Classic Rock

[magicbus]

I'm not a big fan.

[Schyma]

No I was just trying to listen to it in school. But Kashmir did just fine. :thumb:

TO Schyma - Do you have Pompeii on Vhs or Dvd?

No but I want to see it though Its just the songs and 3 interveiws best live album since Live in London 66,67. (Of Floyd) Its better than Ummagamma.

[Broken Arrow]

Their ok.....

I like some of their stuff but Neil's better

[Schyma]

I love 1\2 I hate 1\2 but I haven't listined to all of there stuff so....but not much desire to either.

[RNR]

1111th post! It's 1-tastic!

Anyway... How could you not like The Dead? I mean sure there are better bands but not many.

[guitrguy]

It scares me when KingOfDudes comes in the threads because I think he's monkeysonmars.
He is being monkeysonmars for Halloween

[Schyma]

When you gonna start the polls rock? (again)

[guitrguy]

Geuss who I am being for Halloween.

[magicbus]

Most of American Beauty just didn't interest me.

EDIT: Healey?

and go in chat.

[Schyma]

When do you think that shall be?

[Schyma]

^ wow thats a 1st

[RNR]

Geuss who I am being for Halloween.

Me?!?!

[guitrguy]

You get a cookie.

[RNR]

I'm so getting stagefrightken to remove those and disable your avatar function.

[guitrguy]

I thought you would be complimented.

[RNR]

1. You aren't the opinion's whore of truth, you elitist.
2. You don't like Jeff Healey.
3. The first two are bad enough!!!!!!

[Broken Arrow]

Is guitrguy posting because I cant see any of his post?!?!?

[Broken Arrow]

nevermind .....I figured out this cruel trick.

[Creedence Clearwater]

time to again through in my 2 cents......(checks wallet).........How can I possibly be down $300

[Badmoon]

Most of American Beauty just didn't interest me.

That's surprising.

[Broken Arrow]

Yeah I was sampling of "the site" and it wasnt that good.....however I liked Working man's Dead.

[Badmoon]

Can you give us some reasons why?

[RNR]

What's with all of the Jeff Healey/rocknotroll posers? Just because you have the avatar and the usertitle doesn't make you as good as me :mad:

And American beauty is an album that gets better every time you listen to it. Give it another chance or i'll choke you with a mullet.

[Broken Arrow]

Well maybe i'll give Mullet Magnolia another chance.

[Broken Arrow]

I like Working Man's Dead better because of : Cumberland Blues Speedway Boogie and this other song I can't reacal the name of.

I really liked those songs and I thought Uncle John's Band was good and another one I cant recall?

[Badmoon]

Well, there's plenty of good songs on each.

My favorite on American Beauty
-----------------------------
Sugar Magnolia
Ripple
Brokedown Palace
Operator

On Workingman's Dead
-----------------------------
Dire Wolf
Cumberland Blues
Easy wind
High Time


Though if you actually listen to the songs, run through the instrumental , tecnical and lyrical caulity (of each song), it's quite easy to see that each song is a 5/5 and each album is perfect.

[guitrguy]

Casuality?

[Badmoon]

Typo, "quality". Even if you sound it out, you should be able to get it :thumb:

:rolleyes:

[guitrguy]

Noticed, that B0nz0 metioned Big Star. I downloaded some and its good stuff.

[Badmoon]

I like Big Star. I have two of their albums.

[magicbus]

I'm not dissin anybody. I just didn't really like it. Too soft for me. Didn't get interested.

[guitrguy]

I just love folk so much.
I'm not dissin anybody. I just didn't really like it. Too soft for me. Didn't get interested.
who?

[Badmoon]

Big Star aren't folk.

[guitrguy]

They got the acoustic style which is similar to folk.

[Badmoon]

They usually play electric, but I doubt you've heard much. Since you said you were just downloading.

[guitrguy]

Well, ya I just happened to download their acoustic stuff.

[ToRidTheDisease]

big star doesnt seem folk to me

[RNR]

Yeah, some folk stuff but mostly electric *is downloading some stuff*

[Badmoon]

okay

I just bought Gov't Mule's "Rising Low" DVD. It's about all the guiest stars and times and such during the recordings of The Deep End serious. And is an overall biography and tribute their late bassist (who the whole Deep end is deadicated to) Allen Woody. It is documented and completley made by Mike Gordon (bassist of Phish).

The movie taught me a crap load about bass players, and playing. And especially how great some bassists like Woody, and other's are. And it's sad :(

I reccomend you all buy it!

[Seafroggys]

The movie taught me a crap load about bass players, and playing. And especially how great some bassists like Woody, and other's are. And it's sad :(

Jack Bruce all the way.

[Badmoon]

There was little on Jack Bruce though. :p

[RNR]

New polls are up! Vote and comment!

[RockAndRoll]

yay, I was waiting for them.

[Seafroggys]

There was little on Jack Bruce though. :p

I was just referring to good bass players in general. They are extreamly underrated.

[RockAndRoll]

I voted clapton and supertramp.

[Badmoon]

and that's why I added though ;)

and yes. But there were a lot more underrated players than Bruce on the DVD.

[Seafroggys]

There's this Tull song I've heard on the radio several times. I don't know what the name is.

I figured out one of the guitar riffs in the song on the keyboard. It approximately goes like this:

[G Ab Ab D Eb - - G ] [G Ab - Ab Ab Bb - - ]

Hopefully that makes sense.

[RockAndRoll]

I can't think of that many tull songs they play on the radio I thnik I've only heard

Aqualung
Locomotive Breath and
Thick as a Brick

on the radio

[Seafroggys]

I know its not Aqualung and Locomotive Breath. I don't think its Thick As a Brick...because its an actual song, and I think its earlier then Aqualung (I heard it on a Tull radio documentary, and they played it from an earlier album).

[lunch998]

My Sunday Feeling, Nothing Is Easy, A New Day Yesterday maybe?

Who do you guys think is the the better bassist, John Entwhistle or Jack Bruce?

[Seafroggys]

Jack Bruce. Even though Entwistle's work in My Generation during those little licks were ungodly.

But across the board, with all their songs, definitly Bruce.

[Woodstock]

Jack Bruce. Even though Entwistle's work in My Generation during those little licks were ungodly.

But across the board, with all their songs, definitly Bruce.
I think completely opposite. Watch John Entwistle play live, it'll blow your mind.

Not to mention he played like a God until his death, now that's a bass player.

[drugstore cowboy]

Entwistle, definitely. He was just really good on every song, in my opinion. Behind Blue Eyes, Won't Get Fooled Again (but everyone was at their best on that one), Getting in Tune...I pick Entwistle =p

[magicbus]

I love the quick bass fills on My Generation! So fast!

[RNR]

I love the quick bass fills on My Generation! So fast!

I love those too :). It's kind of Entwistle's lead bass song since there's no real solo.

[drugstore cowboy]

I'm on a CCR kick...Up Around the Bend has to have the coolest guitar riff ever..anyways, what do you guys think of CCR/John Fogerty? Real American roots rock and roll, in a time where people were getting really psychedelic...

[RNR]

i don't know about that, Run Through The Jungle has a really cool riff. Either way CCR rocks :thumb:

[lunch998]

Enwhistle on the Live at the Isle of Wight Dvd and Live at Leeds show that he is amazing, and why his is my favorite bass player. The end of Tales of Brave Ulysses gives major points to Bruce though.

[jpj]

All this talk of bas players while I'm gone, yet when I'm on there's nothing. I also prefer Entwhistle to Bruce, but not by much.

[thickasabrick]

i prefer entwhistle...but i havent seen enough of bruce to make a good judgement

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Entwhistle is awesome.

I was listening to "Who Are You?" the other day.

The drumming is brilliant in that song.

[jpj]

What do you guys think of Cobwebs and Strange. I love when the music stops and Moon just goes crazy.

[Badmoon]

I'm doing a review.

[jpj]

On what?

[Badmoon]

Ohh, let's just say it has 27 tracks, it's live and it's by one of my favorite bands.

[jpj]

Europe '72 by The Grateful Dead? I'm not sure how many tracks are on it.

[Badmoon]

No.

[thickasabrick]

Entwhistle is awesome.

I was listening to "Who Are You?" the other day.

The drumming is brilliant in that song.

The Who has great bass and drums, as well as great songwriting...i think that Pete could have worked a little harder when it came to guitar, instead of just like doing windmills and smashing stuff (not that he wasnt talented)

[Seafroggys]

I love Keith Moon. He's my favorite drummer.

My jazz band teacher hates it when I play fills, but every so often I decide to go "Keith Moon" on his *** and play some sweet lick here or there.

Who Are You? is one of Moon's finest.

I hate having an old geezer for a band teacher.

[jpj]

Hey! Geezer is the name of one of my favorite bassists, you shouldn't use it as an insult.

[thickasabrick]

Geezer is an amazing bassist, i think hes the first great bassist i actually recognized.


BADMOON I MISSED YOU!!!!! did you realize i was gone??

[jpj]

I love Geezer's really trebly and punchy tone. I can get it pretty good now, but you have to hit the strings hard as hell.

[Badmoon]

The Who has great bass and drums, as well as great songwriting...i think that Pete could have worked a little harder when it came to guitar, instead of just like doing windmills and smashing stuff (not that he wasnt talented)

He was a rythm guitarist though, he was there to complement.

And I did notice you were gone :)

[jpj]

He was a rythm guitarist though, he was there to complement.

And I did notice you were gone :)
I bet noone noticed I was gone :upset: Someone give me a CD to buy this weekend that I'll be able to find at Wal-Mart.

[ToRidTheDisease]

hey i know this is off topic, but can someone tell me who sings the song thats like "life been good" or something, its classic rock but has a sort of country vibe to it.

[InsaneDrummin]

My opinion....Rush is the best classic rock band ever. Still one of the best bands. Led Zeppelin kicks *** too. I love classic rock and metal, death metal...whole **** loads of stuff

[jpj]

Rush is awesome, but I don't know about best classic rock band ever. No CD suggestions?

[Badmoon]

Take your Death Metal, smuggle it outta here, or I'm going to shove it up your ***!!!!

[Badmoon]

No CD suggestions?

what bands are you currently interested in?

[jpj]

Take it easy he likes Rush too.

[jpj]

what bands are you currently interested in?
I'd like to hear more Neil Young. I'd also like to hear some Blue Cheer or The Band. Though I don't think I'll be able to find any of their stuff at Wal-Mart.

HOLY **** I HAVE 1,000 POSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I'm soooo glad it was in this thread! :thumb: :) :cool:

[InsaneDrummin]

Rush is awesome, but I don't know about best classic rock band ever. No CD suggestions?
Im not freaking out lol. Well yes CD suggestion check out Rush: Chronicles awesome CD..
Best classic Rock band...in my opinion...of of em

[InsaneDrummin]

Take your Death Metal, smuggle it outta here, or I'm going to shove it up your ***!!!! Ok........sry for liking different music......................... there are more than classic rock..
:rolleyes:

[ToRidTheDisease]

can someone answer my question?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

I don't think I've ever heard that with that description.

You were gone JPJ?

[jpj]

Actually I don't think anyone can. Maybe someone else will know because not a lot of the regulars are on.

[jpj]

I don't think I've ever heard that with that description.

You were gone JPJ?
Kinda...did you notice I have 1,000 posts?

[RNR]

^omghz 1000 for you. 7000 more and you will be as big a man as I ;)

Ok........sry for liking different music......................... there are more than classic rock..

Go ahead and like different music. I do. But just don't bring it into here please.

[jpj]

^omghz 1000 for you. 7000 more and you will be as big a man as I ;)




I'll never have the bigness of you. I saw a Jeff Healey Greatest Hits the other day, but I decided to buy Neil Young Live Rust. Think I made the right choice?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Those threads aren't spam. They're a little experiment which i'm not going to share you with, whore.

And i'd only say 4000 of my posts are spam :p

I'll never have the bigness of you. I saw a Jeff Healey Greatest Hits the other day, but I decided to buy Neil Young Live Rust. Think I made the right choice?

Yeah. But next time you have money buy a Healey cd.

[jpj]

the :naughty: one?
Oh yea :naughty:

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Oh yes, Rock, I forgot.

You shared the "site" with some noob who was like "Omgsh is led zeplin gud?"

I think you should be shamed.

[RNR]

If you had the cure for cancer, would you only share it with your friends and family?

[jpj]

No, but "the site" is different.

[RNR]

It's not "the site". It's a random site that has ****ty quality and in actual fact is quite well known so it's not like it's are little secret.

I even have it as my homepage.

[jpj]

Is anybody going to any concerts soon? I'm going to Gov't Mule next Saturday.

[keep on phishin']

I missed Gov't Mule last Thursday.

I regret it.

[jpj]

It's not "the site". It's a random site that has ****ty quality and in actual fact is quite well known so it's not like it's are little secret.

I even have it as my homepage.
I know, but it makes me feel special to call it "the site". We listen to it in school all the time.

[RNR]

Alice Cooper :cool:

edit: You're "special" enough already. Now do you want to be "speacial" and greedy at the same time or just one?

[jpj]

Cool :thumb:

I missed Van Halen, Rush, and The Allmans this summer :upset:

[jpj]

Alice Cooper :cool:

edit: You're "special" enough already. Now do you want to be "speacial" and greedy at the same time or just one?
I guess being "special" is enough. Wait by "special" do you mean retarded?

[jpj]

If you go to Vh1.com there is this online radio thing. It's awesome, there is a jamband station, a couple classic rock stations, and every other genre of rock. You don't even have to pay.

EDIT: oh **** triple post

[RNR]

You're not allowed to call me a spammer for 3 months now.

That Vh1 site is great :thumb:

[jpj]

I've never called you a spammer. Maybe I have I just can't remember. What's everyone's favorite song to listen to while driving?

[RNR]

Truckin'
Life is a highway
Roll On Down The Highway
Drive My Car

Ya dig?

[jpj]

I dig. I like Free Ride and Roadhouse Blues.

[clown_phobia]

hey rock not roll - are you still thinking about getting that Van Halen DVD?

[Illmatic]

I have to say that "Sweet Emotion" is the best driving song I've ever come across.

[RNR]

Yes, now stop asking me. You know i'm broke :(

[jpj]

I have to say that "Sweet Emotion" is the best driving song I've ever come across.
I love that song. Cool bass intro.

[clown_phobia]

Yes, now stop asking me. You know i'm broke :(

this is the first time i've revieved a response from you.... you ignored me about twice... :upset:

nevermind.

[Seafroggys]

I missed Deep Purple early September and some BOC in March. Pisses me off.

And I missed The Beatles when they came into town, but by 39 years.

[Badmoon]

Done with a review, it is quite large.

[rush_2112_mr.slow hands]

rush all the way, i mean there will probably never be a drummer as good as peart and lifeson is so under rated, and geddys voice will get u every time. theyre songs are more diverse than probably any band out there. thats wut music is missing, nowa days if u throw a couple songs togather that have power chords and u have an album

[jpj]

I agree that Rush is awesome, but there are drummers better than Peart. However they are dead, but that is beside the point. Bonham and Moon were both better than Peart, they were able to sound crazy without using a 100 piece set.

[RNR]

Whoever the hell drumms for Jeff Beck is better than Peart. But I mean, Rush is just so awesome it doesn't matter :)

[RockAndRoll]

You missed the best driving song of all time though!
I think you know what i'm talking about! *slides in a ZZ top cd and puts foot to the pedal*

*starts bobbing head and tapping them hands!*

I'm going to tull in 2 weeks ! :)

[lunch998]

I agree that Rush is awesome, but there are drummers better than Peart. However they are dead, but that is beside the point. Bonham and Moon were both better than Peart, they were able to sound crazy without using a 100 piece set.

I agree about Bonham and Moon, I even prefer Baker and Mitchell to Peart. However I find Rush overrated, their music doesn't appeal to me as much as it does so some people.

And one of my favorite songs to listen to while driving is Ramblin' Man by the Allmans.

[jpj]

I want to go to a Tull concert so bad, and ZZ Top is also great to drive to.

[jpj]

I agree about Bonham and Moon, I even prefer Baker and Mitchell to Peart. However I find Rush overrated, their music doesn't appeal to me as much as it does so some people.

And one of my favorite songs to listen to while driving is Ramblin' Man by the Allmans.
It's not so much that they're over rated it's just that their music doesn't appeal to you. The Grateful Dead does not appeal to me, but they are not over rated because I know they were all great musicians and songwriters. Geddy, Alex, and Neil are all at the top of their field when it comes to musicianship.

[rush_2112_mr.slow hands]

if any one is over rated its nivana

[rush_2112_mr.slow hands]

was styx even mentioned?

[Broken Arrow]

Best Driving tune??


Roadhouse Blues(already mentioned),Peace Frog is good, If it's raining Riders on the Strom.


And other stuff I can't think of/ :smoke: :smoke:

[lunch998]

Geddy, Alex, and Neil are all at the top of their field when it comes to musicianship.

Well by overrated I meant that their music doesn't appeal to me, and people rave on about how great Rush is a lot. Not taking away from any of their talent though.

[lunch998]

if any one is over rated its nivana

Not in here because we don't talk about Nirvana. Ever.

[lunch998]

Roadhouse Blues(already mentioned),Peace Frog is good, If it's raining Riders on the Strom.

All that really matters is that you put the pothead Smilies.

[RNR]

was styx even mentioned?

At some time they were.


Roadhouse Blues is just a great song to listen to any time any place :)

[jpj]

A lot of Allmans stuff is good to listen to while driving also.

[rush_2112_mr.slow hands]

but rush is one of the most tallented bands out there, hands downu take away the other two members and they can still play music. each and every one of them can play their instuments almost better than anyone

[Creedence Clearwater]

Not in here because we don't talk about Nirvana. Ever.

Thats good, thats very good

[Broken Arrow]

Wow , Neil won!:smoke:

[Broken Arrow]

At some time they were.


Roadhouse Blues is just a great song to listen to any time any place :)
Especailly midnight rider!

[RockAndRoll]

I don't like rush all that much but peart is a very solid player technically.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Whoever the hell drumms for Jeff Beck is better than Peart. But I mean, Rush is just so awesome it doesn't matter :)

That reminds me, is Jeck Beck on the site, I looked quickly but.....

[lunch998]

A lot of Allmans stuff is good to listen to while driving also.

Yea and once you put in Mountain Jam you don't have to worry about another song for 33 minutes.

[lunch998]

I don't like rush all that much but peart is a very solid player technically.

Oh yea I mean he's great. I just prefer Bonham and other older drummers I guess.

[jpj]

I love that song more than I love canolis, and that's a lot of love.

[RNR]

That reminds me, is Jeck Beck on the site, I looked quickly but.....

Nope :(. Yet they have some really undergroup bands on there.

[Broken Arrow]

Oh yea I mean he's great. I just prefer Bonham and other older drummers I guess.
Bonham, Moon Mitchell and Baker do it good for me:smoke:

[jpj]

I still can't get past the drum solo on the Zep DVD. It's so unbelievable.

[lunch998]

I love that song more than I love canolis, and that's a lot of love.

If your talking about Mountain Jam then yes. It is the most interesting half an hour song without lyrics, which says something about Duane Allman's sheer awesomeness.

(Ok so it's one of the few half an hour long songs, but still.)

[lunch998]

Bonham, Moon Mitchell and Baker do it good for me:smoke:

Thats my top 4. :smoke:

I had to join you for a smoke.

[jpj]

Yes, I was talking about Mountain Jam. It's got a cool bass solo too.

[lunch998]

I still can't get past the drum solo on the Zep DVD. It's so unbelievable.

Yea it's so great. Everytime I watch it I get inspired to play drums. Then I realize I can't do what he does. :upset:

[lunch998]

Yes, I was talking about Mountain Jam. It's got a cool bass solo too.

And a cool drum solo. Actually that song has it all.

[jpj]

Same thing with me every time I listen to Stu Hamm or even The Lemon Song. God I love this Vh1 radio thing, the Jam Band station is great.

[RockAndRoll]

Oh yea I mean he's great. I just prefer Bonham and other older drummers I guess.
me too.

[Mizuseishin]

I think that Queen has some awsome songs one great one is Bohemian Rhapsody. Then u have the ones everyone knows like we will rock u and we are the champions.

[RockAndRoll]

Yea it's so great. Everytime I watch it I get inspired to play drums. Then I realize I can't do what he does. :upset:
Ya, I watch it and I'm so inspired to go do it. And then I realise I could do it if only it weren't passed 9:00. ;)

[lunch998]

Same thing with me every time I listen to Stu Hamm or even The Lemon Song. God I love this Vh1 radio thing, the Jam Band station is great.

It also happens to me during Achilles :lol:

[RockAndRoll]

It also happens to me during Achilles :lol:
it happens to me soooo much. Aja always does it to me.

[lunch998]

Ya, I watch it and I'm so inspired to go do it. And then I realise I could do it if only it weren't passed 9:00. ;)

I can do some parts, but I can't do what he does with the hands. And my heel-toe is nowhere near as fast as his.

[RockAndRoll]

I can do some parts, but I can't do what he does with the hands. And my heel-toe is nowhere near as fast as his.
I've never actually tried doing what he does there.

[jpj]

It also happens to me during Achilles :lol:
How many times do I have to tell you Lemon>Achilles :p :lol: I can play the first part to The Lemon Song up until it gets fast, then I **** up.

[lunch998]

I've never actually tried doing what he does there.

It's quite difficult.

[RockAndRoll]

How many more times and good times bad times are better than those

[RockAndRoll]

It's quite difficult.
I imagine it would be. Although if I may say so
me on the ocean > bonham on the ocean. :p

[lunch998]

I can play most of Achilles, but then Bonham has this crazy beat towards the end. I'm still having trouble figuring out what is even going on there.

[jpj]

Better than The Lemon Song and Achilles? Better than Achilles yes. > or = to The Lemon Song.

[lunch998]

I imagine it would be. Although if I may say so
me on the ocean > bonham on the ocean. :p

Bonham on the HTWWW Ocean is much better than the original studio version.

[RockAndRoll]

Better than The Lemon Song and Achilles? Better than Achilles yes. > or = to The Lemon Song.
= to perhaps, I suppose.

[lunch998]

How Many More Times is great, what an underrated song. But they don't compare in epicness to Achilles. Thats what separates it apart from most of thier other songs.( I do generally prefer the earlier stuff to their later material)

[RockAndRoll]

Bonham on the HTWWW Ocean is much better than the original studio version.
Yes quite, I should watch that again soon. Bonham's later drumming is often to much "cleaner" shall we say, it seems much more spread out and empty(not to say it's bad just the best way I know to describe it). But in concerts he can do a good job of putting the kick back into it.

[RockAndRoll]

How Many More Times is great, what an underrated song. But they don't compare in epicness to Achilles. Thats what separates it apart from most of thier other songs.( I do generally prefer the earlier stuff to their later material)
Ya, achilles is quite the epic.

[lunch998]

Ya, achilles is quite the epic.

For some reason thats the part of it that strikes a nerve with me. I guess not everyone feels that way about it. But as far as the early Zeppelin, How Many More Times and Good Times Bad Times are some of the best. When I first heard those triplets in GTBT I was amazed.

[jpj]

Achilles is definitly a very epic song, but there are many other songs I'd prefer to listen to.

[RockAndRoll]

For some reason thats the part of it that strikes a nerve with me. I guess not everyone feels that way about it. But as far as the early Zeppelin, How Many More Times and Good Times Bad Times are some of the best. When I first heard those triplets in GTBT I was amazed.
Ya, everybody loves the triplets, i think it's the most recognized drumming part of that song. But if you listen to it it's actually all around a very good drumming song (as well as just song).

[jpj]

I am not a drummer so don't have a ****ing clue what you're talking about. This thread needs another bassist. We could talk about the really cool bass fills on GTBT.

[lunch998]

Ya, everybody loves the triplets, i think it's the most recognized drumming part of that song. But if you listen to it it's actually all around a very good drumming song (as well as just song).

The beat without them is still cool. Theres a real kickass part in the fade-out that most people probably don't hear. It's around 2:40 and it's not even that great, but Bonham plays it so it sounds so cool.

[RockAndRoll]

I am not a drummer so don't have a ****ing clue what you're talking about. This thread needs another bassist. We could talk about the really cool bass fills on GTBT.
nothing ever needs another bassist ;). Just kidding.

[jpj]

Don't toy with my emotions.

Ya, it's not just your regular beat which I love. Speaking of fade outs I love baker in Whiteroom, especially the fade out, but I love his bass drum sound throughout it sounds like a floor tom or something the way it's done.

[lunch998]

I am not a drummer so don't have a ****ing clue what you're talking about. This thread needs another bassist. We could talk about the really cool bass fills on GTBT.

Yea those are cool. I really like the bass riff during the guitar solo in Dazed and Confused.

[jpj]

I can play that :) :thumb: It's really fun to play.

[RockAndRoll]

Don't toy with my emotions.
Here I'll tell a drummer joke to make up for it.

How do you know when a drummers at your door?

He doesn't knock on time and never knows when to come in.

Wow man, that is one of my favorite jams to end a song ever. I love that double kick at around 4:30, I wish that jam went on for another minute or so.

[jpj]

:lol: I like it :thumb:

[RockAndRoll]

I love the drum part in the outro of the solo, I just love it so much. It's a fun song to play in general. Edit: Talking about Dazed and Confused.

[ToRidTheDisease]

im going to misfits and cooper

[lunch998]

Speaking White Room, Tales of Brave Ulysses is very similar. The bass drum doesn't sound as cool, but it's still very good. Plus Jack Bruce's bass line at the end of that song is one of my favorite bass parts ever.

I know, That song was just so wonderfully written.

Yea, if your talking about the when Page is playing the guitar chords, and then Bonham goes around on the toms, that is one of my favorite parts to play.

Plus Jack Bruce's bass line at the end of that song is one of my favorite bass parts ever.That song is awesome I like the intro. With the cymbal rolls and such. The lyrics are amazing as well. Hmmm, Ulysses, Achilles, what's classic rock and the greeks?

[lunch998]

A great Bonham drumming song is I Can't Quit You Babe, the soundcheck at Royal Albert Hall version. It's got the classic Bonham bass drum amazing speed, and at the end you get his cool little "Rock and Roll" ending.

[jpj]

I like the drums in Rock and Roll, but I'm uneducated drum-wise.

[lunch998]

I don't know, but those happen to be two of my favorite songs ever.

[RockAndRoll]

Yea, if your talking about the when Page is playing the guitar chords, and then Bonham goes around on the toms, that is one of my favorite parts to play.
That part and right before he plays on the toms he changes his pattern for 8 bars, I think it's 8. I loooooooove that drum part, so simple yet so effective.

[RockAndRoll]

I like them too and I'm not uneducated.

I really need to watch the dvd again.

[lunch998]

Rockandroll, do you own the newer Zeppelin Dvd? If you do my favorite drumming parts on it (aside from Moby Dick) come from the radio promotion show in black in white, it's one of the extras. Bonham is playing a 4-piece but he still manages to get his awesome sound and power. (The part in Dazed and Confused we were just talking about is especially cool there.)

[jpj]

Man, if only I would have stayed with drums I'd have something to say in this conversation.

I do own it indeed. I love those black and white ones in general, they're well done visually and musically.

[lunch998]

You gave up drums for bass? Tsk Tsk. Anyways I gave you my favorite bass part (Tales of Brave Ulysses fade-out) and you didn't respond. I tried to include you.

[jpj]

I've never heard the song :upset:

[lunch998]

I've never heard the song :upset:

It's a must hear. Now. Go buy Disraeli Gears if you have to.

[RockAndRoll]

Man, if only I would have stayed with drums I'd have something to say in this conversation.
Haha, at least we're not talk about how I started doing some drumline moves while doing my hand and foot polyrhythms.

[RockAndRoll]

I've never heard the song :upset:
I am shocked.

[lunch998]

Haha, at least we're not talk about how I started doing some drumline moves while doing my hand and foot polyrhythms.

Yea thats just unfair.

[lunch998]

Thats another thing I love about Bonzo. The Bass-Floor-Mid tom triplets. Those things are cool once you get them going.

[jpj]

I am shocked.
Don't worry the site has saved the day.
*is listening to it right now

[RockAndRoll]

Yea thats just unfair.
I hate how no one (our age anyways) but drummers have any idea what you're talking about when you start talking about stuff like polyrhythms. They all just give you a blank stare as you try to explain to them what you're working on.

[lunch998]

Don't worry the site has saved the day.

Yes! The bass part actually gets louder at about 2:20.

[jpj]

Hey now! I only played drums for a year gimme a break.

Also Ulysses>Achilles

[Seafroggys]

Ginger Baker's basses just sounded like toms period. They were dead and tuned high. Not my thing, but is cool and unique in its own right.

Did anybody notice that the bass drum changes sound after that double bass lick in White Room?

Also, the live version has a much longer outro. if you watch Cream's Finale Concert, it shows Clapton going on with the solo for like 3 minutes :D

Yea but I guess guitarists, or anything other musician, could talk about certain technical stuff that we wouldn't understand.

[RockAndRoll]

Thats another thing I love about Bonzo. The Bass-Floor-Mid tom triplets. Those things are cool once you get them going.
I am such a fan of his quick triplet fills, ever since I learned them they've been a favourite of mine.

[RockAndRoll]

Ya, I'm pretty knowledgable about music theory though. I just wish i had someone to explain stuff to when something cool comes along.

I have the version on the Strange Brew Dvd wear Clapton solos are much longer on every song. Jack Bruce looks like he is playing the lead guitar solo sometimes because he is all over the neck.

[lunch998]

Yea the work well in fills, and other times I just like to start them slow and speed up and keep them going for awhile. It's just fun.

[RockAndRoll]

Crossroads live on wheels of fire is awesome.

[lunch998]

Ya, I'm pretty knowledgable about music theory though. I just wish i had someone to explain stuff to when something cool comes along.

People should be able to figure out polyrythms though. Poly=many.

[jpj]

I'd rather listen to Bruce doing the bass line during a solo, then listening to the actual solo. But that's just me.

One of the best guitar solos ever.

Seeing clapton live was amazing, what a musician, and what musicians he was with.

[lunch998]

I'd rather listen to Bruce doing the bass line during a solo, then listening to the actual solo. But that's just me.

Because his Bass lines could be the lead instrument at any given time, he's so good.

[RockAndRoll]

Ya, I love jack's bass lines.

[jpj]

What's weird is even if it was just a mediocre bassist I'd rather listen to it. For some reason guitar solos don't interest me.

I think it's because guitar solos have become such a standard part of most rock songs, that its hard to find the good ones. A lot of them become unoriginal and generic.

[jpj]

I'm watching a Wooten video now. It's so awesome. One day I hope to tap on a fretless such as he.

Ya I like them, but every song is too much if you ask me.

[Seafroggys]

Guitar solos are cool, but nothing beats bass licks and solos......or best of all drum solos (after all, that's my instrument)

Inna gadda daveda has alot of solos.

Inna gadda daveda has alot of solos.

Do What You Like - Blind Faith has all four solos (Guitar, Bass, Keyboards, Drums.) Unfortunately Rick Grech cannont compare at all with Jack Bruce and his bass solo is definitely lacking.

When your bass drums are 11 inches deep, it is probably very easy for them to sound dead. I kind of like it because it was Ginger's style and it worked for him.

[Orange Fog]

Pink Floyd (My #1!)
Led Zeppelin
Van Morrison
Van Halen
The Doors
The Beatles
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Jimi Hendrix
Jethro Tull
Kansas

[StreetlightRock]

Ya I like them, but every song is too much if you ask me.

Heh, then everyone asks 'Wheres the solo?!'

DVG.

[RNR]

A guitar solo doesn't make the song. It just adds to it. Every song should have some sort of guitar solo, no matter how good it already is.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Sorry, even though this is a few pages ago, The Vh1 thing is awesome.

I'm listening to the Jam Rock thing.

It's so great.

Edit: Was that just bob dylan and the Grateful Dead I just heard?

[Badmoon]

I just learned all of "Casey Jones" on guitar.

[jpj]

That and Shakedown Street are the only Grateful Dead songs I like. And the Jam Rock Station on Vh1 is the greatest.

[Badmoon]

You haven't hear enough.

[jpj]

I've heard American Beauty, Working Man's Dead, Shakedown Street, and some of Europe '72.

[Badmoon]

I stick by my previous comment.

[magicbus]

Is the Jam Station really all that great?

[jpj]

Yes

[magicbus]

hmm...

[jpj]

Have you listened to it? If not go now. You won't be dissappointed.

[Broken Arrow]

So much drum talk.

How bout Bill ward underarted if you ask me (no pothead smilie)

[jpj]

Yea I was very lost in that conversation.

[Seafroggys]

So much drum talk.

How bout Bill ward underarted if you ask me (no pothead smilie)

Yes. ward and Ian Paice most definitly. Also Clive Bunker.

Btw, earlier I was asking what this unknown Jethro Tull song was. Well, I just found out it was Bungle in the Jungle (typed in Jethro Tull in my P2P proggie, got the top unknown song on that list). Good times

[jpj]

I love that song, and yes Ward is a very under rated drummer.

[Woodstock]

I think I should try out that Jam station....
