What Are You Listening To?

maybe I am old.  maybe, they are old.  maybe my tastes, have changed.  trying out, the new dinosaur jr album, and find it lack luster . . . and kind of the same old what I would expect but even mellowed down more, with rarer highlight flashbacks to jesus, god and j.  and good lord, take me away from these lou disruptions.

lots of joe zawinul solo stuff pre and post miles/weather report, although really enjoy his stuff with cannonball, so joyful and sometimes trippy.

I always wondered that too. When I saw him on the Niggy Tardust tour you could have fooled me that he wasn't the biggest rock star in the world though! He was fantastic!
wasn't he spoken word?

Some of his music is spoken word. 
L7 - Bricks are Heavy
Genya Ravan- Urban Desire

I have been listening to all the albums for a while, getting ready.  worst album by them, in your opinion?
Bricks are Heavy and Hungry for Stink are my two favorites.

L7 is probably my least favorite album by them.  I do appreciate the punk vibes, but I really think they hit their stride in the grungier albums.  I also have not listened to their last two that much so I do not have a strong opinion on either…
