August 21, 200917 yr comment_268557 I have had this concept swirling around in my head since I saw the semi-drunk philodox post it. These are a few of the songs that bubbled up from the depths without too much analysis. For me, they fit the criteria. * The Who -- Behind Blue Eyes and My Generation and Sparks * U2 -- I Will Follow * Beck -- Loser * The Beatles -- Norwegian Wood and Day in the Life * Led Zeppelin -- Black Dog and Over the Hills and Far Away * The Kinks -- You Really Got Me and Waterloo Sunset * The Clash -- London Calling and Magnificent Seven * English Beat -- Mirror in the Bathroom * Muddy Waters -- Good Mornin Little School Girl * Miles Davis -- So What * Ornette Coleman -- Lonely Woman * Oliver Nelson -- Stolen Moments * Bill Evans -- Waltz for Debby * John Coltrane -- Chasin the Trane * Louis Armstrong -- What a Wonderful World Sheesh, that seems weird to just pick those, but all of them are perfect in their own way for me.

August 25, 200917 yr comment_269866 John Palumbo/Crack the Sky, "Too Cold to be Cool" Mike Oldfield, "The Trap" -- b-side that could have been an out-take from the wonderful Killing Fields. An exercise in dissonance, to be sure, but the most beautiful exercise ever executed. Edited August 27, 200917 yr by Dusty Chalk Report
