before i start, shush @Tim
Thanks to @MajorRage and his Tool concert post, i have been back listening to these motherfuckers hard out. Fuck this band absolutely rules. It's certainly not a unique or interesting thing to say as a white guy in his mid-40s, but Tool are my favourite band of all time
Aenima is a fucking masterpiece, packed with amazing tracks. And it occured to me listening yesterday, this track is the blueprint of their later work. Long, intricate, melodic. The drumming all through, but especially at the back end, is fucking insane. Carey is the master.

Title track, high energy soul funk classic about a special lady of the night.
Another title track, this record predates Byrd’s soul-funk period (above), it’s something of a transition album, but the propulsion and deep groove rhythm on this masterpiece is top drawer and never fails to get my ass moving. Incredible musicianship and soloing.

Yeah I thought of it later and as you’d already replied I had to add it.
Awkward ferning.
Stevie did some of the best music ever but also more than his fair share of crap in my opinion. The song I quoted is awful, karaoke cheesy shit.
I actually don’t like Higher Ground or Superstition much either.
But Sir Duke, Do I do, That Girl, Don’t Worry about a thing and My Cherie Amour amongst others are absolutely beautiful songs.
