-
My co-workers are def questioning my masculinity but then again they're cops not known to be the brightest breed.. I'm looking forward to seeing Mamma Mia far more than ANOTHER batman movie.. the heath ledger point will compel me to see it because regardless of his death he was a helluva actor..
as for Mamma Mia.. i hope its pulled off well.. i've seen the stage play in kansas city.. atlanta.. and Vegas.. Absolutely love it.. haha the kids better like it too i'm takin them..
-
Umm as for commercial stuff.. just saw Hancock.. and though will smith is gettin a little tomcruised to me. i actually liked it.. found it entertaining.. and it seemed quick.. it never dragged out..
As for funny stuff.. caught an old Roger Corman indy movie from the early 70's called GASSSS With Cindy Williams (Laverne and Shirley) and Ben Vereen.. that.. was..... umm interesting.. i couldn't stop watching at 2:35am.. Follow it? not a chance.. but it was memorable..
-
I remember Sha Na Na's TV show. I liked Bowser. That's about all I remember.
I know you tease out of love Tim. Lord knows I've done some teasing you.
I liked Donny.. never got a chance to see a lot of brothers on tv back then LOL

Got em on my Myspace page.. lol.. they rock.. when they come back to Atlanta I'mplaying hooky from the station!!

Feargal Sharkey.. the english solo artist.. Big fan of his back in the 80's heard him on a cool ass show on WXRT in Chicago called "Rock over London".. it came on Wed at 10pm i never missed it..
"A good heart" went to #`1 in the UK but hit only 74# in the US. and an even better song.. "You little Thief" hit 5# in the UK but never even charted here.. Feargal was even on an American Bandstand episode i remember. Dangit.. thought i would be ahead of the boys in the hood with him.. but he never got anywhere here..

Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight
Yeahh i gotta give it up to you Barry.. that and "you never give me your money" LOL gotta be Paul behind that..
That theme on abbey road.. plus George's stuff makes it my favorite..
-
Maybe not my top 5 either. But definitely my top 10.
I think probably my favorite all time 10+ minute song would have to be Atom Heart Mother.
Low Spark of high heeled boys.. Traffic...
-
I totally agree Barry.. when Terry Kath playing around blew his head off. Chicago.. just sank.. the syrupy Peter Cetera stuff is what everyone remembers now..
Ironic.. Cetera won't return or from what i understand doesn't communicate with the guys at all..
Terry Kath.. man.. Questions 67&68
-
I don't remember anything on GFRR and drugs.. i know that they got ripped off badly by their manager..
Too young to have seen em.. but its funny that with as many records they sold.. the critics hated em and seemingly they get left out when great bands are discussed.

- Owner Of A Lonely Heart -- Yes
- My City Was Gone -- The Pretenders [smaller](Give this clip about thirty seconds for audio to improve. One of my nominations for Songfactors' Choice Top Ten #119)[/smaller]
YOu know who has totally ruined that song for me.. i can't get him out of my mind when i hear it.
- Owner Of A Lonely Heart -- Yes

I don´t think many people know this song, "Sensitive" by Mick Karn, bassist of Japan and Dali´s Car ... it´s a cover of Brazilian singer Roberto Carlos´ song, "La Distancia"...
WOW take me back. that Dali's Car album was awesome.. it was Mick Karn of Japan and Peter Murphy of Bauhaus.. kind of a one off thing.. that was fantastic album.. i liked it better than Peter's solo stuff..
-
I simply wasn't a big fan of the new version of Hotel California.. the twin guitar attack of Fielder and Walsh really nailed that song for me.. and the flamenco thing.. just didn't get me
As for Stairway.. i had to vote for it.. i love Page's solo.. it just tells a story and builds on itself.. i read plant quote that he always thought that Kashmir would be the song that people would flip for.. Well its good.. and we don't need to go through that Puffy incident
-
"Leaving me Now' By Level 42.. it has a great piano lick..
Partial to Head over Heels by Tears for Fears too.. its soo damn simple yet really good..
Might i also add. "Captain of her heart" by DOuble.. thats .. good one..
-
NOOO its not Living Colour.. that album of theirs stain was wild. this is a three piece outta england.. I'll look around the mess of my place for the cd..
BTW the best Living colour song IMO is "Nothingness" written by the drummer Will Calhoun..
-
I have a cd i've had since college (late 80's early 90's) of a british band three piece called STAIN. their black i think (tough to tell from picture but i believe so)..
Its great however i've googled it and man i can't come up with it.. Has anybody heard of them.. or heard em? One part of a lyric to a great song is.. "My father once said.. its better to be.. strong than the weak.. shepherd than the sheep..my father once said..

Hey i'm Jeff. cop in atlanta originally from Chicago... I have a varied taste.. but i'm a total sucker for 80's new wave stuff.. i do luv the classic rock and I'm goin to see Mamma Mia when it opens.
ALso huge guitar guy.. Beck, Hendrix,.. Bloomfield..

I find it kinda funny.. I find it kind of sad.. dreams in which I'm dying are the best i've ever had..
Tears for Fears.. "Mad World"..

Page & Plant - Big Log
My love is in league with the freeway
Its passion will ride, as the cities fly by
And the tail-lights dissolve, in the coming of night
And the questions in thousands take flight
My love is a-miles in the waiting
The eyes that just stare, and the glance at the clock
And the secret that burns, and the pain that grows dark
And it's you once again
Leading me on - leading me down the road
Driving beyond - driving me down the road
My love is exceedingly vivid
Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles
Distance and longing, my thoughts do provide
Should I rest for a while at the side
Your love is cradled in knowing
Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come
Sensing too well when the journey is done
There is no turning back - no
There is no turning back - on the run
My love is in league with the freeway
Oh the freeway, and the coming of night-time
My love is in league with the freeway
Just Plant on that one.. the second album principle of Moments.. Robbie Blunt on guitar.. great track..

John Entwistle
Jack Bruce
Paul McCartney
to name a few....It's hard to say the best...I think they are all great and all have their own styles....very hard to compare....
I really like the bass in The Animals tunes....don't know the guys name...I'll have to look it up....
My daughter's boyfriend would tell you it's Jaco Pastorius all the way....
That'd be Chas Chandler.. the guy who "discovered" Jimi Hendrix..

So in Love OMD..
