Ace albums you own that you forgot about

[Guest Eskimo-Boy]

Madvillain's Madvillainy is proper rap.. old school baby.

 

 

mmm mmmmm:biggrin:

Feeder - Swim/Polythene/Yesterday Went Too Soon/Echo Park.

[A-G]

Ben Harper - Live from mars.

I thought i lent it to a mate and never got if back but i found it after not seeing it for a few years.

[sh#t waffle]

I have only read this page, so apologies for any repeats.

 

Agree on the Spiritualized one. Ace packaging too. I have the blister pack (unopened. I didn't want to. I bought a normal version of it too).

 

My packaging is certainly showing 10 years of use. I'm sure yours is worth some cash, but the holy grail is the promo they released which was a pill box, with a mini cd in blister pack for each track on the LP. I believe I read a story about a skint Jason Pierce trying to flog some in Camden market a few years ago..

Downloaded a few albums i used to have on vinyl but have been scratched to fuck over the years.

 

Albums that were ace at the time but grew utterly unlistenable and then the cloudy nostalgic haze makes them strangely listenable again...

 

Soul Mining - The The

Some Great Reward - Depeche Mode

Architecture & Morality - OMD

This is Big Audio Dynamite! - B.A.D.

The Hurting - Tears for Fears

Sandinista - The Clash

Life's Rich Pageant - R.E.M.

New Gold Dream - Simple Minds

Ghost in The Machine - The Police

[Dr.Filth]

Roger Waters - Amused to Death.

Listening to it now for the first time in about 10 years.

Quality!

[Stouffer]

From the muddy banks of the Wiskah - Nirvana.

 

Oh baby, what an album.

[RoboRiise]

Shit, Small Victory forgot that one too, i would have love to have seen them live.. on PJ - Even flow was a tune also.

 

Heh. Saw them twice - the Phoenix Festival in 1993 and at Maine Road supporting Guns 'n' Roses the year before, where the warm up act for those two was Soundgarden. They were incredible both times.

 

The best live band I've ever seen were Senser, who you may or may not have heard of (fairly politically active rapcore-ish band around in the early to mid nineties that were absolutely astounding live) but FNM were a very close second. I only saw them play at stadium sized gigs too, I imagine they would have been better still in a more intimate venue.

 

By contrast, I saw Mike Patton play with Mr Bungle at Rockworld in Manchester, which is the epitome of a small venue and was also pretty much my local at the time, and they were absolute shite, shambolic from start to finish and not in the good Las Vegas way; in fact it was one of the worst gigs I've ever been to.

Thats a cracker, but there are better Nirvana live albums around mate. There a loads and loads of factory pressed bootlegs out there, they pop up on ebay now and again....Play the fucking guitar man is worth getting hold of, as is Leer and Roma.

 

Theres quite a market for Nirvana boots and some of them pass for a tidy sum, but those 3 are sound....good quality recordings, with some audience noise aswell.

Feeder - Swim/Polythene/Yesterday Went Too Soon/Echo Park.

 

I've never really got Feeder. They're one of the most middle of the road dadrocky bands around.

Post Echo Park I agree, but upto and including that they were superb. As I told Owen the other night (I think), they toured with The Stereophonics and caught shit-itis. I really recommend listening to the albums I mentioned.

 

Anyway, the topic:

 

Fenix TX - Lechuza.

[Owen]

Senser

 

Blimey, that's a blast from the past. You have me listening to Pitchshifter next.

Yeah, they used to jump around in orange boiler suits. Yesterday Went too Soon is a brilliant summer album. He started writing more complex tunes and harmonies, and so Taka couldn't bounce around during the live shows.

I think Jon Lee's suicide had an effect too.

[Owen]

No doubt.

[Karl_b]

No doubt.

 

They still show signs of excellent rockage at times. There was one track on the last album (name escapes me) which was superb.

Are you all sitting comfybold two-square on your botty? Then I'll begin.

 

Small Faces - Ogdens Nut Gone Flake.

 

Notable mentions to..

 

King Crimson - Lizard

Gong - You

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Rollins Band - Life Time...amazing high impact, high octane blues jam. If you can't get your aggression out to that album, then there is no hope for you.

[Karl_b]

Stereophonics - Word Gets Around

 

For some reason I've never put it on my iPod so did last week sometime. Awesome album.

[hamstrung]

Graceland - Paul Simon

[Stu Monty]

Some brass magic on that baby.
