I think you’d like this album from last year. @Elric @RVI

I would say every song from Forever Changes packs more ideas and obscure feelings into each song than most albums from any era manage to
I’m just not seeing anything particularly special about it in that way. It’s all very impressive and I love plenty of the tracks on it, but it isn’t topping the best work from around then. It’s still probably top 20 or 30 of the decade for me.
i think part of it is just a lot of subtleties that end up being godly, like the interplay of the acoustic guitars and the little inflections in his vocal delivery at certain points. use of the horns alongside strings but in such a tasteful way with restraint
feels very 1967 and Los Angeles in the most charming ways but i still havent felt any other music express what it expresses
Yeah I know what you mean. There’s this part on Maybe The People Would Be… that pulls this exact thing off perfectly and it’s heavenly, but also very subtle as you say.
yeah Still Goin Down is a heater. infectious af, yeah the chorus lyrics are ridiculous but that part is so good. he has a lot of parts where the catchy rhythm plus vocal inflection just helps to make the melody ridiculously catchy. the pseudo rapping on the title track
in that vein I also really love Beer Don't. its just such an outrageous banger. some of those 2nd half songs that seemed slight at first snuck up on me like Me on Whiskey, Silverado for Sale, Rednecks Red Letters Red Dirt. also think Quittin Time is an amazing closer
i dont dislike it but i think Country A$$ S*** is the weakest and its just a bit much lol
album ties American Heartbreak for my most played of the past 5 years
Yeah same here with Country Ass S*** lmao. It's too far for me, im good 
Red Letter Red Dirt is good too. Maybe the others will grow on me more too.
I doubt i can play it as much as i have american heartbreak at this point lmao but i can try
Shanes Fox News Dad bit was the best stand-up i had seen in years
You saw the whole special?
You saw the whole special?
Yeap. Watched it again last night for the hell of it. Very good but I think the first special was more nuanced with its infinitesimal, unpredictable tonal shifts.
any cool concerts upcoming for anyone? I’m seeing Jeff Rosenstock in March and considering getting tickets to Ride and camera obscura in may
This is my concert calendar so far this year:
2/9 Jane Remover & quannnic
4/19 Glass Beach
4/21 - Al Stewart
5/1 - PinkPantheress
5/2 - Julia Holter
5/18 - Just Like Heaven Fest
There are a bunch of other shows I am interested in but don't have tickets for yet (Madonna, Olivia Rodrigo w/ The Breeders, Ethel Cain, Mitski). I'll probably wait until the last minute to decide on those.

We're considering that jam band music festival in Kentucky lol

Definitely a consensus opinion. Seeing him do the second special material live definitely changes the perception of it though. His timing and facial expressions made the atmosphere more surreal.

Wats it called
@Galaxy @Aruji i can’t stop listening to KING. I can’t believe Ye still has this much left in the tank after 20 years

Wats it called
Bourbon and Beyond. I thought you reacted when somebody posted the line up in here last week
Zach, Neil, MMJ, DMB, War On D****, Dino Jr, Fleet Foxes, fking Beach Boys
also looks like partly a southern food festival as well which is
huge selling point

Yeah I had some friends that went and didnt invite me and I'm still mad. I'm not really known as a big standup fan I guess but I was collecting Pryor dvds when they were in elementary school
planning on Madonna, Cory Wong, Bruce Springsteen, Psychedelic P*** Crumpets, King Gizzard (x2) for this year at least

oh yeah you should def. go. calling it a jam band festival got me mixed up for a sec, was expecting one of those with just bands like string cheese incident or moe or goose and was surprised youd be interested
How much were Springsteen tickets?
somewhere around 150 iirc. tickets not that great though, didnt want to pay 300 for the sections id usually opt for
@Galaxy @Aruji i can’t stop listening to KING. I can’t believe Ye still has this much left in the tank after 20 years
I think King is my least favorite on the album

Been wanting to do a music nerd roadtrip through Tennessee anyway and it's right there
Any of you ever heard of the 70’s singer/songwriter Robert Lester Folsom?
Cause wow this hits all my sensibilities. @Elric

This whole album is wonderful. It’s like if Soft Bulletin era Wayne Michael Coyne made a warm psychedelic 70’s soft rock record.
