Firm up the vocal and it would be better, maybe it’s a grower, so turn it up.

I remember reading about Gary and that album of his a couple decades ago, how it was some lost obscure masterpiece from the 70s… anyways, I quite liked that song, the combination of the creamy keyboard dance stuff with the spoken word punk style of Lou Reed or somebody. Turn it up certainly.

Offline I’ll be honest – I find this song a bit overrated. The Jam have never really been my jam. 
Turn it down, for me personally.
Next song:

Offline My least favorite song on Royal Scam. Phenomenal Larry Carlton guitar work on the intro. Particularly in the context of that album after the masterpiece that is Green Earrings and the filthy talkbox on Hatian Divorce I turn it down.
Lets see if anybody here wants to get down to Oysterhead

Haha ok wow, I was listening to this having not ever heard of Oysterhead, and thought it kinda reminded me of Primus, and that the guitarist/singer looked a bit like Trey from Phish. And I looked it up afterwards, to find that it was indeed Anastasio, and Primus’ Les Claypool on bass, plus Stu Copeland from the Police on drums, some supertrio! I thought the track began in a jazz fusion vein, was a little surprised and disappointed when it turned into an actual (meandering) kinda song, with words and singing, even though I couldn’t tell what the words were about. I did like some of Trey’s Wah-Wah noises (and all three musicians are obviously legends on their instruments), so turn it up a tiny bit.
Ok, from 1968, The United States of America with “Hard Coming Love”
Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

Offline Never even heard of him till now, I see he’s Canadian 
. His voice kinda reminds me of Tom T. Hall’s. I’d have to play it a second or third time to see what the whole lyric is about, but aside from that it sounded pretty nice on its own. Turn it up one notch, please.
[For this song, note the lyric declaring “Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles’ new record’s a gas!” – ie. it’s groovy, it’s far out, man. “Long And Winding Road” single was released four days after this, and a month after the breakup becoming known.]

Haha, when that album was newly released a year ago, I gave it a few beers of thought, and a headphone listening, and instantly (drunkenly) reviewed it for my friend @montyclift , via messaging…and this track was my choice for standout of the album:
So turn the Stones (and Ms. Germanotta!) up

These guys are breaking up after this tour. Saw them on Saturday and Sunday sadly for the last time.

Offline Eh, turn it up a li’l bit, I guess. Obviously they all play well, I like the guitarist’s 2nd solo; but wish he hadn’t taken the bulk of the spotlight time (sharing with the inconsequential music-box piano interludes) when there’s a full horn section not being used for much. Give the baritone man a solo!
Obviously I wanted the performance to be something it wasn’t, and that’s unfair to the Dopapod Orchestra. 🙁 So turn it up a li’l bit.
Turn it up or down: R. Dean Taylor, “My Ladybug (Stay Away From That Beatle)”, recorded March 1964 (though unreleased at the time)
Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

Offline I think it would be a lot better if the handclaps weren’t so far up in the mix and non-changing; they are right there from the very start and never seem to do anything else. I’d therefore have it turned up a little as background music and far higher if the mix was changed.
Storming up the charts 50 years ago in the US and soon to be #1 – The Carpenters with ‘Please Mister Postman ‘, which is apparently the UK’s favourite Carpenters song.

Offline Theirs would be the first version of the Marvelettes’ classic that I knew, several years before learning the original (and 11 years before hearing the Fabs cover on a borrowed “Beatles Second Album”). Some out-of-town aunt or older cousin bought me the Carpenters single in 1975, most probably March; I didn’t request the single, but I liked it, liked the song. Karen and Richard Carpenter were omnipresent on the pop radio in that era…
…anyways, this is not an official post, I did the last one, so whoever is next will decide to turn the Carpenters up or down…

Seems like the last time I posted a jamband in this thread I nearly killed it. (Thanks von) Heres something a little more paletable hopefully.
