What Are You Listening To? - Ruby - 03-10-2016

Jerome Wrote:Sounds like it could be a Roger Waters solo album - even the opening vocal reminds me of Waters. A super find Ruby! Really like that retro guitar sound and the keyboards. Why is the 'A' in a box with square corners while the others have rounded corners? I assume it supposed to mean something????

I’m not entirely sure but to hazard a guess, I’d say that it represents the Makers Mark which would usually be a different shaped stamp to the assay and other marks. They’ve got 18 in there because it’s their 18[SUP]th[/SUP] album and the u makes it 18 carat gold which ties in with the whole El Dorado thingy as well. In numerology, of course, 18 is a 9 which is such a great number and so interesting mathematically. Don’t know if there’s an actual maker’s mark somewhere in the world, of an A in a square box, and who that might be if there is, but there are further patterns at play as well – there’s iron - FE – ok – it’s not Fe, but still – and then there’s the letter ‘R’ which is, serendipitously, the hallmark date letter for the year 2016. UN is no doubt United Nations.

Quite fascinating things, hallmarks!

You melt my brain. I have probably learnt more from your posts than I ever did in all those years in school!

I'm not sure she is from our world

What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 03-10-2016

I think Ruby should run for President....I'd vote for her for sure.

Shed bamboozle those politicians in a heartbeat and solve the problems of the world in her first week in office!!!!

What Are You Listening To? - Jerome - 04-10-2016

I'll get the campaign posters ready. MH, you tell the American media we're cancelling the current election and that we have a new candidate. Problem fixed!

What Are You Listening To? - Ruby - 04-10-2016

^^^Lol!! That’s all very hilarious!! I have quite enough trouble steering my own little planet thanks, which wobbles off course with alarming regularity.

BTW - I think people should stop using that megalomaniacal narcissistic idiot’s name! It’s on the tips of everyone’s tongues - plastered all over every type of media and I believe that gives it (and by default, him) enormous power. I refuse to utter the word at all – ever - even at the turn of a friendly card ….

It’s a one woman protest at this point, but hey – who knows – it might catch on.

CHEAP TRICK "lap of luxury" cd, 1988

career stats:
studio albums................17
singles..........................64

this album..................#16 US...#14 AU...#11 CAN
singles:
"the flame"................#1 US....#1 AU...#1 CAN...#77 UK
"don't be cruel"..........#4 US....#4 AU.................#77 UK
"lets go"..................#32 US..#67 AU
"ghost town"........................#75 AU

the band's tenth studio album....
contains probably what many consider their greatest ballad in "the flame"...
excellent cover on here also of Presley's "don't be cruel" which is, IMO, better than the original...
band are leaning a bit more towards the rock ballad thing on this one, but theres still some fine
rock and roll happening...
not sure what I consider their best album but this one isn't far off it...

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

worst track: ghost town
best track: the flame

PAUL & LINDA McCARTNEY "ram" 2011 boxset:

DISC 3:

first disc was the original remastered album,
the second, the "thrillington" album and this, the third disc in the boxset...
contains five previously unreleased tracks...all crap mind you...
plus the non album single "another day" and a couple of non album "b sides"
which incidently, are the only three things on the disc worth listening to IMO...

I DO NOT LIKE THIS DISC

worst track: hey diddle
best track: another day
