I'm sure I already wrote about seeing a private-invite acoustic set that was a peak of my RT fandom. That said, I don't think any of his lineups/setlists have matched the Gregson/Collister tours. Always great though. Several of the last few albums have been great - I rank Electric and 13 Rivers in his top 6 studio albums. Though the live ones are as important and would rank: Faithlessby Paganizer
They were real musicians, so it's more like David Soul and Paul Michael Glaser forming a law enforcement union. Sad day - Peter fought it off for so long. I've explained before my love of the 'Kees.by Paganizer

Wow I was listening to Free Dirt yesterday as well. It's the only one that I really like (well, and Lost) and the one that still gets played every year but well wishes nonetheless. NP:: Mould - Sunshine Rockby Paganizer

We stayed to see them momentarily after some multi-bill - maybe the Butts or summat. It was extreme-mugging-trumps-musicianship and fratboy puke flowing down the aisles. I do recall a crazy Fishbone show or two. Barely. That said, Frusciante drips talent and Flea is fine in other contexts.by Paganizer
Those kids were hip - I didn't find CT for another year. The lack of ideas/knowledge/footage/band participation/professionalism caused a rush for other content - in this case hair. But come to think of it, that WAS one of The Man's obsessions BITD. edit:: wait - why was Stipe in STL? Post Edited (01-07-19 01:10)by Paganizer
Pitchfork has moved squarely into the Beyonce/Swift/Sheeran/Mitski/Kanye/teens demo, so none of its readers noticed anyway. Their current writers care more about post-millennial-manifesto social shaping, and mass readership. There's little room for authentic critique. Ah well, that's why we have Consequence, Gum, Drunkard, Bearded, Drowned, etc.by Paganizer

Well don't forget he did have his own talk show. I didn't catch the tour but the new album was one of many this year that I didn't "get" until four or more tries. His best overall of the last several (more consistent than Wise Up Ghost).by Paganizer
A year doesn't go by without a run through Kitchen, Bites and Tension. Just listened to Kitchen last month! I know they didn't have the mainstream popularity in the states as in the UK - but the history books will always credit them with pressing themselves . I was probably at the same shows as Devin but it was n Manhattan that I got to talk to Shelley. One of those English tea gent typby Paganizer
I guess my "current" music collection would be different than my "general" collection. But my music collection as a whole is probably 600 titles on vinyl and twice that many on CDs. I've no idea when CDs passed vinyl - maybe late '90s? My MP3s are across multiple devices - a mess ... or a surprise? I purged about 100 records and 200 CDs about 10 yrs back. Stilby Paganizer

Airplane didn't but Balin wrote the original incarnation of J.Starship's biggest hit: Miracles. His influence was the love ballads and he pulled hard for years against playing the psychedelia until he quit and then they went though the Mickey Thomas version ("Jane" "Find Your Way Back"). Then they had the serious assault thing and became a project for Peter Wolfby Paganizer

TMR is the 6th best CB LP. It's possibly the most challenging, FWIW; maybe a work of awe even. But even as a fan I may never listen to it again. Best are Clear Spot and Shiny Beast easiest entry point is Safe as Milk I am partial to Ice Cream but it's not a good entry point Bat Chain [2012] is also great, but it's like an alt version of Shiny Beastby Paganizer

I had coincidentally come across the CD recently in a derelict stack (with no recollection of what they sounded like other than Teen Beat-y or Dischord-y) so was able to queue up. I vaguely recognized the dialogue/scene but had to google. Some time back I did the Kafka thing (much after viewing all the Welles films).by Paganizer
