85% of all blues I heard. Mostly it's a single theme of misery - a million records or gigs long. We've all heard it, you know the; du-du-du-du-du duuuuuuuu-du! dudu du! endless cycle. At gigs you are even meant to applaud when one of musicians in a group manage to solo for a minute or two. Which they always always do. Why? No more please.

Sounds like jazz.

Yes it happens often in jazz too but jazz is good music hence they are all forgiven.

All post trad jazz. I know it is brilliant but I can't get to the off switch quick enough! (unless it's the Archers in which case I can cross the kitchen before you could say; "Tum, ti...)
JAZZ, I even hate the word, look at it; all spikey and horrid, could you write a more ugly word?

There may be more posts after this.
Its just a thread for people who eg like pop, but don't like the Beatles etc. I like a lot of rap, but Eminem does nothing to me. Nothing fanatical about it.
Sounds like the wrong kind of blues.
You can try to hide. You can try to run. It will not work. They will find you. They will get you. They will teach you. They are right, you know.
ha - I was just about to post that I should like Radiohead and Nick Drake based on my general tastes and they seem to be almost universally rated.
Can't get through a single song by either artists
I think it's the fact like they don't sound like they care about getting to the end of the record themselves...
Peter Gabriel
I'm a huge fan--I love Genesis' Gabriel era, love So and Us, and in my opinion, the man's greatest works: 4 (Security) and Passion. Passion has always been a dessert island disc of sorts.
But 1, 2 and 3?
Eek!
The better works thereon--Solisbury hill, Beko, Here comes the flood (I love the rearranged version on his best-of) et all--do not excuse such blights on an otherwise impeccable career.
2? Should be struck from the set of integers: henceforth 1+1 = 3!

dress like tools and pretend to be all peace and love, and then shave the beard and hair off and back into the suit for the next 11 months in the banking industry.
So the spend the other 11 months of the year dressed as tools as well. After the banking debacle perhaps we should ban suits, shirts and ties. Then we would have no more banking crisis just like banning hoodies caused an end to teenage gangs.
Personally I hate Stockhausen, I would rather listen to someone dragging stones down a window pane.

I'm pretty much the opposite here, I can take or leave Genesis, and Gabriel lost me at 4, but I love 1, 2, and 3. I played 3 "Melt" just yesterday.

Yank, that's a very polite way of saying that naptrel's as wrong as a wrong thing going the wrong way down wrong street. 1, 2 and 3 are, for me, head and shoulders above the rest of PG's output.

Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
"2" is *infinitely* superior to "1" - the Fripp production is a breath of fresh air.
If you want to hear the best version of "Here Comes the Flood", the version for solo piano, bookended by some Frippertronics on "Exposure" can't be beaten.
All IMHO of course
