Xann Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 The Third Power - 'Believe' A Hard Psych power trio capable of knocking out a decent melody. From the same Michigan scene as the Stooges and MC5 - sonically there's a little bit of Cream in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Any one else got Bob Dylans new album yet? its called Tempest just giving it its first listen now, **** good man got a bit more life to it than his recent efforts....although I'm sure the old bastard unleashes one or two genuine death rattles during the album but just fights them off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am always suspicious of recent Dylan albums. Will probably end up getting a cheap copy secondhand as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Yeah I know what you mean, even though I dont think they are bad albums I struggle to listen to them in one sitting, too many of the songs you have to write off due to the fact that he is 70+ and is bound to churn out a bit of rubbish this album I would say on first listen is a lot better than his other recent stuff, saying that though once I have listened to it a few times no doubt there will be songs that I skip and never listen to again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted September 12, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted September 12, 2012 I think Dylan's biggest problem is lack of editorial control - the songs are simply too long, on average. Back when he was writing stuff like Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands, It's All Right Ma, Desolation Row, etc. the quality of the writing justified the long songs. But now he write fairly basic, enjoyable folk/blues numbers, usually in 12-bar form - and they would be fine if they were kept as three minute jobs. But he can't seem to stop writing more verses, and they end up 6 to 7 minutes long (or worse), and really start to drag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leemond2008 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 absolutely spot on mooney there is however a 7 minute tribute to John Lennon on the album and its brilliant, uses lots of Lennons lyrics in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
