.:.impossible Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Not that the three have much to do with one another other than geography, but have you listened to either Eric's Trip or Broken Social Scene? Don't know them. Eric's Trip were a noisy folk-pop band named, obviously, after the SY song. They have a few albums on Sub Pop and scattered EPs also. I think the most enjoyable in their discography is Love Tara. Can't seem to find my burn of the BSS You Forgot It In People, but safe to say it's sprawling indie-rock, melodic and anthemic and rather varied in members and instrumentation. My recollection is that they are somewhat schizophrenic and at times half-assed, but the ambition and possibility shined through. I never understood the attraction to You Forgot It In People. This is certainly an "overrated" recording in my opinion. I think "at times half-assed" is generous. Every time it comes on, I try to give it a chance. Nothing happening.

porcy62 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 There's no Deep Purple. Yep, and no Pink Floyd, no Nick Drake, no King Crimson, no Zep, no Herbie, no JackieMac...and still no Zappa. I hate to be fatherly even in the forum, it's a full time job with a 18 y/o gremlin around my home, but you see, Baptizum, we that growned up in the album's era, didn't had too much music at hand as you and my son have, so every record we owned, or cassettes, unpayed copyrights, was played hundreds of times. I can sing most of the my favourite vinyls, pops and scratches included, from the first note. So I judge your list as a work in progress...and listen to some other Zappa.

porcy62 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 There's no Deep Purple. That is so wrong. Well, in an album's list, probably not, but in a song's list...Child In Time should be in the 100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
