I like Paranoid -- but it's just that I like this so much better (last time I was at his house I played it for him and he liked it too): I remember some negative Sabbath comments from you at Dantes Joni Mitchell Quote
mattp Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 That's not what you said when I played it for you, Mr. K. And then, when I played this: I'm telling you, folks, Alpine K loved it !!!!! Quote
AlpineK Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Al Pine'l back me up. He was at Dantes when Sabbath was playing Quote
Dru Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 this thread is no longer a 'rediscovered discs" thread its a "what cool old shit do you liike and who is the coolest" thread Altho AlpineK lost serious coolness for Gong talk about stinky hippie music !! Quote
marylou Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 No broadband, no time to watch the pictures load...but: Young Marble Giants "Colossal Youth" (just got it burned onto a CD from vynil) Go4-MP already got me on that one Some live P-Furs record Everything by the Clash still sounds good as new Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 haven't heard that album in a while, but saw it in the crazy bob's vinyl and had to pick it up... now i remember why it was a favorite during H.S. oh and ditto on the miles davis! Quote
AlpineK Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 There's a huge difference between bands like Gong and the standard American hippy establishment bands Dru But anyway Quote

I'm not clear on Alpine K's "big distinction" but I'd like to point out that Paroah Sanders probably sold almost all of his copies of "Karma" to hippies! I think you started the trend, Dru. Hippy music, and cool (though only a couple of good tracks): Quote
AlpineK Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Brit drug music vs Peace and love bs. Jazz infuence in Gong vs folk music crap I'd agree with Matt about Dru starting the trend. Quote
Dru Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Karma is full of cool groove samples which are still being used today by DJ's. The only samplers of Gong EVER seem to be FSOL on the Elysian Feels album and that was prog-techno anyhow. Karma is Gong is prog-rock psychedelia. I also see you got your van Der Graaf generator on here - why not some Yes and Peter Gabriel era Genesis too STINKY PROG ROCK HIPPIE [i know, I know, I put that FM album pic up, but only cause Nash the Slash was in the band ] Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted October 30, 2003 Author Posted October 30, 2003 SUBLIME Today's Unplayed-For-Days wake-up call is courtesy of the still ahead of its time eleven years later punk/dub/ska/reggae/r & b/hip-hop tapestry known as 40 oz. to Freedom (the original version on cassette with the tracks you can't get on the CD, or anywhere for that matter). Holy wow! Bradley had something special up his sleeve, or maybe something special stuck in his veins; too bad he had it right when he sang "one day I'm gonna lose the war" on the far less classic but not without its brilliant moments Robbin' the Hood. Back to the crates, stacks, and CD racks, folks. Unearth a goodie you never should've buried! Quote

I hate it when that happens. Of course the scratch has to be right during the second verse instead of the repeated chorus. Note that the current Crimson incarnation is 3/4 comprised of Americans, so it could reasonably be called an American band now, but the music is still decidedly British in feel (and of course Fripp is still there). The ProjeKcts albums ! Quote
scott_harpell Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 i have both of the last two records tha are pictured in this thread. am i a junkie? prolly. Quote
