Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.

Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.

Two days into the new one, feels remarkably like the old one. Same old peeps doing and saying the same old things. Frankie and the Witch fingers ask the question...

Dinnertime and a random song with even more random whoas. So many whoas. Sometimes extending out into whoa oh ohs.

Sometimes the whoas are launched on their own in the background, sometimes in tandem in the foreground. Thank fuck for a producer who isn't a perfectionist - did they even have a producer?

Misanthropy never sounded so joyful.

Has to be played loud...

blackers Thursday, 2 Jan 2025 at 10:37 pm new

Sounds like a new theme there Stu - so many whoahs.

Ha @b6 just played that on my phone and left it going while I went into office to do an invoice and it’s going for ages. I’m thinking gee this song is long. Come back into lounge and it’s playing on rage.
First time ever hearing it. Uncanny

basesix Saturday, 4 Jan 2025 at 10:52 am new

haha, that's what I've got on : )
I'll let you know if anything else good comes on.

Snuck out at night to go see this band on my own at the MCG Hotel when I was about 16.

Rootbeer might of opened for them:

Great band though their wailing Kiss and Van Halen-style guitar rock fell out of favour as the decade wore on. Saw Asylum, which was Marc Welsh's original band, a few times. Came from the Gold Coast - you ever see them TBB? - before they split up and Welsh moved to Melbourne and joined HAND.

He's back on the Goldy, still surfing, and doing great artwork.

Rootbeer

Huh id forgotten all about them had a few songs on a mixed cassette like this one, seems they have been playing of late.

blackers Wednesday, 8 Jan 2025 at 08:31 pm new

Something new from the old dart, A band that "wish to explore the bleak and beautiful honesty of a nation in an ever growing state of depression through personal experience...". Language warning on this one.

Roy Buchanan
Some say the best ever,
Taken way too early.
Out doing Neil Young. ?

Exxotixjeff Thursday, 9 Jan 2025 at 09:59 am new

Roy Buchanan , seriously good .
The train always leaves at 3.09

mattlock Thursday, 9 Jan 2025 at 08:26 pm new

My mate told me firsthand about seeing Roy Buchanan here in little old Radelaide in the 80's.
Roy was so wasted he could barely sit on his stool. He mumbled something about Coopers and Adelaide weed and then proceeded to make tweeeeeeeeep noises for about 20mins. Then staggered of.
Disappointing considering what he was capable of.
Then again he is not the only one to fall victim to Coopers and Adelaide weeeeed.

Exxotixjeff Thursday, 9 Jan 2025 at 08:57 pm new

Sounds like Roy might have had some woman problems,
Driving him to hit the bottle.?

Really? He was arrested for domestic violence and in the local lockup when he hung himself. More than a few people thought he was a wanker apparently. According to Keef Richards, he, Eric Clapton and Ronnie Wood pissed in his beer.

So what’s your point
He sings about his woman cheating on him,
and I’ll see you in hell ,
I didn’t say he wasn’t a wanker .
You just have to listen to different versions of Roy’s Blues .

blackers Thursday, 9 Jan 2025 at 10:03 pm new

My point is he physically abused his wife. You said he had women problems that lead him to drink. That is a pissweak excuse.

Sounds like Clapton , Wood and Richard’s were wankers themselves, Except the narrator wasn’t sure if the story was true?
LoLo
And as the narrator said,
Drunk musicians have a warped sense of humour.

Well der a cheating wife , is a woman problem, which can lead to drinking,
I wasn’t excusing anything that happened after that,
Because I didn’t actually know what happened
So how can I be excusing something I didn’t
Know that happened,
I actually said
Sounds like he might have had some woman problems, from listening to his lyrics.

Sounds like you’re overreacting,about something I guessed at from his lyrics,
Your the one with all the information.
Sounds like you’ve been listening to too much beer skulling music again !

You really are not very bright Jeff Ciao malaka

seeds Thursday, 9 Jan 2025 at 10:33 pm new

Maybe he was a carrot cake which led to her escapism.
Which led to his shitty blues.
Or maybe his alcoholism created both.
He is awful.

Well neither are you
assuming everyone knows what you know, and then overeacting about it,
Your the one playing the beer skulling music, don’t have too many, you might keep overreacting.

If you do, I dare you to post it.

Actually Jeffy , have you thought about starting your own thread on Trump & Musk ? Your audience would then have all the information in one place instead of spread out over different threads . It would also free up the US thread .

ABBA and Jerry A. Jerry's first gig was an Abba show he went to with his mum. Rock n roll baby

The interview where he talks about influences and early gigs:

blackers Friday, 10 Jan 2025 at 05:03 pm new

Nice. My first gig was the Uncanny X-Men at the Pier Hotel, Frankganestan. Got kicked out for being under aged and badly dressed. Sing it loud like the Orwells.
