Cool they are having a Horace Andy impersonator at the local music hall! NOT. Elvis wasn't called the "king of rock and roll" because he was mediocre.

No one can impersonate Horace Andy's voice. It's far too unique.

Elvis just impersonated the black man. There were many out there at the time whom were far better singers and musicians. For obvious reasons they didn't get big record deals like Elvis. The real "king of rock'n'roll" is actually an unknown black man who died without a penny to his name.

Surely you're aware Elvis and all the rest of the honkys at the time were doing poor impersonations of black music because none of the real stuff was getting any radio play due to being too..........well..........black.

Of course you can fuck wit it brother............are you down with a bad-ass Melvins Dub album produced by Scientist or not?????

And also do you think Elvis and the rest of the honkys at the time were impersonating the black man's music???

roy orbison rolls over all reggae singers.

No chance!

First of all Farty......you haven't heard a Reggae record in your life.....well maybe those crappy honkys UB40 but they don't count.

Second......Compare Roys voice to Horace Andy's or Burning Spear's and he's a MAJOR fail.....as are his records. There are a truckload more Jamiacan artists too that cane him......honkys just don't sing as well as brothers.....it's a fact.

As for Elvis and Buddy....they too had voices which to be fair were nothing special.

As you know the honkys with good voices are ALWAYS honkys trying to impersonate a Black man/womans voice. As a result even the best honky singers will always be second rate compared to the black man/woman.

Farty's living in a honky dreamland.

what's with all the honky references? do you hate being white?

No...... I just love that kick ass Melvins album with that song "Air Breather Deep In The Arms Of Morphius".

Also honky sounds much more rad than whitey.

Obviously you love your honky heritage Farty but the fact of the matter is Blacks do everything better..........and this rock'n'roll which you love so much is a black thang.......now bow down to the black man Farty BOW DOWN!!!!!!!!

sorry, but i'm not white. but you are an idiot, considering that you soley gauge the merits of music by how much bass is in the mix.  you've been on this board for a while, but only recently have you gone out of your way to challenge any respect we had for your opinions. i suggest you either drop the schtick or shuffle your way back to the bungleboard.

I actually would have never even thought of a Melvins dub concept until I read this post... and I do not know enough about Dub to even consider this.. but who knows stranger stuff has happened musically.
as for the second sentence, It is true to a degree but  I really don't want to dwell on Americas ugly history..  I'm concerned where America is headed now..  which is looking pretty scary!  NORTH AMERICAN UNION?  I live in the center hub of all this (KC,MO) and where this new super highway is being constructed and they are already flying all 3 flags there (USA, Canada, Mexico) very interesting.

No need to be sorry. You should be chuffed?

but you are an idiot, considering that you soley gauge the merits of music by how much bass is in the mix.  

Bass rules. Trebble doesn't. Surely you can't sit there and tell me you don't love it when you're at a concert or at home listening to music when all of a sudden it gets a million times heavier because an avalanche of bass comes out of nowhere and batters your senses?

you've been on this board for a while, but only recently have you gone out of your way to challenge any respect we had for your opinions. i suggest you either drop the schtick or shuffle your way back to the bungleboard.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'll stick to my guns Farty. If you don't like the fact that your immature baiting is countered with even more immature comebacks I suggest visiting another thread.

Seriously it sounds kind of like a joke when an alter ego called "Fart Lips" tries to become an authority on the board, talk down to folk and act all sensible. It just doesn't fly.

Now BACK on topic.........

"Grin" would make another killer Dubwise riddim.

Really? I thought it was looking a little less scary now that Obama's got in? Almost forgot about his big day coming up.

yeah I am kinda concerned about what might happen to Obama, how much will he subcome to this global elite that is really calling the shots. just study the North American Union and figure out if you really like the sovereignty of this country and our beloved Constitution ..  it could all go bye bye,  all in the name of so called "free trade"   sorry I am getting off the subject.. nuff said.

It'll be interesting to see how the USA and the world is 1 year down the track.

race cards are race cards. you're like that black guy who joined the kkk. 

you're right about the bass, otherwise what's gonna pull the slack on all that reggae dub songwriting?

immature? you're the one with the homo this and that flowing out of your mouth when someones says they don't like your band. don't blow no bubbles, dude!

I Love Quilts

"Quilt in a Weekend",a book that my grammy loaned me."

you're the one coming up with these bait topics. you're the one who came in here chuffed.

Bait topic? This topic is 100% straight up ma non honky!

I'd be more chuffed if Melvins hooked up with Scientist for a bad-ass Dub album.

Now can we end this bad-ass domestic?
