They really needed to break up when Berry retired but they overstayed decades and I don’t think anyone is really pining for them….their music hasn’t aged particularly well…. But then again I never really got them

Yeah, I think that's you. I still listen to the first 6-7 REM records frequently and I think they hold up great. But if you never liked then to begin with, obviously you're not magically going to like them a decade later. But I don't think the music sounds quaint or corny or something years later like lots of other music does.
well…since we don't have a released thread yet….

A federal judge on Monday approved the unconditional release of John Hinckley Jr., who tried to assassinate former President Reagan in 1981.

Am sorry man… this board let you down
DLR is amazing


Worst singer… just horrible …on live recordings even from peak VH years he sounds like a dying cat


But through sheer personality and guts he became one of the greatest frontmen in rock and also powered VH to the top… is Eddie or was Eddie - that hurts- the most influential guitarist since Jimi? Yeah but without DLR I have a feeling that at best he would have been giving lessons at Guitar Center


DLR is what rock and roll is all about.
