edna Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I think I got carried away a little. Is this too long? 1- Yes. What s wrong with it? 2- Not at all. It´s very good.
Island Boy Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I know it came during the time when glam-rock was making way for the Grunge movement (and it seemed Rock bands were required to pump out as many power ballads and acoustic numbers as possible), but I'd throw Tesla's 5 Man Acoustical Jam in the mix. Signs was a good initial release. Lodi The Way it is Love Song Paradise
Farin Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 hi Island Boy, Welcome to Songfacts! thanks for the input, but as you can see we already wrapped up the Top Live Albums, of course you're very welcome to participate in the next Songfactors' Choice, which will start in a couple of days
Levis Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 I'd vote for it! If voting wasn't over already... oops
Lucky Posted May 4, 2008 Author Report Posted May 4, 2008 I think I got carried away a little. Is this too long? No. It justs shows how much you like the album, and why. Exactly what we want. I think it's lovely, thanks Fintan.
Levis Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) (Don't give me those looks... I have permission to do this ) MTV Unplugged in New York - Nirvana With their Unplugged session Nirvana shattered the world's opinion of what their 'sound' was. Where past albums and concert performances gave the impression that their angst-fuelled talent usually culminated in music that was very LOUD, this acoustic session proved that the pounding drums, heavy guitars and throbbing bass weren't amped up to drown out a lack of talent. With not much more than an additional guitarist and a periodic cello, Cobain and co. lead the listener through eight reworked versions of their songs - most of which are only album tracks, three songs acknowledging their musical mentors and three songs that belonged to a little known guest band called the Meat Puppets - now most famous for being the band that had Nirvana cover its songs. It starts with a relatively obscure tune from their first album, and ends with a cover of a Ledbelly song that many regard as Cobain's finest vocal performance. listen to this album in a quiet room, turn the lights down low and you're with them - they're playing for you. Edited May 6, 2008 by Guest it's a tune, not a song ;)
Farin Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 (Don't give me those looks... I have permission to do this ) yeah, well - she can write better than me, and I also, sort of 'stole' the nomination from her
Levis Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 We can still credit the nomination to you and the text to me, yes?
Shawna Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 perhaps this thread needs to be locked?
Farin Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 we actually deliberatly didn't lock the thread to give new- or latecomers the opportunity to add their 2 cents (sort of like "great list :thumbsup:") unfortunately that also means that some people don't know that this topic has been finished months ago... sorry Danny, but nominations can no longer be accepted, you can look at the final results somewhere in this thread, or here: Top 7 Live Albums
Shawna Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 OMG i had to chuckle when I read this comment from someone in the results thread: Jim said... Perhaps everyone should post their own "Top 10". Then all the titles could be listed and a vote by the members to determine the "Official" Songfacts Top 5,10, or 20, etc. 'Greatest Live Albums Of All Time'. Unless this was a sarcastic post from someone here who's name is Jim, this is what intelligence is all about, no?
Lucky Posted December 4, 2008 Author Report Posted December 4, 2008 I read that too. I thought maybe Jim in Pa was pulling our legs.
Lissy Posted September 22, 2009 Report Posted September 22, 2009 I have The Doors live at the matrix album. I love it soooo much
