Hey! Medeski, Martin & Wood !!!!

who likes these guys? They are geniuses, listen to them if you get a chance, no, Make it a special point to seek these guys out.

 

YEAH! I already made a thread about them

 

oops...I didn't realize that, sorry, but hey, they are good so there can't be too much talk about them right?

 

The Dropper = BEST ALBUM EVER.

 

yep. Billy Martin has a SHELF full of little instruments he uses for percussion. Wood blocks, clingers, clangers, uppers, downers, you name it. STUFFED ANIMALS THAT SQUEEK. Guys nuts. Great band too. If you can, check out Medeski's side project with the band Club D'Elf if you like Medeski and tribal music its a combo of the 2.
Happy Trails

 

I will be checking that out for sure, sounds really interesting. Thanks

 

yes, they are an awesome live band. i love how martin uses pots and pans while playing.. he's brilliant

 

Meh, they're okay.

 

i can see how some people think they are just ok. Some of it is pretty out there, but you gotta respect a guy that uses squeeking stuffed animals and pots and pans like stated above as music. He really does have dozens of things he uses throughout a show. Pretty impressive i think.

 

I really like their stuff. I have Friday Afternoon in the Universe. It's a pretty sweet album.

 

The Dropper is a pretty sweet album, I haven't heard much else by them though...

 

I think that's their worst album by far...
