Title: 26 Feb 2015: it's... another classic from 1971
Post by: RGMike on February 25, 2015, 08:53:52 PM
I'm just gonna assume another "encore" -- AL is still posting pics of the new studios on FB -- and then I can be pleasantly surprised if we get a new set.

I'm guessing we're getting '71 or 72 since we're hearing "I'd Like to Buy The World a Coke."

Yep, 1971. Joy to the World TOTHK.

Sounds like a new one from 1971. I guessed 72 from the Coke song. Close but no ceegar.

ETA: Oh well, not new. But I'll enjoy 71 anyway.

So when I was 7 yrs old this was one of the funniest jokes:  Do you like to eat snot?  "But if you think its butter, but it's snot, its Chiffon."

Is it just me, or has Sweet City Woman rising on the FF list? Seems like I've heard it a few times over the last 6 months or so.

ETA: Yep. This is its fourth appearance (including in a different encore set) since last July.

Since I didn't hear this the first time around BOS #1 for "Getting In Tune". That piano & bass intro is still one of my favorites...and The Who had at least 2 of the top five all time intros besides this.

BOS #2 Yes, with more and better chess metaphors than "One Night In Bangkok"



Don't surround yourself with yourself.

This is as close as Yes ever got to swinging.

Chris Squire did some of his best bass work on this one, IMHO.

Well, that's a pretty fine set, despite the fact that we heard the Stampeders tune in a different '71 "encore" a month ago (and despite the presence of uber-LN "JTTW")

and (again just IMHO, maybe hoping to stir some controversy?) we go from two of the most underrated Who & Yes songs to probably the most overrated Zep song.

Personally, I think "Kashmir" is the most overrated Zep song.  But I get your point on Rock and Roll.

Anyway, this is a great set.

This is the one I've been waiting for.  BOS 'Retha.


"Sit yo'sef down in yo' car and take a ride!"

The version of this without the horns is pretty great too.

I agree..  Never really liked RnR that much -- but they had to get it out of their system, I suppose. It reads very tongue and cheek, and simple, especialy when compared to the other stuff on IV (ZOSO)

Misty Mountain Hop is waaaaay more rockin' for instance...  and Levee...?  fugheddabouddit

I dunno, the members are pretty much all on record that they think "Kashmir" was their best work, and they think "Stairway To Heaven" was actually over rated. 

But as my dad always told me, 'de gustibus non disputandem est' - i.e. there's no arguing for taste, i.i.e.e. to each his own.

Gaz, can I get a frink point?

Kashmir is so stoney and droney. It has its place. A friend of mine who drums asked me to learn the guitar part, and we jammed on it. fun to play, but without a singer it sorta lacked something.  :)  It has DADGAD tuning if you're interested.

BOS to Who and Rod

The really remarkable thing about that is that you were mostly MIA for how long, a couple years easy? And you're still no. 2. (C'mon, another 58,000 and you can catch Mike for #1. Right.)

Sure, a round of Frink points for the house!

GEEK ALERT: Just looked at the member list -- sorry to rain on the parade, but you're still in third, 272 posts behind Gaz. But keep showing up the way you have been the last month or so and you'll catch him in a month or two.

Btw, I just noticed that I'm a mere 27 posts away from hitting 14K. Oy vey.

I like Kashmir, but always felt the main guitar riff was semi-lifted from Captain Beefheart.
