[quote name="Fussbett"][quote name="Senor Barborito"]I don't know anything about the Beatles at all, really, but I believe this one was entirely a John Lennon deal.[/quote] Yes, John wrote it and it appears on the Beatles "<A href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000002UB6/qid=1042320389/sr=1-16/ref=sr_1_16/102-5643647-3574562?v=glance&s=music" target="georgemartin">Let it Be</a>" album. A good song, but Fiona's is a better performance. [quote name="ToutSuite"]I don't know if it's the fact that I only heard whatever Amazon has deigned to super-compress and put on their site in realPlayer format or if it's because I have good taste, but that sounded like the worst garbage I've ever heard. More precisely, it sounded like every band playing in the various garages in my neighborhood when I was in high school, except most of them had slightly better singers.[/quote] I seriously doubt kids in your hood were doing late-90s brutal hardcore in 1986, so I'm going to assume they were doing speedmetal and Metallica covers, but your wussy ears can't tell the two apart (also: RealPlayer). I don't expect you to understand the difference, but to help convey the split-hair to you, it's the same reason that you can listen to classic rock radio, yet hate The Eagles and Pink Floyd passionately. To the outside observer, it's all the same stinky shit. [quote name="Alternate789"]Johnny Cash rocks. But I'm suspicious of his newer stuff because the inclusion of newer artists seems too much like the Santana-sell-out album <i>Supernatural</i>, or even worse, <i>Shaman</i>. Ugh. [/quote] The Rusty Cage track is extremely stripped down and features no guests.[/quote]
