Annabelle 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 Note to all rappers: you have 9 months to get your shit together. New video is up on YouTube right now where Dr. Dre says he's releasing "Detox" in September 07. right. does anyone care about him anymore? he's associated himself & produced such awful artists that its hard to care. i think dre should r.i.p. That's the same shit people said before Chronic 2001 came out. right. and people were saying great things about him when THAT came out? come on. let the old men retire.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 If Dre can get Snoop and Eminem to do videos for "Detox" it will go platinum. Detox will go platinum regardless of its content. Whether it'll be any good (I'm skeptical about anything this oft-delayed) is entirely a different question. Also--and I've made this argument on this board several times, so forgive me for repeating myself--but people forget that Chronic 2001 wasn't exactly a great album. Fantastic singles, and the rest was filler with entirely too much Hitman. And that was 7 years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

godthedog 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2006 it occurs to me that 'let it be' is a better album than 'magical mystery tour'. this despite the fact that the latter had 3 of the best songs the beatles ever did, and the former isn't even that good. that's how bad the filler on 'magical mystery tour' is. holy shit is it useless. it's like if ween did some really clever parody of a beatles album. "blue jay way" and "your mother should know" are especially weenlike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2006 Regarding the Beach Boys being a surf music band...they weren't. They might have been in the VERY early days but certainly not beyond 1963. They sang ABOUT surfing certainly but those songs don't fall under the surf music banner. They adeqately covered 'Let's Go Trippin' and 'Miserlou' and even attempted to write some of their own surf instrumentals - but with little success. 'Mr Moto' was an early concert staple. Largely, however, surf music belonged to such groups as Johnny & The Hurricanes, not to mention the brilliant Dick Dale & the Deltones. Reference: 'Understanding The Beach Boys for the best in Surf Music' by Stephen J McParland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Report post Posted December 12, 2006 You contradicted yourself, though. Clearly they were at one point, but progressed beyond it. Nobody's arguing that they were always a surf band, just that they were in the early '60s. (I think. I'm not following this argument closely.) "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" isn't a surf classic. I don't understand why we're being so rigid with goddamned genre designations here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Man in Blak 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2006 it occurs to me that 'let it be' is a better album than 'magical mystery tour'. this despite the fact that the latter had 3 of the best songs the beatles ever did, and the former isn't even that good. that's how bad the filler on 'magical mystery tour' is. holy shit is it useless. it's like if ween did some really clever parody of a beatles album. "blue jay way" and "your mother should know" are especially weenlike. I always think of Magical Mystery Tour as a compilation, rather than a full-blown studio release. The only songs that appear in the movie are the first five, while the rest are just tacked on from other singles and this "filler" is, agreed, some of the best stuff that they've ever done. I could easily slot "I Am The Walrus" and "Strawberry Fields Forever" in my favorite songs of all time. As for the songs from the actual movie, I can live without all of them, really. The Residents' take on "Flying" is the only thing related to music from the movie itself that I would actually go out of my way to enjoy...and that's only because it's so gloriously fucked up.

snuffbox 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2006 I agree that the Beach Boys were NOT always surf rock. Again, those names I used beat out more precise options like Dale just because they are the most recognizable. The point, again, was just to say that Donovan Frankenreiter does not belong in said genre. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" isn't a surf classic. I don't understand why we're being so rigid with goddamned genre designations here. I should have said: They might have PLAYED surf music in the very early days. Removing any contradiction there, I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I love when someone posts about the Beatles, because I then immediately put on a Beatles album and just think, jeez, I'm never not gonna love these guys. The four huge songs on the second half of Magical Mystery Tour (I put "I Am the Walrus" just outside that group, though I do like it) are just facerapingly great.
