hxxp://rapidshare.de/files/30271939/Bob_Dylan_Modern_Times.rar Check it out, it's already leaked. (change hxxp to http) This is definitely an ooooold album...not using that as criticism, just a description. The music is a throwback to old roots music - T-Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, Charlie Christian,...

It's amazing to hear his phrasing live and compare it to an album cut around the same time. On record, it's clear, easy to understand. Live...."Ngggehh harannnnnnngh, BLEUH , fyyynnng!" If you can disregard diction and enunciation, I guess the phrasing is commendable based on notes and rhy...

Yeah, that's one to burn.

The Mark Hamill episode, the 'tomacco' episode, maybe the R.E.M. episode...I may try and hack up some Halloween episodes too.

Not sure how easy it'll be to burn compilations of episodes, but hopefully there's an easy application somewhere.

Yeah, I liked Season 8 too, but take a look at Season 9. FUCKING AWFUL. Take a look at Seasons 10-present. More of the same. 8/7c on Sunday nights mean nothing to me now. Unless there's a good game on.

Do people actually enjoy this strip? Seriously, this has to be the saddest shambling wreck of a comic strip I've ever seen. I can't see how a diehard conservative can enjoy this strip on political sympathy alone - its right-wing agenda has mutated into some kind of bizarre, incessant crackpot rant. ...

The idea of it is funny....but I'm not gonna pay $10 to sit through 90 minutes of it. I heard that most of the time, they don't treat the concept as a joke. Shudder.

The two leaked tracks sound pretty good. I actually have strong hopes for this one. Not expecting the 5-star fucking masterpiece UNCUT and ROLLING STONE are claiming, but a solid 4-star album. Anyway, here's the list of rarities to the iTunes package, leaked today. Not impressed. I Was Young When I ...

So I called the Indian kid a monkey...how's that racist?

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. George Allen denies a remark he made to describe an opponent's campaign worker was racially charged, saying in a statement that the media misunderstood his comments. The Virginia Republican called S.R. Sidarth, a volunteer on Democrat Jim Webb's campaign, "Macaca" ...

The LAST set worth getting. From here on out, it'll be homemade compilations.

I said half the music sucks, the other half has merit. The two tracks I posted are actually decent songs, musically and lyrically.

Bob Dylan STREET-LEGAL

I've been giving this another try - listening to the remix, I concede that some tracks are quite good, but at least three are God awful. "No Time To Think" is possibly the worst music of Dylan's career, at least in the bottom ten. "Baby Stop Crying" and "Is Your Love In Vain...

Anyone catch that one deleted thread by "Ben Dover"?

It was "SONGS THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO TAKE A DUMP"

Wow. So what's the real story, 'cause this sounds like some SERIOUS shit, and in an article about a no-name, never-was band of all places. (Well, one with a Buddy Holly connection....)

Go-Betweens - anyone familiar with their CD releases?

Their 1978-1990 CD is highly recommended by some, but it's out-of-print and the asshole merchants at Amazon are selling it for something like FIFTY dollars. I'm pretty sure those prices are inflated, but a local record store says they have it for ten, so I'm gonna check it out later today. How are t...
