I can't stand Mitchell. (And to be fair it's not just the music, all subjective, my memories)
Let It Bleed is my #1, #2, #3 Stones album. Exile is OK.
I don't get it...Exile on main Street-Blue
I love to listen to great podcast/interviews with great musicians. Last night i listened to Rick Beato interview Maynard from the great band Tool. Besides being a fantastic conversation, Maynard told Rick the two most influential albums for his music inspiration are Joni Mitchell Blue, and Black Sabbath's first self titled record.
I understand and love Black Sabbaths first record, but I have listened to JM Blue countless times and just don't understand what the hype is. Full disclosure I love female vocalists, and I also love Joni's Court and a Spark. With that said I have heard many musicians rave about Blue. Please enlighten me-what am I missing ?
The other head scratcher for me is Exile on Main Street by the Stones. Again I have heard many musicians rave about this double album. I don't get it... Beggars Banquet-Let it Bleed-Sticky Fingers are so much better in my opinion, but just like Blue, It seems like musicians much prefer Exile on Main Street.
I know its all subjective...but these are two records I have never learned to appreciate. Thoughts ?
@jastralfu Of course there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the (clearly different from a male’s) sound of a female voice. This ain’t athletics where there are many scientifically proven facts that point to irrefutable differences in muscle mass, strength, leaping ability, etc. between males and females. To quote Kurt Cobain, sorry to be so anally PC, but that’s the way I feel.
