My personal song of the moment:

Stargazer by Rainbow.

Anyone else?

Can I please have some of what ever it is that you've been on the last couple of days?

Didn't you know - Hippy's avatar is an accurate portrait!

...and that's when he's in a fairly sane mood...

Just answer the damn question

OK... anything from the following:

Beethoven
Chopin
Led Zeppelin
BB King
Eric Clapton
Mozart
Shostakovich
Villa-Lobos
Dvorak
Schubert

+ whatever Radio 3 is playing while I'm in the garage (Jazz or classical)

OK, Hippy?

Sounds good to me.

I've got nowt against classical stuff.

Bit of a closet Mozart fan if I'm honest.

Might get hold of some once I have the funds to do so in fact..

Incubus (not the latest album)
Adema
Herbie Hancock
Arturo Sandoval
Jeff Buckley
Chris Cornell (+ sound garden + audioslave)
Counting Crows
Gang Starr
Jurassic 5 (again, not the latest album)

Anyway, you get the picture, pretty much anything.

Kingr

Are you lot building your cars, now you have lots of extra time since you appeared to have retired?

Lemon Jelly - Lost Horizons
The Hives
Frank Sinatra
Black Sabbath
Moby
Rammstein
Stone Roses
Punjabi MC
and occasionally anything (but jazz, R&B, hip hop, house, soul you get the idea)

lots of rolf harris stuff
Donny osmond
Bros
every boy band you can imagine
Jess conrad
That bitch that sounds crap - oh yeah- shakira
popstars the rivals
everything that samantha fox ever did.


Do you recon thats why I have spent so little time in the garage the last 3 months, or is it the cold weather.


"two little boys had two little toys, until the twelth of never, this pullover, im at your feet, forever, whenever, I wanna feel your body"

and all that good stuf.


atb

Steve

nirvana greatest hits

which is funny cos i didnt like them the first time round

but the undertones teenage kicks has gotta be one of the best to build to

Guns 'n' Roses
Iron Maiden
Aerosmith
Led Zepplin
Rammstein
Nirvana
Deep Purple
Black Sabbath
Foo Fighters

Mainly Guns 'n' Roses tho! people look down the driveway in disgust at me covered in oil and grease and singing alone to som quality music!

OK im very sad i know!

James

actually, my last post wasnt true.

I have Connect FM - a local kettering and corby station on that plays 70 - 90s music.

It saves getting cds covered in crap.

What IS true is that im going to a donny osmond concert next month with my wife. She feels embarrased about it as an ex fan - imagine how im lookign forward to it.

What will be interesting is to see if all those early 40's ladies can still scream 'donny' like they did in the 70s tv clips


atb

steve


as far as whats in my car at present,

i have a couple savage garden cds, some linkin park, elton john, prodigy, Eminiem.

[Edited on 24/2/03 by stephen_gusterson]

Auzzie...

That ain't sad, you just listed half my cd collection.

The neighbours can think what they like when my music's blasting out...

hehe try telling my dad that he thinks im very sad! however Appetite for Destruction is the most commonly listened to CD and the neighbours tell me to turn it up when they are out in the garden.

Black sabbath
Iron Maiden
Nirvana
Deep Purple
Metalica
Smashing Pumpkins
AC/DC
Pearl Jam
Led Zepplin
Stone Roses

and much more of the same ilk. Anything from the Rainbow, Purple, Sabbath era is particularly good as that was the time, in my opinion, that rock/metal was at it's pinacle.

When I'm feeling chilled the odd bit of jazz or classical doesn't come amiss either.

I used to think that my musical tastes were a bit sad these days but it seems that I'm not the only one

And finally - when I'm not in the mood for music - Radio 4.

Auzziejim, You obviously go to the wrong school, at my school there was a reasonable sized group of people who liked quality music (admitedly, some bands on that list would have been laughed at a bit, but mostly not).

Stadium rock is pretty cheesy though, and guns and roses really should just let it go (although I seem to remember hearing lately that they'd almost definately never play another gig anyway). And as for Status Quo, well, three chord gets boring after about 10 minutes let alone 20 (or more?) years.

Black Sabbath is the mutts, I've usually got at least one CD in my car changer, if not two.

Kingr



[Edited on 25/2/03 by kingr]

I creased up when I read that Status Quo's lead guitarist had RSI - he said that playing 3 chords for all these years had taken its toll!

At least he had the balls to own up...

I'd say RSI is a comparatively small price to pay for the money they must have in the bank.

I think they're still specifically banned from being played on radio 1.

Wadders - I think you've touched on the great north/south radio 1 divide. My theory (backed up by most people I have spoken to about it) is that Southerners like Chris Moyles and dislike Mark and Lard and Northerners like Mark and Lard and disklike Chris Moyles. I guess it's also partly true with Sara Cox and Jo Whiley, but don't most people find Sara Cox iritating anyway?

Kingr

But I thought every one in the whole world thought that Chris Moyles was a twat (with the possible exception of Chris Moyles).

Phil.

ooooyyyyeeeee

What about Sting and or the Police

Hang on - let me have a look in my glove compartment...

The Strokes
Doves
Van Morrison
Ben Folds Five
Dexy's Midnight Runners
more Ben Folds Five
Goldfrapp
Portishead
Otis Redding
Elmore James
even more Ben Folds Five
Django Reinhardt

Try as I might I can't see any common theme running through these.

James my sister is obsessed with Marilyn Manson and i cant stand him/her!!! please dont swear like that"

sounds like there is a group of REAL music fans forming here!

I am now well into counting crows but hav only got their stuff on my computer so now CD's to listen to in the garage!

James

oh as for the name HAHAHAHA its mine now!!! HAHAHAHAHAAAAA (evil film style laugh)

[Edited on 26/2/03 by auzziejim]

I'm with James (the real one) on Marilyn Manson.

I like it.

Some of it anyway...

I've been keeping quiet on this thread up until now, as I like so much stuff, I couldn't be ar$ed listing it all. I like everything mentioned so far, but band of the moment has to be Queens of the Stone Age. Judging by peoples tastes, I'm surprised I haven't seen System Of A Down. Top stuff.
I had to arc up when I read David jenkins likes Horslips! I don't know anyone else who's even heard of them. Horslips album "The Tain".....brilliant.

Counting Crows are great, but their first album (August and everything after) was the best. I'm not desperately keen on recovering the satelite or this desert life. Hard candy is pretty good, I was listening to it this morning in my car.

Another couple of bands that I don't recall coming up is Deftones and Tool.

Kingr

Rorty i agree with Queens of the stoneage and SOAD! they both rule!

Marilyn's a complete tit, you're not wrong.

As for System Of A Down I saw them back in 1999 when they were one of the support acts for Black Sabbath and it has to be said they were talentless piles of crap.

I much prefered the first of the 3 support acts... All girl Swedish band. Highlight of that set? The lead guitarist walking backwards and falling over some stage equipment. Genius.

Mind you the bass player was nice..... (Of the Swedish band, not Geezer Butler...)

(it needed 3 other bands because they needed to acclimatise your ears for Sabbath as well as possible before they came on and deafened you with fantasticness....)

Hotknives
Special Beat
International Beat
Selecter and
Bad Manners

yours, Pete.

Nope, I saw Sabbath at the last concert of their last solo tour in their home town of Birmingham, in the NEC to be specific.

Absolutely fantastic night.

Any of you guys like the Roman Hooligans or klik clic klik?

Cheers

Chris

Well I could list what i listen to, but you old rockers wont have heard of most of it.

Having said that, when I need to grind harder, cut faster and hammer more violently there's nothing like a bit of honest German-heavy-electro-metal, so Rammstein are never too far away from the garage stereo. or:

Nirvana
Rage Against The Machine
Kyuss
Audioslave
Prodigy
Boom Boom Satellites...

For normal happy tinkering:

Radiohead
Death in Vegas
Chemical Brothers
Lamb
Archive
Ladytron
Feelix Da Housecat
REM
Beta Band
Doves...i could go on forever so i'll stop...

And when I'm in contemplative mood trying to engineer around the latest 'how the hell will that fit' problem (or I've just fu**ed something up/injured myself and need soothing)...

Beth Gibbons
Mazzy Star
Goldfrapp
Portishead
Air
Dot Allison...

OK that'll do. Oh and if I'm in the garage late enough - John Peel on Radio 1. All very nice.

Liam

Pearl Jam
Radiohead
Dead Kennedys
Anthrax

Do most suspension testers have red faces???

Yes they Rock as well. This is impressive most peole are rockers here

I listen to:-

The whine of the angle grinder.

The clunk of the big hammer.

The wife complaining.

The thud of the neighbours throwing rotten fruit at the garage.

My screams of agony

The sirens of the emergency services.
(if you listen carfully you can tell the difference between the fire engine and the ambulance)

Couldn't resist getting my oar in here.

John Lennon

Tom Waits
Robert Johnson

Sugar
Led Zeppelin
Eric Clapton
OCS

Paul Weller
BB KIng
Green Day

In no particular order.

Chuck Berry

Popa Chubby
The Clash
BB King - but only live at the regal
The fabulous thunderbirds
Jimi Hendrix
SRV
T- Bone walker
Early fleetwood mac

Anything car related especially if its funny - god I need a laugh some days. - wiring days especially.

And when the CD's finish - radio 2 until I can extract myself to put another on.

So, did anybody go to Reading then?

Seems there are a few Metallica fans here- at Reading they rocked long and hard!
Two hours of fantastic music, fireworks and flashbangs!
Only disappointment being they didn't play The Unforgiven (probably my favourite Metallica track).

Guess PHULL would have liked System of a Down who played just before too.

Cheers,

James

Oh, and the absolutely stunning girl in the black bikini and hat who got her fantastic breasts out was a big high-point too!

why, you dirty bugger...



Ned.

Anything with a heavy bass and HEAVY in a metalic way. Just remember if it ain't LOUD it ain't ROCKING!!!!

p.s. Hippy i fully sympathise about OZZY, blew out the Wembly gig 'n all didn't he, means i gotta work on Thursday now

I thought I had the only copy of "The Tain" by "Horslips", what a spooky path we all lead through life from "Horslip" to "LOCOSTS".


What about :- Rory Gallagher ,The Groundhogs, Wishbone Ash, The Sensational Alex Harvey Band and OZRIC TENTACLES............................................I believe they've now found a cure for the last one!!

That is pretty shocking how much good taste is out there... couldnt agree more with nearly all of you, except the junglist. Sorry, i hate jungle and D&B. really hate, maybe ok in a club, but not on a sunday afternoon. my prat of a neighbour is mad for it and got a bass tube, 2 decks and a computer to shimmy it all up with....

BAD NEWS.


anyone heard of Yngwie Malmsteen? Hes done some pretty cool tunes if you like the style, which he calls 'neo-classical rock'. Good stuff...!

Valley of Kings..... Pyramid Of Cheops.....

I know him...

's funny how thru all the years, though the style has changed loads, there are mint tunes on every album.

Black star, i am a viking, you dont remember, how many miles to babylon, tommorows gone, i'm my own enemy.

I downloaded every single tune he ever released, but unfortunately dont have any speakers or CDRs! That is actually beginning to bug me!

Wasn't it kind of pointless downloading them then...?

one day when i'm rich, i will get a pair of speakers. i will! Then it wont be in vain...

Actually, i need a new mouse as well, and a key board. Theres a key missing, but i dont know what it was and so i suppose a mouse alone will do....

why the hell am i here at this time?

Keyboards are under a fiver, mice are £3, cheap speakers under a tenner, CDR's about 40p each in cases or about 2p each in a cakebox(£21 a 100), don't torture yourself spend some money and listen to your music

yours, Pete.

[Edited on 30/8/03 by Peteff]

What you all need is a TV in the workshop............there's this great reality TV show set in a playgroup where they all sing and dance for a bit then play with this dog called Doodles, then Max (one of the adult helpers) tells tells them a story or goes off to see how candles are made or something....... top stuff when you're bonding pannels to the chassis/ have been welding for a while man........

I'm also now an expert on 'Diagnosis Murder'/ 'Neighbours'/ 'Charlies Angels' etc but think it's about time 'The Dukes of Hazzard' was repeated on daytime TV

Current in-car listening......

Ian Dury
The Darkness
Catatonia
Van Halen
Fun Lovin' Criminals
Happy Mondays
Wolfsbane

Cheers

PS. re TV - when everything has just gone pearshaped 'Cavegirl' makes you feel a whole lot lot better.........

is that the tweenies you're on about?! have u ever watched a cartoon called spongebob squarepants?

[Edited on 31/8/03 by JoelP]

I make my little boy watch it with me (can justify watching it as some "quality family time" - similiar to Simpsons or Tekeshi's castle!)

Hi if you are looking for a set of speaker get your self to richer sounds buy an amp and a set of speakers it will blow away any pc speaker I have seen and cost the same as well (30 to 40 for a set up that will destroy most pc speaker systems that will cost you lots more). I recently did this my self and you will be amassed by the difference.

Iggy and the Stooges
MC5

But when building I like to listen to Radio 5 Live (sports and news) for some reason.

if we are going back in time

Incubus - a crow to the left of the murder
White Stripes - Seven Nation Army
Nickelback- Silver Side Up


gets louder and heavier as things get stressful

With me it's permanently loud and heavy...

Latest DVD, Toto live from Amsterdam, simpley excelent.

my latest DVD, visions of the beast by you-know-who. F*$%*&^ awesome!

"the shirehorses...!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Whatever the kids leave in the CD player, or www.ckua.com

How about 'Insane Clown Posse' most amusing lyrics!!

Pete, good call on Carter USM!!

Ben

Has any1 mentioned Star Trekkin' by the firm cus that is class

Quaity.

Unlike my typing ability

Anyone go to Download?

Fully intended to go myself (just to see Metallica really- they fokkin ruled at Reading) but then somehow it came and went without me getting tickets!

Was it any good?

Cheers,

James

my son went, Lars is ill so Joey Jordison (Slipknot), Dave Lombardo(Slayer), Flemming(Lars' drum tech) took the seat drumming. They had to shorten their set to about 11 songs because everything was running late, they still played well though.

Metallica- truly the greatest!

There was even a 30minute programme on BBC World Service at 1.30am about them Monday night.
Candid interviews with the whole band loads of tunes etc. etc. not bad for the World Service!

James

Metallica \m/ \m/

Recently I have been listening to Killswitch Engage, Vast and Motley Crue (oh yes )
