Do you have a 'tester' record?

demonrail666 · 06.15.2007, 05:26 AM

An album that, if you discovered a person didn't like it, you might have to wonder whether you could ever truly consider them a friend.

The Pixies - Doolittle

I don't understand how anyone could not love that record. But i do have friends who are not pixies fans.

If a person doesn't like Hip Hop or ethnic music, I immediately think that they are narrow minded. It's not always the case, though.

You wouldn't find many people who like Cowboy Junkies, anyway.

demonrail666 · 06.15.2007, 05:38 AM

I don't hate Doolittle, but have never been that much of a fan either. The Pixies came along at a time when I was listening to other stuff.

I'm flicking v-signs in the general direction of London. Can you feel them?

If you really couldn't find ANYTHING to like in this, then I'd have issues. You wouldn't need to love it, as such, just enjoy it - at least a bit.

I dunno about that. The Trinity Sessions is a great album.

In my experience, fans of Hip Hop and 'ethnic' music can be amongst the most narrow-minded people I've met.

Rock fans are much worse. How many people who play or listen to world music do you know to make such a claim?

demonrail666 · 06.15.2007, 05:53 AM

I'd generally agree about fans of World music, but see no real indication of major open-mindedness with your average (and I stress average) 50 Cent fan. And this coming from someone who likes Rap a lot.

demonrail666 · 06.15.2007, 06:03 AM

Anyone closing themselves off from a genre in its entirety is clearly a fool, but this isn't about genres but single albums, etc.

So while I generally see nothing of any value in this:

I see an awful lot to love in this:

Two, actually: The Modern Lovers (s/t) and Sticky Fingers.

You must have an enormous amount of mates, then.

What has 50 Cent got to do with it?
