I created a playlist for this on youtube. Highly recommended.
Yep, a great album, i forgot all about this, me and my band friends used to sit in the music hall and listen to so many albums back in the day, god I miss those times, just picking up all those CDs and listening on my discman sports, back in the analogue days...but you still miss out on great records that you wish you had of listened to..
You should see my music collection (digital). I've got over 2 TBs of music from various artists....and I haven't even scratched the surface of not just what's out there, but that's seminal. For instance, I only ever heard about "Death From Above 1979" the other week. So many indie/obscure/unheralded/cult bands. It'll take several lifetimes for me to find more and collect (digitally).
The thing is, you often read people throwing around band names and then you think "oh yeh, ok", well I have my favourite bands and so they can't be that good, then years later you finally hear that obscure band names music and sometimes it is really great, then you think, why did I wait this long....I guess we just don't always have the time as adults, but sometimes those albums you neglected or assumed as being lame, does change your philosophy, music has that power.
Music is my life. I am such an aural person. I'm finely attuned to sound (probably because my visual abilities are messed up). People's voices can give me migraines or cover my soul with honey.
It does my head in just thinking about how those writers and musicians can live a life and create so much works as well, it's something I find myself thinking about all the time, it's not just that though, usually a great band for instance has 4-5 people, and not only do you need one prolific writer, you need genuinely talented and exciting players who can also sort of write stuff, pretty well..
