Forum Album Club #1 - Tattoo You/ Rolling Stones -Wolof

[Crispy]

Did Mick Taylor guest on a few tracks as well?

He played on Tops and Waiting on a Friend. Got left out of the video though.  :P

There is quite a bit of sax on this album....the onion's A/V club had an inventory list listing songs almost ruined by the overuse of Sax Bowie's Young Americans was on it so was a Hold Steady track...any thoughts too much sax on Tattoo you? I think they make it work

BRING ON THE SAX!!!

YimB between the name, the avatar and the posts you are by far the best new forum member, no offense to others, YimB could fancy realtions with cattle, but damn Jim Duggan really does it for me everytime....kinda like the sax on this album!

Haha thanks wolof. Shoutout to my bovine buddies.  ;)

This record just feels great, 11 tracks, one flip, stunning music.  Great Record, Great Choice. 

Favorite Lyric....

Standing in the kitchen
Looking way out cross the fields
You see a face in the window
It not real, it not real

that's right

Is everyone finished with the album bc I went back and put it on Heaven again, wishin I had some jibbajabba

No, he played on the tracks as part of the Stones. Tatoo You is made up of unreleased pre-recorded tracks, some dating back 10 years. Overdubs and other tweaks were done much later, during production.

The vocal overdubbing on No Use In Crying is making you glad you re-lit that joint.

Amen to that.  Making me wish I would have packed one before the listening party.  Maybe that should be a prerequisite for next week...  8)

I think I would have more to contribute for sure...   :P

New appreciation for this record, thank you, wolof.

Not just for this album but for the Stones period for me.  I have re-connected with this band thanks to you wolof and it starts with this very understated album. 

I happen to love the sax in this album!  It definitely works on this record!

[wolof7]

Well that was a fun listen and the discussion can continue throughout the week...or as long as this world keeps spinnin 

Shall the chosen one announce the next pick?


o and thanks for the kind words all, it was really easy, lets keep it going, easy with a fine bunch of fellows and the occasional lady circulating around these parts.

This is like being at the cool table at lunch   8)

More like being at the dork table except no one in a letterman's jacket just smacked me in the back of the head.

This maybe fairly true. Wolof appointed me as the next in line to select a record, so here you go (I'll post in the other thread too:

Now Here Is Nowhere by The Secret Machines

SWEET, I have heard some serious buzz about this record on the forum lately.  Looking forward to checking it out.

Well, this is another dandy that I haven't given much of a listen to recently and also makes my quote above even more relevant...  ;)

Super Excited for this one, I only own Ten Silver Drops and know that this is the one preferred by most. Great pick Crispy!!!

I'd like to think this was like being at the stoner table myself.  I can recall from personal experience...  :P

[YimBlaylock]

Awesome. This is why this club is awesome. I can honestly say I have zero knowledge of The Secret Machines or their music. And after a quick look-up on wikipedia, I'm seeing prog rock listed as their primary genre. Prog rock isn't something I delve into that often, so hopefully this helps expand my palette just a little bit. Can't wait!

Ha! I think the buzz you've heard has pretty much come from me. I probably pimp this record too much, but I think it's worth it. Glad you guys are into it!

I would definitely put this one WAY above Ten Silver Drops.

Ha, I think you're probably right.  I just looked this record up on Rhapsody and it lists it under DREAM POP/SPACE ROCK that might be my favorite Rhapsody description combination of all time.  "Space Rock" being my most very favorite.

There is nothing worse than being stoned and getting smacked in the back of the head for no reason. 

Well I'm sure there is, but not when it happens.
