garth really is a wizard, so unbelievable

the slower stuff on brown album particularly blows me away. night they drove dixie down and unfaithful servant are classics

 

The Brown Album is obviously full of emotionally whopping moments, but Manuel's delivery of "rainmaker, can you hear the call? Please let these crops grow tall" in King Harvest is just A1. Truly paints a vivid picture of Robbie's songwriting with how pained the delivery is.

 

dankos debut has some cool stuff on it, not super consistent but when its good its very good

hit robertsons too to which ive learned i dont really like the guys voice. hearing him on a song with bono in his prime only further emphasized that more but thats unfair for anyone to stand aside lol

excited to see what garth cooked up on his own

 

last waltz version of it makes no difference is unreal. garth kills that sax outro

 

truly a+ stuff

 

Marty holding that one shot on Rick when he starts singing "without your love, I have nothing at all" stirs the soul every damn time. Regardless of how much of the vocal was overdubbed, it doesn't matter.



And yeah, Garth appearing out of thin air from out of frame really might be the highlight of the entire movie haha.

 

lmao its so magical, and yea overdubbing aside rick particularly sounds goddamn amazing in the movie. i swear i think about his harms on dont do it daily

 

The fact that Levon is the only one who refused to dub his playing or singing makes that legendary performance of Dixie—the last one ever, too!—all the more legendary.

 

did not know that, very cool. love levon on up on cripple creek too from that performance, really emphasizes the way his singing and drumming almost become one interlocked entity

 

you have spread this over to me because this absolutely kills me every time i hear it now lmao

 

unfaithful servant and rockin chair are both goddamn incredible, both songs fit rick and richard so perfectly
