About a year ago. Thanks for reading and sharing your comments. The digital download thing sounds like a a great idea for an article. - BakkoBakkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04369698756907726230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7396401124200557524.post-66343411123485989232014-07-05T04:14:57.473-07:002014-07-05T04:14:57.473-07:00Never owned a Sabbath album, although I think I co...Never owned a Sabbath album, although I think I copied a couple cassettes from friends, Cuz I remember listening to it a lot from age 13-16, but after that period, I was content to hear something off their greatest hits once a week. Maybe once a month.<br /><br />Speaking of Ozzy. Were remasters ever released that included Bob Daisley's bass parts? I've read quite a bit about Ozzy having all his bass tracks rerecorded on the latest renasters. I just downloaded them (1.8gb?), took one listen to "I don't know", and deleted it all. Now, added to my to-do list (along with seeking the Dangerous Toys discography lol) is finding anything Bob Daisley wrote or recorded.<br /><br /><br /><br />I downloaded a pretty release Chinese Democracy at least a year before we could buy it, and thought it was terrible. I remember it feeling too produced, as were all GnR albums since Lies. Too clean. Didn't feel sincere.<br /><br />I haven't wished to hear a new KISS tune since Animalize. I have heard some interesting ones since, but I don't get any cravings for them.<br /><br />I have never listened to any of these albums all the way through, but Priest's Turbo. While a masterpiece, my favorite period in Priest's library, what really blew my mind back then was the Priest...Live! concert video, recorded on tour in support of the Turbo album. What stood out was his much more energy each tune had compared to the studio version, and the quality of the recording for it being live. Many overdubs?<br /><br />Van Halen? Last I bought was Balance. Last I really liked was 5150, but I'll check out 3.<br /><br />Flipp toured with Myles Kennedy while he was in Mayfield Four. I've listened to every band he's been in since, but nothing has seemed to fit him as well as Mayfield Four. Talk about produced. His delivery and technical ability is almost so perfect it's unnatural. Too clean. Not possibly sincere. More, well trained? Mayfield Four, a tune called Summer Girl. I swore he sang for about a minute without taking a breath. I thought it was creepy.<br /><br />I'm feeling a bit lumped in with the sheep because I didn't seek to hear most of these albums on my own, but I'm fine with that. If you say they're all really good, I might give them a listen all the way through. I think, for me anyway, there's only so much music I can hold dear. There's only so much I can appreciate, and I have my preferences. Right now, I have a thing for gritty, nasty (and sweet at the same time) guitar tone (70's Ted Nugent). A couple years ago, I remember exploring acts like New Young Pony Club, Trgan and Sara, even LA Roux! !!! Maybe I'm OK with over production, and less auyhenticity the closer it gets to electronic music? No. I never bought any of their albums.<br /><br />I'd like to hear your perspective on downloading media. From the legalities of it, to the loss of audio quality.BabaOriley ; )noreply@blogger.com
