albums

There was a fairly recent poll about what streaming site people use, so I thought that I'd ask y'all, in this modern age of wonder, if you still prefer to listen to entire albums all the way through. Personally, I always listen to whole albums and still feel there is a lot of value in taking in...

Took me awhile to appreciate the fidelity of this album. While not as polished sounding as their self titled, and not as thick and scooped as Transistor, Soundsystem is REALLY balanced. I know for the most part P-Nut has used his Streamer 5 string on most everything he’s recorded, but does...

a band i recently heard of this weekend, which was a project by peter banks after he left yes in 1970. flash! great jazzy chords and that sort of sweeping “banks” sound that you hear on the early yes records. also, the bassist (ray bennett) is using the 21 fretter rickenbacker his little-known...

what are some albums that, despite your musical journey through the years, you just keep coming back and listening to? whether in parts, a few songs, or in full. my picks are todd rundgren’s something/anything and chicago’s chicago transit authority. and by extension, i’ll also throw in the two...

What are one or two of your favorite albums that, for one reason or another, didn't get the recognition like other records the band made. What are your favorite more overlooked albums by popular bands. The albums don't have to be completely unknown, but just underrated when compared with their...

Any good debut (i.e. first album releases) this year from bands or artists featuring a real bass player? 2020 has to have a few gems in there... right?

I might have the opportunity to play in a Big Band but I've never played in such a big setting. Which Big Band albums would you recommend listening to to prepare myself?

I play guitar and bass, so in certain songs I am drawn to one or the other in the mix. In Stax stuff, I always hear Cropper—not Dunn (sacrilege, I know). Conversely, in most of Stevie Wonder's stuff I only hear Jamerson, Babbitt, or Watts—not so much the other musicians. Anyone else experience...

I know that bass players like Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten are contemporary bass players that make their own solo albums. But can you give me some more Spotify tips of Bass players bringing out their own music? I'm more a pop/rock kind of person than jazz oriented.

The thread "Last Albums You Listened To In Their Entirety?" got me wondering - how often do people listen to albums (or CDs or Cassettes or 8 tracks) in their entirety? I'm not really looking for an actual percentage, but most of my listening is done by opening iTunes, selecting a CD and...

Well, let's be honest, Gene Simmons is an icon, no two ways about it and many of us picked up a bass thanks to him. Now we can take any Kiss album and find that it always follows a specific formula. 1. The sing along anthem. 2. The ballad. 3. The Gene song. So what is a "Gene song?" Well...

Where can I download all these cool albums for free since I'm a beginner...and can anyone suggest some albums I can start with...
