big enough from Talk Is Cheap

New Fleet Foxes

Walter Trout - Okay Boomer - from the album Ordinary Madness. Classic crank it up rock style which I haven't listened to in a long while. The album is pretty good blues/rock/guitar oriented. So, crank it up. Remember - if it's too loud you're too old.

Keith Richards Talk Is Cheap bonus disk

Foreigner - Waiting for a Girl like you

Goodbye Jimmy Reed, His Bobness.

Along with False Prophet the only redeeming song on the new album. Tempest (best album of the last 10 years IMHO) is 1000000000000000 times better.

Very disappointed with Rough And Rowdy Ways.

MMF could've used 2 middle eights and some chord changes. Bob is a genius so he could have easily done that. Lyrics good, music's lazy.

I agree for the most part, but still feel that Murder Most Foul is essential, though it's more like an intensely deep poetry reading than an actual song.
I recall first hearing it late in the evening right at the onset of the Corona lockdown back in March with the all of the uncertainty involved, and MMF was sort of comforting in a 'end of the world' sort of way haha.
It's definitely not a "song" I can listen to on a daily basis or would even want to, but whenever I do it still evokes those haunting vibes. For me, it's the highlight of the entire album... it's truly epic.

That video image is giving me a headache.

Is this the same version was on the Europe 73 bootleg?

Naw on listening more, not at all the high level of guitar soloing that was on that performance. It was the best performance of the song I have ever heard.

Maybe I was a bit harsh towards the album, there are 2 or 3 more songs that work as well as his three beautiful and great (IMHO) Sinatra/American songbook albums. I am sure we both agree that it doesn't come close to the Tempest album.

It must've been quite an apocalyptic listening experience that eve in march!


Here's a fun song for the thursday morning:

I was watching/listening to the WattStax movie and got an interesting surprise of a Rolling Stones moment near the end of Rufus Thomas' Do The Funky Chicken ...
