Wow! Whatever in the hell Paul is listening to, it is pure garbage. And, trust me, I have been known to listen to some unlistenable stuff on occasion (e.g. John Zorn, Ruins, Melt-Banana, The Residents, etc), but that second video is pure sonic torture.
Completely disagree. Arcade Fire is one of the best and creative bands out there right now. Probably the only good thing about Krugman is that he likes AF.
I knew something was up when I heard the intro to your radio show that you might have good taste in music. This confirms it.
ReplyDeleteBrad DeLong has Better Taste in Music THAN Paul Krugman.

ReplyDeleteGeorge actually flubs a couple of notes in the beginning. Judging by his sweat level, he'd been workin' hard and was kind of winded.
ReplyDeleteThen he hits his groove and Holy Smokes!! It starts!
I love George Benson......
Good taste, Wenzel!
P.S. the greatest Film Opening segment of all time is in "All That Jazz" with George playing "On Broadway" live!!!
Whatever. Each to his own. I prefer Megadeth to both. I also regularly enjoy classical pianists.

ReplyDeleteDisturbing.
ReplyDeleteAt first I was thinking, "Oh come on, Wenzel, how big of a difference could there be? Musical taste is subjective, this is a petty post."
ReplyDeleteAnd then I hit the play button on Krugman's selection.
