Uh, that would be exactly why I posted their album. Figured someone might want to hear some of the tunes, instead of just talking about them.

And I am not a dude.

Jackie Blue:
I call everyone "dude" and the mediaf!re thread is right over there.

(Why would a girl pick a screen name that's a male character in a movie?)

RedLion:
Maybe because she likes the character?

You can kind of be a jerk sometimes, Jackie

Jackie Blue:
Of all the "can be kind of a jerk sometimes" people on the music forum, I'm pretty sure I'm not even in the Top 5.   :wink:

Kind of an ironic question from someone whose screen name is a female character in a song...Before this gets out of hand, however, let me state emphatically that I am not a chick. By saying I was not a dude, I only meant dude in this sense.

Either way, Jackie Blue, I bow my single-digit-post-count n00bness to your four-figure bad-assedness. Anyone with an obscure Rickie Lee Jones reference below their avatar is a friend of mine. Meanwhile, back on-topic (sort-of):



In 1989, Dee Dee Ramone, he of the Greatest Band Ever, attempted to make a rap album, but he combined it with rock, and coined the term "rap-n-roll" to describe it. Thus, he was at least indirectly responsible for spawning such later abominations as Limp Bizkit and Korn. But none of those bands were worse than Dee Dee's album, released under the band name "Dee Dee King" and considered by many to be the worst album ever made. Here's a snippet from his press packet:


--- Quote ---The proof is on dazzling display on Standing In The Spotlight, Dee Dee King's debut album on Sire Records. One of the most upfront, exciting, and explosively entertaining entries so far this year. What began to take shape is a sound Dee Dee called "Rap In' Roll." The sound had to be there," he continues, "but in rap, the image can be just as important. I went out and bought the sweatsuits and Adidas sneakers, but it didn't feel right. So I mixed my own style with what the other rappers were wearing. I spent a lot of time getting just the right jewelry -- the best I could find -- and mixed it with my traditional Converse hi-top sneakers." The end result resembles a modern day hip-hop James Dean look, with which Dee Dee feels very comfortable. "

I could try to explain its badness, but you just have to listen to it. (Sorry if my posting this link here offends anyone's delicate, 4000-post  sensibilities... :wink: )
