Part 2 of my conversation with Phil Stacey about choosing 10 artists to listen to for the rest of your life if you were stranded on a desert island.
Show notes:
- Bowie would pivot from one persona to another
- Phil: The Stones, but leaning heavily on the 1965-1981 period
- The Stones and the Who have so many compilations out
- In the Stones vs. Beatles argument, the Stones have the edge as a live band
- Jay: The Clash are one of the most important bands
- Not a huge catalog, but there's still plenty there
- The US Festival was the last gasp for the original lineup
- Phil: Repping for the Tedeschi Trucks Band
- Cover a wide range of styles and genres
- Jay: Another artist with a changing style and persona, PJ Harvey
- Not afraid to tackle new sounds
- Lots of great, interesting stuff to check out
- Jay: Would enjoy digging further into the Cure's catalog
- So much to delve into
- Output has slowed down since the '90s
- Phil: His one-time favorite band, U2
- Early material remains strong
- Hit or miss the last two decades
- U2's legacy has diminished because they hung around too long
- It's tough for legacy acts whose new material will always be compared to their classic stuff
- You won't hear recent music from legendary bands on the radio
- The fans want the hits
- Jay: R.E.M. has a lot of parallels to U2, except they stopped
- They had a dip in quality for a few albums, but stopped performing in 2011
- Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy have done a great job paying tribute to classic R.E.M. albums
- Reminding people how great the band was
- They haven't reformed other than a few impromptu songs
- Many bands are playing their classic albums front to back
- Bands like Sloan and Iron Maiden will alternate touring classic albums and new ones
