I thought this was supposed to be the most insane, technical guitar solo of all time, but a fucking child can play it?

Is Eddie Van Halen an overrated hack?

Eruption is actually pretty easy. You can learn it really a few minutes because it's essentially alternating finger-taps. Van Halen always used it as a warm-up exercise and the record producer guys or whatever thought it was cool so they out it in the album.

I mean it could be, I've only listened to the first two, thinking The Seer was pretty good and To Be Kind was amazing. I just wanted to know why some considered a big step down, or why some people prefer it.

They don't have anything in common. One is big beat from the UK and the other is House from France.

You might as well post a picture of Oasis and say "better than Stereolab."

Well yeah, Experience is one of the greatest dance albums ever made
Although it's not really fair comparing a breakbeat hardcore album with a French house act

Is music school even worth it? The idea of being able to make a good number of connections and having a good excuse to move to a city is nice, but it seems way to fucking expensive for something you could essentially learn on your own.

You're basically paying to be surrounded by the best musicians in the country and for the connections

It will improve you as a musician much faster than anything else

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway [Atco, 1974]

I wanted to call this the most readable album since Quadrophenia, but it's only the wordiest--two inner sleeves covered with lyrics and a double-fold that's all small-type libretto. The apparent subject is the symbolic quest of a Puerto Rican hood/street kid/graffiti artist named Rael, but the songs neither shine by themselves nor suggest any thematic insight I'm eager to pursue. For art-rock, though, it's listenable, from Eno treatments to a hook that goes (I'm humming) "on Braw-aw-aw-aw-aw-aw-dway." B-
