Classic Rock

[Seafroggys]

Scratch that, it wasn't Bungle in the Jungle. I just listened to it, and it was another song that was played before the one song I'm trying to figure out. Good song nevertheless.

I remember one of the lines in like the chorus of this mystery song was "Hey Man, what's your plan?" or something along those lines.

[goesbumpinthenight]

Wtf. OmG leik the darkness is bringing back clasik roxorz!!

if thats true, classic rock is DOOMED!!!

i cannot STAND the darkness.

[drugstore cowboy]

yikes, so behind...1. in moby dick, bonham just does the bass, floor, tom triplets for a couple minutes...it just gets louder and louder and faster..insane..Moon's bass drums were awesome..he had the double bass, but he hardly ever did any real patterns..he just hit them both at the same time =p

2. the greatest driving song EVER is green onions by booker t and the mg's. it's just so cool...

[MalcolmYoungRock]

if thats true, classic rock is DOOMED!!!

i cannot STAND the darkness.

Most likely you quoted rock because he's the only one in the thread who talks like that :lol:

He was being sarcastic.

[ToRidTheDisease]

i like the darkness a little bit, but they aren't bringing back classic rock, also i hate people calling a genre "classic rock", classic rock is just classic rock

[Badmoon]

It is a genre though. There are certain characteristics it hold that other's don't.

[jpj]

Music can't be classic rock if it's new. And I'm pretty sure rock said that.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Music can't be classic rock if it's new. And I'm pretty sure rock said that.
yeah, thats what i mean

[Badmoon]

Music can't be classic rock if it's new. And I'm pretty sure rock said that.

Yes it can. Gov't Mule for example.

[magicbus]

They have a "classic rock" style, but they aren't classic rock.

[jpj]

Yes it can. Gov't Mule for example.
In 15 years you can call Gov't Mule classic rock.

A smart one you are.

*Just got Neil Young- Harvest on cd :cool:*

[keep on phishin']

I got Harvest for 4 bucks.

It stilll puzzles me why someone would sell that to begin with

[jpj]

I got my Neil CD for 6.

[RNR]

Sheeshers, I paid 10. That's still cheap though :)

[Creedence Clearwater]

A smart one you are.

*Just got Neil Young- Harvest on cd :cool:*

Thats one of the CDs that i just took when my mum wasn't looking.

[Woodstock]

I'm going to a record show tomorrow, I'll scrounge around.

[RNR]

Thats one of the CDs that i just took when my mum wasn't looking.

:lol:

Well actually I borrow my mom's record of it. Or atleast I did until it got it on cd :D

[Woodstock]

My dad has a good bit of records too, but nowhere near 2000.

You would be surprised at just what CDs records etc. your parents have, thanks to my dad I have never bought any led zep or mark Knopfler.

Do you classify Knopfler as classic, either way I like him, he is coming to Australia but only doing one show so iits real expensive, hopefully I will somehow end up going.

[Creedence Clearwater]

But what about how many cds records do you personally own?

I tell you but I will what for you first.

I sure as hell do. My dad has some of his stuff but i've bought one of his albums (the newest one called Shangri-La) with my own money.

[Badmoon]

They have a "classic rock" style, but they aren't classic rock.

Okay, a band has a techno style, they're techno, it's the same thing.

[Creedence Clearwater]

And I though I killed the thread, Oh yeah I only own 500.

[Badmoon]

In 15 years you can call Gov't Mule classic rock.

:rolleyes:

[RNR]

Who cares if they aren't classic rock? They have the style to be and that's all that matters.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

My parents don't own any records/ cds.

The only cd i've ever had to steal was the Doobie Brothers from my mom.

I suck :upset:

Me too.

Could you elaborate on your 2nd to last post Creedence?

[Creedence Clearwater]

Me too.

Could you elaborate on your 2nd to last post Creedence?

I would love to.

I implied that when your parents where your age, what is today's "classic rock" was all around, yet now they have no records or cds or anything to show for it. In short, they missed out. :thumb: :amaze: :thumb: :D

[jpj]

I get it :naughty:

[Creedence Clearwater]

Me too.

Could you elaborate on your 2nd to last post Creedence?

I always say 2nd last but you said 2nd to last, is it because I am from a different country?

[jpj]

I've only heard people say 2nd to last :naughty:

[Woodstock]

Yes, yes it is.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Yes, yes it is.

Confirmation is all I needed, now to crawl back into my straight jacket.

:inserts large sarcasm smily :

[snare]

i really like Pink Floyd, I think their album Dark Side of the Moon is excellent. Also Led Zep are really great, jimi hendrix, the doors, the eagles, bachman/turner overdrive, zztop, some of queen, metallica, neil young and crosby/stills/nash/young, eric clapton...can't beat the old music man. I mean most of today's rock (unless it's old bands that are stil going like The Cure) are just really annoying. They all have the same chord progressions, same adolescent guy singers with screechy whiny voices complaining about something, and all you hear are distorted guitars and punk drumbeats. The Darkness are all right..can't think of any other new bands that have any great talent or sound.

I know. I just tried to wake up this thread, it was pretty dead today.

So, I'm going to a record show...

You should buy some records...and give them to me.

I'm going to a Gov't Mule show.

[Woodstock]

Well, I'm going to a better one in two weeks, but it's still a record show.

I'll see what I can find.

Yes.

Anyone recommend a first Velvet Underground cd? I was making a garage rock mix and downloaded some.

[the mighty zep]

I saw the Australian Pink Floyd Show, for anybody interested, and they really know how to put on a concert.

Even though there internacional and tour in mostly arenas, they got some crappy theatre here in Philadelphia that ive never heard of before, but still was very impressive. They covered the entire DSOTM album, Played Shine On (parts I-V), Welcome to the machine, WYWH, a few songs from the wall, and about one from every other album, except a few. They had some of Floyds material nailed in songs like Us and Them, Breathe, ANother Brick, and Run Like Hell, and the last song was COmfortably numb, which they played an incredible guitar solo for about 10 minutes. The vocalist for the Great Gig was outragous, beyond belief, and since the room was so small, everything together was frikkin loud as hell. They tied the Pink Kangaroo into alot of their visual effects, like the cover to WYWH, those random hyrogliphic symbols, and inflated a huge Kangaroo during one of their songs.

My only issues were that their wasnt much action going on, aside from the lasers and stuff, since the members just stood their the whole time and did their thing...and the audience loved it, but you could barely tell since they just sat quietly in their seats most the time, except for some crazy dude acroos the row frikkin headbanging to every song, from money to Welcome to the machine. They didnt play any songs from animals, which i sort of wanted to hear.

but overall, id say their worth watching. Tix were only 37 bucks for a really good view, and theyre probably the best thing to see sincet he real floyd wont be reuniting anytime soon (dont give me any of that Q magazine crap)

[StreetlightRock]

I saw the Australian Pink Floyd Show, for anybody interested, and they really know how to put on a concert.

Ive been looking at their tour dates since forever, hopefully when i move back to Aus at the end of the year the'll come over and play. There based in England apparently =/

Also, what do you guys think of Simon and Garfunkle?

DVG.

I finally got Aqualung and Deep Purple's Greatist Hits. (I'm usually against greatest hits, but it was all I could find so I decided to buy it.)

[StreetlightRock]

d'amn, you should have looked out for 'Burn', they remastered it and 're-released' a annerversery version of it recentally.

I heart Simons voice.

DVG.

Yea I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend more money to buy a few of their individual albums offline. I don't know if I like Deep Purple enough to buy them though.

[StreetlightRock]

Fairy' 'nuff. That said, Burn is an amazing song. The way its constructed on the guitar is great, its so simple yet sounds so awsome.

Yea all the songs are pretty good. It all kind of sounds the same to me a little bit. Therefore, just the greatist hits CD is enough for now.


Ooh Lucky 7's.

[Woodstock]

At the record show, I picked up these, both on vinyl:

Santana 1(still factory sealed)

CSN s/t

[Seafroggys]

I finally got Aqualung and Deep Purple's Greatist Hits. (I'm usually against greatest hits, but it was all I could find so I decided to buy it.)

**** you! I was wanting to get Aqualung and a Deep Purple album too! Didn't have the money for both, didn't have the money for Aqualung, but I got Deep Purple in Rock instead (way better then any Greatest Hits crap, but you have to go to one of those large underground CD stores to do it)

[jpj]

Machine Head is a kick *** album
Aqualung is a really kick *** album

[RNR]

Tull> Deep Purple

Simple mathamatics my friends.

[Woodstock]

*seconded*

Deep Purple are very very overrated.
Actually, I think they're both overated. Deep Purple moreso.

[thickasabrick]

tull is way better than deep purple in my opinion. most people only look at aqualung because its their most mainstream album, but they have lots of great blues and folk albums as well...they mastered every genre of music. in '88 they won best metal band for some thing, which was like twenty years after they formed.

[RNR]

*seconded*

Deep Purple are very very overrated.
Add one more very to that and you have yourself a deal ;)

[jpj]

I agree. This is why Machine Head=kick *** album, while Aqualung=really kick *** album. The really changes everything.

Lets combine our brain power.

[jpj]

Hmm...I can't think of anything :upset:

[RNR]

Yes, holy fux0rz only 26 poss in 10 hours :rolleyes:


What does everyone think of odd instuments being used in rock? Like Tull's flute or The Grateful dead's banjo playing. Or even the bagpipes in ac/dc's "it's a long way to the top (if you want to rock n roll)".

I personally think that the reason why today's rock music is slipping is because of lack of addition instruments. It's just guitar, bass drums now.

Discuss the advantages in Rock music of uncommon instruments to it.

[jpj]

I think Tull's flute adds a lot to their music. I honestly don't think Thick As a Brick would be nearly as good without it.

[Woodstock]

Yes, holy fux0rz only 26 poss in 10 hours :rolleyes:

Perfect Example: Pink Floyd

They used so many odd intruments, it's impossible to count.

[RockAndRoll]

Odd instruments are great, They're different and different is good. You can't just do the same old thing over and over, it gets boring. The music must change! Whether it's instruments or song structure or whatever.

[Broken Arrow]

I haven't posted much this weekend.

Anyways Im know its not odd but I love harmonica in music,

Not enough Harmonica.:(

Also Marimba in "Under My Thumb"

AND EVERYONE loves the sitar!!

[RockAndRoll]

I like supertramp's use of instruments.

[jpj]

The sitar in Paint It Black is awesome.

[RockAndRoll]

I would like to learn some more instruments.

I can play the drum set very well, I can play and write some piano, and i can play a bunch of orchestral percussion. Hopefully I'll be getting and learning to play a djembe soon too.

[jpj]

I can play Jingle Bells on the piano :cool: I'd like to learn how to play the mandolin or some eastern string instrument.

[Woodstock]

I can play A Day In The Life on piano.

[Bluesman522]

I saw thing thing, a keyboard sitar, i want one so bad now.

Hi... I am 13 and LOVE classic rock. I just went to the van halen concert recently, and it was awsome...me and a couple of kids hang out and litin to classic rock..it is making a comeback... think about jet, darkness, and franz ferdinand...its coming BACK!

Nor is Jet's "riff thefts" really bringing it back...but give a n00b a break...

[Woodstock]

Lets talk about Bob Marley. He's never talked about, and he was an amazing songwriter.

I'm surprised no one has done any reviews of his albums.

[drugstore cowboy]

Heh..Is it Jet, or is it the Guess Who?
I think more bands should have a keyboardist...like a Hammond Organ..those kicked ***...

And I sort of like Bob Marley..not my favourite..

[Kurt_Lee_Young]

I really like Classic Rock too, I haven't listened to any new stuff for about 2 weeks now! And like the past 5 Cd's I've bought have been classic stuff like Van Halen, The Doors, and The Rolling Stones.

It doesn't matter which song. Their whole album is a total rip on various classic rock bands. It's so generic and crappy. maybe i'd like it if they had some decent guitar solos.

That's because there is no mullet in my new one. It's just long-ish everywhere. Hense, no mullet.

Although, Hell To Pay>See The Light. I may switch back, i'm still deciding.

[jpj]

The Darkness are far better than Jet though. They're not exactly original, but they're music is more fun to listen to, and, as a band, they're definitely more talented.
I actually like The Darkness, but they're have no where near the amount of talent of any classic rock band.

[Kevbo]

at my school they made our theme for the year "rockin' with pride," so at assemblies and stuff they play rock instead of rap now. it kicks ***.

as for classic rock, i have to say that the doors are probably on top of my list.

[thickasabrick]

i think jets music is just good for a fun time...no real musical credibility or songwriting skills are shown, but at least they are trying to do something.

[TerryThorne]

If you heard their new single they take a line from a Beatle's song word for word. And its not a cover

[drugstore cowboy]

Jet's "Rollover DJ" is very similar to the Guess Who's "Takin' Care of Business"...and also the name is 'similar' to Mr. Berry's song..

Speaking of school anthems, our team name is the St. Mary's Thunder. So guess which song we get to listen to?..at every sporting event..and every assembly...on every announcements...over, and over, and over again...

[thickasabrick]

I don't even think it's catchy though, as I'd be prepared to listen to it otherwise...seriously, stuff like The Darkness, out of newer bands, and Queen, out of older ones, fill that role so much better that I don't see any need for Jet. And they are just so shamelessly unoriginal that I'd rather listen to the song they ripped off.

ya thats true. the darkness arent exactly original, they havent done anything new in their music...but at least they have talent and arent afraid of showing it, unlike most bands around now who even if they have talent, they dont really show it.

[thickasabrick]

anyone here read poetry just because you know it inspired a musician you like?

i have read a lot of Arthur Rimbauds poems because Jim Morrison was a big fan of his. and today i went and got out a collection of Dylan Thomas poems because thats where bob dylan took his last name from.
any other poets/artists you guys know who have inspired someone you like?

edit- may sound lame, but if it worked for them, it might work for me.

[Badmoon]

You guys should download some stuff from Wilco. They are an Alt (loosely concerning early days) Country band. And are from Chicago!

[Badmoon]

Thanks guys...and I'm looking forward to getting into much more classic rock now that I've been exposed to, and liked, the Grateful Dead.

Good.


I'm thinking about writing up an essay stating why The Grateful Dead are better than any band anyone can name.

[RNR]

I would be interested to hear your urguemetns, examples and supporting statements.

But don't post it on mx or else you will get alot of "Lol liek metlica ledz zepoil r teh beter lol" posts.

Yea, of course it will be mostly opinion, but they covered a lot of ground, and I've heard tons to make a great argument.

I want to learn (more) piano, harmonica, sitar, slide guitar, and I think thats it. I don't feel like commenting on anything else, except I'll check out the polls.

[Badmoon]

Well, good luck. Sitar is such a lifestyle, and so hard to find lessons.

And I consider myself okay at slide. Well, more so than the other's I know.

[magicbus]

Yea I've fooled around with a bottleneck slide, and I'm gettin the hang of it, but I wanna try pedal slide too.

ALSO. Anybody listen to The Zombies?

[thickasabrick]

i have a slide, although i have really learned any good songs on it other than In My Time of Dying. it sounds so sloppy when i play it though.

i would kill for a sitar

and i have a harmonica, although its weird and it doesnt have a certain key so i cant play it the way the internet tries to tell me.

[Seafroggys]

I can play A Day In The Life on piano.

I assume its the last chord. Do you know what chord that is?

And for thou who said it....songwriting is so fun! I've written 40+ rock songs in the past 4 years entirely on my computer (full score and everything).

We need to do the same thing and share our music, see how classic rock influenced it is!

[RockAndRoll]

The last chord is probably not an 'actual' chord, just a made up one for the sake of getting that dissonant sound they wanted.

Time of the Seasons...

Badmoon how's that banjo fingerpicking coming along?

[guitrguy]

I love to make up chords on guitar (as far as I know anyways).

I'm getting some harmonicas this week from Musician's Friend.

[IAJP]

I want to learn (more) piano, harmonica, sitar, slide guitar, and I think thats it. I don't feel like commenting on anything else, except I'll check out the polls.
I play slide guitar...:cool:

[Badmoon]

Badmoon how's that banjo fingerpicking coming along?

Tough, but progressivley good. I need a new thunmb pick, but I have came along with my metal finger picks.

Speaking of Slide Guitar, I learned Statesboro Blues a while back. Took me a long time :)


San Andreas comes out today :D

[guitrguy]

GTA is overrated. I always get bored with it.

[Badmoon]

GTA is overrated. I always get bored with it.

It's still fun. Enough of your bitching :angry:

[guitrguy]

Its not that is not fun, but how long it stay fun (which usually is only a week or so).

[RockAndRoll]

That's cool Badmoon, I'd like to hear you play sometime. You're the only banjoist I know.

[Schyma]

I have a freind that says he has a sitar

[RockAndRoll]

well lets see, everytime you go over does he say it's at the cleaners?

[Schyma]

I dont know he's Indian

[Woodstock]

I assume its the last chord. Do you know what chord that is?

And for thou who said it....songwriting is so fun! I've written 40+ rock songs in the past 4 years entirely on my computer (full score and everything).

We need to do the same thing and share our music, see how classic rock influenced it is!
No, I can play more than the ending E.

I play the main chord sequence: G Bm Em Em7 C Em etc.

[thickasabrick]

i looked all around the city for a sitar that i can play, but no music stores have them and wouldnt order one it. i guess i need to find someone who owns one.

[RNR]

I intend t learn to play harmonica, mandolin and slide guitar. Then I can form a blue-grass band and move to Texas yall.

Or, no. But I am learning those instruments.

[Broken Arrow]

I have an Indian friend and his sister might get a sitar!!

I want to play it sooo bad(if she gets it)

Anyways who did you vote for?

Me..Sabbath

[Dark Hero]

The Zombies

Yes!!! I'm surprised to mentioned them, last time I mentioned them in this thread no one really liked them. :upset:

[lunch998]

Yes!!! I'm surprised to mentioned them, last time I mentioned them in this thread no one really liked them. :upset:

Last time I said I like them, and I still like them. One of my dad's favorite bands.

[thickasabrick]

I've never heard of the Zombies...any info?

[RockAndRoll]

Time of the seasons

[Badmoon]

Harmonica is not usually used in Bluegrass, but Rusted Root use it in their Bluegrass songs.

[RockAndRoll]

You know who's good.....

Procol Harum

[MalcolmYoungRock]

You guys should download some stuff from Wilco. They are an Alt (loosely concerning early days) Country band. And are from Chicago!


Badmoon'd :lol: '

But anyway...

I missed a lot.

Jet stole a lot of riffs and lyrics.

The Darkness/ Franz Ferdinand are NOT bringing back classsic rock.

Teenagers are :p

I'd like to read your essay on The Grateful Dead whenever you write it Badmoon

[guitrguy]

I don't even bother anymore.

[drugstore cowboy]

Agreed Rock. Procol Harum is good. And thank you for bringing it up, they're going on my album list =p It's getting bigger, but I haven't gotten off my *** and bought anything yet.

We skipped the light fandango...=p

[RockAndRoll]

Wow, someone else here actually knows who they are! yay!

[RNR]

I've heard Conquistador now. Twas very good :thumb:

[BillCosby]

So, I saw Paul McCartney and Neil Young saturday...

Not to mention Tony Bennett, RHCP, Ben Harper, Sonic Youth, and Los Lonely Boys.

All acoustic, over 8 hours. ****ing great.
Surprisingly, Tony Bennett got the most applause, and was the only one to do an encore.

Lucky kid, :upset:. I can't even think of something that I wouldn't do to go to that concert.

I only drove for almost 7 hours to get there and stayed two nights in a hotel.

Only a 40 dollar lawn ticket though, that was good.
I forgot, Eddie Vedder was a special guest.

[rock_drummer]

U2!!!!!! Most influencial band ever.

[Seafroggys]

The last chord is probably not an 'actual' chord, just a made up one for the sake of getting that dissonant sound they wanted.

No, its an E Major chord. There is no dissanense whatssoever.

E Major was also the chord during the 17'th/18th century that represented heaven. An interesting thought in case any of you didn't know.

[clown_phobia]

e major is a way overused chord.

[Creedence Clearwater]

e major is a way overused chord.

only when played open, I reckon going from G to Cadd9 is way overused.

[Diatonic Dissonance™]

Yeah, everyone's getting into them now because they listen to "Jet" and they think "wowzorz dis is teh gr8 moosikzorz /me wil listen 2 sum oda rock n rool."

Now all we need is a band to do that to metal music!

[StreetlightRock]

^ i LOVE Cadd9!! It was like my first chord progession i made up when i first started play guitar, somehting like G, Cadd9 then some strange D and E.

Besides. Wonderwall had Cadd9 in it. :p

DVG.

[Creedence Clearwater]

I will accept it only it is your barreing G and then hammer the cadd9 barre in third position, I suppuse that sounds cool.

[magicbus]

Yea The Zombies are sweet. Download "Time of Season", bad *** keyboard solo. I'm making a "garage band" mix, with like Velvet Underground, The Beatles, The Stooges, MC5, stuff like that. (Just gritty stuff from the 60's) Any other song suggestions?

I'm gettin GTA today. I love it. Don't care what anyone else thinks. :D

I also have guitar lessons tonight, but I'm working with scales now, not chords. Just finished all the modes and I'm working with harmonic and melodic minor scales today.

That's it! :thumb:

[jpj]

What do you guys think of Yes-The Ladder I got it last night I got for $5, and I think that it's great.

I also got GTA last night because I'm special.

[magicbus]

Haven't heard that one yet.

I'm getting it for $15 because I'm special. :p

[jpj]

Are you really or are you toying with my young undeveloped mind?

[V0oDo0]

you should listen to " eagles of death metal" its a qotsa 's sattelite band i got thier album its amazing www.eaglesofdeathmetal.net

btw i m huge stoner rock fan but/so i really like classic rock too
especialy when i listen to the radio nowadays i always dream i was born in the 60' lol.....at least for the music ^^

[Jerm]

It's aaallllll about the Floyd.

[Killseng]

It's aaallllll about the Floyd.

Disagree. It's all about Skynard.

[jpj]

You're both wrong. It's all about the benjamins :p































:upset:

[RockAndRoll]

I've heard Conquistador now. Twas very good :thumb:
Indeed. For someone reason I thought it was more wll known than it is.

P.S - the hokie pokie, that's what it's all about.

[thickasabrick]

k im teaching a student of mine how to play Let It Be..i was just listening to it because im gonna stick it on a cd for him

At the part in the song where he says "For though they may be parted.." does anyone else here a word being whispered in the background?? it sounds like someone saying sunshine but im not sure.

anyone know what im talking about? its bugging me now.

[slowhand]

Which version of Let It Be is that one? Is it from the original or the Naked album?

Anyways, today I went to school dressed as George Harrison in his Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band outfit... It was awesome. The only other person who came as a Pepper was the one who is our 'John,' the other two couldn't make it... Pitty.

[thickasabrick]

im pretty sure its the original, but i've never heard the naked version...is it easy to tell them apart?

[slowhand]

Well, the Naked version is a cleaner recording. The only real difference comes in the solo. It changes a little from both versions, and the Naked version's guitar in the solo has a cleaner sound, more like what they would have done if they actually didn't want the album Let It Be to be as much as ubdubbed as it could be.

The 'for though they may be parted' part is where the bass comes in. Maybe what you're hearing is some sounds overlapping each other.

[thickasabrick]

well its not the naked version then...try giving the original a good listen, maybe its just some noise from my speakers. i was hoping it was some sort of subliminal message telling me to do acid.

[Woodstock]

I've never noticed the sunshine thing, but it is where the bass comes in.

[myassitches]

i don`t really listen to alot of classic rock i only listen a little led zeppelin and floyd, the rest are **** laying around on the shelves for $8.99.

[RNR]

well its not the naked version then...try giving the original a good listen, maybe its just some noise from my speakers. i was hoping it was some sort of subliminal message telling me to do acid.

Heh, yeah.

I wish I could teach guitar. Teach kids Beatles songs and punk stuff. Would be good, easy work.

[Schyma]

i don`t really listen to alot of classic rock i only listen a little led zeppelin and floyd, the rest are **** laying around on the shelves for $8.99.

8.99 I ****en wish by the way you are probably one of the most retarded metal heads but Ive seen worse. Most of the music you probably listin to is inspired by classic rock :wave: ...Anyways anyone home?

[Woodstock]

I'm here, but with nothing much to say.

[RNR]

Where are these $9 cds you speak of? The lowest it gets around here is $10 and that's for less-known bands.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Where are these $9 cds you speak of? The lowest it gets around here is $10 and that's for less-known bands.

$10 cds in australia would be great but I doubt it will ever get there.

[Schyma]

Kinda oppisite for me the lowest it gets for me is 10.00 and thats for the more popular stuff.

[Woodstock]

CD's are highest at my mall. $18.99, I get so angry.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Sometimess you can pick up good classic rock albums that stores don't respect, I have got a lot of Old Acoustic Dylan very cheap.

[magicbus]

Are you really or are you toying with my young undeveloped mind?


Seriously. Unless conflicts arise. And this kid can't get free games from Blockbuster anymore. :angry:

[RockAndRoll]

I've found a few good cheap CD's.

[RNR]

New poll is up.

[KurtCobain2902]

I don't know if anybody else has a record store called Zia, but you can by tapes for 1$ and CDs for 8$.

[RockAndRoll]

I wish I had a record store like that near me.

[Creedence Clearwater]

I wish I had a record store like that near me.

i wouldn'tmind a store that onmly sells records, I only have a few.

[RockAndRoll]

I'd like to get some more vinyl, but first I need a good place to set my dad's turn table up.

[Creedence Clearwater]

The whole opperating a record player was a skill I resently had to acquire(sp?)

[RockAndRoll]

heh, my dad's is a fairly modern one. It's cool, as well as being a good turn table it has these lights on the side and they spin in neat ways.

[Seafroggys]

I just got a 25% off coupon for Borders, and I can't decide what CD I want to get next.

- Who are You? Who
- Who's Next Who
- Magical Mystery Tour Beatles
- Led Zepplin II Don't remember
- Help Beatles
- Aqualung! Jethro Tull
- Secret Treaties Blue Oyster Cult
- Master of Puppets Metallica

I doubt I can get Secret Treaties at a place like Borders, but I can't really decide (this is my b-day list :) )

[Spectrum]

I know that Who are You? is a classic alongside Who's Next, Magical Mystery Tour is a great one, as is Help, and the rest I don't know about (I don't know them as well).

[RNR]

After all of those albums get Jeff Healey- Hell to pay. You will not regret it.

[Against Miik!]

I made Jeff Healey my bitch last nite.


Get The Beatles- Help

[RNR]

I made Jeff Healey my bitch last nite.



:amaze:















:naughty:

[RockAndRoll]

Ya, what have you been up to miik?

[Schyma]

Get MMT Beatles

[Badmoon]

I know that Who are You? is a classic alongside Who's Next, Magical Mystery Tour is a great one, as is Help, and the rest I don't know about (I don't know them as well).

I think Who Are You is mediocre.

[RockAndRoll]

I like who's next more than who are you.

[RNR]

I think Who Are You is mediocre.

!!!!!!!1

That's a surprise.

Oh well, life is full of surprises :)

I would get Aqualung, just because most of those other cds have a lot of songs you can hear on the radio (if you have a classic rock station) i have barely heard any tull on the radio except the song Aqualung itself.

[guitrguy]

I wish I had a record store like that near me.
I got one, but its closing this saturday. :upset:

I would get Magical Mystery Tour(If I didn't already have it).

[Schyma]

Doors and AC\DC are close we cant let AC\DC win :angry:

[guitrguy]

I already voted for the Beatles.

[Schyma]

Me too :(

[lunch998]

Who's Next is miles ahead of Who Are You. Aqualung is really good too.

[jpj]

Aqualung, you will get it and you will like it!

[Broken Arrow]

I voted for the Doors :thumb:


Anyways Aqualung or Magical Mystery Tour(my favourite beatles album,)

[lunch998]

Cross-eyed Mary is one of my favorite Jethro Tull songs.

[Woodstock]

I am miik is back, wow.

I voted for the Stones, and Seafroggy's, get Magical Mystery Tour.

[Woodstock]

I am miik is back, wow.

Those are great.

[ibanED311]

classic rock is good stuff, its better than a ton of the crap people are into now. The beatles and Zepp. are 2 of the best bands of all time. If you consider Santana classic rock, then im A HUGE classic rock fan.

Rush kicks too.

[Schyma]

Has anyone downloaded Roy Harper??? yet

Yeah, while not quite "rock" santana is still classic rock. Uhh that doesn't make sense to the un-trained mind, mind you.
