Thread: What CD can you listen to over & over again?

I can listen to Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band all day. I have 23 albums by Bruce but my favourite is "Live 75 - 85" 3 cd's. Followed by "78 Tracks".

Best thing is my MP3 player in my Calais that will hold 6 discs with up to seven albums on each disc. Not too bad when there's over 800 songs to choose from while cruising this great expanse.

Brilliant album. I have the vinyl box set and is a treasured possession. My favourite on that box set is his version of Tom Waits, Jersy Girl. My favouritre Album of his is Nebraska.

Here is an old (scratchy) version of Tom Waits singing it. My all time favourite song

Kicking myself about Zebra - John Buttler ..... who could forget those opening beats ..... unfortunately the guys at work listen to MMM and they beat the daylights out of it.

History repeats - Propellor Heads and Shirley Bassey. Featured on the Jaguar Car ads ..... I remembered Shirley Bassey in the car the next day but I couldn't remember who did the remix.

Punks not Dead is a catchy little song but I couldn't put my finger on the artist .... Darren Hanlon is on the to get list.

Good little game that one namtrak ..... just like Spicks and Specs ...... mmmm Myf. Perhaps we should run a seperate thread on cover versions

Go for it, this is the only thread in the whole section & it has been highjacked.

A few cds that stand out .....

Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes
Radiohead - Ok Computer
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Jimi Hendrix - The Ultimate Experience

All albums that have managed to last the test of time .....

On Jimi Hendrix and cover versions, one of the best is Patti Smith and her cover of Are you experienced

http://hypem.com/track/286973 just hit listen and turn it up

Cover versions, My fav most of you prob not like, Faith No More "warpigs" IMHO better than the original.

I missed Darren Hanlon when he came to Albury a few months back -$5 cover charge

But I did see JBT at Grooving the Moo along with Hilltop Hoods, Youth Group, You am I etc. It was the first time I had seen You Am I in and I gotta say that Tim Rodgers is a fantastic piece of work. At one point some clown in the crowd was jumping all over everyone (all ages so a lot of little kids - including mine) and Tim Rodgers stopped the show and started into the bloke "you eff in idiot why not ff off and stop jumping all over the kids you ff dumb prick etc" etc and then he apologised for swearing saying he had kids and knew it was bad karma and then he started into this bloke again - screaming his head off "you fff wit if you really want to get it on this is how we get it on" and then he jumped about four feet into the air and come down playing this big steel guitar like some crazy Hendrix flashback - I nearly wet my pants - thought it was superb!!!!!

And I agree Myf is the drinking mans' muse!!!!

Another thread somewhere else

I know one CD i can't listen too all day long... and that would be my missus when she ........ oh hang on that would be a broken record not a CD .... my bad.

I got the box set given to me in 1986 by my mum for xmas. I was sixteen and have listened to this album for 200 years now.
A nice glass of red, listening to Sandy then Jersey girl still takes me to my happy place.

Pricey I reckon it would feel like 200 years too. hehehe

Cool album though.

G'day,

The Division Bell, Pink Floyd
Radio Kaos, Roger Waters
On an Island, David Gilmour

really anything by Pink Floyd or the above two blokes who are ex-Pink Floyd. It all depends on the mood I'm in to which album Ilisten to, sometimes I love to play "Run Like Hell", Pink Floyd full boar and make the shed shake off it's foundations. Other times if I'm sad maybe "The Final Cut", Pink Floyd.
