| RipperP (Greater New York Metro) | Posted: Apr 08, 2013 - 13:24 Where are those guys knocking RP for not playing Mould (okay, specifically Husker Du)? Though I admit that I would love to hear some HD too...as well spoonful of Sugar. Definitely a favorite Uncle to Grohl and the Foos. |

| aspicer (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Nov 20, 2011 - 16:26 His first solo album is awesome, frankly shocked I haven't hear ANY of those tunes here?! |
| rdo (DC) | Posted: Jul 17, 2011 - 16:41 Wow, finally a Bob Mould song... |
| Foot | Posted: Jan 09, 2011 - 17:03 Don't see any reason why RP can't add (at least) "Wishing Well" and "Lonely Afternoon" off Bob Mould's 1st solo outing, Workbook (1989 I think). Was a huge Husker Du fan, saw them 3 times & have seen Mould w/ Sugar and also solo acoustic. It's true what they say about Kurt Cobain: he knew he'd never be this good and so... |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Oct 06, 2010 - 19:36 For what it's worth, I submitted "Last Drag of the Day" by Bob Mould, and it's still in "review" at 100/0. Maybe someday they'll put it on the playlist. Meanwhile, anything by Mould is worth a listen. |

I prefer Mould, just himself and his guitar ala the introspective self titled Bob Mould in 96. Some beautiful stuff there and one of my personal favorite albums of the 90's. Pretty good song, 6. Love Mould. |

| rp1125 (nola) | Posted: Apr 30, 2010 - 09:46 first thought was husker du on ambien, but turned out not bad |

| ddbytor | Posted: Dec 11, 2008 - 11:00 R e j e c t e d ? ? ? Didn't know who it was, but I liked the contrast between the guitar and the odd backing. Turns out it's Mould who I know from his Husker Du days (do they play any of that?) |

| meydele (By the sea) | Posted: May 24, 2007 - 13:23 OMG! Bob Mould!! I love this guy. . . he has so much good music. This song is new to me, but I've missed his more recent output. Not bad at all . . . I was half-listening, thinking this was a pretty good track, when his voice caught my ear and I realized who it was. . . Workbook is a stellar cd, and there are many cuts that should make the RP playlist. |

Totally agree. |
| DBCinCA (California) | Posted: Mar 22, 2007 - 16:41 Is this one of those albums where he played all the instruments and produced? An undeniable talent, but somehow I think something is lost when one guy just goes in the studio and does everything. I definitely hear lots of vocal overdubs. I liked Husker Du, Sugar, and the "Workbook" CD - all fine listening. Saw him on the "Workbook" tour in San Francisco, and it was one of the worst shows I've ever been to - maybe the worst. He didn't say one word to the audience, ripped through his set with technical skill but little feeling - like we were watching a sound check all night. Then on the last song, it just went on and on. I'm sittting there thinking... "Quite an ending, can't believe it's so long... this is too long... this is so long it's cool again.... nope, past cool again and back to dumb." Then he just ended with a major feedback squwak, dropped the guitar and walked off. I actually said aloud "F*** you too, Bob." Don't think he heard me, or would have cared. |
| Bocephus (Boulder, CO) | Posted: Mar 22, 2007 - 16:33 too bad the rest of the album isn't this good. great tune though. |

Not sure where he is now, but he was in Austin, Texas for quite a while. I was lucky enough to see him after the release of Workbook in Dallas. Amazing show. If you want any Bob Mould, definitely get Workbook. I personally love the first 2/3rds of the album. (Not as hot on the songs after Trenton.) If you are looking for something a little harder, Sugar's album Copper Blue is amazing. The Act We Act and If I Can't Change Your Mind are both fantastic songs off that album. He is definitely worth looking into harder! I'm actually really surprised that he doesn't have more songs on RP! He was living in Wash DC last I knew and had a blog online.... |
| fredriley (Nottingham, UK) | Posted: Dec 22, 2006 - 11:25 Hmm, I'm on a bad run here. This is a 2, and the of the five previous numbers only Tears for Fears squeezed a 3. C'mon Santa, deliver me a 5 at least, pretty please with knobs on :) |
| halfgazo (Vancouver) | Posted: Sep 11, 2006 - 03:38 One of Bob's best solo songs. Sugar kicked a$$ however. The last time I saw bob was back in 96-97 after his Bob Mould album. By the time he got to Portland, Or. he had fired his whole band and played acostic until the encore. Ironically it was an great show. |
