RIP Terry Hall. Fuck sake man Yes R.I.P Terry Hall, I've just seen it on the news. This is very sad news indeed. I loved The Specials and Fun Boy Three they made some great songs. |

Both Hall and Duffy gone too soon I couldn't believe the news about Duffy at first. Primal Scream is my favourite band and I've always loved Duffy's keyboards in their music as well as the Felt albums he played in. As Bobby wrote today, he was the most skilled musician of them all. But also the youngest and he would've had a lot to offer even in this day and age when it comes to music. |

Sure, Corpsegrinder may be a death metal vocalist but he's also wearing his heart on his sleeve. Bravo for that toys to charity haul Mr. Fisher.

Jeff Beck is so overrated. Most overrated guitarist and musician ever.

RIP Maxi Jazz, hard to believe that he did actually die in his sleep.

Someone described The Clash as The Beatles of punk rock but I think it's an insult to The Clash.

Right now this is my favorite song on the planet. Absolute earworm perfection from early R.E.M.
"Empty prayer, empty mouths combien reaction
Empty prayer, empty mouths talk about the passion
Not everyone can carry the weight of the world..."

The best song Dennis East ever wrote outside Stingray was Trouble, which John Farnham recorded
I get the feeling it's about Las Vegas

Rolling Stone leaving John Farnham out of their 100 (American and commercial) singers of all time is a criminal offence

My friend recently released his first song. His lyrics are portuguese but his music also have a lot of British influences (The La's especially). Give it a try  |

Bridge over Troubled Water was so close to be perfect. So sad that is kind of unfinished, it had potential to be top 5 albums of all time.

Bridge over Troubled Water was so close to be perfect. So sad that is kind of unfinished, it had potential to be top 5 albums of all time. Wait, actually? I never knew that tbh. Enlighten me lol It's a solemn ending with the cover Bye Bye Love and Song For The Asking intentionally suggesting the end of their partnership. Although it was never meant to be so deliberate. I read somewhere (that I can't for the life of me find where) that there was a song on side two that was on the original tracklist but was taken off as Garfunkel didn't like it. I can't recall what this song was (it may have ended up on a Simon solo album), but given the album's rather muted end, it's exclusion does add to the feeling that it is unfinished. It's by no means a bad ending, but having a cover as one of the songs also feels like a cop out even if it suits how they felt at the time. It's a nagging imperfection on an almost perfect album. |
