Music that takes you back

Dr_O · 01-30-2018, 06:37 AM

Bit bored at work, so listening to albums from when I was a teenager which are bringing back some great memories of chilling out with mates, getting stoned and going to gigs etc.

Stuff like
The Offspring - Smash
Prodigy - Experience
Cypress Hill - Black Sunday (used to smoke so much to this...!)
Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power
Sepultura - Roots

Generally anything with loud guitars and shouting.
Music was what defined me and my friends, in that usual melodramatic us vs them phase of growing up.

Just wondered what you guys listened to and have your tastes changed...?

Keep hearing late Genesis / early Phil Collins on the radio

Is it coming back into fashion ?

Loved it when it was current and still do (amongst loads of other stuff)

F30Andy · 01-30-2018, 09:22 AM

I used to be a sucker for "Gangsta Rap"

2Pac
Biggie
Snoop
Dre
NWA
Jay Z
Bone Thugs
Mobb Deep
Easy E
50 Cent (Only his early stuff)
DMX
Wu Tang
Nas

I don't know if it is because they just dont make it like that anymore or if it is because I have grown up, but I just don't have the same connection with modern music.

I struggle to find any modern music that I like. I think its because it doesn't quite have the same emotional resonance.

Either that, or we are just getting old...

But absolute 80s has so much better stuff on....

I was 16 in 1980 - my first gigs were rock bands like white snake, rainbow, Judas Priest, Motörhead... I then progressed to punk - stranglers, stiff little fingers, then the cure and moved into more mainstream thereafter....

Music is the stuff of memories - good or bad. The cars and drive was the soundtrack to meeting my late wife, simple Minds and don't you forget about me the soundtrack to meeting my first serious girlfriend, John Waite and missing you a reminder of it ending!

Absolute 80s, heart 80s or magic always on in my car!

Quite a huge number of rock songs from 1970's and early '80s.

A group of us used to go to loads of gigs at Newcastle City Hall (a friend worked there and we got great tickets without queuing).

Then there was Alan Robson on metro Radio (Bridges and Saturday Rock show)

A couple have very personal - Led Zeppelin Trampled Under foot, Uriah Heap Gypsy, Rush The Trees,

Maybe not Gansta Rap....... but you can't leave out LL Cool J from those good old days.

I know exactly what you mean. I find it very difficult to find that connection with modern music.

Loved the 90s, rap and RnB era.

6times7 · 01-30-2018, 01:59 PM

Phht - all sorts - one of the best parts of growing up has been discovering music from different eras, and new stuff is still good too

to name a few..

The Cure
The Kinks
The Smiths
The Jam
Blur
Shed 7
Florence & the Machine
Oasis
The Stone Roses
Stereo MC's
Lenny Kravitz
Jurrasic 5
The Pharcyde
Stereophonics
The Who
Pearl Jam
Foo Fighters
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Metallica
Led Zep
Black Sabbath
Oakenfold/Perfecto Fluoro
Leftfield
Dreadzone

Deezer in the car is the way forward.
