African Dub Chapters 1-4 are amazing. Can't beat a bit of Greensleeves output on a nice sunny day like today . 1 Quote

Hobbayne Posted June 29, 2019 Posted June 29, 2019 I've just dug out the debut album by The Police "Outlandos D'Amour' I havent heard it in years. Great simple bass lines by Sting before he became a monumental bellend. 😋 4 1 Quote

The album might be quite progressive in albums that were released in the years from 1977 to 1982, by quite famous bands that could be categorised as progressive rock bands, which make me like that, I mean, I like the album that could be quite progressive with a bit of the taste of jazz fusion, which would have put the album beyond my taste, if had been added quite more. Anyway, cheers! "Quite progressive" - just a bit! Alan Holdsworth, John Wetton, Bill Bruford and Eddie Jobson 🙂 Quote

I'm afraid that, as an equal opportunities misanthropist and probably as a serious minority, Sheryl does absolutely nowt for me. It feels lumpy, there's no groove or syncopation and it doesn't have metaphorical cojones. And funnily enough I've just been listening to this: 1 Quote

No problem, good job we're all different etc. 🙂 Definitions of groove, syncopation and cojones are all subjective too of course, and I realise that I'm in quite a small minority on here liking the stuff I do. FWIW Primus do nowt for me (too shouty / overplayed / naff guitar sounds etc) and I frequently have this same debate with our PA engineer who loves 'em, playing their stuff at soundchecks to try to convince me what I'm missing!! Mark me down as dinosaur I guess 🦖 1 Quote

And also why I don't like Sheryl - and most other bands where the musicians back a singer, as opposed to the singer being an equal part of the band (btw, I like brown sauce on my chips 😆). It probably stems from the fact that I don't really like singing as such - much prefer rhythmic shouting/rapping/chanting etc. And while I love what many of our more 70s oriented brethren might call "overplaying"(*), can't be doing with oversinging - whether it's the latest Mariah wannabe or opera... * I like jazz! including free improv!

The fact she plays guitar, piano and (on one song) bass only makes me warm to her more. We're probably polar opposites in our tastes - not a big fan of shouting / rapping / chanting stuff, although think we agree on oversinging so there's a start....😂 1 Quote
