Ryan Adams

Lets talk about how great Ryan Adams is

[soundless_space]

I do adore Ryan Adams and his music. I think he's an amazing songwriter. And I wonder if I'm the only one that liked the 29 album. I thought it was beautiful.

From what I've heard by him, I only liked So Alive and his cover of Wonderwall.

the two "love is hell" albums were great.

otherwise, i've been kind of bored.

still, great, great albums, those.

[soundless_space]

I think my favourite Ryan Adams album is Rock and Roll.

Yea, they're my favourite too. esp. 'Love is hell' Part 1

But you have to listen to the other albums again (+ with the Cardinals) you may end up not being bored afterall.

I always get ready to rip on this guy, then I remember that I always get him and Liam Lynch confused for some reason.

I've listened to Ryan since he was in Whiskeytown. If you haven't heard them, check out Strangers Almanac and Pnuemonia.

 

Ryan also has a ton of great live shows. You can download some of them at www.ryanadamsarchive.com

I like everything before the Cardinals, really. Gold, Rock and Roll, and Love is Hell are all excellent albums. I think it's good that he's stopped focusing on releasing 10 albums per year. Can't wait to pick up the Willie Nelson CD Tuesday that he wrote.

 

He's posted some new stuff on his website, recently. Punk stuff. He'll occasionaly post an unreleased song.

I thought he was going all BECK-ified on me for a second with his "website song" --"ahh shit, look who got a website" wtf.

Still don't know what thats really all about, in case you havent visited ryan-adams.com: http://ryan-adams.com/RyanAdams.html

get come pick me up, 'cause it's a goodie.

[Shiri]

I'll downloaded it right now

[Ravenous megin-sane]

good.

now take off your shirt

[Shiri]

Haha I like the new adult Meg ;) For some reason I didn't manage to download it yet, stupid EMULE

[Audio of Being]

Gold and Rock and Roll are great albums. But I have found that seeing live is a great and wonderful thing. He just goes off and will just improvise his songs, to no end.

im glad i wasnt the only one that saw the similarities between the two. even ryan's more laid back quiet stuff would work well as a beck song and visa versa.

 

but yeah, that rap song on his website was funny as hell.

 

i dont own any albums of his at the moment. i've been meaning to, but lately im on a wilco-kick and have been busy buying up their catalogue.

 

should i start with whiskeytown? i love the song "avenues"... not sure what album its from.

 

as far as ryan adams songs go, i really like "sylvia plath" and "please don't let me go". "come pick me up" is also good but it's on the elizabethtown OST and i hate that movie and the people in it.

[sockcrotch]

why does ryan adams have his own thread? this is just wrong.

[soundless_space]

How is that wrong? He is a musician. ;)

I think what sockcrotch meant to convey was that it is downright unacceptable for Ryan Adams not to have his own dedicated section on this forum.

[soundless_space]

EDIT: Nevermind. I don't think so.

 

Anyway, I could never get into the stuff with the Cardinals as much as when it was just him solo.

The amazing thing I find is that every genre he does, he does really well. Covering Rock, Punk, Country, etc
