For me, it's just never grown on me, as many other albums have. I take it out every couple months, hoping it would finally click, but nothing yet.
I wasn't too fond of direct at first, but just recently, i've really started enjoying it. |
Same here.
I do like "Related" and the Radioactive Singles version of "Mr. Magoo"

Hmmmm...perhaps "hasn't grown on me yet" would be a better description. I need to listen to it again to get a better feel for it. I've had the disc for a couple of years, and just haven't gotten into it.
Perhaps I've been lazy (or passive) in listening. Classic 77s albums like Sticks and Stones and Pray Naked have more melodic pop hooks (i.e. the U2ish "Do It for Love", "The Rain Kept Falling in Love") which make them more memorable and perhaps more accessible.
Crows is a rock and roll album that didn't immediately jump out and grab me like so much of the other 77s material.
Dorf,
You've inspired me to go back and listen to Crows this weekend.
I'll try to listen to it more actively and either
1) appreciate it more
or
2) pinpoint why it's not high on my list of 77's records.

I'll say Crows is a low point. But Tom Tom is good.
but they glossed over a lot of good stuff released after 1989 |
True. The other two self-titled albums ("Pray Naked" and the EP) were simply amazing...plus Mike's outstanding solo work.

... and 3) from the WTF department: "If there is a low point to this period, it is the band’s 2001 album, A Golden Field of Radioactive Crows, a guitar-driven album full of overwrought, pseudo-hard-rock posturing and musical and lyrical clichés."

That line surprised me a bit too; though I must admit I agree with him.
Golden Field and Tom Tom Blues are, in my opinion, low points in the 77s catalog.

Bryan --
that's a really great question, one that i've wondered about some of the people that i'm a fan of.
a lot of people (not in da, and i won't mention names) claim to never listen again to something that they've done, once they're done with it.
there are a lot of things that i've played on that i won't listen to again, but i'm still such a fan (sorry if that sounds stupid) of what terry/da do, and of (sorry carl) the choir stuff, that once in a while i will pull something out to listen to, especially if it was someone else's song and all i did was play bass on it. but even at that, i guess, not very often.
((i really do love to hear something new!)) |
Thanks!

hey, let's hear from the LURKERS today!
come on, lukers, come on by and say hello. tell us who ya are. |
yea, how can you pass up an invitation like that?
the DAmb needs some new members anyway...
otherwise Tim is going to be asked the same old questions
by the same old members about the same old topics...
SEE:
how is the Choir CD coming along... ?
any Swirling Eddies news... ?
have you heard from Tonio K. recently... ? |
Yeah, Tim... how's the Choir CD coming along?
I'm curious about something else too...
It would be fairly normal for someone on this list to approach his/her CD collection, pause for a moment deciding which disc to spin, and then select a Daniel Amos or Choir album.
If you were to approach your CD collection and pause for a moment, would you think about listening to a DA or Choir album? Do you think, "Nah, I've heard that a million times" or "Cool, Mr. Buechner! I haven't heard that one in a while." or "Nah, their bass player thinks he's so much better than me"?
I'm just curious how a musician would approach his own music as a listener (if at all).

Hey Tim,
Thanks for writing! I'm a semi-lurker.
I post regularly and read often but
don't have any pseudonyms,
haven't met any board members in real life,
don't have my own band, website or "Lyrics Bryan Likes" thread.
You know...sort of "in but not of" the DAMB.
I did get an email from one of your cats today:

I've frequented his website for over a year and have always read it thinking that the writer was a female. He isn't, and now I have no idea why I thought that he was a she.
