really not sure on that poop sample hahah could easily just be one of the guys in the band being disgusting for his friends and bringing a tape recorder to the toilet for a fine hangover dump hahahaha

I always assumed it was Patton, and it's probably him or someone else in the band no doubt. No way they'd pass up the opportunity to shit on tape and sell it and use a sample sourced from elsewhere instead.

hell i wouldn't be surprised to find out it was just Patton fooling around and successfully trying to find out if he could emulate the sound of a nasty dump with his mouth. hahaha

Also in the background of that one (the "most folks" stuff) are the outtakes from an old KFC ad where the elderly Col Sanders can't make it through his lines without screwing up. I was amazed when I stumbled across the original recording a couple years ago.

Holy crap, that's funny. How did you happen to stumble across the originals?

I think I was looking for free sound effects or something and wound up on some blog of audio recordings of celebrity goofs or something. They seemed funny so I started downloading them, and lo and behold one of them was the Colonel Sanders thing. I still have it if you want to hear it. It's pretty funny.

oddly enough eating KFC makes me replicate the poop sample almost exactly about 40 minutes after i finish my meal hahaha

Sure, I'm all ears.

Tupac Shakur All Eyez On Me
Nominated by Mark Ronson, producer

This was Tupac's biggest record, and is seen by rap fans as the greatest latterday hip-hop album. But I've never got the cult of Tupac. Sure, he was in a lot of pain but he never said anything particularly clever - Notorious B.I.G. was far superior. People really related to the emotion in his voice, but it didn't resonate with me. No one would doubt Tupac's "realness" - he was shot nine times, for God's sake, and he began recording this album hours after being released from prison - but it doesn't compare to Biggie. Dr Dre produced it, and I didn't rate his production, either.

Problem was, Tupac was so prolific. He would write 50 songs in a weekend. Maybe he knew he was going to die, so he recorded relentlessly. I bought it at the time because it had one song on it that I'd play in clubs, but one out of 20 isn't great. In fact, there are 27 tracks on it - it started the trend of putting loads of songs on rap albums. Tupac wasn't up there with Dylan - Dylan was a brilliant poet. Eminem is probably the Dylan of rap, whereas Tupac just sounded like he was whining.

Eminem the Dylan of rap? Hardly. I quite like the Marshall Mathers LP, there was some genuine anger and emotion there. But c'mon, the guy wrote lyrics such as

Nick I ain't never seen an ass like that

It's better to be overrated than underrated. Besides, it's not the musicians' fault Nevermind is overrated - it's the public's, or the critics'. But you don't find yourself ever longing to listen to it, because there were - still are, in fact - so many mediocre bands that sound like it, that you're constantly experiencing it. I never get out Nevermind and think: what great production, what great songs. Nevermind had a poisonous, pernicious influence. It legitimised suffering. The sainthood of Kurt Cobain overshadows the album: Kurt's lyrics, his attitudinising and navel-gazing, were hard to separate from the band's image. You can never just hear the record. For me, Bleach and In Utero are superior. Even the album cover seems cheap: that stupid dollar bill just seems to have been airbrushed in there. If Alice in Chains had done it, we'd have thought it was a joke, but because it was Nirvana we thought it was oh-so-clever. If you think you're going to hear an utterly original, powerful and freaky record when you put on Nevermind, as a young kid might, Christ you're going to be disappointed. You're going to think, "Who is this band that sounds just like Nickelback? What are these drug addicts going on about?"

I pretty much agree with everything here. Nirvana was in the right place at the right time, and nothing more. If Kurt hadn't killed himself, they wouldn't have made such an impact.

Of all the albums that get written about as "classics", this one least deserves it. Having said that, it contains one of the greatest songs ever written: God Only Knows, which is melancholic yet uplifting, pure yet f**ked-up. But the rest of the record is a total let-down - I felt that way from the very first listen. Pet Sounds is a million miles away from Sgt Pepper or Dark Side of the Moon. I do appreciate the lyrics, and I know it's an album about getting older, but as a concept album, it doesn't quite add up. Good tunes, yes - Wouldn't It Be Nice is a great pop song - but most of the other tracks just don't resonate for me. I apologise unreservedly to everyone who loves every word and note, every last crackle, on this album, but that's how it is. Oh, and it's got the worst sleeve of any major album, ever. Feeding time at the zoo? I don't think so.

This one I disagree with too. I love Pet Sounds. The album cover does suck though.

Yeah, it's one of a very long line of ugly-ass Beach Boys album covers. Here's another classic example:
