Name your lame duck artist........

Grateful Dead - Didn't know who these guys were when I first came to the US then all these people started telling me how "far out" and "right on" they were. I finally said "righteous brother" and went out and bought Skeletons in the Closet, gave it one listen and tossed it in the closet.

I forgot to also mention Whitesnake.

Now here is a guy with a lot of releases many of you may have jumped around to back in the day. Here is a list of some of those releases:

DISCO SWEAT

IN THE MOOD TO LOSE

SUPER SWEATIN

BOOGIE DOWN THE POUNDS

NO IFS AND BUTTS

TONIN TO THE OLDIES

TOTALLY TONIN

COUNTRY CARDIO

Time to don your leopard-skin leotards and leggings and dig out your old tapes guys - IIIIITTTSSSS.............RICHARD SIMMONS !

Prefer the BUNS OF STEEL DVD myself tough.

Darkmoebius, I couldn't agree more. Limp Bizkit's gotta be playing clubs with two dollar covers by now. I haven't even heard the name in 10 years. I've got to give them credit though, they know how stupid the general public is. I think the target market is the 'can't understand morning talk show' segment. I hate the fact that so many talentless people can actually pass themselves off as musicians in some way or another. I blame it on a lack of music education and trailer parks.

The sad truth is, the problem isn't the artists themselves - it's us!

Thomastrouble. Isn't it funny a fat little makeup wearing pansy can make money with a routine like that?

Whitesnake is no worse than all of their peers of the mid 80's. Rotten garble.

I guess there's a market for all sorts of crap, but that's what the majority of people (at least in the U.S.) want to hear. There's a lot of good talent out there, but the majority of Americans prefer total crap. Anyone who watches American Idol is only contributing to this.

Be careful - Richard Simmons is on Audiogon......and he can fight.
