The Pretenders - Brass In Pocket
(Aug 04, 2005 - 21:06)
my 8 rating may be skewed by remembering my sophomore '81 high school homecoming when a senior cheerleader asked me to dance - looking back, I wonder if it was on a bet..or just pity

either way…giving this an 8

Blue Oyster Cult - Burnin For You
(Dec 17, 2003 - 08:38)
now I like a lot of music and being an 80s fellow I should be even more lenient....but this has always been finger nails on the chalkboard for me
Buena Vista Social Club - Chan Chan
(Dec 17, 2003 - 08:30)
Great memories w/ this song and the whole BVSC movie, cd etc.

Friends at the local art theater seeing the movie for the first time, Summer nights in Chico listening to the cd, live show a year later on campus - all of it comes back....
Beck - Beautiful Way
(Dec 16, 2003 - 15:45)

Rowboat
The Spirit Moves Me
lord only knows

Supertramp - Take The Long Way Home
(Dec 16, 2003 - 11:01)
the memory of this song playing over my struggles with high school chemistry are forever burned into my mind - oddly enough it is pleasant to hear it now....
Robbie Robertson - Showdown At Big Sky
(Nov 20, 2003 - 16:31)
can't objectively rate....great 80s memories though

now, play some charlie sexton...
Jon Langford - Butter Song
(Nov 07, 2003 - 17:32)
I just heard him elsewhere and thought that he sounded RPish. So I did a search - and here he is. Funny thing he was just played yesterday. The cut I heard was 'death of country music'.

Have to check this out.


Dave Matthews - Stay Or Leave

John Hiatt - My Baby Blue
(Oct 22, 2003 - 09:39)
headache music
Gillian Welch - Tear My Stillhouse Down
(Oct 22, 2003 - 08:55)
See - this type of mix makes RP great. More surprises like this great stuff.
Neko Case - Deep Red Bells
(Oct 13, 2003 - 14:54)
Never heard of this - dig it!

Thanks RP.


Jimmy Page & Robert Plant - Most High
(Oct 08, 2003 - 16:48)
Led Zep is in my top 5 bands - this song is in my bottom 100....stop the madness.
Dolly Parton - Shine
(Oct 03, 2003 - 12:01)
I like bluegrass / roots.

I like this song.

I like Dolly (to a degree).

This combo --- yerch! (or as the rating says "Sucko Barfo")
Sigur Rós - Svefn g-englar (original mix)
(Sep 11, 2003 - 15:48)
Yes - love it.

More of this mixed in (if you do a search and replace of Dave Mathews w/ this stuff I wouldn't cry a bit ;-)
Sonny Landreth - Soldier of Fortune
(Aug 20, 2003 - 09:06)
Maybe it's my morning mood - but I vote this goes into the shredder

The Call - I Still Believe
(Jul 24, 2003 - 11:10)
Proof that a song's tie to specific events and an era strongly affects your evaluation....this is best a 5 but I want to give it a 9! (along with David and David's Boomtown Charlie Sexton's Beat's So Lonely, etc.)
Moloko - Familiar Feelings
(Jul 22, 2003 - 15:06)
Please stop
Dave Matthews Band - Tripping Billies
(Jul 21, 2003 - 11:11)
trying to outlast this song and not turn off RP....like a dentist's drill.
Jellyfish - Eleanor Rigby
(Jul 15, 2003 - 15:15)
Spilt Milk has some better cuts - fun bouncy music
Jimmy Page & Robert Plant - The Battle of Evermore
(Jun 27, 2003 - 14:20)
Original version *much* better --- unlike good red wine, this didn't age well. The one on LZ 4 (zoso) is a 9.5, this is about a 4....so I averaged them.
Barenaked Ladies - What A Good Boy (Live)
(Jun 25, 2003 - 10:59)
Just gave this a 1 - sludge-drivel
Peter Gabriel - Burn You Up Burn You Down
(Jun 19, 2003 - 11:42)
Can't explain it but this is like a drill eating into my consciousness....please never again.
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
(Jun 16, 2003 - 16:15)
Great to have a REAL mix of music - never stop being surprised by the original playlist.
