Yet I don't know anyone in the thread has actually said I'm wrong! :lol:


I'm saying your wrong ... your point isn't some profound statement, it's perfunctory observation at best.

You don't like music, you're in puppy love with the fidelity of more modern music.

You're free to do that of course. You're just not free to pretend to offer insightful music criticism. It's like somebody extolling the virtues of Arby's while shitting all over the concept of the five mother sauces and their actual importance to the culinary arts.

You can listen to all the Taylor Swift or Fallout Boy or whoever you want. Just don't try to argue that they're anything other than flash in the pan "blech" or, worse yet, somehow better than, say, Charlie Christian or even Chuck Berry for that matter.


Spot on.

Yep. Pretty much.

The second one was better than the first...in keeping with the thread.

I responded to his claim of 1972, before I read your Some Girls post, dingus.

Emotional Rescue is an underrated album from the just-post-Some Girls era.

People call Oasis a Beatles rip off. That's why JORR said it.


When Oasis gets back together, you're coming to the show with me.

Pretty sure XTC falls into that category too. They do it better than Oasis IMO .

No disrespect to Oasis or XTC...both have quality music, but I comparing them in any way shape or form with the Beatles is ridiculous.

I'm done with the Beatles. I've heard their shit for years and it's worn thin. With the exception of Abbey Road, they've become an automatic nails on the chalkboard. That doesn't take away from the fact they are likely the most influential band of all time.

But only because you know who the Beatles are and you know that XTC and Oasis would not exist without them having existed first (something that obviously shouldn't be discounted). If "Hey Jude", "Wonderwall", and "Dear God" all came out on the same day in 2006, I doubt most people would say "Hey Jude" was the best of the three songs.

That's because bar none the Beatles are the most over rated band in the history of music.
No one really likes the Beatles.
They feel obligated to say they do.

Oasis is OK. I have a couple of their CDs somewhere. That Supernova song was one of the most bloated flatulent peices of music that ever got significant radio play.

Maybe "Start Me Up" could beat it out. Just awful.

I certainly don't think that's the case. I'm not sure about bridge construction.


It's certainly the case with NFL and NBA players.

Of course they are. Better layouts. Newer amenities. There is a reason that whole suburban neighborhoods have seen the houses get torn down and rebuilt.

That is why most older houses basically get completely redone to even compete with the newer construction.
