I'm pretty dubious how accurate record sales really are to be honest.
Yep. One thing I have learned today is that record sales numbers are really dodgy.
Garth Brooks, FFS , was in the top 5 on most lists.

That and Reggae are just about the only genres I can't stand. In saying that there's occasionally a few decent tracks that pop up.

Yep, they like both kinds of music.

Another rabbit hole.
Classifying bands into a "genre" argument / discussion. Plenty of reggae I like, plenty that I don't. Good track that one you posted though.
The Stranglers are supposed to be punk. Maybe in their philosophy, but the music just aint for me. I like them, but rock/pop really.

Their musicianship is way too good to be punk

Saw that over lockdown and loved it. Being together unchanged as a band for FIFTY ONE years is fucken extraordinary. You forget they did some pretty damn cool stuff in the 70s before their 80s heyday as well.
I knew someone else had mentioned watching the doco but I couldn't remember who. ZZ Top's 1970s albums are definitely their best with Tres Hombres probably at the top.
Dusty Hill is every bit the frontman that Billy Gibbons is and I loved how Frank Beard very bluntly told how he spent his first massive pay check on drugs.
Yeah, I didn't realise his addictions were so bad. The story behind the beards was cool.

Although I must admit I’ve enjoyed this more and more as it’s gone on.
So you under rated him?
If I was to be Mr Serious for a minute - all music is completely subjective.
Except Nickelback and Kid Rock. They are objectively rubbish.

@MajorRage
Hand up for the incorrect comment about 'writing' her own music. She does 'co-write' most of her songs alongside various guns for hire.That's very big of you to lift your view of Adele from zero-credit, to the smallest bit of credit it's possible to give. BTW just to refresh your memory, here is you agreeing with me that he's an over rated musician.
@Crucial said in What are you listening to, right now................:@MajorRage said in What are you listening to, right now................:
Bowie live at Glastonbury tonight.
Has there ever been a more over rated musician?
Musician yes. Artist no.
That Glastonbury set of his is pretty good.
Bowie was always about the whole package rather than just the music.
@Crucial said in What are you listening to, right now................:
OK.
Maybe a list of artists that claim Bowie as inspirational to their career vs the same for Adele?If there is any over rating going on here it is you with Adele.
As I said, feel free to like her music, but it just seems strange when someone raves about a performer like her then disses a popular music legend as over-rated.
Thank you for your approval to like her music - that means a lot to me.
@MN5 said in What are you listening to, right now................:
I agree that he is a great artist ( losing him and especially Prince in quick succession was devastating for music ) but I always find "songwriting" on it's own a tough yardstick cos based on that I'd love Bob Dylan too. I don't, in fact I can't stand him.
Yes, very much so. Dylan is another I throw in the same bucket.

Dylan's overrated because I don't like him
(That's what we all mean if we're honest)

I hate his voice, his songs and the shitty cover versions that otherwise cool artists seem to do.

It's a question. are you able to answer it?
