    we will look back one day and revere at how truly legendary TINY DESK was. It hope it last for long enough for my kids to experience this mastery. Thank You BOB and all the musicians that have blessed us.

    Why oh why are his studio albums so GODDAMN OVERPRODUCED? For the love of god, let silence into the breaks and let his words, bridges, and melodies hang in the air the way they were meant to...

    • @aborggren4113
      @aborggren4113 6 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Indeed, watched his live performances on a popular tv show here in Sweden which was incredible and then I listened to his recordings on Spotify and was quite disappointed, something with the studio production that takes away his magic.

    • @tytmoothare
      @tytmoothare 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Its common.. a shame yeah. But just accept. Matt Andersen also have overproduced records. I also like the naked, dynamic recordings with lot of air/silence

    Albin Lee Melancholy. Was looking for the clip of him introducing his mum at his family home. Stumbled on this. What an authentic man, I was singing along with Bloodshot. Then he mentioned the quip about the BBC. I chuckled. Will the stars line up so I get to Gothenburg on 6th Dec? I blinkin' hope so. Huge fan, HUGE!

      Have you heard the "quarantaine sessions"-covers he's been putting out recently? Not saying they sound exactly like this, but a bit different than his albums. I've really loved them, and enjoyed seeing which songs he picks to cover.
