Patensie Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 Crowded House are a rock band formed in Melbourne, Australia, in 1985. The founding members were New Zealander Neil Finn (vocalist, guitarist, primary songwriter) and Australians Paul Hester (drums) and Nick Seymour (bass). Later band members included Neil Finn's brother, Tim Finn, and Americans Mark Hart and Matt Sherrod.[1][2]NZ: primary songwriter, lead vocals & guitar = the guy who carries the band. Then his boet joined as well. Nobody cares about the drummer and bass, they might as well have been session artists
Sidersky Posted November 1, 2018 Posted November 1, 2018 Neil Finn is in Fleetwood MAc nowI think it's just a one off gig for this tour, same as Mike Campbell. Campbell I get, as the Heartbreakers and Stevie Nicks were close and appeared on stage together many times. Not sure how Neil got the invite though.

mecheng89 Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Neil Finn is in Fleetwood MAc nowListened to Rumours just the other day. Can't quite understand what all the fuss was about on this album but the music is great. It's a miracle this album was made at all.
MTBeer Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Had a musical background, starting with Recorder, Piano, Guitar. Sucked at most of them, because I hated having to practice. Did percussion in high school, playing snare in the marching band, and percussion in the regional youth orchestra my whole high-school carreer. Hate the 80's there are some stuff listenable, but in general i think it's ***. Grew up grunge, which means my taste is hard rock, cant say alternative, because that genre changed a lot the last couple of years. I listen to trance/ deep trance. Mainly above & beyond, and their Anjuna artists. Anyone who says Electronic music takes no talent whatsoever, is probably referring to "Barbie Girl" and other pop madness. I cannot listen to 5 minutes of radio, Call me old, but the crud the kids listen to these days ... I dont know anymore.... Some faves: ChevelleJack WhiteHighly SuspectMiddle Class RutWolf Alice10 YearsLinkin ParkStaindAudio SlaveChris Cornelletc. Recenlty Really like the live stuff on youtube from corey taylor. it's an amazing thing, music. nooit bru', 80's music is awesome.

kosmonooit Posted November 2, 2018 Author Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" is way too loaded with the 70's for me to listen to, although generally regarded as a classic, sweet melodies, Stevie Nicks vocals are great. Was played to death and back, everywhere. Music memories are almost always set in a context - the context of the above for me in the 70's was essentially a lost youth. Think BJ Vorster, Steve Biko's death, June 16 uprisings, racism beamed down to you in every direction, Military call ups, very confusing .... since my black soul was trapped in a white mans' body. Now if we had mountain biking back in those days, things might have been different. I was into cycling but all that prevailing roadie culture was not my thing. Edited November 2, 2018 by kosmonooit

Awesome Christine McVie's voice and, of course, Lindsay Buckingham's guitar.
IceCreamMan Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Listened to Rumours just the other day. Can't quite understand what all the fuss was about on this album but the music is great. It's a miracle this album was made at all. I watched a documentary on the making of Rumours a few years ago, it’s on YouTube by the way. Man oh man, as you point out it’s a miracle it was completed at all. After watching the doc I listened to the album with this new insight, it really became a completely different experience after that. The chain still has my favorite bass line of all time. Would love to see em live, but money becomes tight with all the bands and festivals here.
