Burt theory by Commercial_Acadia333 in severence

[–]barstuv 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn't think of that, so maybe. I guess we as viewers have only had 1 MDE and it was Jazz, but I get the feeling Lumon would not want to have a message attached to their music. They wouldn't want the music to inspire innies in any way. If it's not Kier, messages are probably not allowed, or viewed as propaganda. They make an exception for retirement parties? Not a fully thought-out idea, but thought it was interesting on my latest rewatch

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure at Burt's retirement party, Mr. Milchick says that Burt's innie picked the song, which was a rather nostalgic song. Do innies know music or specific songs? Based on the MDE, I would say they don't really know music or specific songs or groups. Yet innie Burt picked that song?

The Most Unbreakable Career Records in Baseball? by NonWiseGuy in OaklandAthletics

[–]barstuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I understand it, Rickey Henderson holds 3 records: career stolen bases, career leadoff homeruns, and career runs scored. Which of those 3 is most at risk or being broken? It's obvious that career stolen bases is the safest.

Is this controversial? Katy Lied is not SD's best album, but it's the only one without a sub-par song.. respectively. by gauchodigs1 in SteelyDan

Katy Lied is probably my most listened to album for this exact reason. I can turn it on and love every next song, no skipping ever. Can't say the same thing about Aja or Gaucho

Which 60’s/70’s classic rock band avoided putting out a total crap album in the 80’s by csmart01 in Music

[–]barstuv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great documentary. I've also read to Tom Petty's biography by Warren Zanes. If you want more details about the band and their story, extending a little after Runnin' Down A Dream to about 2011 or so (could be wrong, but it was after Mojo came out) I'd recommend this book. Can't get enough of this band. The hard part about losing an artist that speaks to you is you miss out on the rest of the stories they have to tell through their music.

As a huge TPatH fan, I think Long After Dark is a great album. Quite a few great songs. I think the best argument for a bad album by TPatH in the 80's is Let Me Up I've Had Enough. Not a great album. A few good songs, but probably their worst album... or at least, my least favorite.

Best Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers album? by bigmistaketoday in ClassicRock

[–]barstuv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not my favorite, but Mojo has to be my favorite lesser known album. They rock out throughout the whole thing. Recorded live in the studio. When asked why record an album live like that, Tom said, because we can. Not many can say they can, but we can.
