November 16, 200916 yr QUOTE (RibbieRubarb @ Nov 16, 2009 -> 03:19 PM) Pure originals! I'm thrilled they made the list! Soxtalk = Taste! You and me are two of the three Soxtalkers that had Talking Heads on their lists — I wonder who the other bloke with good taste is. Hey Ni. . . For previous list countdowns, didn't you include the names of all teh SWoxTalkers that included a particular entry, and not just the poster who scored it in the highest slot? I thinks that's what you did, and I liked that. At any rate, two of my bands have made the cut so far. yea.

November 16, 200916 yr Soundgarden beats Pearl Jam? Ok, that's just wrong. Maybe I should have voted. Next time don't run these when I'm handing in my thesis!

November 17, 200916 yr Author It was one point. I just realized that I only made a 49 band list. I'm going to have to make a new #50.

I've got nothing against Soundgarden, they'd probably have appeared on my list, they just would be behind PJ. I will say that if Creed or if STP wind up ahead of Pearl Jam, i'm just going to delete these threads.

How typically American.
November 17, 200916 yr Author I like Soundgarden better than Pearl Jam. But I didn't vote for either.

I'm shocked that they were this low in the list. David Byrne is awesome, and Stop Making Sense is arguably the greatest concert film ever. Fantastic album, too Also, Byrne's solo stuff (and non-Talking Heads material) is pretty good as well. I especially like My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, which he made with Brian Eno.

If Creed shows up on this list at all, I will have lost all faith in Soxtalk members. Hell, I don't even know if I would be able to come back to the forums if that happened.
November 17, 200916 yr My Fleetwood Mac vote was probably split 65-35 towards the pre Rumours line up. Looking back over my list, it is weighed heavily towards what oldies I've reconnected with at this stage in my life. For obvious reasons, Rumours fits nicely.
November 17, 200916 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 16, 2009 -> 02:10 PM) Psycho Killer is a great song. Yeah, the Talking Heads rock...definitely would have been on my list had I made one.

I especially like My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, which he made with Brian Eno. I was a little miffed at the Wiki synopsis for completely blowing off Adrian Belew's extended contributions to the ensemble in the Stop Making Sense era as well as his awesome presence on Remain in Light. I know he was just a hired gun, but I loves me some Belew. Come to think of it, In addition to listing Adrian Solo/The Bears in my top 20, I also have him included by association three additional times with FZ, KIng Krimson, and Bowie. I could have included Laurie Anderson for the superfecta.
