Why, why, why do people continually mention Oasis; surely the most non-original band of all time?

I've spent the evening sat in the garden, next to my chiminea, drinking gin and tonic and listening to Tonight's the Night by Neil Young. Oasis? My Arse...

Neil Young is having something of a resurgence in popularity. Was in HMV on Saturday and of the three people in front of me, two were buying After the Goldrush and Harvest.

"Only Love Can Break Your Heart" is one of the greatest songs ever especially the descant refrain !

Quoted from IvorHardon
Gary Moore is one of the most influential artists of all time? Gary Moore wasn't even the most influential member of Thin Lizzy! As a solo artist he is derivative and unimaginative. If you want to hear great new blues give Joe Bonamassa a listen.


Saw Thin Lizzy last year, or the bastardized version that wheels itself around these days as Thin Lizzy, I sacked it off after they opened with a rubbish version of whisky in the jar. At the moment its all about Boxer by the national, Grey Britain by Gallows and Boys and girls in America by the hold steady.

He's my all time musical hero. Aside for the dodgy eary 1980s Geffen years, he's been consistently superb for 40 years.

So many near perfect albums; After the Goldrush, Tonight's the Night, Rust Never Sleeps, Sleeps with Angels, Freedom, Ragged Glory, Weld, Everybody Knows this is Nowhere, On the Beach, Broken Arrow, Harvest, American Stars and Bars etc etc etc

Amazing.

Also so many superb live gigs that I've been to over the years; the next being in Nottingham in 3 weeks time...

Still the only way for real afficionados to buy it There has to be a solid presence. I've still got all my albums. Some of the sleeves are simply works of art.

That's a great song. I think it was also John Peel's favourite songs.
