Growing up, I always thought of Led Zep as the greatest band ever. Ofcource, I haven’t had a chance to see em play. I have had a fair share of great shows I got to see, and I think seeing Soundgarden promoting "King Animal" three nights, back to back have been the best I have seen. They just ruled. Really-really-tight and intense. Check this performance of "Slaves and Bulldozers" recorded by the artists den on the same tour.
For a long long long time, I have been wanting to write this post. A post that will list out the music that has been a soundtrack to my life. From the very early days when I used to listen to Nevermind on the Philips “2-in-1” in Bombay, to “OK Computer” and “Under the table and dreaming” on my disc man (that haddi got me) to “Songlines” in my x-Terra or “Kaput” on my current car. These albums have a lot of memories associated with them. They pretty much take me to the time when I first listened to them, each time I listen to them. These albums have meant a lot to me and ya, these are the albums I will carry with me to if I was to get marooned on an island. Since I never got to actually writing the post, I figured I can create a pinboard for it. So here it is (the always work in progress), Soundtrack to my life:
Just read this comment on Roger Federer video on youtube… the commend had 186 likes.
“People need to seriously stop comparing Federer and God. I mean, he’s good, but he’s not Federer…”
I just love this guy! I great up watching each and every match they telecasted in India, reading every article I could and saving every picture I could lay my hands on. Watch him deliver this speech!
Found this tool to stitch pictures together and I am very impressed: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/69699e5a-5c91-4b01-898c-ef012cbb07f7/default.aspx. Give it a try, its called “Image Composite Editor”.
Saw Brad covering Neil Young last week (this video is from the week before though). Loved Stone’s guitar on this.
And then watch Neil Young do it himself!
Another one of my favourite albums of this year: Kaputt by Destroyer.
with Warren Haynes!!!
If he is playing in your town, dont miss him!
I swear one of these days, I am going to memorise every step from this video! So cool!!!
