Topic: Albums that are dead wood Return to archive

Mel Belli Only two songs from the very fine and underrated "Dirty Work" have been aired live, not counting the Winos' version of "Too Rude."

"DW" is thus down there with "Satanic Majesties," from which we've only heard two.

Question: how to treat those TV "performances" of songs like "I Am Waiting" and "Till the Next Goodbye." They didn't *really* play them, but they were "performed" in public.

We need a ruling.

beer I'm not sure what you're question is, but do you have the performance of 'Til The Next Goodbye'? I would love to see it.



In my opinion, Dirty Work is absolutely terrible. I think the people that love it, love it for sentimental value mostly; ie, they grew up listening to it or something. I can't even listen to it the whole way through.

On the other hand, I think Satanic Majesties has some truely great stuff on it: 2000 Man, Citadel, Rainbow, Light Years. I like Citadel the best of the album.

Gazza >Question: how to treat those TV "performances" of songs like "I Am Waiting" and "Till the Next Goodbye." They didn't *really* play them, but they were "performed" in public.

Till The Next Goodbye has never been "performed". They only filmed a promo for it for TV. There wasnt even a studio audience, so theres no "grey" area with that one.

"I Am Waiting" was performed live before a studio audience on Ready Steady Go, but never "in concert". As far as our setlists page goes, we only consider actual concert performances as "live" appearances, not guest appearances on TV shows

Gimme Shelter All Rap albums are dead wood. All Stones albums are classics.

Mel Belli Undercover is down there with Satanic. Only two songs from it have ever been played. ... But SW and B2B have had most of their songs played at least once...

Dirty Work is a crap album that ranks alongside the abysmal 1979 Wings' disaster " Back to the Egg " as the worst discs EVER Made .

Mel Belli Half of an album is a solid showing... ER doesn't qualify as dead wood.
