ReplyDeleteNot much of a GnR fan, the ACDC I can get into.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter, on the other hand, would surely go places Daddy's don't even want to hear about whenever she heard Axl & Co. She was 12-14 when they hit their high mark and you know how those years are for teenage girls.
Speaking of music - missed the game thread last night because I went to see ELVIS COSTELLO!
He was great, played mostly stuff from the new bluegrass-oriented album, although not much of it would qualify as straight bluegrass. Ensemble was him on a flat-top (except 2 or 3 songs that he brought out the electric for), a violin, dobro, mandelin, stand-up double bass, another flat-top/12-string player, and an ACCORDIAN of all things. The bass and the mandelin carried the rhythm, no percussion.
Very cool show. Made my day personally by including TWO dead songs. OK, The Race Is On is actually an old standard, but still. Did a Lou Reed tune also.
Off to see more tonight, much lower key - my friends Dan & Dustin from Big Daddy Love who do acoustic Mondays at a local watering hole. Google 'em, BDL that is. They're not Elvis, but they're pretty cool too.
There is hardly any unreleased AC-DC out there. There was some Bon stuff -- early versions of various songs, including a bunch from Highway To Hell, but a lot of that was put onto the Bonfire box set.
ReplyDeleteGNR made one good album and that was Appetite. Actually, it's a fuckin' great album. At the time, I thought it was better than the nerf metal of its era, but was still very derivative. I don't think that so much now. It's ridiculous how strong it is from start to finish. And I couldn't care less about anything else they have done. Even the stuff I liked from Illusion I when it came out sounds forced now.
I was thinking of trimming the GNR set down to those songs and not including the Illusion stuff (and who the hell needs to hear those guys doing JJ Flash?), but figured I'd up it as is.
Costello has had an amazing career, though I can't say I am much of a fan of most of it (outside of the very early stuff). I'm not sure I've latched onto anything he's does since King of America.
The TV show he is doing now sounds wildly fascinating, though.
ACDC is fun. I hate GnR.

ReplyDeleteLike Allan, I still love EC's early stuff, then I like some stuff here and there (King of America, Blood and Chocolate, when I'm in the right mood). I admire his willingness to go all over the place musically and try so many different things.
I will never for the life of me understand acoustic Elvis Costello, though. I find it either boring or excruciating. But many people love his music that way, so there you go.
Yeah, finally two bands I like, though I kinda like U2. GNR didn't really do anyhting with there covers, they just did the song worse. AC-DC best band ever, how does there old albums compare to Black Ice?

ReplyDeleteTrue. Knockin' on Heaven's Door makes me yearn for the sweet sound of Michael Kay's voice. The Spaghetti CD had its moments, though.
I haven't *really* liked an AC-DC album in forever. RnR Train is good (well, the chorus is, anyway), maybe Big Jack.
But Black Ice flat out sucks compared to Highway to Hell and Back In Black, even FTATR.
I could probably make a kick-ass album by picking songs from the last 25 years.
Yeah, finally two bands I like
I did ask for requests...
