Agree. To my ears at least the album version sounds muddy. Here you can here all the little subtleties and I like it a lot more.docinwestchester wrote:Another amazing performance of the much maligned title song. It's so much better live!

Pre-ordered the new Decemberists album. Pretty sure it's going to be a good one. They've been playing some of this material live for a year or more. I remember hearing "Down By the Water" two summers ago at Newport.

Re: Relatively Insignificant EC Stuff. . .
There is a review of Marnie Stern's new album in this week's issue of The New Yorker that refers to Elvis (and Paul Weller) as "formerly dominant post-punk figures" (as contrasted with the increasing influence of once unfashionable "virtuosic" bands like King Crimson). Ouch. And ...

Re: Wake up you footy fans!!!
What's happenned to the footy discussion? I've got a question. Been watching the Premiership games for a few years, but I know very little about the game. The players who have impressed me over the years have been Ronaldo (although never liked the fancy moves that went nowhere), Henri, that Rudd gu...
