I have a large dislike for disco, I find most of what I have heard incredibly boring and tedious. ‘I Feel Love’ is a very good example of such a song so turn it off or skip the damn thing.

Next up – The biggest selling single in the UK in 1965.

Turn It Up. It’s got nice jazz harmonies and pretty good lyrics.

I own one phish  album out of 79 (junta) and a track from that very lp shows up here! (Way extended) Some of the more Deadish moments aren’t really my thing, but the funky bits are OK,  and of course they can play. I suspect if this were Side 3 of some 1973ish double live album by Santana or Zappa or somebody that I found at a garage sale in 1985, then it’d be a favoured jam for years. Turn it up 1.5 notches.

Since you’ve broken the seal for long jams…here’s the wretchedly unpopular Phish-equivalent (kbd repaced with 2nd guitar and lead hollerer/mutterer) of the early 70’s 

GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

I found that one interesting, there was always something new to discover but I wouldn’t listen to this just for pleasure as it gets a bit tedious after a while IMO.

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

Turn it up, I like how soft the song is while being chaotic and seemingly out of order. I really like how the song intensifies around 3:30 for a spell.

Haha and then play the rest of that fantastic album, especially the 17 minute title track. Recorded the day beatles filmed the paperback writer video…

Turn the Springfield up! I like how Neil’s complete guitar performance is just a single picked note played  a total of four times and allowed to feed back throughout.

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8ahdn_paul_06…hm, more than a week now. Guess I’ll keep that one at the same volume (it’s only fair) and move on…

That was a real good-mood song, I enjoyed listening to it and although I wouldn’t want to listen to it every day I’d turn it up if it was on the radio at this very moment. Therefore, I also turn it up now: Turn it up! (Boy, that was unnecessary…)

Something of  a totally different mood:

Woah. I’d say leave it where it is. Because to me it doesn’t sound quite pleasing enough to turn up but it’s too interesting to turn down. 

Now, if i may present a non-english song:

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it’s beautiful, and so are you... probably... I actually don't know... and it's nighttime here //piggiesinpennylane

Sounds like a nice lounge version of Twist And Shout a-hard-days-night-john-6 I’ll turn it up.

I’m in the mood to listen to The Animals ATM, so how about this classic tune:

Turn it up! Classic song, altho my favorite version is still Santa Esmeralda’s 70’s disco epic.

Doesn’t stick out to me. Turn it down.

And now for one of my favourite Stones songs:

Pretty good song/album/band, but I’ve always found Andy’s voice a little off-putting. Still, turn it up.

Not bad, but not terrific. Turn it down a little.

Whoa, I love this guitar riff! And the overall arc of suspense in the song is really great too, turn it up!

Can’t get the following song out of my head at the moment:

That was pretty cool, turn it up. More electronic-sounding than their earlier guitar-dominated stuff (from what I remember – I only played those albums a couple of times)

Eh, I’ll leave the knob where it is. It’s not the best song I’ve ever heard, it doesn’t really go anywhere.

Wow, that was… crazy. And I love crazy things! Turn it up, therefore! I especially liked the riff, the overall energy, the wild backing vocals (or should I call it backing noises 😉 ), and also the piano. At 1:34, where it plays the dissonances, that’s simply awesome! What a pity that the piano only plays at the beginning!
