I think STP’s catalog holds up incredibly well.Vitalogist wrote:There was a time when I resisted STP because I thought they were grunge band wagoners. Part of me still thinks that, but it’s hard to deny they have some great tunes, and some solid albums.
i want it too, but i cant start the multiple copies of albums game.tragabigzanda wrote:Direct master from the original tapes, and pressed at 45 RPM. Instant pre-order for me, despite the price tag.

Thanks for recommending this. What an incredibly musically knowledgeable and humble guy. Loved hearing him talk about Henry Mancini and Antonio Carlos Jobim - that really plays out in STP’s music in so many ways.daft twat wrote:Yeswease wrote:Is this the Beato interview?daft twat wrote:I did.

Thanks. It’s popped up for me a few times. I’ll give it a listen.daft twat wrote:Yeswease wrote:Is this the Beato interview?daft twat wrote:I did.

Started it last night. I don’t know what it is about Beato, but I just don’t think I like him. Is he pompous? It’s like he constantly tries to impress people with knowing all these fucked up oddball jazz chords. I just don’t dig the guy’s vibe. But at the same time, I DO dig a lot of the people he interviews and find something new about almost all of them when watching his interviews. It’s a very strange dynamic.wease wrote:Thanks.

I don't find him pompous for knowing music theory and interviewing musicians through that lens; I wish more interviewers were like him in that regard. I always come away from his interviews feeling excited about the music of whoever it is he's interviewing. He says some eye-roll stuff sometimes but his theory knowledge is a strength, IMO, not a weakness.wease wrote:Started it last night.

i can see why people would find that approach off-putting and kinda snobby. you can discuss song craft w/o trying to impress people with your musical knowledge. as someone who's completely self-taught and can play by ear at this point, i really enjoy hearing people talk about music theory. i usually end up reading a bunch of stuff afterwards about things they talked about i'm not familiar with.Kevin Davis wrote:I don't find him pompous for knowing music theory and interviewing musicians through that lens; I wish more interviewers were like him in that regard.
