Classic Rock

[Shred Danson]

My school actually had a guitar class, but the new teacher quit because he didnt know how to play guitar...I had to basically teach him AND the whole beginning class, he didn't even know how to play a D major chord..:lol:

[Schyma]

Haha I bet you guys don't have some of the classes I have:

English III
Weight Training (weight lifting, etc...)
Brunch
Business Computer (which is what I'm in right now)
Spainish I
Lunch
Video Production
US History.

Basically, I just get to **** around all school day :lol:



I DONT CARE!!!! Now get out this thread :wave:

[Schyma]

Going to fail my whole art course :lol: , just felt like sharing that

Its OK theres lots of people with disabilitys like for you being a complete retard. You also get out :wave:

[Broken Arrow]

**** you miss alot not being here but I read it all (I dont really like jazz but I'm in the Jazz band playing trumpet :thumb: )

Also I went in the school library for the first time ever(Im a first year at High school) and I found a biography on Neil Young by his Dad Scott (famous sports writer) So I think thid will be very Interesting to read.

EDIT:No n00bs aloud to share opinions not related to classic rock(regulars are)

I also play the trumpet in Jazz band, and I'm a Freshman.
Our Jazz Band mostly plays the Blues ++

Our similarities are freaky :confused:

[Badmoon]

I like Mahavishnu Orch.

Danzig is the Elvis of Metal

And one of my friends has just joined mx, expect him to come here. Be nice skanks.

[Woodstock]

I'm thinking about telling one of my friends to join mx.

[guitrguy]

I cant believe this, the record store that I go to, sold their last copy of Lennon Legends.
But I did get The Essential Bob Dylan for like $10.

[-Listy-]

Its OK theres lots of people with disabilitys like for you being a complete retard. You also get out :wave:

haha :)
**** you, unfunny cunt :thumb: wasnt talking to you so shut up
*waits for 'pwning' reply*

[thickasabrick]

i want to get the essential bob dylan. its like thirty bucks everywhere i looked though.

[guitrguy]

I bought it used, thanks to my quick eye.

[Whatever]

i want to get the essential bob dylan. its like thirty bucks everywhere i looked though.

did you look for it used? I get like half of my Cds from this used record store.

[Whatever]

I bought it used, thanks to my quick eye.

there you go.

[guitrguy]

That record store is going out of business, and i dont know any others that sell used nearby.

/still pissed about not finding Lennon Legends

[thickasabrick]

used...good idea. what was i thinking?

but who would want to get rid of their bob dylan cd?? its essential...so essential the title of the cd is the essential bob dylan.

edit- bob dylans coming out with a book. you may have heard or maybe you dont care. i listened to some sound clips from interviews. he sounds a lot different when he talks than when he sings.

[guitrguy]

used...good idea. what was i thinking?

but who would want to get rid of their bob dylan cd?? its essential...so essential the title of the cd is the essential bob dylan.
I know, I was suprised. You can't let a deal like that go.

[Woodstock]

I have some pretty good record stores where I live. The trick is to go to antique stores and search around.

[Whatever]

I don't know, but on Sunday I got Morrison Hotel, Workingman's Dead, Master of Puppets, Relics, and Ten for about 30 bucks.

[guitrguy]

This store was(still is for a while) so great. They always had good music playin when you came in. They never charged you tax. Great selection.

[Whatever]

Electronics Boutique and FYE also sell used CD's

[thickasabrick]

thats cool...we have a record/hemp store like that..i have never seen whether they have cds or not though.

[guitrguy]

Electronics Boutique and FYE also sell used CD's
Problem is they charge you up the butt. You got sift through crap to get to the good stuff, and its not locally owned so you can't get to know the owner.

[thickasabrick]

the electronic boutiques in my city only sell video games and dvds. we dont have a normal music one.

[guitrguy]

But this cd is a must!

[Dunnguitar]

blue oyster cult needs to get back together there music rocks

[guitrguy]

You realize thats probably not going to happen, right?

[thickasabrick]

hah the blue oyster cult comment was so out of the blue...i like their music but just let it be. whats done is done...you dont see jesus coming back to life!

[Whatever]

Problem is they charge you up the butt. You got sift through crap to get to the good stuff, and its not locally owned so you can't get to know the owner.

that's true for FYE, but I got those CD's I said from an EB.

Yeah you can, but only in the review section of the site.

[themightyquinn23]

Actually, that has nothing to do with it. You can post pictures on any of the forums.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

No you can't. MX only put the IMG tag on the review forums so people can post the covers of the ablums. In none of the other forums can you put the IMG tag around something. Trust me. I failed horribly. And was laughed at.

Who's your favorite acoustic guitarist?

Mine's Crosby or Stills. Although Clapton was great on Unplugged.

[themightyquinn23]

Well, all the discussion I've seen in this thread lately has been done about 1000 times before.

EDIT: to MYR

[MalcolmYoungRock]

That's because we've discussed the hell out of everything. But the point is, we have a strong classic rock community. and we should be able to talk about things repeativly.

Unless that 'tard not worthy of being called n00b, guitartd shows up.

Then everythings about Zeppelin :mad: I don't like that.

Really you can't find it? That's odd.(we're talkin' CD's here right?)

Keep looking though. It has better lyrics than any other Floyd album.

[Kingofdudes]

Best Buy would probably have a copy, too bad the closest one is like 60 miles away.

I love the songs on it, especially Gilmour's work on Dogs.

[RNR]

I got my copy of Animals at a used music store. I doubt musicworld or HMV something would have it :p

[Woodstock]

Best Buy is great, but I prefer Media Play(if you know what that is)

Dogs is one of the best, I think Pigs(Three different ones) is better.

Did you know when Neil Young was 9 he had a chicken selling buisness and made 10$ a week? That is very good money back then.

Neil also almost died of polio and his first insrument was a ukeale(sp?)

EDIT: to woodstock

[thesheriff]

I have to agree. Though Dogs may be the better song, I just can't get enough of Pigs, it's an awesome tune.

I've always tried to start a Sabbath conversation but it never worked.

Anyways, I love Sweet Leaf, War Pigs, Paranoid, The Wizard and a lot more.

[Schyma]

It has better lyrics than any other Floyd album.

I am not so sure about that I think piper of the gates of dawn and Wish you were Here beat Animals lyricaly and musically but I do love the lyrics but I just cant stand the pointlessly long songs.

[jpj]

i dont remember you doing any such thing. i love sabbath

EDIT:to woodstock

[jpj]

my favorite song is probably n.i.b.

[Broken Arrow]

Well I was just listening to Black Sabbath s/t i forgot how amazing the guitar work in that album are

[Woodstock]

The lyrics to Animals make you think. They're describing the way we act as humans.

WYWH has ok lyrics but excellent music. That's just my opinion though.

Pointlessly long...how dare you.

[Broken Arrow]

my favorite song is probably n.i.b.
Becaus eof the sweet bass line?

[Woodstock]

Yes, I love Iommi's "Lose the Tips of your Fingers" technique. He's great.

[jpj]

ya **** right

[Broken Arrow]

Right now Im listening to Hand of Doom

[jpj]

i also love that song

[Woodstock]

Right now Im listening to Hand of Doom
Did you read my post about how both of us play trumpet in Jazz Band?

[Broken Arrow]

Of course I have read every page in this thread

[lunch998]

Animals is probably my favorite Floyd album right now. They showed up, rocked and then left. None of the songs take 3-4 minutes to get into (not that I don't like Shine on You Crazy Diamond, but you gotta get to the music.) I think they lyrics are great on Animals as well, you have to think about them and the metaphors based on the Animal Farm.

[Simple Man]

Right now Im listening to Hand of Doom


Good song :thumb:

God I love how people think Van Halen is the greatest, me, I could care less for em', Eddie is so overrated.

[jpj]

so is ned flanders...but yeah he is

im sorry that was gay

[Kingofdudes]

I like Van Halen, Eddie too.

[Broken Arrow]

Are you badmoons friend? Van Halen is awesome

[Broken Arrow]

To King of Dudes : Your **** right Dk was gay!

[jpj]

yea i like them, and eddie too, but he is kinda overrated

[JonG]

I don't mind them either, but he got rated best guitarist of all-time, which every time I hear those stupid *** countdowns, makes me want to pull my hair out.

[Schyma]

I like Van Halen, Eddie too.

Van Halen sux *** :thumb:

i think hes got a lot of talent, but hes definitely not the greatest of all time

[Kingofdudes]

But Eddie is an important guitarist, he has been a huge influence on shredders.

So far: nice "new" avatar King of Dudes.

Livewired, how could you?

[Kingofdudes]

They got their moments, its just some fun music.

[Woodstock]

I guess since Livewired pulled out the Young 'tar,..

I'll pull out my CSN&Y.

[wanton]

the agles arent that great but all the others are

Pre-Walsh Eagles = the best

[Schyma]

Anyone still there?

[RNR]

What do you all think? Who's better, Neil Young solo or CSN&Y. I know i'm going to take alot of flame for this but i'd say Neil Young. He did so many amazing things solo. And as far as i'm considerned he's (a bit) better than CSN&Y.

*waits to be beaten up by the hippies*

Might as well got it done by now :D

[Seafroggys]

You have to read what somebody said on Amazon.com about Aqualung:

Dull, Overated, Short, boring, lyrically stupid, full of filler, and definitely NOT a Rock Classic. I was tricked into buying this scum by the masses of reviewers who hailed this as "One of the Greatest Classic Rock Albums of All-Time!". Well, I'd heard Aqualung on the radio and thought that that was a good song, so what was to lose? Well, my money! Surprisingly to me, Aqualung turned out to be 1 of the only 2 good songs on this album! Fair warning to all potential buyers, if you buy this expecting this album to be a "Rock" album, you'll be disappointed! What you ACTUALLY are getting is a combination of blues and jazz, with almost no guitar and an over-emphasis on the flute. THE FLUTE! Granted, if you are a fan of any of those musical styles that I just mentioned, you will LOVE this album! Although, if you're not, like me, you will HATE this album! After rocking with the song Aqualung, Jethro Tull then plunges into suicide by playing 7 straight songs that are simply a flute with some backup drums! Finally, we get to the other good song Hymn 43, which is a radio staple and happens to be the only one with a guitar all throughout the song! Note that I'm reviewing the Aqualung without the extra tracks, but even if they are good it's simply not enough to make up for the rest of the album. I thought I would fall asleep during the misery that is My God and Wind-Up, which drag on for 7 and 6 minutes respectfully. Jethro Tull never tries inventiveness or originality, as all the songs are typical folk songs with tinges of jazz and blues, with hardly any vocals and mostly just flute solos! Also, the lyrics are childishly stupid, and are some of the worst I've ever heard. Since the album doesn't include the lyrics, simply download some of Aqualung's songs of the net and read them! They never fail to get a laugh out of you! And seriously folks, out of 11 songs, you only get 5 songs that are over 4 minutes, with the rest(Excluding Hymn 43) being just boring filler that takes up space! While Led Zeppelin and America manage to do good and even great folk/rock, Jethro Tull has never impressed me at all. This CD is really overated, and it's saddening to look at all the good reviews. If you're a fan of Rock, you won't like this. If you're a fan of folk, jazz, blues, or play a flute you will like this. Otherwise, this CD will simply bore you to sleep. Good for K5 teachers trying to find a way to get the kids to go to sleep at nap time! Also, if you listen to "Aqualung", the guitar riff is casually ripped off of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs"! That really angers me that one of only a few good songs on this album isn't even original!

I found this to be very funny. This guy has no sense of perspective whatsoever.

[Iwannarock]

Would ac/dc be counted as classic rock? They are one of my favorite bands but I have always thought that they are just plain rock.


yeah. I like to think they are. they rock non the less and they made their own style, which a lot of classic rockers did. so they are.

[RNR]

And he hasen't heard of paragraphs. I like almost every song on Aqualung. I don't know what he's been smoking. Obviously not pot because stoners love Tull :D

Edit: in responce to the Aqualung flamez0id article.

[RNR]

yeah. I like to think they. they rock non the less and they made their own style, which a lot of classic rockers did. so they are.

The thing is, when I made that post I knew nothing. Now I know a ton about music.

Join in the current conversation. Forget about all of those early posts please.

[thickasabrick]

in response to the tull comment made earlier....jethro tull owns you

ian anderson has got to be probably the most talented musician of all time. jethro tull isnt my favourite band, but you have to give anderson credit. he kept the band rolling with new material for decades, and has learned probably about twenty different instruments as well as incorporated them into awesome music.

jethro tull is awesome. aqualung may possibly be their best album too.

edit- ok i have realized that whoever wrote that article most likely will never read this post...now i feel thick as a brick.

He's delta blues, not rock.
Brilliant musician though. You'll never ever hear BB waste a single note.

That Aqualung guy was an idiot.

And CSNY was better than Neil Young. You know why?

Because CSNY had Neil Young+Crosby, Stills and Nash. It's simple mathematics.

This is not mathamatics and I didn't mean skills wise. I've just found that Neil Young wrote better music by himself than CSNY wrote as a whole. Just because he was in the band didn't mean that he added himself to their overall sound. I think he learned alot from them and was better by himself. That's like saying that Blind Faith or Derek and the dominos was better than Clapton. When obviously Clapton's solo stuff is better than the music that was made when he was in those band.

And yes Stills is the better guitarist ad singer of the two. But Neil Young had a better ability to write songs that people liked (not saying that Stills didn't make good music, just not as good as Neil Young).

Not this people kitten.

I'd say he wasn't even close.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Everybody is an like 4 hours ahead of me so you post while I'm at school...

:(

This sucks.

I come home and BAM! I have to read 5 or 6 pages of crap!

[RNR]

Obviously badmoon disagrees. CSNY are more of his type of music than Neil Young solo.

What about Buffalo Springfield? Voice your opinons quickly or else this post will be lost in tons of spam done by n00bs.

edit: ^I just got home half an hour ago. It's annyoing having to read through all of your spam :p

[MalcolmYoungRock]

What spam?

I don't spam very often.

Buffalo Springfield is great.

[RNR]

I meant everyone's spam. And I also meant Neil Young Vs Buffalo Springfield.

[Maggot Dream]

Agreed, I don't think Buffalo Springfield gets enough recognition.

[Maggot Dream]

I'd have to put Neil Young over Buffalo Springfield, but then again I'd put CSN over both of them.

[Broken Arrow]

my favourite song is probably Mr. Soul

[Woodstock]

Not this people kitten.



I'd say he wasn't even close.
Thank you. Someone agrees with me.

Crosby is obviously my favorite.

[Broken Arrow]

And Neil is obvisouly mine

[Woodstock]

Since we're on the subject, what's your favorite CSNY song?

Mine: Almost Cut My Hair, Carry On, Deja Vu, and many more..

They're one of those bands that I like every one of their songs.

[Broken Arrow]

Ohio,Woodstock,Woodenships and Helpless

[RNR]

I love Buffalo Springfield. And I also like the more than Neil Young, very diverse band.

I can see that the conversation has once again shifted to CSNY and Neil Young talk. I'm through with this thread. Hopefully I will see some of you again in threads that are worth posting in. Sorry, it's just not the same as it used to be.

[lunch998]

I really like Suite Judy Blue Eyes, even though it's just CS&N. Along with the other songs previously mentioned.

[Badmoon]

I'm through with this thread.

Good, cause I can assure you, none of us can stand your nagging.

But then the donkey doesn't have a friend to play with :(. A minimum of 2 is required.

[thickasabrick]

Simon and Garfunkel did "The times they are a changin'"

[thickasabrick]

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Eric Clapton did a cover of knockin on heavens door... if you have aim i'll send it.

[lunch998]

oh cool i've never heard the simon and garfunkel version...i wanna hear it now.

I'm pretty sure its on Wednesday Morning 3 am, or whatever the CD is called.

[thickasabrick]

i've heard tons of covers of knockin on heavens door...who's do you think is the best (including dylans)

[Woodstock]

Oh, it's definetely GnR :thumb: :rolleyes:

[the mighty zep]

I personally liked Guns N Roses better than the others...but maybe im more used to theres cause i hear it alot more than the others, so it may have just grown on me.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Fools have you heard eric claptons version?

It is far more superior than GnR's.

[Woodstock]

Anything is far more superior than GnR.

[JonG]

Eric Clapton is great. Anyone like Alice Cooper? I saw him a few months ago...1st concert

(I'm 14.)

Grrr.... :evil:

[themightyquinn23]

You should do stand-up. Seriously.

[JonG]

Guns N Roses isn't that great, I only like Slash, Axl is a little girl. As for songs..I only like Patience and Sweet Child O' Mine, and Welcome To The Jungle.

[Woodstock]

Eric Clapton is great. Anyone like Alice Cooper? I saw him a few months ago...1st concert

(I'm 14.)
Cooper's great, though he kind of sold out on his "darkness".

He makes cameos on everything.

So far I've seen: That 70's Show and an Office Max commercial

[Woodstock]

You should do stand-up. Seriously.
I'm sorry, but are you going to leave or not?

[lunch998]

Yea does that guy want a memorial service or something?

[Woodstock]

Yea does that guy want a memorial service or something?
He want's a parade or something.

[I Wish to remain unnamed]

Zeppelin rules. The Who is great. The Doors are pretty good. Rush is ok. Van Halen is awesome. I dont know if Black Sabbath would count as classic rock but if you like zep and van halen black sabbath is for you.

[JonG]

Yeah, I like Cooper, was a fun show. Even how old he is :)

Anyone like Elvin Bishop?

[thickasabrick]

im going to alice cooper on oct 11. i'm excited. me and some of my friends camped over night to get front row....even though no one else showed up for tickets till about eight in the morning. it was awesome.

[JonG]

Lol, here, there was no front row or nothin', just in an open ballroom, I got up to the front though :) Almost caught like 5 100 bills when he sang a song, can't remember it though.

[thatoneguy587]

The Grateful Dead - All along the Watch Tower

Garcia and Grisman - Knockin' on Heaven's Door

You should do stand-up. Seriously.

Ahhh, how original :rolleyes:

[RNR]

It's craptastic!

Now why would we post on that crappy site, when we have this, much better site already? And plus there's musicdisscusion.tk too. Both better than that forum.

[thickasabrick]

hey badmoon whats your favourite song by the grateful dead?

[guitarted838]

Im back

[RNR]

Now be productive. Or else...


I would also like to know what his favorite song is. He worships them so much, it would be interesting.

[Badmoon]

hey badmoon whats your favourite song by the grateful dead?

Ever - "Sugar Magnolia"

Recently - "Mama Tried"

[Badmoon]

Your late on the post and the vistation, pig.

EDIT: Touche ;)

[guitarted838]

whats the new chatroom?

[Shakedown]

I would have guessed "Sugar Magnolia". It's a great song. It has a great laid-back guitar part and "Saw My Baby Down By The River" is sung beautifully.

[thickasabrick]

for some reason this question just popped into my head....
in my opinion, classic rock has been influenced by a few different genres (not including rock itself)
a few that come to mind are blues, r&b, folk and bluegrass

what im wondering is...in your opinions... what makes a better classic rock sound?

is it the more electric blues/r&b aspect, or the more acoustic folk/bluegrass?

just for conversations sake. of course everyone has different opinions.

[guitarted838]

i like a bluesy rock sound

[JonG]

I'm thinking this site should get an IRC channel...anybody else think so??

BTW: Black Sabbath=great. Anybody think so?

[RNR]

Blues influenced rock is my favorite.

[Badmoon]

Bluegrass and Country with Rock > all

[guitarted838]

:thumb: Blues influenced rock is my favorite.

[thickasabrick]

im really not sure myself...because i think of guys like dylan, neil young, simon and garfunkel who took the more folkish route are the most amazing songwriters. but blues is my favourite genre.

my favourite bands are zeppelin and jethro tull..who you can tell have been influenced by both folk and blues.

So, then you're strongly leaning towards folk-rock.

[guitarted838]

zeppelin isnt very folk, sure there are some folk songs that they did but blues rock is their main style

They were known to be very diverse, they played folk stuff as much as they played rock.

[guitarted838]

Ok........I agree

[Badmoon]

You would never say they just play Folk. You could say they only play Rock

[thickasabrick]

ya im not saying they were a folk band, im just saying they have been influenced by folk. even their folk songs arent exactly folk.

so its agreed. no referring to folk and led zeppelin in the same post again.

[guitrguy]

SRV is great, but were is Muddy, Buddy, and B.B.?

[RNR]

^ This is not a competition. This is all for your guys's information. It's foolish to compare different genres.

Edit: to thick as a brick.

[thickasabrick]

man i put up a gigantic poster of SRV up on the wall my room where i teach guitar lessons....i had to explain to every single student of mine who SRV is. i am very disappointed in 8 to 12 year olds these days.


edit- ya your right Rock Not Roll. both are awesome

[Badmoon]

Well, it's some of my favorite bands vs. his. and there is of course much more Blues Rock Classic Rock bands, so...Vut most my favorite jam bands are Country/Bluegrass/Folk influenced.

[thickasabrick]

i dont even know how to actually play rock on the guitar. it just turns into blues or bluegrass without me noticing.......maybe there isn't such a thing as rock n roll.

[RNR]

man i put up a gigantic poster of SRV up on the wall my room where i teach guitar lessons....i had to explain to every single student of mine who SRV is. i am very disappointed in 8 to 12 year olds these days.




:lol:. 10 Months ago when I started to play guitar I asked about my teacher's poster. It was of Jimi Hendrix :(.

That one hurt :(

My AP US HIS likes SRV, and played one of his CDs during a test once. Imagine the kid's responses :upset:

[guitrguy]

Your influences always come out through your guitar work. I know it happens to me.
