    Listening to an old CD from early 2000's. Was tossing up between this song, or "Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed"

    never did get into Iggy’s music, even the Stooges somehow missed my wheelhouse back in first consciousness days but that said, haha look at all the grandads in this thread, I’m older than many/most here but still am in 100% in favour of ALL manner of rock and roll depravity. Gotta have that deranged shit (hell they probably thought Elvis was deranged back in the day) to prune out the staid & static societal more’s and usher in The New Motherfucking Age

    I don't object to 'shocking' it's the talentless bit that fucks me off.

    Listen to the song Iggy did with the chick from B52s. She has a belter of a voice ( I always liked them as a band ) and the talent disparity in that duo is vast.

    At the very best he sounds like someones drunk uncle who can just hold a tune and won't let anyone else have a turn at karaoke.

    EDIT: come to think of it the bloke in B52s couldn't sing for shit either. That band was all about the harmonies those girls could smash out which they did magnificently at times.

    Not going to link to a video but am currently listening to U2s Joshua Tree after contemplating going to one of the 30th anniversary shows touring the album.
    Despite Bono being a bit of a Pocockwomble this album really does still stand up. A heap of quality and worth the end to end listen.

    The 1970s was really the best decade for music IMO.

    Other huge albums from 1977 include Rumours, News of the World, Animals, Cheap Trick, Let There Be Rock, I Robot, The Stranger, Aja, Bat Out Of Hell to name a few.

    Naaa. Give me 5-10 years either way for truly great eras of music. That list is way too 'punk'.....and reggae. I do love Ian Dury and Talking Heads though.

    Of course there was also the obvious release of the Star Wars soundtrack.

    Can I just say I love Spotify. It's like Netflix for music.

    MN5 may be a piston wristed gibbon who massively over rates the Chilli Peppers but really BSSM is a fucking brilliant 90s alt rock album.

    I've only actually just installed Spotify this week ....

    It's awesome, but weirdly, it doesn't have Biscuits EP by Living Colour.

    @Nepia Are you going to see Living Colour when they tour Aust in May?

    I saw them at Soundwave in Sydney a few years back in a shorter set so I'm looking forward to their gig in Auckland.

    Yep, definitely, I missed seeing them in 1993 in Wellington because I was on a rugby tour in Sydney.

    I found Them Crooked Vultures in Sanity today - only remembered to buy it because the kids were looking in the store next door. Surprisingly, there it was.

    Girl behind the counter asked if I wanted to sign up to their loyalty scheme.

    "This is the first physical album I have bought in years. And only because its not on Google Play"

    She seemed disappointed, which was a shame because she was quite fit.

    Was looking for free music for some YouTube clips, and came across a bunch of rock stuff by a guy called Ethan Meixsell.

    Solid and awesome shredding. Most of his shit is available for free via YouTube, but give the guy a credit if you ever use it somewhere.

    So who went to any of the GNR concerts in Auckland or Sydney? Were they any good? Reviews seem to suggest good, but Axl can't sing.
