Led Zeppelin The Song Remains The Same
Voto:
I agree with Miki, the best version of Stairway is on the double DVD, taken from Earl's Court 1975; the solo in this version is more than overwhelming. A piece of advice for all Zeppelin fans: the double DVD is an absolute must-have, and it also includes part of the concert at Knebworth in 1979, which shows that even towards the end of their career they were by no means washed up...
AA.VV. Trainspotting (O.S.T)

Yes, I have read the book as well, but the film only draws inspiration from the characters and a few episodes, like the one where Renton takes Dianne to bed. The book is, if possible, even more raw and has an even stronger sarcasm. It's definitely worth reading; it's a blast.

At the time, I went to see it in the cinema and I was really impressed. An original film, a fantastic soundtrack that managed to draw from different genres in an innovative way. My favorite scene: Renton's overdose set to the haunting notes of Perfect Day, when they load him into the taxi to take him to the hospital.

Yes, to truly appreciate it, it's worth having the DVD of the film, where you can better enjoy both the beautiful interpretation of "Stairway to Heaven" and "No Quarter," with images of John Paul Jones, dressed as an English lord, riding through a cemetery at night... then there's the whole saga of the epic Plant, transformed into a lone knight arriving from the sea to the castle of his lady to the notes of "The Song Remains the Same," Page climbing the mountain in "Dazed and Confused," Bonzo driving vintage cars to the solo in "Moby Dick"... oops, sorry I got a bit sidetracked, just to say that the film is truly enjoyable, while the best live performances are undoubtedly collected in the triple CD "How the West Was Won," which is SUPERLATIVE.
Oasis Live a Roma 7/2/2006

Completely agree. The first two albums back then (it's been more than ten years now!) were amazing, featuring fantastic tracks like Live Forever and Champagne Supernova, and so on... then since then they've completely lost their way, producing useless albums and an even more useless Liam, busy playing a copy of himself. In short, a complete loss of inspiration. I believe that Noel would still have a lot to say if he could break free from this group and express himself artistically in a different way, without having to label the songs as ā€œOasisā€...
Ryan Adams Demolition

For senior86: buy 29, you'll find it challenging at first, you'll have to listen to it more than once and then you won't be able to get it out of your head. For mr nobodynoparty: it's true, we Ryan fans are a bit of a different breed, we're always very open to accepting whatever new he offers us...
Ryan Adams Demolition

I like demolition because it contains some of my favorite tracks from Ryan's (immense) production: nuclear, a worthy opening piece for the CD, cry on demand, which gives me chills, and the melancholic dear chicago. Ryan's great strength is how he interprets the songs; just as you said, it feels like hearing different singers, and he traverses a wide variety of styles. The review is well done; I'm looking forward to your review of Cold roses, which is his masterpiece. If you don’t have it, you should get it; it’s worth it, it’s amazing. It’s a shame that unfortunate comments will probably follow since Ryan is viewed somewhat poorly around here...

Oops, the vote!
Ryan Adams Gold

I'm sorry, I see a lot of snobbery and hostility towards Mr. Adams, and I really don't see it justified in any way. Gold is not Ryan's brightest album, even though it was the most commercial and the best-selling. But try listening to the stunning Love is Hell or the more recent Cold Roses, released last year, and then try to judge. Ryan is eclectic; he has engaged with various styles, even in the controversial Rock n' Roll, but always in an original way and without getting stuck on a single artistic model. The lyrics are deep and not at all "cowboy-ish"!!! I couldn't care less about what his public persona is like; to me, he's a true talent even if he comes off as grumpy or unlikable. I judge the music, not the persona; otherwise, I would be a fan of the Black Eyed Peas… And please don’t compare him to Eros!!!!
Carlos Santana All That I Am
Voto:
I don't believe that an artist necessarily needs to experiment with new things or change genres to reaffirm their validity over time. However, it seems to me that a record like this one (which I unfortunately had the chance to listen to multiple times during a boring road trip with a friend who wanted me to hear "something truly exciting"...) is really something utterly USELESS. I'm sorry, but if an artist has nothing to say, they shouldn't release works like this. Yet "it's cool to listen to Santana," what can we do? Just avoid it... that's all.
Good evening to everyone!
