All around '93-'94, NIN broke out, I Mother Earth broke out with, "Not Quite Sonic," and many more from, Dig. Seems like, Counting Crows came out with, "Mr. Jones." Marilyn Manson was on the verge, I think it may have been '96 with, "Beautiful People." Tool, "Sober." And, Stabbing Westward with, "Ungod." Some others were, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, others in the late '80s early '90s. Was a great time.

... sprinkle in a bit of Nine Inch Nails...

A slightly more rockin creed? I don’t see it. And I say this with all due respect.

Listening to this music today, it feels like a 100 years ago. Remember when bands like this were everywhere? An abundance of great bands simering just under the thin line of breaking through big time. So many you did not have time to listen to them all. And now, today, you search your ass of just to find one new band with just an inch of being the real thing - and just not a bunch of influencers posing as musicians. Damn, I hate what the "music biz" has become, (which is: there is no music biz anymore, it's just one thousand people uploading shit to Spotify, Tidal etc. every day without any kind of gate keeping or talent search).

The 80s are back baby! 🤘😝🤘

As discussed in another thread, I had a surprise chance to find out, though I didn't really put it through its paces:

It's odd it was posted for $5000 like the person who said Shishkov would build a new one or a used one would go for $5000-$5500 on the post about the 2007 Red Flame Maple Top Standard that sold for $7500.

Beatles "Something New".

I remember my father remarking that he didn't know how bad he felt, because it happened so slowly. He was a physician. Glad you recovered and are back to work. I'm sure they're going to keep an eye on you going forward. Don't be a stranger. This is a good place.

Glad you came out better than when you went in. Thanks for letting the rest of us learn from your experience!

Holy hell that's scary. Nice catch! First, buy a lottery ticket, then retire. Even if you don't win, you win.

Whoah! Glad to hear you’re on top of things - this could have been SO much worse. Great timing…

Not been on here a while. I dunno why but my subscription emails stopped coming to my inbox! Anyways, I had a couple of heart scares at work in January then a heart attack at the end of February. On my third visit to tyhe local hospital (Winchestrer, ON) after for checks they decided to keep me overnight then shipped me over to the Ottawa Heart Institute. Good job they did: here's me expecting a stent or 2 and the surgeon comes to see me and says well mister: you ain't going home just yet! We gotta cut you open and fix them pipes (I'm paraphrasing). Turns out, my coronary arteries were between 50% and 95% blocked in 9 areas! I was one big heart attack away from dying. Anyways, I had a triple heart bypass on March 4th 2026. Everything went well. I started back at work at FedEx last week. I'm easily lifting 75-100 pounds and I never felt better in 30 years. Get your blood pressure checked regularly and keep a tight rein on your cholesterol! Also, my heart disease was hereditary and I never even knew I was ill so bear that in mind too. Get checked!!!

Titebond if it's wood to wood!

This is not my first album but the most memorable from back in the day.

Now, we're talkin'...

Plays like Butters?

Birds of a feather, different genres I may have bought Jones' greatest hits first. It was released in 1960 (when I was 10) but Homer & Jethro's anthology was a 1958 release.

Ben and Matt were the Kings of The Dark Pocket, a groove so heavy, it moved the ground! Their pits were FUN!

I think a new album is coming out, I very recently happened to see the Trace Elliot bass amp that was loaned to them, and used on much of the new 'record'. I remember (if it's correct...) walking around downtown Seattle way back in the 90s and they were playing in small club near Pioneer square, too packed to get in, but you could hear some of the muffled/garbled on the street

I had both Vol 1 and Vol 2 of those. Sold them when I collected the Sab catalogue.

SoundGarden put on a show in Sioux Falls at a brand new Washington Pavillion. They had the crowd bouncing so hard the Balcony started to give way. Now that a Rocking Band!!!
