For those who don't know what music to download!

Ok this is for those of us who will be sitting at iTunes or whatever you use to download music, legally of course, and just can't bloody figure out what to download! Write in your suggestions and must haves! Please try and be more specific than "The Beatles." Make it like The Beatles White album or something like that. Make sense? Heres my top picks since I'm a rock fan!


Kid Rock - Rock n Roll Jesus
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon (everyone NEEDS THIS!!!)
Warrant - Cherry Pie
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Hinder - Extreme Behavior

Well theres a taste of my library

George Strait- "Marina del ray"
Tom McGraw- "Live like you were dyin'"
Chicago- "If you leave me now"
Boston- "More than a feeling"
Beach Boys- "Wouldn't it be nice"
Otis Redding- "Dreams"
Frank Sinatra- "My Way"
The Spinners- "Could it be I'm falling in love"
Eel- "Beautiful day"
Ahmad- "Back in the day"
Notorius B.I.G.- "Juicy"
Lupe Fiasco- "Superstar"
Wyclef Jean- "Sweetest Girl"
Bob Marley- "Trenchtown Rock"
Bush- "Glycerine"
Johnny Cash- "Hurt"
Spoon- "I summon you"
Sublime- "Santaria"
O.A.R.- "About Mr. Brown"

You better have read that shit because I took some time to think. If I was stuck on an island those songs would be the ones I would want to be able to hear.

OK, no obvious shit from me, here's some stuff you should try, I'll break it down into two categories:

1) Good rock and roll you should be listening to, but aren't...

Radiobirdman: "Aloha Steve and Danno"
the Fluid: "Is It Day I'm Seeing?"
Aphrodite's Child: "The Four Horsemen"
the MC5: "Call Me Animal"
the Go: "Summer Sun Blues"
Goatsnake: "Innocent"
Fu Manchu: "Mongoose"

2) Grow some balls and listen to this music you fucking homos...

Arab On Radar: "My Mind Is A Muffler"
Big Black: "Ergot"
Leviathan: "Sardoniscorn"
Swans: "New Mind"
Pig Destroyer "Immune To Life"
ANTiSEEN: "Fuck The Kids"
Mayhem: "Freezing Moon"
AIDS Wolf: "Chinese Roulette"
Krieg: "End Of Time"
An Albatross: "I Am The Laser Viking"

Good Album, I like that funky shit.

For some suggestions I'd say..

Grinspoon - New Detention
Cog - The New Normal
Tool - 10000 Days
Disturbed - The Sickness
Muse - Black Holes & Revelations
Helmet - Size Matters
Cartoon - Ovine/Bovine
Eagles - Best Of

Looks like some good music in here. I'll have to check some of that shit out on "itunes".

I suggest you download the collected works of Bob Dylan.

Sure, his 193u4u18u1o songs will cost you like a grand on iTunes, but it's worth it.

I both agree and disagree with EL here.
Download "Shelter From The Storm" by Dylan, if you don't find it to be downright amazing, skip Dylan and go back to High School Musical.

Here's where I disagree...don't download his stuff, buy his CDs, that way you get all the good liner notes and stuff, it's well worth it.
Then again, I'm a big old music snob who likes to learn every little thing about each album.
"Tangled up In Blue" is another good one, and "Hurricane" is probably my favorite by Dylan, for right now...

Sorry, I just have to be a dick sometimes.

Oh, hey, everything on my lists is single songs, so you can see if you like the band or not. Like, you don't want to download an entire Arab On Radar album, just to find out that you can't stand how fucked up and weird it is.

Love these kinds of lists - introduces you to new music and allows you to release your inner nerd ....

These are gonna mostly be rock and metal, but there are a few surprises...

Albums :

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Black Grape - It's Great When You're Straight, Yeah
Idlewild - Warnings/Promises
Kerbdog - On The Turn
Therapy? - Troublegum
Jim Jeffries - Hellbound (comedy album)
Snow Patrol - When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up
Vega4 - You and Others
James Dean Bradfield - The Great Western
Cherry Ghost - Thirst for Romance
David Bowie - Low
Ginger - Valor de Corazon
Wildhearts - Earth Vs
Placebo - Placebo
Pitchshifter - www. pitchshifter. com
Anthrax - Sound of White Noise
Slayer - Reign in Blood
The Beautiful South - Blue is the Colour
This is Menace - No End in Sight
Faithless - Reverence
Beastie Boys - Ill Communication

I would keep going, but I get the feeling I probably couldn't stop .....

Awesome suggestion I own almost all of his 50+ albums on CD, great variety over the years

Lets go back even further to the godfather of it all, jimmie rodgers... train whistle blues, blue yodel number 1

But if I had to recommend some Bob Dylan songs here's a few:

Like A Rolling Stone (of course)
Mississippi
Not Dark Yet
Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts
Girl From The North Country , featuring Johnny Cash
Lay, Lady, Lay
Subterranean Homesick Blues
The Times They Are A-Changin'
Tangled Up In Blue
Spanish Harlem Incident

To name a few....I could go on forever

I am a live music fan, so here are a few of my favs..If you are a fan of 70's rock ( I mean ROCK , not Journey, and R E O Speedwagon ) Deep Purple: Made In Japan, IMO the best live rock album ever, Humble Pie: Rockin' the Filmore, another GREAT live album. B B King: Live at the Regal, great old blues stuff. Robin Trowers King Biscuit live album. Mountain: Flowers of Evil, 1 side is live, and it is awesome.
