitite for Destruction was another good debut.

  • Peace Frog replied to the topic General Music thread 4

    @whisht @thane16

    Can either of you tell me why this song was not a big hit off of this record?

    I mean Eddie is going nuts here, the riff is better than “You Really Got Me”, I think.

    We might need to continue this on the sofa if we go too far into it, but I just wanted to add this.

    I can’t be the only one who is grateful that Roy “The Voice” Orbison had the chance to hook up with these other dudes before he was gone, Tom Petty too.  🙂

    Drummer here so….Levon Helm. Any drummer that also sings is amazing in my eyes. I can’t do it. Already doing 5 things at once trying to play the drums. And the vocals and rhythm track don’t always match well. Usually they are on different beats.

    Do your thing Levon… R.I.P.

    Great minds think alike because I was on my way here to post this. Dr. Demento anyone? These are both from his show.

    Glad you liked it, I found that one by accident.

    Only real problem with that video is that even though it’s a dig at him, the bright orange Bozo would take the entire thing if he saw it, and turn it around into glowing praise for himself somehow someway.

    Even to the point of trying to use it as his re-election anthem.   🙁
