The B3 Organ is divine in this song!

Oh, Brandon. I know you're not much of a Stevie fan, but many consider Disc 3 the best one of the set. (Save Rhiannon, which I like but many here look down on with disdain due to the plodding piano. Our girl is no Chris on keys, that's for sure.) Anyway, Sleeping Angel, Violet & Blue, Somebody Stand By Me, Reconsider Me - all great, rarer tracks. Give it another shot.


I just had to say that.

aww...thanks!

Everyone I talk to just gives such love to disc 3...but I think I listened to it once and that was all...I HATE the demo of Sweet Girl (It NEEDED the Mac touch) and I don't like the demo of Twisted either. But now that I love Gold and Braid I might listen to some others...

Somebody Stand By Me is a beautiful song...but I'm soooooo used to Faith Hill's version, I just can't get into Stevies. To me, it's just the kind of song that is better fit for a vocalist like Faith.

And oh DEAR LORD let's not talk about that piano version of Rhiannon...

But I will give the others a fresh listen!

Please listen to Sleeping Angel over and over this weekend and tell me on Monday that you don't like it. Won't be possible.

Bugger. I'll have to wait a while then so.

Not that I was going to get going to it before then anyway...

Ok...I'll give it a listen.

But I promise you...I have been known to "shock" with the Stevie songs I hate...and even the ones I like. So I make no promises

I think Thousand Days, Battle of the Dragon, Violet and Blue, The Blue Lamp and Sleeping Angel are the standout tracks on disc 3, with Sleeping Angel being the best.

I think a couple of the demos are ok, I mean, they are demos.

If you don't like Sleeping Angel, I'll put yo ass in front of a firing squad.

None needed.

Off topic: BTW, there isn't a single Christine McVie song I don't like, solo or with FM, whereas there are several Stevie ones. I just don't love any of her song, with a couple of exceptions, the way I love the right-on Stevie ones.

Back on topic: I would really love to go to NOTS one day. Maybe this year.

Those first two in particular. Hell of a CD

EDIT: OK, on re-listening ... those first four in particular!

Hmmm, that is quite interesting.

There are lots of Stevie songs that I don't like. But the ones that I love I really really love!

With Christine there is not a song that I don't like...NOT ONE! Chicken Shack, solo, FM, compilations (ie: roll with me henry)...but where we differ I guess is...I LOVE THEM...LOOOVVVVEEEE them! Meaning I could never love a Stevie song the way I love Don't Stop for instance, or Get Like You Used to Be, or Songbird....

I don't think I would survive at Night of a Thousand Queers Stevies

ITA, although I don't dislike "several" of Stevie's. Chris's songs are good, I like all of them, they just aren't great for me.

I do, however, HATE Thousand Days. It's those horns. I have issues with horns in Stevie tunes (I hate Whole Lotta Trouble too.)

Noo thanks. When I went to "Liza's Back" live opening night on broadway in 2002...(with lots of celebs...I almost wet myself)...a lot of the fans there were dressed like Liza!

Now I LOVE my Liza...but I just don't "get" drag... I want to see the real thing...

Her vocal is ..... there aren't enough words to describe how good it is. Even with that said, "Violet and Blue" is better. Why on earth she didn't hold that sucker for RAL I'll never know. That album would have been so much better with that and "Battle of the Dragon" on it. Too much coke, Kools and brandy for that chick back then, lemme tell ya.

Of course you wouldn't- you'd be spending half the time getting plowed in the men's room. You wouldn't be able to walk at the end of the night, I'm guessing......

I talked to co-worker. There maybe a glimmer of hope.
