Ok. So You found it.
Good for you!
Sorry to say there are NOT that much here yet 'cause
its like not ready OK?!
Maybe we could put some pics of naked people here
for U, but what good would it do us?
So why don't we just start by listing them and
later when we've got plenty, order them in some clever spreadsheet or whatever?
Music we love to love
(We haven't listed them in any particular order so hold your horses....)First of all, there's no bad music. They are just more or less right for you in the mood you're in for the moment.
It's not a surprise that all the music in the "Generally unbelievable good artists/bands" section is old.
That's partly because it takes time to learn to appreciate good music. also it's a fact that most songs that you love directly, -you forget within a summer. Then there's the coolness factor. What if you rate a album to fit in the section of "Generally unbelievable good artists/bands" and you find you hate it before the summers gone. Not just that, everybody else hate the bad to. Do YOU wanna be the one who say to a trillion of internetusers that you LOVE them? Huh? Don't think so!Mini index:

The Hotel California, Desperado or The Sad Cafe. (Gold!)

Highway to hell, Back in Black, or, or, or
The toughest hardrock band in the world. Everything else seems like rock wanna bees when AC starts to play.
- Dire Straits
The song Sultans of Swing is great, so is the first four albums. Try either one and wonder over that guitar.
- Don Henley
One of the golden voices in Eagles. Try out You don't know me at all, that's really a song for ya.
- Ulf Lundell
A Swedish artist that's is something really special. We will write more about him on a special section later... Well that's if our now slumbering fan will take his enormously huge thumb out of his obviously NOT so large butt (that's good though, cause if it was huge I would suspect him of being a shitpacker) and do some work in this matter. Se also below.
Album/Artist/Year Info
- Bat Out of Hell/ Meatloaf-Jim Steinmann/ 1977
The accomplishment of making this album will forever put both Meatloaf, (singer) and Jim Steinmann (composer) on the pedestal of world class artists of all categories.
Jim is not the artist, but as he always was quite irritated of not getting recognized enough (that's the problem for composers, right?) beside Meatloaf, I salute him anyway and I think that he's the headline worth.Jim was the brain and Meatloaf the the muscles. Together they created an album that will live forever (and that's not just me saying so). The music on this album is not comparable to any other I know of. It's kind of a rock opera. But that context is not there for the listener to read/hear but to create in his mind while listening to platinum selling songs like Bat Out Of Hell, Heaven Can Wait, You Took the Words Right Out Of My Mouth and For Crying Out Loud.
The Only sad part of this album (part from not making a second one just as good) is the quality of the recording. It is probably due to the fact that it's a lot of instruments, a lot of volume and a LOT of Meatloaf cranked on to that thin vinyl... Never the less, if You ever, EVER, gonna try out some new music and have missed (is that at all possible?) this album, then INVEST into this piece of genius music.
But You have to give it a whole evening at least, preferably in headphones. When I first heard it I liked one song but thought that the rest sucked pretty hard. Then Gert, my brother in law (now sadly deceased) who is mostly responsible of my interest in music outside the normal boundaries, said; "If it's too easy to listen to at once -you will get tired of it pretty soon, give it some time".
I did. I gave it a whole night. I was like 11-12 and I spent the whole night in the living room with his old (but good) Pioneer headphones on, pounding Meatloaf into my brain while reading the lyrics. Over and over again. I missed school the next morning which my sister did NOT like. But it was my best spent 9 hours related to music ever. Thanks Gert! (CLS)
- The Eagles/The Eagles/1976
This album's been winning the most ever wanted list and the best album in history and the most ever sold album on a wednesday and the superduper best album ever in the universe -like over and over again in various radio shows lists and shows. That's because that's what it is.
Makes U wonder if Felder & Henley the 2 Don's, Glen Frey, Joe Walsh and Randy Meisner knew what they where doing when they wrote it?
They created history with the Hotel California album. It's still unbeatable when it comes to whole albums.
On the album fast and slow songs makes a blend that throws U between slow mindrubbers like the last resort (which is one of my favorites) to steaming Victim of Love which is so darn good that i'm just out of words.
What the heck, U who reads this already know it...
- All of AC/DC's Albums
I'm just too much of a fan to choose one, I'll let somebody else do it later, maybe.
Ultimate hitsReally really good songs/albums
Ultimate Hit/Artist/Album/Year/Info
- Bat Out Of Hell/ Meatloaf/Bat Out Of Hell/1977
Probably the best song in history! Listen, read the text (all fans knows the lyrics and solos) and try to remember to breathe! (You will lose your breath during the song, that's a promise or else U are deaf!) (CLS)
- The last resort/ The Eagles/The Eagles/1976
I will write something, I will.
- Shot down in flames/ Ac/Dc
Can U find something that rocks this good with so few words, buy it! (CLS)
- Av himlen sänd/Ulf Lundell
Att Ulf Lundell är underskattad i musiksammanhang är ett understatement. Att han är Rockpoeten med stort U är givet för alla som till exempel har hört denna låt. Ledsen LeMark, Mauro och allt vad Ni heter, visst Ni är bra, till och med mycket bra, men mot Uffe står Ni Er platt. Texter som från denna namnkunniga skara låter vackra, tänkvärda och djupa blir som bleka plattityder mot Ulfs poetiska beskrivningar av människor, världen och känslor av alla de slag. Han blir givetvis inte poet sitt eget land än på många år, men om 200 år är han erkänd i stil med Bellman. Lätt! (CLS)
Really really good song/album /Artist/Year/Info
- Album: Upfront/John Miles/1993
A slow rock melodic album with a great vocal. Songs that passed the millennium without a bug. He's been around for years and years. The album I've (CLS) got is great but I just cant seem to get anything else "new" from the man. Is he dead? Leif says that he's got them but I wonder... (I know where you live)
- Album: The Law/ The Law
A slow rock-country-rock album that is very good, holds water when you sip on a well tempered whisky after a good party. Has been sold in Stockholm for years as a "trash/dime" record. The singer is exceptional- Paul Rodgers. Listen to: For A Little Ride, Laying Down The Law, Stone (CLS)Interesting artists/bands that we wanna know more about
(Like where to buy a CD's etc. If You got the know-how, contact us below.)
Artist/Album we've got/Info
- John Schwabb/Crack Of Dawn
Some strange mixture of country and rock ballads. It works but the cover looks silly and the name isn't all that "catchy". If the price was right I think I dare to try another album also. (CLS)
- She Stole My beer/?
This is an Australian band I think. Very interesting and "happy" songs with a lot of unusual instruments and sounds. Have tried to locate them on the web but NO. (CLS)
- John Miles
Se above in Really really good albums.. Have tried the web and found old recordings that where expensive but what about the new ones?
- The Law
