OT: Watcha Listenin' To? Part V

[landsbergfan]

I have many questions...
What is going on here?
What does it mean?
Why does everyone look so sexy?
Why can't I stop dancing and hitting replay?

And you may ask yourself, well,
How did I get here?

I watched some Los Bitchos videos about a month ago for the first time. They rule. I wish they had some lyrics and singing so I could fully embrace them, but they rule just as they are, too. LOVE girl power.

I found out about them a while back from some friends in London who saw them play in a small club. Like half of them are South American I believe but came up in London.

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed that too. Big fan of those surf rock chords.

Such a great album front to back. Could easily be the soundtrack to a movie called "Working From Home". Just press play and let her eat.

I assume there are not many if any at all of you who are Wagnerians.......

But if you are, below are two pictures of Kirsten Flagstad, the greatest Brunnhilde and Isolde.

Before make-up and costume

and after

Her tonal range was huge; her voice in all registers is singular. Her projection was unique. Plus she could act. She was the voice of the century for Wagnerian sopranos.

She was not the fat lady that sings at the end of an opera.......;-)........

Another London based, all girl band who have some pretty damn good songs. Inconsistent and maybe only ~4-5 great songs. But hey.

Didnt know this existed until I heard it in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood - now I love it

As poignant as it was in the 1980s.

Fun Boy Three were always massively underrated for me. Terry Hall is just a fantastic lyricist.

The album Waiting (which this is not off!) for example is amazing, even if the first album was mediocre. Close to as good as the Specials at times.

The Lunatics have Taken over the Asylum
Our Lips Are Sealed
Farmyard Connection
Tunnel of Love
The More I See
Were Having all the Fun
Going Home

but everyone just remembers "It Aint what you Do"... which is sad. Just a mediocre pop song.

Also made one of the most harrowing autobiographical songs ever in "We'll Fancy That". I have a hard time listening to that song... and cant believe he had the strength to even write it... in the early 80's.

Reminds me of The La's - they are only well known for the mediocre pop song "There She Goes" but the rest of the album is so much better. The lead singer actually hated There She Goes too.

Haha.

My Dad is an aquaintance of their guitarist Mike Badger. Has drank with him a few times. One of my Dads best friends played in a band with him on the Rockabilly circuit after he left The La's and they still hang out from time to time.

I am a huge fan of 80s-90s music and grew up on Oasis. Recently after reading an article recently about their 3rd album be here now, I decided to delve back into it.
Def-maybe will always be my #1 and WTSMG was also a masterpiece but be here now and all the drama around the release and the fact the band literally couldn't be in the same room and where doing large amounts of coke led to very mixed results among fans and critics.
But all these years later it's now passed WTSMG for me.
Yes the songs are long and the insane amount of guitars blaring everytime time Liam pauses is a bit over the top but the songs " stand by me”, “All around the world” and “Right here right now” are such good songs even if they are 7-9 mins long.
I hope some day, music reaches the levels us post-baby boomers, pre millennials got to enjoy while growing up.
Also bleach, nevermind and dookie, are always on rotation for me.
When I'm really drunk slippery when wet and hysteria or any Def Leopard usually make an appearance.

Haha. The UK music scene is not "that" big even though produces a lot of music... and they are from Liverpool so only an hour from where I grew up in Manchester. Plus with my brother, Dad and a lot of the people I grew up with have a lot of random friends of friends in music.

Finally found the copy of Nevermind on vinyl i've been looking for today. This is a 180 gram German remastering done by Pallas in 2013 using the original master recordings. Next to the OG pressings from 1991, which are extremely pricey, this is the best copy to own and only ran me $25.

Edit: It sounds absolutely amazing
