jess farr

I can't think of a better starting point to good music for a little metalhead.

and of course...HENDRIX!

jess farr

yeah, its worth checking out, its been growing on me. there are about 4-5 songs that I think are really cool.

jess farr

yeah, I just got thier new album and its very different from the live show. very pop sounding. the live show was one big 45 min dynamic sitar drone.
very sp3. highly recommend if they show up in yer town.

jess farr

not sure if this has been brought up before, but what do you guys think of the high dials? they played a friends party @SXSW with BJM that was incredible.
long sitar drones with anton sittting in. pretty cool.

jess farr

check out

the Thin Red Line-Hans Zimmer
Passion-soundtrack to the Last Temptation of Christ-Peter Gabriel
the Mission-Ennio Morricone

jess farr

well, I asked cause that sounded like a Texas scene, but I guess those folks are everywhere.
it was a great series though.

jess farr

yeah, I always thought the Back Bay area was the coolest part of Boston. especially in the spring. very pretty. you can get apts fairly cheap down here. its like $450-600 for efficiencies(sic?) and one bedrooms and around $650-800 for a two bedroom. if your willing to rough it, its even cheaper in c...

jess farr

does that mean you came down to San Antonio or was this in Detroit?

jess farr

I've lived in both cites and Austin is waaaaaaay better. its hot as hell right now, but I can remember being snowed in my house for 4 days in Boston and never feeling warm for like, 9 months. as far as music Austin has the coolest scene in the U.S. and its very laid back and tolerent of the arts. ev...

jess farr

George W Bush is not from Texas.
born in Connecticut
went to prep school, college and grad school in New England.
thats a Yank to us down here.
Texas loves you.

jess farr

have fun in Matamoros, just don't stay after 10pm.

jess farr

all those mentioned are in Austin.
if your staying for a few months you gotta check it out.
alot of good music and not as many rednecks.

jess farr

never heard of 'em.

jess farr

'Stamped' was always one of my favorite Verve songs. I'd love to hear some of those jam sessions, but thats not gonna happen.

jess farr

Long answer: No
Short answer: Yes

jess farr

'The Thin Red Line" by Hans Zimmer.

jess farr

around '96 I came home drunk one night and my roomate demanded that I listen to this band Spiritualized. I liked the name, so we got high and he put on 'let it flow' at top volume. once the middle part kicked in i was hooked.

jess farr

jf what few people covered spiritualized songs and what songs?[/quote]

Low covered 'Lord can you hear me' and supposedly jason heard it and recut it for LICD. I can't for the life of me remeber the others(maybe two?). I'm sure some of the moderators would know. c'mon guys, help me out here.

jess farr

has there ever been a SPZ tribute album before?
I've only heard of a few people doing covers, anyone else?

jess farr

a few live shows would be cool, I'm sure they have some good ones.
hell, anything downloadable would be cool.

jess farr

I heard it was " I'm just a poor little wifeless fella..."
why not?

jess farr

i have the 4-track version and about a third of the way through 'Angel Sigh' it skips and starts over. did I just get screwed or did this happen on a mass scale? what a major fuck up if it did.

jess farr

agree
I liked the production on AG (or non-production)
I just didn't think the songs were there.
a cool concept that kinda missed the mark for me.

jess farr

totally agree about Supergrass. another great band, like the Verve, whom
nobody has ever heard of around here. never even heard them on the radio. they write great hooks too.

jess farr

yeah, I got that feeling. I mean how can anyone remember what they had to eat and what the weather was like 40 years ago. especially after smoking so much weed. there is definitely some revisionism going on but I guess thats unavoidable.

jess farr

just finished this book and I highly recommend it.
not really a linear biography as he skips around different periods of his life, but just like his music its intriguing, mysterious, romantic and funny.
even if you're not a Dylan fan you'll dig it. its pretty short too.
anyone else read it yet?

jess farr

just saw the DVD. not too impressed. a couple of cool videos, but the others are just edited montages of crap. pretty boring.
here's hoping for a live disc from virgin.

jess farr

It took me a while, but i dug the first solo album.
the second one, not really. I think he needs a band.

jess farr

good point there is a musician on every corner in Austin and everyone loves music, but no one has even heard of the Verve. ocassionally someone will mention the bittersweet symphony or drugs dont work, but never anything off a northern soul or a storm in heaven. I dont get it. surely they are much b...

jess farr

Speaking of forgetting... What about the double Brian Jonestown Massacre CD compilation? Not all new stuff but an incredibly enjoyable listen without a dull moment at any point (and a tip of the hat to Mr K for leaving that at my place recently). haven't heard about that one. who put it out? is it ...

jess farr

forgive my ingnorance, but what is Beef(fucking) Monster Munch?

jess farr

back around christmas time 97, I had just purchased LAGWAFIS and was enjoying it on my aunts stereo. the next day was Christmas dinner and the whole family was sitting down eating and listening to christmas music on the stereo when SPZ comes on and , to my suprise no one noticed. I sat there and wat...

jess farr

yeah, you sure you didn't leave anything else out
asshole?

jess farr

cool.
thanks for the heads up. for some reason the film got cancelled in Austin before it was shown. I looked on the sundance site and the next showing was tues 9th at 8pm.

jess farr

yeah, I havent read the paper or turned on the T.V. for two days for that reason. I think I'll try for a whole week.

jess farr

son of a bitch!

jess farr

typical conversation with redneck in Texas...

vote for Bush!
why?
cause we gotta kill all those terrorists before they kill us.
any other reasons?
he loves Jesus!

as contradictionary as it sounds, thats as deep as it gets.

I already voted, now i'll start praying.

jess farr

ha!
wasn't traveling matt like the wandering hippie?
the trash heap has spoken.

jess farr

amen, spz.
I've got a hard on for America right now.
maybe more people in the US should get passports just to see other countries. maybe then more Americans would appreciate our country alot more and come out of the bubble that we live in. warts and all.

jess farr

A while back I heard, from multiple sources, that Dylan was very interested in becoming a guest on American Idol.
I didn't believe it, but some of my hardcore Dylan friends were saying it was true. Has anyone else heard about this?
I saw the Victoria Secret ads, but American Idol?

jess farr

your SPIRIT has been crushed by the last election?
man thats pretty weak considering its gonna get a whole lot WORSE before it gets any better.
perhaps you're too sensitive though.

jess farr

man, I understand your frustration, but Bush won the last election by 537 votes. if that doesn't show your vote counts, then nothing does.

jess farr

[quote="eeee22"]thats because they see W talk with a southern accent(that noone else in his family has mind you) and simple words and say hes just like them. I blame nascar just gotta clarify a few things to the world, being from Texas and all. George W.Bush was born in Connecticut and wen...

jess farr

yeah, that shit goes on alot in Texas. down here high school football is a religion and dumb ass jocks can get away with almost anything. there was plenty of stupid hazing rituals at my high school(no paddles though). whats worse than the guys is the girls. before girls can join drill team they all ...

jess farr

hey Runcible, completely agree about Zeppelin
most acts are songwriters, but these guys were a BAND!

jess farr

nothing like comin' home after a hard days work
and performing a unneeded organ transplant to wind down with.
maybe even two.

jess farr

it means...
since we Love you sooo much, we are going to kick you out of the house,
never give you any money, never bail you out of jail and disown you until you meet our criteria.
geee Love sure is rough(or tough)

jess farr

Well, Spaceman might still use, but there is no way he's still strung out. I mean, I seriously doubt he's touring America and overseas with a dwindiling stash while putting on show after show, night after night. Sure, people have done it, but I didn't get that vibe at any of the shows I saw. What wi...

jess farr

oh whiskeys a killer alright.
I cant drink it anymore without getting explosive shits the next morning.
and whiskey is my fave!
once you pass 30, its all downhill.
damn!

jess farr

you soooo crazy...

jess farr

wait a minute, I thought the rules said that regulars could post music shit, just not jerkoffs that post and leave. I wouldn't mind hearing some of the people on this board at all. makes it alot more interesting.

jess farr

I would sprinkle some of the catchier tunes from bands like the Verve, Stone Roses and Pulp maybe mixed in with some Motown shit, and some cooler country stuff like Hank Williams, Johnny Cash or Willie Nelson since she's from Tennessee. I'd hold off on bands like SPZ or Mogwai for now; unless she's ...

jess farr

yes, Bob has taken over Coopers body and the 'good' Dale Cooper is trapped inside the Black Lodge. write it in your diary.

jess farr

check it...

Adore- Prince
Papa Was A Rolling Stone- the Temptations
Its Your Thing- the Isley Brothers
A Mans World- James Brown
Aint No Sunshine When She's Gone- Otis

guilty or not, I'll jam these anytime of any hour.

I dig Beyonce too, even like the 'Naughty Girl' song a bit.

jess farr

yeah it rules...
I've got both seasons on laserdisc, but my attempts to find/borrow a working laserdisc player has been unsuccessful.

jess farr

did you know, that at sometime in 2001, the Draw singer switches from acoustic to electric guitar? I couldn't believe it either, but there it is on the bands history link.

jess farr

i heard a while back that brian had to get a liver transplant cause of Hep C. is this true or is he still using his original one? all that medication running through its gotta be nasty. anyone ever seen the Theremin documentary? I think its called 'Theremin: an electronic odyssey' its worth watching...

jess farr

right now I can't think of two acts that bug me more than Barenaked Ladies and Alanis Morrisette. I usually scream when these come on the radio(no cd player in my car). Although I have had many hearty laughs at the extreme gayness of these folks, I can hardly qualify them as entertainment. Anybody e...

jess farr

my friend steven was in the choir for a couple of years, but was kicked out for being an "individual" apparently the robes arent just for show, very cultish, so the Jonestown references arent that far off. the guys wife is even in the band. also Tim(singer) makes everyone sign a contract t...

jess farr

I think I've figured out how to get crucified in this forum: *I sort of liked "Alone With Everybody"* All the songs go on too long, but most of them are engaging. I actually liked "Alone..." also. it took a while to get into it, but I dig it. can't say the same for the new one t...

jess farr

well, he cant really sing in a traditional sense, but then
neither can bob dylan, lou reed or neil young.
it dont bother me none.
