Never heard this, it quite rules. Can hear Grace alright.

1979 though! Futuristic.

Prepare to listen to it 20 times. Ive just played it thrice

Patrick Cowley production. What a talent

 

[Lili Marlene]

Here's something you may not have come across unless you dive deep, PFunk trying space age disco for real. I'd say this one is more Bernie Worrell than Bootsy Collins and all the better for it. 1978.

Probably what you write after seeing Star Wars and Close Encounters on a George Clinton amount of drugs.

I've listened to all Grace Jones albums this weekend in order.

The AMOUNT of bass on 2008s Hurricaine ,compared to even the records she did in Jamica in 80 ,is mad. Its amazing how production styles have changed throughout the years ..no doubt due to the removal of the technical limitations of vinyl amongst other developments

Also her 70s disco records are unlistenable

We had the same barber for a brief period.

Speaking of Disco Grace Jones.. how is this not her? This is good disco

Eddie Vedders vocal delivery seems strongly influenced by Joe Cocker. And that's amusing to me somehow. I assume there's other similar singers I've not thought of, but I thought I need a little help from my friends.

We were at a friend's house last night and coincidentally were talking about Eddie vedder's voice. He suggested Eddie vedder basically was an indie Ronan Keating.

Imagine listening to an Eddie Vedder solo album.

 

[prefuse]

Vedder had a Christian rock side project in the late 90s.
He did the vocals in the studio and they hired a model to be the front man.

Oh god, I do have some evangelical friends who back then, were baffled that I was perfectly grand with something like pearl jam, which I am in measured doses, so therefore how could I not like creed?

It's like "you like Radiohead so how can you not like Muse?, Or "you like Metallica how can you not like bon Jovi?"

The differences are tiny, but very important

I like some Pearl Jam records just fine.

That is what his voice actually sounds like it's literally a recording of his actual voice

He's pretty decent when singing other people's songs

Nice bit of advice towards the end of this from Paul Simon about using musical repetition in songs judiciously. Smart dude.
