The Smashing Tunes Thread (Part 1)

Farmers seething. Farmer - You overdo the music shite. Spare us.

I donā€™t believe in God farmer, so the answer to your first question is no.

sorry kev, i generally agree with you, but music is about what generates emotions in people and different people like different things

farmer goes out and tries various different types of music to see what he likes, and itā€™s clearly his passion, the thread is about people putting up music they like, and itā€™s all going to be very different or this thread would consist only of the topp 100 songs from rolling stone.

the thread encourages people to listen to new music and for that i say well done to all :clap: you even said that the film thread had given you a few films to look at and you should be adopting a similar approach here

i have to say that iā€™m fairly underwhelmed with some of farmers stuff, but then again, he has put me onto some fine music that i would have never listened to

mind you, i enjoy calling farmer a music snob as much as the next man

anyway back to the music

One of the most overlooked and underrated musicians out there, with probably his best number.

Julian Cope - Safesurfer

Will Oldham as Palace Music - Agnes Queen of Sorrow

What do you think of their new album Hannibal?

To be honest T, Iā€™m not that familiar with their wrok. That song was on an Uncut compilation from a few years back. Music influenced by The Band, it was one of the standout tracks on it. Have always meant to get some of their stuff, any particular albums you would recommend?
