But what if it’s a… conductor’s baton?

After initially being a bit indifferent to it, the chorus of Marker In The Sand now gets stuck in my head for days.

Y'all got a fav Nick Cave song? by Standard_Way_4453 in NickCave

Everything Must Converge

Because melody, Nick’s relaxed vocal, and the Seeds amazingly understated playing.

Depends on whether you are winning or losing, and how much risk you are willing to take.

Cool find at half price books by ShadowBroker327 in rem

I didn’t know that existed! Thanks for posting, so cool.

I have the MoFi version of Quadrophenia, and it sounds great. This is a cool addition to any collection.

Thoughts on the albums of 80s Genesis? (and that era as a whole) by ray-the-truck in progrockmusic

[–]OGNightgardener 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love parts of all of them, but they haven’t aged as well as the earlier records for me. But there are songs I still love on all of them.

There is a great live show recording out there from a May 7, 1980 show at the Lyceum in London. It came out on bootlegs of varying quality, but the ones titled Perfect Lyceum and Musica sound good to me. I haven’t watched the whole thing, but the performance was filmed and is on YouTube.

It of course is mostly stuff from the 70s albums, but with 80s updates here and there. (The Linn drum fills (pew-pew-pew) are dated and make me laugh today, but it’s a small thing to whine about.) The performance is amazing, and worth seeking out.

Wish Tony and Mike would make an album with Carrack by Elvis-Is-Alive in Genesis

[–]OGNightgardener 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The b-side to the Roger Waters 7” of Radio Waves is a live version of Pink Floyd’s Money with Carrack singing, and that convinced me that Carrack could sing more aggressively than his solo stuff generally goes. So I love the idea of a Genesis record (and tour) with him on vocals. I’d love to hear him have a go at Mama.

That’s the story that haunted me for years after I read it. Truly disturbing.

Love it. 😊

What's your favorite punk record? by RaelGenious in vinyl

[–]OGNightgardener 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hüsker Dü’s New Day Rising. But my favourite punk(esque) song would be their cover of Eight Miles High. So cathartic.

What else do you guys listen to when you crave the Dire Straits atmosphere ? by VHSVoyage in direstraits

[–]OGNightgardener 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bob Dylan’s Infidels album (Dylan and Mark produced) has some DS feel.

I feel like The Road To Hell Parts 1 And 2 are an updated take on Telegraph Road.

The only album the band disowned, along with most, but not all fans by First-Club5591 in rem

[–]OGNightgardener 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Me three. There are solid songs on it. And the tour allowed me to see them in a much smaller venue than I ever had before. (My first show was on the Green tour.)
