After reading Peter Hook's Joy Division book I went on a JD/early New Order binge for a while. I've always liked the Joy Division records but found them so bleak that I didn't pull them out very often, especially Closer. But after reading the book, …

Thanks for posting that Hannah Williams, just checked her on Spotify and I'm really digging her record. Great voice.

Junior said:Think it's still the closest thing we have to an album that is universally loved on the Strut. Just noticed that it's 25 years old this year. I remember the 25th Anniversary of Sgt. Pepper well and that seemed a lot more tired th…

Finland had a pretty big and influential hardcore/punk scene back in the 80's if you are into that stuff. Finnish bands tend toward the drunken noisy chaotic end of the punk spectrum, key bands were Rattus, Terveet K??det, Tampere SS, Kaaos, worth a…

Actually, guitar pedals have been around for around 70 years. The first volume pedal was released in the late 30's, and the first tremelo in the early 1940's. There are so many pedals out there now it's mind-boggling, and people make some amazingly …

Lemme know who I should be paying off as well please...

Call me uptight, but I definitely have a problem with this. I guess it's not a big deal to run to the store in Uggs and sweats (it seems to be the uniform of college girls around here unless it's Saturday night), but this shit is redonkulous. …

I loved this show so much, I still have old VHS tapes with some episodes on them. It's amazing to be able to watch all of the full episodes again.

When I played out Ol Dirty Bastard's version of "Good Morning Heartache" was always my end of the night song. I liked the idea of having a traditional sign off, like Frankie Crocker playing "Moody's Mood For Love".

A lot of the stuff on the first couple of McLaren LP's is straight jacked from Mahotella Queens and other groups that were featured on some of those "Indestructable Beat" compilations. Not just McLaren's solo stuff, a few of the early Bow Wow Wow si…

RAJ said:This was an early Mo's wall of fame record where I was desperate to hear it and was heavily disappointed. Reminds me of a folkier Gil Scot Heron. I can appreciate it now adays but stiil not something I'd put on. This record never qu…

So disappointed with how my season ended, I play in 3 leagues but this one is the one that I care about the most. Props to the playoff teams.

There's a potentially divisive thread, "Confused" vs "Try To Do Me". Friendships would be tested.
-
One of those LP's that will never sound old to my ears. If it wasn't for "Confused" it would be perfect IMO. "Diamond is dope, nuff said"

What a downer. A musical genius and someone who seemed like a truly decent human being as well. RIP.

We need Phil Most to pop in here and share some wisdom since he was actually at those shows. The impression I got was that the heavyweight dudes were digging but that early on they relied on dealers to find them obscure things that they could use. T…

Excellent mix, thanks for sharing this!

An undeniably great record, by any standard. It would be hard for me to pick a favorite GangStarr LP between this and Daily Operation. When I first moved back to NYC after college in 1991 I moved into Williamsburg a few blocks from the W-burg…

I'm riding for Dre Day, fuck it. One of the most devastating diss tracks ever.

That was the worst half of football I have ever watched. And the single worst play I have ever seen.

It might be a little overrated, but when people think of NYC hip-hop in the early/mid 90's this is what they are thinking of. The sound of Timberlands, blunts, 40's and guns on a cold ass subway platform at 2am.

Review aside, he's still probably going to do well in that location because of tourists and people who don't read these kinds of articles. My job just brought in a bunch of out of towners who had never been to NYC before (for a photo shoot) and a bu…

Skel stays bringing the quotables but most of them are hidden in the Brit thread.

I moved out of NYC 18 months ago. Still no license.
