My friend, I am not what I seem. Seeming is but a garment I wear—a care-woven garment that protects me from thy questionings and thee from my negligence.I would not have thee believe in what I say nor trust in what I do—for my words are naught but thy own thoughts in sound and my deeds thy own hopes in action.
Khalil Gibran
Oh how timely this thread.

MICK Jagger and Keith Richards embraced the rock'n'roll lifestyle with gusto in the late 1960s, which may explain why they forgot about Plundered My Soul.
The song is one of 10 never-heard-before tracks the pair unearthed when they were listening to the original master tapes of the Exile On Main Street recording sessions.
Jagger and Richards were preparing the fragile tapes for the reissue of Exile, their seminal 1972 double album, and had initially thought they had used all the songs amassed during four years of studio sessions. [Snip]
The single is actually out and I love it. Here:

Of course I'm pissed I have rebuy a album I already own to get the new songs.

Warren Zevon's Excitable Boy
Pixies are great. Strokes were very good. Impossible task I reckon, but off the top of my head I'd have to throw in
a) Transformer by Lou Reid (like Ovid's Metamorphosis but cooler of course)
b) Siamese Dream by Smashing Pumpkins (a real album; rather than a collection of songs).
what did you think of My Ride's Here??Originally Posted by Zach J.
I'm thinking of getting it - but it is $19 on Amazon, so I am on the fence a bit
Get it. Excitable Boy is my favorite, but My Ride's Here is a terrific, terrific album. There are some great songs: "Lord Byron's Luggage", "Genius", "I Have to Leave" and of course "My Ride's Here". Not to mention "The Hockey Song"!
cool - thanks
heard the song with the line "keep me in your heart for a while" the other day and thought, "Why don't I own this album?"
Soundtrack To Your Escape - In Flames
I am swimming through the ashes of the bridges I have burned.
I don't normally listen to whole albums, because usually I only like about 25% of the songs and the rest I find terrible. The only awesome exception is Green Day:
I love dookie, American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown. Dookie has the best individual songs, but also some that aren't that great. American idiot has only songs I love, but it was kinda killed by overplaying. Only now I can slowly get back to it and appreciate it again. 21st century breakdown is longest, and I love all but two songs of it.
I guess if the cover art counts too, then dookie wins, followed by the others, tied.
My top 5(/6):
Blonde on Blonde by Bob Dylan
Exile on Main Street by the Rolling Stones
London Calling by the Clash
The Velvet Underground & Nico by the Velvet Underground (and Nico)
Tie between Electric Ladyland by the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Excitable Boy by Warren Zevon
