This http://www.videosift.com/video/Reconstructing-a-famous-photograph-40-years-later is possibly my favourite. I've always loved the photo of Dylan and the kids in Liverpool (1966) and one day I was searching for it on google as I couldn't find it on my hard drive. One of the things that came up was this vid that I had never seen or heard of. Enjoy!

My PQ is rather small, but here's a gem: http://www.videosift.com/video/Travelling-Wilburys-Inside-Out . It's from the second Travelling Wilburys album (jokingly titled "Volume 3"). Super groups often fail, but when you've got George Harrison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynne (Roy Orbison unfortunatly died right after the first album was released) it's gonna turn out great.

Great idea, AC

^ They didn't become known for their songwriting until years after they became popular. Also, there are very few examples of good songwriting in those early songs (first 3 albums).

If you're trying to tell me that a song like "She loves you" became popular because of its great lyrics, you must be insane. For example:

She says she loves you
And you know that can't be bad.
Yes, she loves you
And you know you should be glad.

In the beginning the Beatles was, among other things, best known for their catchy melodies, which incorporated a lot of harmonies and a steady rhythm section. The most important reason they played so well together, both on stage and in the studio, was that they had a lot of practice at it. One random fact; their first album "Please Please Me" was recorded in less than 10 hours, so they obviously were great musicians and used to playing together. It wasn't until later (around the release of Rubber Soul" in 1965) that their lyrics really started getting excellent.

sounds like Eddie Vedder trying to poop


Creed always sounded like that. That was the name of their hard-to-find first album:

CREED, Hard 2 Poop

Haha! Great idea for a game and the results are ridicaliss awesome almost every time it seems. Did you come up with this yourself, ydj?

Here's my first attempt. Given the dimensions, my first album must have been released on dvd:

nice stuff, first album gem

*livemusic

The album (A) Senile Animal is the first album (that I know of) where the Melvins utilized 2 drummers instead of just 1. It's a great listen because much of the album the drummers play in sync to each other and you cannot tell there are 2, then just when you are sure there is only 1, they blow your mind out with something 1 drummer could never do.

No offense taken, man.

Since you brought the issue up, I was looking for a different feed. (Since I actually agree with your opinion of mash-ups, if not as vehemently.) Turns out there is an audio-only version. I'm updating the embed code now...

Fuuuuck. My mistake then. In my memory I had posted the Tae Kwan Leap version. Apologies, but again I didn't downvote because I thought it was a dupe. It's because I hate HATE HATE mash-ups. I think they cheat both pieces of source material in almost all cases. Check my downvote record and see how often I downvote mashups. In your case I downvoted without watching or seeing because mashing up audio of the Frantics with anything other than video of the Frantics offends me to the very core.

No, seriously dude. It's a totally different skit. Check it out:

You posted "Last Will and Temperment" off The Frantics first album "Frantic Times".

I posted "Tae Kwon Leap" off of their second album "Boot to the Head."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ti_Kwan_Leep

If you want to downvote because the only YouTube version I found when I looked was one with Naruto clips spliced in, I can't stop you. But is it really so hard to just look away and enjoy the audio? It's an awesome skit.

If you didn't like it, that's cool. Your opinion is your own. But it's still not a duplicate, since it is a totally different skit.

In reply to this comment by budzos:
I know it's not the exact same thing, but it's the same bloody skit. It's obnoxious to post it again. The downvote is because I object to most mash-ups, and definitely this one in particular. Plus, DJSunkid already posted the original audio with a totally inappropriate anime viedo part. So it's a dupe of his post if not mine.

My clip has audio and video of the actual Frantics in it, but you two goofballs think it's better to show it with anime video because you like the audio better. Nitwits.

Not a duplicate. Your post is a completely different skit by the same comedy troupe.

It might help if you tried watching or listening to any part of the video before downvoting.

What about the chick with big hair who co-hosted AFP? God, she was the epitome of 80's skank...


Tawny Kitaen. Got her big start on the cover of R.A.T.T. first album and married the lead singer of White Snake. Paris Hilton for the 80's.

cool! and yeah, great album. we were just discussing classic album covers here, and then i finally 'fixed' this, so i thought it appropriate.

off to rechannel some car sifts.

Confession: me too!

His 3 albums are some of the most valued treasures of my 90s CD collection, so I couldn't help jumping back on the old 900-foot bandwagon by posting another of his videos. Didn't know he used to have long hair!

P.S. Your avatar is the first album I ever owned! (yes, on vinyl)

I watched it. Pretty good little summary. Dr. Seelig is a little on the dry side and therefore might not appeal to the philistines.

Hey, I was about to post this and dedicate it to you:

Walsh is a fantastic guitar player, and of course, a Wichita boy.

I saw you were the only one that upvoted the Rainmaker's tunes. Bob Walkenhorst and the boys are Kansas City natives. They came so close to really hitting it big. Their first album, The Rainmakers, was critically acclaimed, but the follow-up album sputtered and ruined their chances. I love their lyrics,
One line is a favorite from the song "The wages of sin"

"The wages of sin is 2 bucks an hour and working weekends."

Thanks, buddy! You must like this song because the imagery is similar to what you might see right before the gas puts you under. Maybe.
