Jonestown recs
 
I downloaded Satanic Majesty's Second Request last night and I like what I hear!

I'm considering plunking down some hard-earned cash on real BMJ product today, i.e., records. What do you recommend?

cryptowonderdruginvogue 12.13.2006 10:13 AM

Spacegirl

gmku 12.13.2006 10:15 AM

That's an album?

cryptowonderdruginvogue 12.13.2006 10:17 AM

yes

its the one ive been listening to the most

Savage Clone 12.13.2006 10:19 AM

Spacegirl and Other Favorites is great, but very demo-ish, and has kind of more "raw" versions of some songs that are on other albums. I still like it though. Listened to it yesterday.
My favorites are Give It Back, Take It From The Man and Their Satanic Majesty's Second Request. Methedrone is great too, but way more "shoegazery" and less jangly/super 60s-ish.

I saw Take It and maybe Give It at the store the other day. Brand new copies, a little pricey, but they look nice. How about And This is Our Music. That's there, too.

why dont you invest on some ENO records instead?

Opera is better seen live than listened to at home.

gmku 12.13.2006 10:37 AM

Actually it's because she's got a thing for BMJ right now and not Eno. You know how you get a thing about something and it won't let you go?

gmku 12.13.2006 10:50 AM

So, any BMJ fans know about And This is Our Music?

Come on, guys, you gotta help me out here (all a-trembly like Kramer).

you know you can download the whole album off their website?

gmku 12.13.2006 10:54 AM

I know. I went to the site last night and successfully downloaded Satanic Majesty's... . But my CD player is pre-1996 and doesn't always play CD-Rs. I've been playing my SMSR CD-R download on my car stereo, but the home system doesn't take it. Real pain. Listen, if you don't know, just say so, and don't try to mess me up with your jive techy talk about 30-second samples and stuff, okay?

You haven't got the hang of this forum yet, have you? We usually try to be friendly towards one another. We ask one another questions, seek opinions, stuff like that.

Kramer's getting all combobulated and pointing fingers all over the place. He was addressing Sway on that point. Sorry.

Seriously, swayback, the 'tude, man. Entirely wrong vibe for this forum, man. We're a bit friendlier and more laidback than what you're used to, I think. Go away, or play nice.

Thank you for your advice. I hope you won't be too upset if I don't take it.

sonicl 12.13.2006 11:03 AM

Once again you fail to understand. We are all arseholes, and we have no problem with that.

As the man said, please go away.

gmku 12.13.2006 11:03 AM

Swa(y), congrats, if you're after negative reps, you got my vote. I don't like giving it out, but your behavior sucks, man. These are my friends!
