Vanishing Point
Primal Scream
1st Album in this 1001 listening experience.
Noticing familiar rifts, now knowing where they came from! Seems like a lot of samples from this album used by other artists later.

Exile On Main Street
The Rolling Stones
002.Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
-Felt like I was listening to a Local Rock Group playing the Beer Tent at the Spring Spit-in-your-eye festival.
-The RS music that gets played on the Local Rock Station around here sounds more like it was built for Arena Settings vs this Town Hall Dance sound.
_would buy if it was <$5 LP

-Definitely a definitive album of my youth.
-a SUPER POP album start off!
-'State of the World' is still timely.
-missed how much I missed singing "Miss you Much"!
-pretty sure any time I was in a Pamida department store, at least one song from this album would play overhead...can still smell the potpourri home decor section, apple cinnamon eeww!
-Such a 'Clean' album. Crisp Studio produced layers.
--Remember tuning in a FM Station on a Walkman and hoping you could get the Tuned LED indicator light to pop. Tuned in!

-Welp, in my youth, this would have been played louder than I am now...
_ lot of early Self-Care w/ this type of Music..KORN, MM, Smashing Pumpkins, RatM. Boys angry at the World. Hits different now as a older boy angry at the World. Shit doesnt seem to change, just more of the same.
-Angel with Scabbed Wings; dig the beat!
-Lots of "Anthem" style...what makes an Anthem?
--Wikipedia; the word "anthem" is commonly used to describe any celebratory song or composition for a distinct group, as in national anthems. Further, some songs are artistically styled as anthems, whether or not they are used as such, including Marilyn Manson's "Irresponsible Hate Anthem", Silverchair's "Anthem for the Year 2000", and Toto's "Child's Anthem".

Loves me some Bob, or any Bob really.
_ i remember i detested any sort of reggae during my college years... not sure what finally flipped the switch for me. but happy to enjoy it now..
_i think it was "Three Little Birds" that i finally caught on to the 'Vibe'. As a hyperactive child (undiagnosed ADHD anyone?) that 'Chill Vibe' was a bit foreign to me...

Lost my notes...basically didnt know that Quiet Riot covered 'Cum on Feel the Noize' and that my high school football team played it at every practice. and for that it has a bitter taste in my mouth (1 star), but 3 stars for the influence.

This is my 1st time listening to a full Album of Pixies music (i know, I know, what took me so long?)
I'm a fan of their music that made it on several influential Soundtracks (The Crow?)!
_But a full album of their 'Sound' is a little much at times and sets off my tinnitus in my ear...I'm too old for this Punk Music..

Okay, so THIS is the Stone Roses! I've heard their music over the public radio once in a while, never an album.
Opening Track is a mood-setter, i should read into lyrics..meh
Track 3: WaterFall is super Folksy compared to Track 1?
-The Spotify Commercial break of DJO (Steve from Stranger Things) is so BASIC! FUCK THAT SUPERPRODUCEDSHITSHOW!
_ The Folk Feel on Bye Bye Bad Man...the Lyrics! The 68Riots...Timely.
-Reading the Wiki, 1st album was a collection of music ideas, sounds like it.
-I am the Resurrection...just kept going on, didnt even realize it..
-Album Closer; Fools Gold could almost be a Beastie Boys Song.

Just Typewriters and Shirt Pocket Protected Pen Holders and Mustaches galore space. and a shitty fluorescent lighting, with stained ceiling tiles...just that icky beige.
