My PJ Radio guessing game....

After a mere 24 hours, I find myself trying to guess the year the song is from as soon as it starts. I am having no trouble getting 91-93. The drums, Jeff's backing vocals and the overall rawness of the performance are easily detectable. 94-98, it gets a little tougher for me, but I can usually get them. 98-2008 very hard to tell which year is which. The newest stuff, 09-10 I seem to get pretty easy too. Mike has really established a live sound and Ed's voice has become more of a well tuned instrument than a vehicle to express unfettered emotion. There are not many moments of the uber-scream from 91- 98 that sounded as if Ed's throat may be bleeding when the song was done.

I just might have too much time on my hands...... :ugeek:

    I maybe able to do that in a week or two, maybe even by the exact year if I keep listening like I have so far!
