Re: Forum poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1992

Can anyone explain to me why The Chronic is a 1992 album, while Nuthin' But a G Thang is listed as a 1993 song.

My memory is a little hazy that long ago, but the usual pattern in hip-hop and most modern music is that you have this breakout single and then the full-length gets released. I remember G Thang exploding before The Chronic became a widely-acclaimed album.

Re: Forum poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1992

From various sources, "The Chronic" seems to have been released on December 15th, 1992. And most sources say that "Nuthin' But a G Tang" was released in January 1993.

Anyway, now that I am listing songs instead of singles, you are correct that "Nuthin' But a G Tang" should be listed under 1992. I will make that change for the next update. Nevertheless, the song will have to be included in the 1993 part of this poll.

Favourite compilation of 1992: ELVIS PRESLEY “The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. The Complete 50’s Masters”

My favorite Spanish song of 1992: Kiko Veneno's "En un Mercedes blanco"

Kiko Veneno was the leader of the seminal band Veneno that recorded the ground-breaking 1977 album “Veneno” (“Poison”), considered by many the all-time best Spanish album. They created a fresh mix of drums and spanish guitars, of Bob Dylan automatic poetry and Andalucia popular rhymes, of Frank Zappa’s free musical approach and flamenco roots. The band broke up after this only album, and while the guitarists of the band Raimundo and Rafael Amador reached high heights with a new band, Pata Negra, the career of Kiko Veneno went down during the eighties. In 1992 Kiko resurfaced with a brilliant album, “Échate un cantecito” (“Burst Out Some Singing”) recorded in London, played mainly by English musicians and produced by Jo Dworniak.
The gorgeous album closer was “En un Mercedes blanco” (“Driving a White Mercedes”), wrapping a theme as serious as the drug addiction with a sweet and danceable rumba rhythm and his usual (and typical of Andalucia) sense of humour. The lyrics are slightly cryptic but Kiko himself gave some clues to Spanish Rolling Stone: “Got the idea one day when I was with Raimundo (Amador) in Seville neighbourhood of 3.000 Housing (suburb of Seville mainly inhabited by gypsies). I saw a gypsy boy buying a half dollar of tinfoil for having some “chinos” (heroin joints). The lyrics talked about the impact that heroin made to gypsy world: it wreaked havoc among 90% of the families”. It’s about the 3.000 Housing of Seville but it could have been about every ghetto of every city, from the Bronx to the Paris “banlieues”. It doesn’t matter. You got the picture by now, don’t you?



EN UN MERCEDES BLANCO
Composer and performer: KIKO VENENO
First release: 1992 (“Échate un cantecito” album)
Length: 4’20”

En un Mercedes blanco llegó
A la feria del ganado
Diez duros de papel Albal
Y el cielo se ha iluminado

Viene desde muy lejos y ya
No le queda ni memoria
Dice que un duende se la cambió
Por un ratito de gloria

En un Mercedes blanco llegó
De lunares el pañuelo
Todos los chiquillos detrás de él
Siempre va mirando al suelo

"¡Qué pena de muchacho!"
Le dicen la gente en los bares
Cuando juegan a las máquinas
Y recogen lo que les sale

Tres reyes van en un barco
Son tres leyes y un secreto
Ni ruinas ni cenizas
Ni papel que lleve el viento

Ponme, ponme la cinta otra vez
Pónmela hasta que se arranque
Los cachitos de hierro y cromo
A cantar como tú sabes

¡Qué pena de muchacho! …

Ponme esa cinta otra vez…


DRIVING A WHITE MERCEDES

He came driving a white Mercedes
To the cattle fair
A half dollar of tinfoil
And the sky has been lighten up.

He comes from far away and
He hasn’t got even memory
He says that a goblin changed it
For a moment of glory.

He came driving a white Mercedes
With a spotted hanky
All the kids behind him
Always gazing at the floor

"That boy’s such a shame!"
Says the people at the bars
As they play with the fruit machines
And collect the money.

Three kings goes in a ship
Three laws and a secret
No ruins neither ashes
Neither paper carried with the wind

Play it, play that tape again
Play it till it scratches off
The iron and chrome bits
Singing like only you know it.

That boy’s such a shame…

Play me that tape again…



Mmm, like the idea. Think I’ll do the same maybe for 1990 and 1991.

Re: Forum poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1992

@honorio

Thanx for the "explanation"!
I have to say that I'm constantly torn if I should include my non-english favourite songs (mostly german or italian), because I know for sure that they won't appear later in the listings of the Top-whatever.

But I'll certainly try to listen to your No.1-Song in the next days!

Re: Forum poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1992

Thank U, tfguenther. I’m glad that you’ll try to listen to that song. That’s the idea, to create in some of you enough curiosity for hearing the song, even with an illegal download (or seeing the video in YouTube). In that way there isn't the excuse of “I don’t understand the lyrics”. It’s possible that you don’t like the song, but at least you’ve expanded your musical knowledge just a little more.

8.SURFIN BICHOS: Hermanos carnales
9.SUPERELVIS: Wrong Songs
10.UMPAH-PAH: Bamboo Avenue

I think the approach of my fellow countryman Honorio is interesting, but the fact is that the Spanish albums are unknown in the rest of the world. In my opinion, the best option is a separated list.

And my favourite compilation of 1992: VARIOUS ARTISTS: Here Come the Girls, Vol. 3: Run Mascara.

Re: Forum poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1992

I've hardly heard any of the real good music for 1992. I probably couldn't even try to make a top 20 that would be composed of all good albums until 2004 or 2005. Maybe a few of the years in the 60s.

1. REM - Automatic For The People
2. PJ Harvey - Dry
3. Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted
4. Alice In Chains - Dirt

I won't even try to make a songs list, because of house I listen to albums. (All the way through without looking at the song list.)
