    The first 3 albums by these guys from Atlanta are truly exceptional, the Southern 2.0 but not only...
The Black Crowes: Lions
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
The collaboration with Jimmy Page has left behind some dirtier riffs than usual. Not at its best but there's still some flashes here. My rating: 3.6.
Talent and humor.
Not the best collection of the Byrds, but still a decent product.
Debut album.
The Clash: Sandinista
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Full of magical contaminations...
THE CLASH: The Clash
CD Audio I have it ★★★★★
Joe Strummer unsure about "breaking away" from the 101'ers... Did he make the right choice? This album answers the question. Adrenaline-pumping!!

    Not only did he completely strip, but he was also taken away by the carabinieri. I wish I had been there.

Not bad...

    It's hard for me to remember a band more 'confused' than the Cult. They started off goth, back when goth and new wave were at their peak. After the boom of that hair metal/street/glam crap, they turned in that direction too, only to embrace grunge in the '90s with their last self-titled work in '94, if I recall correctly. This has always made me see them as "jumping on the bandwagon of the winners." Even if that album wasn't bad at all. I should give it a listen again...

    They reached the peaks later, yet I really like this very "post-punk" debut; it's a little gem. And in this early 1980 version, there's an extra "Killing An Arab" compared to the already beautiful '79 version, which is not a small feat because for me, it’s one of their best songs.
  • genevincent
    27 oct 14
    Well, yes... KILLING AN ARAB is a great piece.

The Mothers Of Invention: Freak Out!

Could this be the absolute best album by the Stones?

    In theory, I wouldn't even know how to choose my favorite from the Stones; this could fit perfectly in my hypothetical top 3.
  • genevincent
    27 mar 16
    Indeed, it's not easy... anyway, I approve of your top 3. Thank you and best wishes!!!
  • fuggitivo
    27 mar 16
    The best can only be found between 1968 and '72. Even just for the face-smashing explosion of Rocks Off/Rip This Joint, I would vote for Exile, or Sticky, over Beggars at 3rd.

    I am undecided between this and "let it bleed"...
  • luludia
    27 mar 16
    Actually, sorry, I was eating goose... despite the unmistakable cover I thought you were talking about beggar's.... so the best is beggar's on even days and let it bleed on odd ones...

    "Honky Tonk Women/You Can't Always Get What You Want" the perfection made single.

    The Stones are good, but the second act of Götterdämmerung is better.
  • 2000
    28 mar 16
    but what does that have to do with it?
  • j&r
    28 mar 16
    ...but how come you don't know that in Sticky Fingers the Stones have woven numerous musical references to the themes of Götterdämmerung...for example, in "Bitch" there is a clear and blatant citation of Hagen's theme...also, there are numerous references to Wagnerian poems...there is a constant evocation of Scandinavian and Nordic Nibelungic mythology and pantheism, as well as the Aristotelian and metatheatrical union of the Antichrist par excellence.
  • fuggitivo
    28 mar 16
    I don't think it was intentional.
  • j&r
    28 mar 16
    Oh indeed... Richards was a great enthusiast and scholar of European classical music... he was able to perfectly play for hours and hours the Well-Tempered Clavier or Bach's Goldberg Variations... he also used to listen to Mozart, Beethoven and was indeed an avid consumer of Wagner's works... in the same album there is also a song called Moonlight Mile, if I'm not mistaken, which contains highly cultured philosophical references to Sigmund Freud, of whom Jagger was a great admirer... the Stones are much more refined than their demeanor might suggest... we are talking about the Stones... that is, some of the greatest geniuses of the last century... we are not talking about Black Sabbath or some other band of empty heads.
  • j&r
    28 mar 16
    ...and here I have spoken "only" of the purely artistic content...thus I am neglecting their importance at the level of cultural phenomena...in this field, the significance of the Stones is nothing short of titanic as they have shaken, transformed, and revolutionized the way of thinking of Western society as a whole...their impact on cultural phenomena is incalculable...it transcends eras, generations, and oceans...

    Bored trolling, come on you could do better J&R.
  • j&r
    29 mar 16
    ...and I’ll tell you more...Siegfried never died...when Hagen cowardly stabs him in the back, he pretends to die...he will hide in the Black Forest for 2000 years only to reappear in London in 1960 under the false name of Richards Keith...and his sword Nuthung transformed into that guitar with which he "forged" epic riffs.
  • j&r
    29 mar 16
    ...anyway, the only nonsense of everything yesterday was that about Wagner...Richards has always been a great enthusiast of Bach, just as Jagger is of Freud...

    I fell for it only because I don’t listen to classical music. Classical music is for queers.
  • Hank Monk

    "he was able to play the Well-Tempered Clavier or Bach's Goldberg Variations perfectly for hours and hours"

    let's say this also stinks a bit
  • j&r
    30 mar 16
    No...not that one...
  • j&r
    30 mar 16
    "Wagner from queers" are two incompatible concepts... it's like saying Italians are serious people...
  • fuggitivo
    30 mar 16
    I am a serious person. And I am also Italian. And classical is for sissies.
  • fuggitivo
    30 mar 16
    Snobs like you keep classical music away from the people; if today’s 16-year-olds listen to Led Zeppelin instead of Wagner, it’s also your fault. Imagine how great it would be, a world of 16-year-old queers.
  • j&r
    30 mar 16
    I consider myself much more German than Italian in terms of temperament, way of thinking, and character... I am ashamed of the average Italian as I am far above, culturally speaking, that person... anyway, I don’t even feel like I’m gay since I am attracted to female breasts and the vagina... regarding the idea that I would be "to blame" for the fact that 16-year-olds don't listen to classical music, I can't say yes or no since I am 30 years old and I haven't been around 16-year-olds for a long time... let's say it's been about 14 years, if math isn't just an opinion...
  • j&r
    30 mar 16
    Ah, I don't understand why I would be snobbish... because I have culture... it's not a crime to be a well of knowledge... ha ha ha
  • fuggitivo
    30 mar 16
    Why do you put classical music above other genres? This intimidates those who approach classical music.
  • fuggitivo
    30 mar 16
    "I don't even feel like being gay since I'm attracted to female breasts and the vagina" come on, I'll stop here. As revenge, it’s more than generous. No one trolls the boss.

The Rolling Stones: It's Only Rock'n'Roll
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Not up to par with some albums between 1966 and 1972, but over the years I've re-evaluated it.
Produced by The Glimmer Twins (Jagger-Richards).

    "Not on par with some albums between 1966 and 1972" Not on par with ALL the albums between '66 and '72. Still, post-Exile is the one I like the most.
  • Lao Tze

    I've never liked 'Time Waits For No One' much, for me it's one of the few downsides of this album. Then there will be a general softening, except for that bit of roughness brought by Ronnie Wood in Some Girls and the live performance from the end of '70, still at very high levels.

    Terrible oversight on my part... of ALL the albums between '66 and '72. Thank you.
