What Did You Buy? - Jerome - 28-01-2012

Rabbit in the Vestibule - Half Past Four. Just started listening to it a few minutes ago - some great playing on this. Not really my cup of tea but the talent is apparent. One thing I do like about it is that it is totaly unpredictable. Some interesting twists and turns going on. A great production. Well done guys! A lot of thought has gone into this. And a lot of work too. This is going to sound crazy but it sounds like a cross between The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Steely Dan??!!?? Both of which I quite like, by the way. As for a 'genre', I cannot slot it into any particular category - and that's a very good sign. Because that means it is a true original - and that can only be a good thing. A great antidote to all the bland boy and girl bands out there. Long May You Run.........money well spent!

Addendum - Track 7 - 'Lullaby' sounds like Yes!!!! This band is FULL of surprises!!! A real Pandora's box of talent.

Addendum 2 - Track 8 - opening sounds like a cross between Vaya Con Dios and Santana. A diverse blend of material indeed! This one might just grow on me. It's quite quirky in places but always inventive and totally unorthodox.

Addendum 3 - sound effects are bloody brilliant. Sounds like the B52's in parts. (track 10)

Taking myself out of the album buying game for a while (Its tough being a poor college student. Sad ) I put most of my "Designated for music" funds towards today's pre-ordering of;

Music Head Wrote:don't have anything by either of these artists
I needed to fix that
not very many tracks considering their output but for $5 I'll take them

[INDENT]Great album, Gryph ! I still have the vinyl copy from "71. I really like the "yodelling" vocals of Thijs van Leer..so different for the time ! And then there's the brilliant guitar of Jan Akkerman ! I wonder what they're doing today ?

One of my favorites...and yes Janis is a beautiful ballad with flute and guitar ! [/INDENT]

Been looking to get CD copy for a while.............It is worth it for the track Janis alone!

I just bought Lana Del Rey's album, Born To Die. I know she's getting a lot of crap for her SNL performance, but I'm liking the album.
