Not much Aussie stuff in there Jaster. I reckon Israel's Son by the 'Chair would fit right in to that playlist.
You might be right Coutry but grunge was about the Seattle sound....I actually saw the chair live at "Van Gough's Earlobe" in Brisbane before they were famous It was after the Livid Festival and I was quite inebriated after seeing one of my idols (Frank Black) live
RIP 1974-2006
Cool. Just an observation though... No Rain by The Blind Melons does not exactly match my definition of grunge.Originally Posted by jaster
Yeah true, but have you heard the next album before Shannon Hoon died? Such a shame as he had some talent!!!
RIP 1974-2006
Apart from Sigur Ros which I have been listening to lately - most of the stuff I listen to are Brisbane bands - last 4 cd's have been by:
Screamfeeder,
Gazoonga Attack,
The Whats,
Giants of Science,
damoocow
Nice choice moocow...I am friends with Kellie from Screamfeeders father...they are a great band Watched them live at the nite club that is where Sizzler is now in the City once...what a night that was
RIP 1974-2006
These guys rock HARD! They supported Grinspoon up here a few years ago, and had a good go at outdoing the 'Spoon.Originally Posted by damoocow
If we are talking a rocking contest here - Giants of Science would beat all comers except Motorhead [unfortunately Grinspoon have gone all girly since covering INXS] - I saw the Giants support the legendary Birdman quite a few years ago and my ears are still hurting!

Gorillaz new album (Demon Days) has been getting lots of airplay at my place lately. Hard to describe what I like about it, but I can't get enough of it.
Also: Jamiroquai - Dynamite
Martin Solveig - Hedonist
Ash Grunwald - Live At The Corner
Santana - All That I Am
Fort Minor - The Rising Tied...good stuff
For me it's live music that does it best. And it's a mix. In order of importance!! (indicates drummer)
Dave Matthews Band - the Central Park Concert (carter beauford)
Paul McCartney - Back in the U.S. (Abe Laboriel Jr)
The Who - Live at the Royal Albert Hall (Zak Starkey)
The following have no particular order.
Pat Benetar - Live in New Haven (Myron Grombacher)
Jimi Hendrix Live at the Isle of Wright - Blue Wild Angel (Mitch Mitchell)
Rolling Stones - Bridges to Babylon (Charlie Watts)
James Morrison - Scream Machine Live (David Jones)
Diana Krall - Live in Paris (Jeff Hamilton)
Can't find my Led Zepplin Live or Blue Note Allstars Live; but I think I know where they are.
The drummer often dictates what I listen to. But it is all music that is full on live and has a lot of motion. None of this 'we play it like the album' crap.

oh and got the back collection of roxy music and jesus and mary chain...yeah
Macca - me thinks you and I need to get together for a long hard drinking session and music listening sess. Some gems I picked out of your list...
Pixies - I have seen Frank Black live (livid 1995) and he is a legend. This Monkey has gone to Heaven is still a fav of mine, here comes your man...etc etc
XTC - Sense working overtime of course, but my favorite is "dear God"...what a poignant song!!!
Jesus and Mary Chain - I totally flogged these guys during my senior years...the Reid bothers have a lot to answer for to where I am today. Too many to choose from...probably Sidewalking, Taste of Cindy but my altime fav is probably "everything is alright when your down"
Speaking of Beck, have you heard his song from the movie "Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind"??? It is a cover of the 1980 song by The Korgi's - Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometimes. If you haven't heard it...get it..OMFG it is a sweet song.
RIP 1974-2006
I just saw that Bryan Ferry's 'The High Road' concert is on dvd. Got it on vid but might have to get the dvd. It's really roxy music without the original drummer (Andy Newmark from Sly and the Family Stone). Love the version of Neil Young's 'Like a Hurricane'.
I've got no idea what Macca and Jaster are talking about.
I have a copy (well a friend does at the moment) of Neil Young "WELD" I think I need to led it to you goughster...maybe bring it on Sunday?Originally Posted by goughy

The CD that is getting the most play from me at the moment is Jamiroquai's Dynamite.

Jamiroquai always reminds me of Napolean Dynamite
