Title: I Just Wasn't Made for These Times (Album) Post by: nobody on September 28, 2009, 09:16:16 PM Anyone else like this album or soundtrack or whatever it is as much as me? I prefer the singers on it to Brian's current band and I like the arrangement of all the songs. It has a warm sound to it, IMO. Brian's voice also has that edge still like on Orange Crate Art (an album I also enjoy). In fact, in many places, Brian's voice is GREAT here. Best I've ever heard it sounding, as good as he's ever sounded.
(http://i44.tinypic.com/15dnte8.jpg) Some of these performances of the songs are my favorite non-album performances. Like "The Warmth of the Sun". The electric and acoustic guitars sound great. Plus, the singers have such a full, deep blend. Beautiful. Brian sounds present, if you know what I mean. What's the story behind this album, anyway? I've seen the documentary. How'd they get Brian to do such a great selection of songs? Apart from "Do It Again", maybe, there's no tracks that you'd expect to be there. "Wonderful" is amazing here. Better than BWPS' version. Who enjoys Orange Crate Art? I think of it as old man music, don't you? I suppose it's only fitting for me to listen to then. Van Dyke matured well, he's a beautiful man, isn't he? I want to kiss his cheek.

As for IJWMFTT, I agree. It is a great underproduced and beautiful album. Love and Mercy is my favorite on there. The documentary is the best of him IMO.

He sounded like a muppet. I thought the reviews section was where people pretended to be magazine writers? Boring. Pretentious. Two and a half stars. That kind of sh*t. Title: Re: I Just Wasn't Made for These Times (Album) Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on September 28, 2009, 11:28:30 PM Wow...so basically, you're calling everyone's opinions in that section, boring pretentious sh*t?
Wow. I think I'm going to close this now. Consider this a warning. |
