Jack's Mannequin - The Glass Passenger - Crashin'

minitry

Scrumpy, I need some tunes... Can you help me out? You have some good stuff.

Hook me up.

TJ, man...you just made my night. I can talk about music all night as if it were my job. I sometimes wonder why I stick around on a graphics site...which is obviously not my thing...and don't spend my free time on music discussion boards but what're ya gonna do...this place is too cool to leave.

If you want some stuff you probably haven't heard, but (imho) should hear, then I'll give you a few suggestions.

The first on the list (for me) is Paul Weller...absolute legend...but completely unheard of in North America The guy's been rockin' out for 30 years and yet apart from my circle of friends I don't know anyone who knows the guy.

This one's mellow (and I know you love to rock)...but I love this...

...and I have his haircut (and sideburns)

Next I would recommend The Coral. Great band from Liverpool (almost) who do the 60s really well but are a lot more than that...

And I've posted this one before (maybe in the video thread...'cause it's my favourite video ever) but I love the song, video and band. They're Doves and are hugely underrated...not just in North America but everywhere. I can't get enough of this...

Hopefully you like some of these enough to check out more of them...North American radio is so shit it's unbelievable. There's so much good music out there that never even gets mentioned here.

Scrump.

Sadly enough...most would probably have heard only one song of The Jam...I'm think'n http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3fDXsPE0Sc (?).....different direction from their earlier stuff but great nonetheless.



I dont think I could ever get enough Doves....and this video is also great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5yy0whTjAw&feature=channel
Do yourself a favor TJ...buy any Dove's album and youy wont be dissapointed...aaa hell , buy em all.


Yeah...mostly......though there is one exception... The Current http://minnesota.publicradio.org/radio/services/the_current/ ...I listen on a(n almost) daily basis ( and this is come'n from someone who hates what most radio has become)...and they play Doves and a bazzilion other great artists that you wont hear on most of the air waves in the US.....god that's really sad ainnit ....most radio here really does bite the big one....and HARD .

I am confused to what that means.
It could mean mini-try, as in a pathetic attempt to listen to good music.
It could be french for something.
But, as usual, if I don't understand something, I just take it as a compliment.
So, thanks, I do have great taste in music.

You are awesome, that's what I needed. I'll have one for you in a minute.

Ok Scrumpy, try tis out....

He is good though.

Good night and I'll do better next time.

Never heard of paul weller before but now that i have i wish i had 5 years ago.

Brand new start was great....any other songs by him you could suggest or any other unknown artists with his style??

Thanks smitts

That's insane.

Weller was The Jam and Style Council...maybe you know of them? Most of the songs from the same performance as that Brand New Start one above are on Youtube somewhere...really great performance

Try these:

For someone else...do you know Richard Ashcroft at all? He was the singer in The Verve but has solo stuff as well. Not that similar to Weller but I find his music very uplifting (like Weller's).

Hope you hear something above you can dig.


Scrumps

I am tuning into few internet radios to check out some great music. The biggest benefit of internet radios is that there is
a) No need to Download Software
b) 24-Hour Radio
c) Interesting sections for different types of music lovers such as
d) If you want you can install toolbar directly into the browser

Nothing!
Scrumpy... Can you hook my up again?

Something fun, but not too hot. I've been in the sun all day and my head needs something coooooool.

Don't know if this stuff'll do the trick Teej...but it's stuff I'd listen to to wind down.

I'm sure you know the first one...
