Ween - Stay Forever
(Jan 24, 2008 - 15:59) | I'm so happy to see all the good comments about Ween here..I was afraid I would click on the song and see a bunch of Negative remarks..Ween is God ( Or God, Ween, Satan) this is the weakest album in my opinion...but so nice to hear Ween here..I only hear the "serious" stuff played on RP..and I am aware alot(if not most) of Weens material would not work here...

Beach Boys - Good Vibrations
(Jan 21, 2008 - 00:14) | Pet Sounds is almost always listed as most influential album by almost every band I like...Why?...Because it is genius...it saddens me to hear the DJ just say he was "Never a fan" of the Beach Boys..hard to believe considering all the great stuff I hear him play(Like Porcupine Tree).

Joseph Arthur - Can't Exist
(Jan 13, 2008 - 13:56) | This guy is Genius..when I saw him he was alone...placed a huge canvas behind him which he painted on the entire show while playing..he would smack the guitar and loop that for drums..then loop his voice doing the backing vocals...he could just walk back and paint while the loops played..awesome..when he was done he had painted an incredible, huge painting. Super nice guy...

As for the song.. apart from the intricate finger picking, there is a simplistic quality to it which I find quite beautiful. All in all, an amazing piece of music! Leo Kottke would so kick his ass...good song though...

Flaming Lips - Do You Realize??
(Jan 10, 2008 - 18:56) | The Flaming Lips like Radiohead rises above the title "band" or "group" and claims the prize of absolute fuckin genius... I have seen hundreds of live shows in my long life..and the Flaming Lips at Bonnaroo last year was the best...

It's Okkervil River and they are from your town Austin Texas..The lead singer writes for the Austin Chronicle and the name comes from a story by Tatyana Tolstaya, and it's a real river outside of St. Petersburg. I have met these guys several times...and they are fuckin genius....
