> Lindsey Buckingham

For goosebumps on your skin and chills to your marrow, get comfy and pull up the version found on The Dance (1998? / 2000?) DVD of "I'm So Afraid".

While abso-to-the-lutely, the other 4 members of the band are flawless in the gifts they provide, Lindsey just shuts the world down and shows us all what it means to experience and display being human.

Enjoy!

Prince was so good it was ridiculous. The kind of beyond where decades later, you can find room and play in what he was trying to get across -- as it hits you after repeat listens, or not necessarily looking for it, whether in his guitar phrasing or keyboard arrangements. And vocally, he presented avenues and platforms which gave so many of his influences their justice and due.

Thanks for the reminder on the Gap Band, as well. Man, you weren't kidding: Early In The Morning has the kind of inescapable infectious grip that's like a good massage -- like the Isleys' unbeatable smoothness you can't help but savor. Early/Morning from now on will find regular replays happening here on my system.

One of my longtime Isleys pets (among others) is Livin' In The Life.

I don't know about best, but I've always really enjoyed Elliot Easton guitar solos. Same with Neil Giraldo. Just really interesting stuff happening in there to pick apart.

Oh I'm aware I'm in my mid 40s. I was a big fan of FoW since the beginning. Also I thought "Sink To The Bottom" was just as big, if not bigger, than "Radiation Vibe".

Edit: I looked it up. You were right, radiation vibe went to number 32 and sink to the bottom went to number 42.
