telephonic conversations in albums...

...don't you hate it when they put telephone conversations,
answering machine messages etc. in albums... (and even Frank
Zappa & The Mothers Of Invention have done it!!!) -_-
annoying and pure filler. most of the time it's not even
modified.

just, who cares about them anyway?? who needs fake
conversations to make an album sound like a movie or
something by artificial means, or real conversations for the
artist to expose his/her privacy in public...

what about the ~2-3 minute long evangelical joke in ork live
'93? that really pisses me off.

it's nice to hear Richards parents sing "happy birthday,"
though...

which album is it that sparked this outburst of hate towards
phone-calls in albums?

Check "mogwai - tracy" for excellent use of a phone
conversation.

that guy rapping from inside prison over the phone on that
song on that one outkast album is quite good...

Drunken Mastah > no particular album actually : )

i just wanted to make this topic for a long time, and as i
just got Transformer by Lou Reed and as there was a track
called "New York Telephone Conversation" (haven't listened
to it yet), it reminded me of this.... (also i just
converted "Enfilade" by At The Drive-In to mp3 into my
computer and set the beginning of the track at 00:29, so i
could listen to it without always having to put the cd on
and skip the first 29 seconds - it's my favourite track but
it has 29 seconds of telephonic conversation before it
starts ^^ even if it makes sense somewhat, it's annoying
especially when playing the track on repeat.)

information"

Ironically the song "New York Telephone Conversation" by Lou
Reed doesn't include a recording of a telephone call at all.
Crazy!

But the first couple of scanner albums are wicked.
