Wow, all this time and I didn't know that the songwriting credits to Bitter Sweet Symphony are held by Jagger and Richards.
 
Anyone here a Beck fan? I've always liked his music, from what little I've heard. I'd like to check out some of albums, but not sure where to start.

I like songs like Scarecrow, Go it Alone, and Lost Cause. Though, as mentioned above, I haven't heard much more than that.

Suggestions? The wikipedia article mentions Sea Change as one of his best albums.

Sea Change is good, particularly Guess I'm Doing Fine, but my three favourites of his are Mutations, Guero and The Information. Most of his stuff has a huge range of styles, so you may not like everything on them, as I don't. But he certainly has some standout work on all thee albums.

Sea Change is the only one I've heard, but I really enjoyed it.  I don't know what I imagined Beck's music to sound like, but it wasn't like that.  It's a really dreamy record, it memory serves.
 
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here 2011 Experience edition
Written by Matt 
Tuesday, 08 November 2011

Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here - 2011 Experience edition. Subsequent to the major release day at the end of September which marked the first phase of the Why Pink Floyd remaster and reissue campaign, phase two has now happened. Released in most territories on November 7th/8th 2011, Wish You Were Here is the second of the "big three" that have been given the Experience and Immersion treatment, and as a follow up to our reviews of the individual albums, the collection box set, and the Dark Side Of The Moon Experience and Immersion sets, we now turn our attention to these new editions of the band's 1975 classic.

To reiterate previous coverage on this site, this Experience edition of the album features the 2011 remaster of the album, and comes with a second CD containing previously unreleased and unheard live and studio recordings. The live tracks come from the Wembley Empire Pool in November 1974, and the studio recordings are alternative versions from the WYWH sessions, along with a second track from the aborted Household Objects project. In due course, our extensive look at the Immersion set and the SACD release will also be on Brain Damage, but before then, below, we take a good look at each aspect of the Wish You Were Here Experience edition...

 
I like dabbling in music as a hobby, but man oh man, is DIY recording such a long process.

Do any of you record?

I'm kicking myself for having missed Mumford and Sons last month. Would have loved to have seen them live.

Yeah I know...couldn't come up with anything nicer than 'seriously?'...
 
Any Chuck Jackson fans? I wake up crying is an awesome tune. It's got a really cool sound.
 
I'm kind of liking Of Monsters and Men, if for no other reason than I get to start the conversation with "they're from Iceland, you probably haven't heard of them".
