Ha! No, you goof! I meant Johnny Lee Hooker. You gave me a good laugh at myself for not being too clear.

since i dived into music theory, there’s no guilty pleasures for me anymore.
if something’s done and works well, i have to do some research, period.

Now imagine me doing the „Robot“ move on the dancefloor after to much booze :sunglasses:

Couldn’t agree more. Give me melodic chords, structure and harmonies any day over single key arp heavy noodlings!

Nostalgia for teenage years?
Bombastic production?
Can still recite every cringe-worthy line?

Yes!

Scraping Foetus Off The Wheel: “Descent Into The Inferno”.
At least it was meant to be funny.

I tend to agree and I’ve learned to appreciate a lot of music I wouldn’t have listened to a few years ago. Still, not everything ages equally well and sometimes songs lose their appeal to me when they’re played up and down in every student flatshare between here and Timbuktu.

I only like the beginning of this Super Discount “You” I heard at the radio


it remembering Indra, Paula Abdul
 and I like younger the straight up from Paula Abdul

Etienne de CrĂ©cy’s follow up efforts to the original Super Discount and his album Tempovision were such a huge let down to me. Both of the above were part of the soundtrack of my formative years for such a long time and I keep going back every now and again, everything he did subsequently didn’t work for me at all.

Yes but I would not post “Prix choc” or St-Germain “alabama blues (1965 version)” which are from my favorite tracks-albums ever in a guilty pleasure thread :slight_smile:

Fully agreed with you thought

I tried to explain that above. Yes, St. Germain was great at the time and in a way opened my ears for a whole new universe of music. Unfortunately, their stuff was so ubiquitous for a while, that it got damaged for me. I know, strange logic and probably a bit elitist, but once something has lost every last bit of obscurity, in my book it becomes material for the “Guilty Pleasures” thread.

No reason to be embarrassed about that! Would have loved to catch Napalm Death back in their early days.

Haevn’t heard that, really interesting but I can totally see the thread there.

Here are a few that I haven’t been able to get enough of lately, or explain why



Originally heard this from a Hell Interface/Boards Of Canada remix going around that I really liked, and eventually just got into the original. Not as good as Trapped, but still really solid.

It’s listening to tracks like these that make my wife think I’m a loser.

I don’t even feel guilty
