An Ecclectic Mix, Can you name the band?

Post by atomicdad »

So I'm bored here today, waiting for some computer runs to finish up so I decided to update my Ipod with a few changes. Like I said i'm bored so I typed up a list of the album/cd names, who can name the band/bands. Many are quite obvious, how about some of the few obscure ones. It is only a 4 gb Nano so this is all I could get on it.

Still bored, so lets see what was picked out, plus the self titled.

1979-83 (Disc 1)
Ace Bob Weir, I'll give this to Bsmack since I grabbed this from his yousendit from a few weeks back
All Shook Down Replacements
Animals duh
Anthology Screaming Trees
Avalon
Ball_hog Or Tugboat? Watt
Best Of (yea, like that is not too vague)
Body of Song
Bossanova
Brushfire Fairytales
Car Wheels On A Gravel Road
Catching Tales
Combat Rock Do you really need to ask
Countrysides Cracker
Cracker self titled
Dark Side Of The Moon duh
Deep
Disintegration
Don't Tell A Soul Replacements
Doolittle
Essence
Flip Your Wig Husker Du
Gas Food Lodging Green on Red
Gentleman's Blues Cracker
Home
In Between Dreams
Kerosene Hat Cracker
Last Splash
London Calling again, do you need to ask
Love and Rockets self
Metal Circus Husker Du
Move It On Over
New Day Rising Husker Du
No Free Lunch Green on Red, has a great 13+ minute version of Smokestack Lightening
"Hey girl, whats your name
I've got enough semen to last all day"

On & On
Rockin' At Ground Zero The Gears
Sailing to Philadelphia
Sandinista enough already
Skin

Staring At The Sea
Swing the Heartache

a lotta love for Minny's "Do You Remember" and such.

Gas Food Lodging: Green on Red

Kerosene Hat: you oughtta check out the LP's Medicine Show and Days of Wine and Roses...from an earlier but related venture.

Anthology, like Best of...: that's gonna be a tough one, IMHO. :D

Floyd and Clash fan, much?

The self-titled ones probably aren't stumping anyone, either.

I just googled Rockin At Ground Zero. Never heard of Gear. When I saw it, I thought you typo'ed, and meant Party At Ground Zero...I could have told you who that was.


Dumb game, since I don't know a lot of them.

Wrong band, there are a couple of others on the list by the same band that put out Kerosene Hat. Back in the day I had The Dream Syndicate's Medicine Show on vinyl. Good album, I wouldn't mind tracking down a CD.


Anthology, like Best of...: that's gonna be a tough one, IMHO.
Hint, SST Label.



Shit Dins, I thought you knew everthing. The Gears, punk-rockabilly from early 80's punk scene in LA.

The Trinity Sessions has logged some serious hours in my tape deck. If the world was fair, The Cowboy Junkies would be outselling Jay-Z 50 to 1.

Yes on the Screaming Trees

BS, the Cowboy Junkies are definately underrated, it's a nice cd if you just want to chill.

OK, how bout I throw out a few artists out and pick out the title?

Bauhaus
Lucinda Williams
Jamie Cullum
Mike Watt

Which titles are from a pole smoker and a clam diver?

you are right, the Steve Wynn (former Dream Syndicate) record was "Kerosene Man" not "Hat". I'm not much of a Cracker fan but Camper Van has some moments.

i was a big fan of teh Screaming Trees Buzz Factory on SST--purple vinyl (oh yeah!). had invisible lantern too.

was kind of disappointed with the Chris Cornell produced Uncle Amnesia or whatever it was called.

Crimson'll tell ya. When Mike toured behind this album he played mostly Double Niuckels songs. Big fan. I know more (the HD and replacements and ex-CVB ones) but wasn't spoiling the fun. Yes I know that sounds like I don't knows BUT I DO!!!

Yes, I admit it, I am stuck in the 80's and 90's, but there are a couple on that list that came out in the last couple of years, one even came out this year.
