Do you ever but on a record or CD that you haven't heard in a long time and it knocks your socks off all over again? For some reason I hadn't heard Neil Young/Pearl Jams "Mirror Ball" in a good long while and when I put it one today it was like plugging my brain directly into 20,000 volts of rock 'n roll ecstasy. Whew!!

What's your latest re-discovery?

    I get that way a lot with Cream. Something with that band...I don't know. Most people think EC when they hear Cream but all I hear is Ginger Baker.

    Down!! their first album.. It is great start to finish. Phil is god and I can't believe this left my rotation for sooo long!

    an album I'm sure very few (if any) people on here know but I recently came across my copy of The Jaynes' "Shop Front Windows", made me hunt our my other albums by them. If you ever see a copy of one of their albums pick it up because they were a great and much under-rated Aussie band (adelaide but I can forgive them that) and the albums are really hard to come by now.

    just realised you can listen to some of the jaynes songs online @ sound cloud because Greg is computer savvy.
    http://soundcloud.com/greg-kavanagh you can also download what he's got there... and you don't have to sign up or anything
    totally recommend downloading the demo for all the colours in the world

    we love thee, all the all of you.... but "we just like you"


    Some great lyrics in that tune.

    I just did Pink Floyd's Animals awed more by that album than The Wall.

    Listen to The Cure Wild Mood Swings, totally forgot how the album takes you on a ride of emotions! Such a fun album.

    That's awesome! I'm just a fan of Ginger Baker because I'm not sure there has ever been someone as constantly stoned as him that played the drums so well. :lol::lol:

    Not a big fan of his drumming but his ability to keep a beat whilst cheesing his balls off was incredible. Something my drummer can't do... How am I going to finally kick him out? That's for another day. :lol:

    Great pick! One day while walking along some railroad tracks I found a five dollar bill. I went straight to the local record store and bought two new records that had just come out- Cream's "Fresh Cream", and Jimi Hendrix "Are You Experienced" and never looked back.

    Mmm. yes. An excellent choice. I still remember the first time I heard it. My 8th Grade history teacher played the LP in class :D

    Every 5 or 6 months I rediscover this album and especially this song.

    Ever pull out an album, thinking, "Wow, havent heard this in a long time, its pure awesomeness!"

    Only to spin it and say,"WTF was I thinking? " .... happens all the time stumbling long forgotten tunes :lol:

    Aww, I loved JSBE. I wonder if I pulled out 'Orange' and listened to it again if I would kick myself. I dont even have a copy anymore. In college I would play 'Bell Bottoms' at 10 on my shitty CD system and tweak the speakers.

    I was in Chinatown Coffee Co, Washington, DC this morning, and Led Zepplin was playing over the speakers. I recognized a lot of the songs, so I'm thinking it was a particular album . . . I just don't know the title. Hearing it reinforced that I was in the right place at the right time. Next the staff played Radiohead's Amnesiac. Very cool!

    In Utero...listened to it almost daily in college, then got away from it. always thought it was about getting fucked up and being sad. now as a dad i believe its about fatherhood, and struggling to be a good one while getting fucked up and being sad.

    The Band is the one band that makes me wish I was born twenty years before I actually was. Such talent. They are appreciated and under appreciated at the same time. Just awesome!! :thumbup: :clap:
