Happy New Year

I hope to see more of these. I enjoyed reading them even if I didn’t have much to say in response.

Starsailor - Yeah kind of agree with you here. A few classic tunes that have an eerie weird dreamy or cool idiosyncratic quality and others that are a bit dull. I appreciate the record for it being weird and challenging but only something I like to put on when I’m in the mood. I haven’t heard much of anything else Tim Buckley did either (haven’t even heard Grace at all yet) but he definitely fascinates me and been wanting to hear more of his stuff. I guess I did hear a bit of ” Lorca” one time but he does have a lot of a kind of samey low key sounding folky/singer songwriter kind of stuff that I don’t think you would care for very much. Apparently he got into funk in his later career which is funny.

Spot on with Atom Heart Mother. If and Summer of 68 are underrated tunes and Fat Old Sun reminds me of the Kinks..Alan’s Psych Breakfast sounded really good to me stoned too. Title track is pointless.

BTW a movie of Pink Floyd post-Syd, pre Dark Side would be so great.

It always blows my mind that Heart Of Gold was a billboard 100 number 1 hit in 1972. I mean I guess it was commercial enough but I still can’t imagine a song like that being so popular like that today.

I love Nevermind The Bollocks still. Most songs are catchy and snotty and hilarious still to this day and i.love the backing band. Great guitar work and drumming. Overrated as far as a pioneering punk rock recording but as a classic rock album it’s great.
