Hot Take/ Musical Confession Thread!

Hahaha! I think in this case it all depends on the individual's connection to the artist. I LOVE Lee Morgan's playing and can't get enough, I have more albums by him than maybe any other musician in my collection for that reason. If it was someone else then I can imagine that I would have the same view, but honestly its just soooo good :ROFLMAO:

This from a guy who called up a record label and got them to shop their entire catalog 😂

I'm with you on this. There's precious little Stones that grabs me but some of that shit is fire. Dylan towers over all in song writing but his actual delivery leaves much to be desired. The Who is like top 40 oldies stuff only IMO and that is way overplayed. Truth be told, who cares? It's like this shit is way, way overplayed and definitely overrated. There's so much out there why waste my time trying to conform?

Stones: Sticky Fingers maybe Exile, but you can get most of that from SF.

The Who: meh

Dylan: Yea I like some stuff, but never felt it was necessary to collect his albums.

I know I’m going to get some reacts…… I’m not that big a fan of Smashing Pumpkins or The Violent Femmes… blister in the sun was ruined for me and I just… I just can’t get into that deeply that many SP albums.. yes I’ve tried multiple times.

How old are you? I feel like SP is very much a generational thing. Violent Femmes are meh as hell, though.

That’s fair. I really only love the Pumpkins first 2 albums. In that order. Mellon Collie is good but it’s not their best and it’s bloated.
Anything after Adore is a mystery to me.

This seems like the best forum for this thought:

Let it Be is about to become every 20somethings favorite Beatles Album.
Also early 70s fashion is going to reenter the zeitgeist/conversation. (St. Vincent is kind of ahead of the curve here.)

Even though Todd Haynes upcoming Velvet Underground doc will be less trendy, everyone who watches it will go on to form their own band so…

The best song by the Violent Femmes is Kiss Off and I will scream/sing to that one every time, but otherwise, I got burned out on VF when my HS BF wouldn't stop playing this one and Jimmy Buffett's Greatest Hits.

This is exactly how I feel about SP. First 2 albums were stellar, then Billie got eaten by his personality and things just got weird.
