Bands/artists you've never tired of

Post by muppet hi fi »

So who have you never grown tired of, even for brief intervals, since you first discovered them - through all life's ups and downs, whims and whams, slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, etc.?

Only three I can think of for me: The Clash, the Screaming Blue Messiahs (both whom I followed since their debuts were released) and Otis Redding (who I loved since I was a wee nipper, thanks to seven siblings vast LP collections, but didn't really get totally geeked on til the mid-'90s).

So who for youse all have been consistently 'music for all seasons'?

Oh I got a little burnt out on her in the late '80s - too grind-core and death metal for what I was feeling then for a while.

Now Barbra Streisand - I can listen to her rain or shine, year in year out! ;)

No I hate her. I only like the one my phone decided for me.

Also, there's actually this little band called The Clash that even the internet hasn't been able to completely ruin for me, so I reckon they'll be with me for the rest of my days.

Gotta admit, Babs and her sister's latest, 'For Lovers Only: A Tribute to Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music', is a pretty cool comeback album.

Yep, they've got something for every mood and life experience. Even some Barbra Streisand ('Spirit of St. Louis') and Barbara Streisland ("Mensforth Hill").
