keyse1 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Have you heard this one A sort of greatest hits although if you don't like the ones with Linda maybe just not for you I like the older ones from the 70's 80's mostly He is difficult so I understand that not for everyone I have seen him twice The last time in Byron at the pub in 90's I think Could have heard a pin drop Played every song I really like The first time he was with Loudon Wainwright The classics certainly has all the good songs but I am too familiar with the originals 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't everyone's cup of tea, and think the voice has a lot to do with that. But as a guitarist and songwriter he is top shelf. Great in concert, have seen him many times. As for the Still album, I love it, and don't personally see much of a Jeff Tweedy influence at all. I mean...what can you teach Richard Thompson about guitar playing and song writing. Nothing. I have all the Wilco catalogue, and 3 or 4 albums by artists produced by Tweedy, for mine his influence on Still is minimal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citroen Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I'm not that familiar with Thompson, and so the Acoustic versions are my benchmark. Will have to check out the originals as well. I'm more familiar with Wilco, and so think that Still has a Wilco edge. But it seems from all the glowing reviews that Richard probably sounds that way already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal beat Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 JEWEL - Pieces of You I haven't listened to this for long time but do remember loving it at the time, 20 years ago! But rekindled by a post here, I replayed it and heard something very good, very good indeed. So of course bought the vinyl (Music On Vinyl 2xlp reissue). The title track alone is worth it. Beautifully recorded, the vinyl way surpasses the CD I have. Its so much more real and solid, as all good vinyl is... Thanks for that C. Same here, been a while since I have played it. It's on the platter now. Original US pressing. Might put her 2nd LP on over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hired goon Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Dubmarine - Depth Of Sound -- Brisbane band, a mix of dub and reggae Dubarray - Ebb & Flow -- Dunno whence they came, maybe the Sunnie Coast like Oka, peddling a hippie dub/ethno/dance vibe. Salmonella Dub - One Drop East -- more dub/reggae shiz from across the Dutch. --Geoff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABG Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I was referring to the Bob Dylan vocal sample, I think it's from 'Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues' "I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough". I love the way they used that sample.

A quick phone call to your butler - "Jeeves, the second Jewel album this weekend. Bring it on over to the house if you would." 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundfan Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I was pleasantly surprised to find that the local Sanity store had a small range of vinyl in stock. While most were priced way to high IMO, I did pick this Ryan Adamls LP up for $22.00. Great price, and it's an excellent recording of some of his best songs. Glad I didn't order the 6 LP set though, I much prefer to hear him with a backing band, rather than him on guitar,harmonica and piano. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundfan Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 The Sussex US first pressing of this great album is near reference quality. And "Cause" is one of his best 2 or 3 songs. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likwidsh0k Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) ^ We gotta thread for that Turned onto the band by their Elephants video. Amazing album, feels a bit like Radiohead (and The Cure thrown in too) with ethereal female vox, very very noiiiice! With fantastic cover art by Chris Cunningham, famous for the Aphex Twin - Come to Daddy video among others, and married to the bassist.
