The Reivers "Other Side" (live)

[ZumbaDeLuxe]

Just love them.

[SupernalOne]

the Smithsonian should have a Museum of American Music, containing sections on Joe Walsh, Nils Lofgren, and the Reivers (and dozens more)

[Nigelxman]

@SupernalOne and maybe omit Joe Walsh and Nils Lofgren and add The Bats and The Chills and The Go-Betweens and The Feelies, and Innocence Mission and Oh....The Church. Oh and a about 100 other artists more worthy than the two you mentioned. lol Seriously man...Joe Walsh?? Ugh.

[SupernalOne]

@Nigelxman

I'll check out the artists you mentioned, to see what I'm missing -- but the Church? I found them kinda flat, passionless -- but no accounting for taste :)

Walsh has done some nice sweet heartfelt soft rock songs in his various solo albums, I rather like a lot of his stuff - not necessarily The Bomber or Life's Been Good so much -- but obviously you and I are from different eras, and not seeing it the same way -- no offense, it's a free country more or less

[Nigelxman]

The Church "flat and passionless"?? haha You're my hero man. :-) You're definitely correct about taste. I'm less than 10 years younger than you by the way. Grew up with the Beatles and the Stones and a million other sixties and 70's bands to start off with.

Grew up with the Beatles and the Stones and a million other sixties and 70's bands to start off with. I actually like some of Joe Walsh's early stuff as well. He would just never some to mind to me as a musical icon, but thank God we're all different and don't all like the Church or Nils Lofgren. :)

@Nigelxman

Sure, Walsh is a minor character in the world of rock, he's just so quintessentially midwestern, singing songs about indian summer etc -- I was thinking of a room in the rock gods museum containing homegrowns, local boys made good - but leaving out springsteen, his intensity gets annoying :)

Actually, I do like funk, new wave, fusion, prog, alt, acid rock, & various eclectic artists - but today I'll check out your suggestions, always glad to be turned on to new music - thx!

Could someone please translate alcmeds' posting for me slowly?

[wsterbrg]

There is something unbelievably hot about a girl in a dress playing guitar...

[jmw102667]

@wsterbrg You've got that right brother!

[chumley4152]

Saw two shows in Chicago in 91 at the Lounge Ax and was blown away -- the energy was unmatched...the songs are fantastic and Kim Longacre was easy on the eyes. How can I get tickets for the reunion show?

[alcmed]

Adoro o jeito simples e despojado que essa dupla faz na banda! Um som que transcende ao

tempo! Magníficos!

[brentmcd]

i loved this band. heard they might play a reunion show??!?

[MosesHall84]

oh yes, and I fully expect to have 4 tix in my grubby little 'virtual' paws in about 15 minutes....

[zaslantsy]

The words "honesty" and "joy" were just way too small for this band. The flame of life burned so strong in this band they almost deserved a whole new category. Viva la Reivers!

[HollyGee67]

Hearing this brought tears to my eyes, reminding me how much I loved this band and the pure honesty and joy they displayed in their music, and how I tired to create that same feeling in my music. Thank you for reminding me of the why I always will love this band. I miss them and miss hearing music of this caliber.

[MosesHall84]

hell, yeah!

[JANGLEPOP1]

Another awesome performance! Stuck here in the UK I will never be fortunate enough to witness quality live music like this! Brilliant!
