Classic Rock

[Broken Arrow]

Ho ho ho.

This could get interesting.

Keep it in the Zeppelin thread so this one doesnt get closed.

[magicbus]

I agree:

JPJ is a great bassist.
I've considered covering DSOTM as well, if I can ever get some other guys who know how to play together.
I want to learn Hotel California really bad after hearing the live version.
I've also been really interested in Gilmour's effects. Here are some pages I found:

http://www.mikesguitarsite.co.uk/gear/pink_floyd/
http://www.neptunepinkfloyd.co.uk/articles/v.php?article=djg/djg96.html

[Maggot Dream]

I learned the intro to Hotel California from Hell Freezes Over. Its not that hard, but i dont have an acoustic, so I'm not totally sure.

[Woodstock]

The Byrds are great you crazy youngin's.

[drugstore cowboy]

Ok...classic rock, here goes. I'm gonna make a cd of the best driving songs...songs for driving down the open road, if you will =p Suggestions?

So far, it's:
Green Onions, Booker T and the MG's
Radar Love by Golden Earring
Rock and Roll by Zeppelin

[Badmoon]

Ramblin' Man by The Allman Brothers

[wanton]

Grateful Dead - Dark Star
Neil Young - Cowgirl in the Sand
Doobie Brothers - Long Train Running
Marshall Tucker Band - Heard It in a Love Song
Foghat - Fool for the City
Allman Brothers - Trouble No More, One Way Out
Anything CCR

[Badmoon]

I hate being in a car when Dark Star's playing, there's no force.

[RockAndRoll]

How is it that when we name the greatest driving songs La Grange is not the first on the list? It is by far the most ultimate driving song of all time.

[thickasabrick]

im not a fan of Zeppelin in the car, and La Grange is a great choice.

i also like Break on Through, and i also have to mention Bohemian Rhapsody just because of Waynes World.

[RockAndRoll]

im not a fan of Zeppelin in the car, and La Grange is a great choice.

i also like Break on Through, and i also have to mention Bohemian Rhapsody just because of Waynes World.
Those tw are good but seriously when it comes to driving songs just try driving 140 down a two lane highway with la Grange on, I guarantee you will understand that it is the greatest driving song of all time.

[~The*Lemon*Song~]

the LEMON SONG HAS THE GREATEST AVATAR OF ALL TIME

This is a little late, but thank you :D

[~The*Lemon*Song~]

No dude, Floyd's the best music in the car...anyone can cut you off, be slow, and whatnot, and you just....won't...care. It's like, "yeah, whatever, I'll get there sooner or later"...plus it always makes me spacey, like DSOM.

[Veteran of the psychic wars]

Hmm, for driving songs, I'd have said Stairway To The Stars, by Blue Oyster Cult.
Which, funnily enough, is probably where the La Grange riff was derived from.

[magicbus]

I always liked the Immigrant Song in the car. Then there's always Bad Moon Rising, All Along the Watchtower and Fire, Life in the Fastlane, LA Woman, and stuff that's fast and loud. I'm sick of Rock and Roll though. I don't listen to that anymore.

[Seafroggys]

Hmm, for driving songs, I'd have said Stairway To The Stars, by Blue Oyster Cult.

What album is that off of? It sounds like a cool song just by the name.

[lunch998]

For the car: Highway Star. If your going really fast.

You can only play Rock And Roll if you have a Cadillac.

[jpj]

Bohemian Rhapsody and any Doors or ZZ Top songs are great to drive to.

[drugstore cowboy]

Alriiiight. Now wasn't that fun? Thanks for the songs =p Now...I've just got to wait until I get my G2. Got my G1 now =p

[Broken Arrow]

Taxman-The Beatles
I am the Walrus-The Beatles
Queen of teh Highway-The Doors
Peace Frog-The Doors
Roadhouse Blues-The Doors

[Schyma]

Im making a psychdellic mix CD...Any Ideas? :smoke:

[lunch998]

[Schyma]

Mr Tambourine Man
Tales of Brave Ulysses

[lunch998]

Mr Tambourine Man
Tales of Brave Ulysses

No Burning of the Midnight Lamp? Not a Fan?

[Against Miik!]

The Byrds playing Mr Tambourine Man

I like the Bob Dylan version better.

[Schyma]

HHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGEEEEEEEE fan I love it but Ive already got it on a CD so why waste.

[lunch998]

HHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGEEEEEEEE fan I love it but Ive already got it on a CD so why waste.

Ohh ok.

[Against Miik!]

Ramblin' Man by The Allman Brothers

:eek:

[Big-Bird]

I thought of checking out the Allman Brothers Band.

Any album suggestions?

[Schyma]

Tales of Brave Ulysses is awsome is all Cream like this because all the Cream Ive listined to sux but all Ive herd is the ones on Cream of Clapton (like 4 songs)

[Against Miik!]

I thought of checking out the Allman Brothers Band.

Eat A Peach and Live at Filmore East are regarded as there best. Or you could be lame and go with there Best of... cd.

[lunch998]

Tales of Brave Ulysses is awsome is all Cream like this because all the Cream Ive listined to sux but all Ive herd is the ones on Cream of Clapton (like 4 songs)

Ok use periods. But no, all Cream is not like that, unfortunately. What Cream songs have you heard?

[Big-Bird]

Eat A Peach and Live at Filmore East are regarded as there best. Or you could be lame and go with there Best of... cd.

Eat A Peach alright got it. I don't like Live Albums. So anything else?

[Badmoon]

Stand Back and Blue Sky = Best of Eat a Peach

[Schyma]

Come on..I's needz songz :smoke:

[lunch998]

Eat A Peach alright got it. I don't like Live Albums. So anything else?

Before you say you don't like Live Albums, let me make you aware that this is one of the best live albums in history. That is an opinion shared by many.

But if you won't get live at the Fillmore, then their Self-titled is pretty good.

[Badmoon]

Everyone start learnin' about The Dead and The Allmans, we need to debate um.

[Against Miik!]

Eat A Peach alright got it. I don't like Live Albums. So anything else?

IMO, not really. They have a few live albums. Filmore East really is there best album though, and is the best live album ever made overall. If you just want a good sampling, get the Best of cd.

[Woodstock]

Stand Back and Blue Sky = Best of Eat a Peach
Those are great. My favorites are Ain't Wastin' Time No More and Les Brers in A Minor.

I usually listen to my cd's when I'm ready to sleep so I really don't like all the cheering between tracks. I have Live Alive by SRV and it's great it really is but I don't know the cheering kinda makes me stay awake. Yeah I listen to CD's when I'm not going to sleep but again the cheering. I'll listen to Filmore East at the store and I'll buy it if it's hella good.

[Creedence Clearwater]

I like the Bob Dylan version better.

So do I but thats wasn't the piont.

[Schyma]

How about you Badmoon any good psychdellic Dead?

[Creedence Clearwater]

Maybe he ran away.......

[Badmoon]

How about you Badmoon any good psychdellic Dead?

Yea! "China Cat Sunflower", "The Golden Road", "Doin' that Rag", "Mountains of The Moon", "Dark Star", "St. Stephen", "Beat it Down the Line" (to an extent).

*doesn't care for Anthem of the Sun as of now, nor does feel like naming tracks of it*

[jpj]

Tales of Brave Ulysses is awsome is all Cream like this because all the Cream Ive listined to sux but all Ive herd is the ones on Cream of Clapton (like 4 songs)
So you're gonna judge a band by 4 songs...tsk,tsk,tsk.

[Schyma]

Hey man I liked Born Cross Eyed. Also I bought Aoxomoxoa...Me Liked :)

[FreebirdTPM]

I thought of checking out the Allman Brothers Band.

Any album suggestions?
Just buy their Anthology it's only aout $16 and its a great CD especially for a beginner.

And a debate between ABB and Grateful Dead, :) Shrooms vs. Acid
ABB is my favorite band sp anything about them would be cool, let's get it started!

[Schyma]

So you're gonna judge a band by 4 songs...tsk,tsk,tsk.

No not really :rolleyes:

[Badmoon]

Hey man I liked Born Cross Eyed. Also I bought Aoxomoxoa...Me Liked :)

Yea, it'sw got swome good tracks. Though, I do prefer a few of them live.

[FreebirdTPM]

Psycheldelic songs...hmm Grateful Dead has more trippy songs then they do Psychedelic, Golden Road To Unlimited Devotion probly takes the cake for that category though...the Doors probly have a lot more psycheldelic stuff.

Scarelt Begonias by the Dead is pretty psychedelic..

[RNR]

I have my R.E.M. tickets now :D. That's going to be amazorific.

[FreebirdTPM]

WTF I just found out that http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000002GVS/neosoulbooks/002-0196873-7562444 is the top selling album of all time!?!?!?! WTF!? That doesn't even have Hotel California...**** I would've never thought that album though.

[Metallogy]

Does anyone like Uriah Heep or even heard of them? I been recentally introduced to there music and I love it.

Hmm some of my favourite Classic Rock bands are, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Queen and The Doors.

Would The Scorpions be considered Classic rock? I would think so. (but, just wondering) :thumb:

edit: I am quite sure Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon is the best selling album of all time.

Livewired we've got a noob alert in the Zeppelin thread. He is actually pretty smart, in but just his user name makes him a noob. JimmyPaulPlant or something like that.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Hey Livemired, did you listenn to any of that Dylan

[Creedence Clearwater]

Livewired we've got a noob alert in the Zeppelin thread. He is actually pretty smart, in but just his user name makes him a noob. JimmyPaulPlant or something like that.

Does that mean I have a noob username too.

[RNR]

Err, The Eagles were massive. Like super massively massive. So i'm not surprised. And They have more to them than Hotel California


Uriah Heep sucks by the way.

[lunch998]

Does that mean I have a noob username too.

No, it only applies to Led Zeppelin. You are officially a fanboy is you have one of the members names in your user title.

[Badmoon]

Psycheldelic songs...hmm Grateful Dead has more trippy songs then they do Psychedelic, Golden Road To Unlimited Devotion probly takes the cake for that category though...the Doors probly have a lot more psycheldelic stuff.

Scarelt Begonias by the Dead is pretty psychedelic..

Tripping = Acid

Acid Rock = 60's S.F. Psychedelia

Trippy = Psychedelia

And I believe S.B. is much more of a rythmic reggae song.


Speaking of the Grateful Dead, they just released a new box set and DVD. The box set has pretty much their '73 - onward albums, that are hard to find these days.

[Against Miik!]

Not to get off topic, but outta curosity, what other music do you guys listen too? Honestly, there are some pop or rap songs I would rather listen to than classic rock. I love every Jack Johnson CD, and NERD and Kanye West as far as rap goes.

[Badmoon]

Jam Bands, Bluegrass and Roots Rock.

[Woodstock]

Reggae

[lunch998]

Jazz.

[RNR]

Blues (straight blues), Country, folk, Jazz, Metal, Alt, Classical and Flamenco.


Alot of those only include one or two artists though.

[jpj]

No, it only applies to Led Zeppelin. You are officially a fanboy is you have one of the members names in your user title.
:upset: This isn't fair Zeppelin isn't even my favorite band :upset:

Also outside of classic rock I like Widespread Panic, OAR, DMB, stuff like that.

Okay, new avatar. Opinions?

1- Dark side of the moon, Pink Floyd
2- Cream of Clapton, Eric Clapton
3- Led Zeppelin III, Led Zeppelin (obviously)
4- The Best Of The Who, The Who (obviously)
And you sit down and you listen to every one of those cd's! and that should get all the demons out of you, you will never listen to rap or crap agian!

[Badmoon]

I'm expressing interest in beginning to play Mandolin, but right now I don't play it.

I listen to "alternative" (A very broad term, yes) rock, rap, jazz, blues, and some reggae. I even like some country (Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Steve Earle are a-okay in my book).

I've decided to Shakedown Street another listen. I think my musical tastes might be changing because I was really surprised I liked Dylan and The Dead. Fire on the Mountain is pretty good.

[Broken Arrow]

Songs??
Who Do You love pt.1, Cavalry, Mona, Maiden of the Cancer Moon.

Those are all from my favourite album of theirs Happy Trails.

I did a review on it:cool:

If you are talking to me I already somewhat have I have album "Old Crow Medicine Show" Its Bluegrass and it has become a favorite of mine.

[jpj]

So far Shakedown Street is awesome. I don't understand I listened to this before, and didn't like it. This is wierd.

[Badmoon]

You play fiddle right? Either ask for some samples, or download some Vassar Clements.

Shakedown Street is hard to find. It also only got 2 stars. The only bad part is some of the keyboard noises are cheesy, and most those songs a way better live.

[Broken Arrow]

Well, yeah. For, "Good Lovin'" is a live song, and it is not sung by Pigpen. Who was dead.

[lunch998]

Badmoon what's in that new Grateful Dead box set?

[Badmoon]

Ohh hoo! Wake of the Flood, Shakedown Street, Built to Last, Go To Heaven, Blues for Allah, In the Dark, Live at Mars Hotel, Reckoning and various others.

A good amount of those are considered by crittics to be the worst of The Dead, but I'd strongly disagree.

Hmmm? As of now, I'd say Anthem of The Sun. But, Go to Heaven has some bad songs, except for two great ones.

The Grateful Dead

$130

Err, The Eagles were massive. Like super massively massive. So i'm not surprised. And They have more to them than Hotel California


Uriah Heep sucks by the way.

I wouldn't pay very much based on the fact that the music probably wouldn't be that great. It would be amazing to see them, but they better have the sound to back it up. It's not like they're going to tour anyway.

Drunk boy. I'm out for tonight guys, Peace all.

[Metallogy]

My dad kind of likes Uriah Heep. I wouldnt pay 2000$. Are you CRAZY????

My dad was the one who introduced me to Uriah Heep, and many other of my favourite classic rock bands.

I am not crazy... but I would work full-time and miss school to watch my favourite band live for those three hours of more... :thumb: ... but it would be one of the greatest experiences since I didn't get to grow with the music as my dad any many other people did.

I am sure a ticket wouldn't cost $2,000, maybe ranging from $200-$600 (not quite to sure)...


What do you guys think about David Gilmour's soul that he puts into his song-writting and amazing guitar playing?

No one plays with more soul than Gilmour (In my opinion). He always plays just the right note. Always. It's wierd. He isn't the fastest guitarist in the world (as if speed means anything), His chord progressions are fine art and his passionate lead runs are just memorizing. Deep in my musical drive is a part that can only be reached by him.

I feel as like many of his songs were something I’d written but could never get together. I could never write the kinds of words he does, but he’s helped me out in trying to write my own songs...

The Grateful Dead box set sucks unless you're like an unbeilievably huge fan and want to own anything having to do with them...out of the lke 140 songs on it only about 30 are ones that you'll wanna listen to on a regular basis but those 30 songs will probly be on CDs 8-12 so just go buy them each at a cheaper price.

[Broken Arrow]

Sweet guys I'm out!:wave:

Schmay000 post you opinions on those songs please.:)

[Against Miik!]

Ok heres what you do, you sell all your junk cd's (rap, hip hop, etc.) go to your music store or where ever and you buy:
1- Dark side of the moon, Pink Floyd
2- Cream of Clapton, Eric Clapton
3- Led Zeppelin III, Led Zeppelin (obviously)
4- The Best Of The Who, The Who (obviously)
And you sit down and you listen to every one of those cd's! and that should get all the demons out of you, you will never listen to rap or crap agian!

O.k., the fact that you are narrowminded enough to say that all rap and pop sucks is pathetic. Then, instead of telling me something useful, you tell me to get two best of cds and the two most popular classic rock cds. This just shows me that your opinion on music cannot be taken seriously, and on a more serious note, you should end yourself.

[magicbus]

Today I brought in Dogs to my guitar lessons, and its a really complex song (as the open tuning would suggest), because every time he switches a chord, the key changes. So I get to play around with this for the next week. :thumb:

Obviously a first timmer wouldn't buy this. These discs aren't even known. Let alone their critically "good" albums.

If you do (There are overall 13 discs) happen to go out and buy each disc, it would roughly come out to $190. And you probably won't find a quarter of them.

And overall, what your kinda proposing, is that we might aswell buy a Best of CD. All the songs are good. Some editions are even extended, but you won't know how much more good songs there are.

[Veteran of the psychic wars]

What album is that off of? It sounds like a cool song just by the name.

From the first album. It is a good song, as well as that riff, it's got an excellent solo too, that's great fun to jam to.
If you get the remaster, you'll also get three bonus tracks recorded as the Stalk-Forrest Group, from an unreleased album. Psychedelic, jammy and all out great fun.

No I was just pretty much saying it blows and is a waste of money for even a fan of Grateful Dead..but yeah I would just buy their best of CD the one with like about 18 songs that's a great CD.

[Badmoon]

Why is it a waste? I'd be getting a bunch of albums I cannot find, for less than I'd spend if I bought them seperatley. I would also be getting unreleased material, and various other live songs that would not be included on the album.

[Badmoon]

Some people find it stupid to get a Best of, because if they got into a the chosen band, they would have wasted money. Unless you consider it a sample, but then you could have just downloaded it or sampled a song for free. I doubt you would understand, the commitment is obviously not shown through you, being that you listed all hit songs off of their new compilation (Though you may not have it), and you titled one of their known songs incorrectly.

I dont see anything wrong with Best of's. If you want to get into a certain band, I recommend them to a first timer. And if you get into that band and buy their actual records thats fine too. I mean, Retrospective and Skeletons in the Closet are both greatest hits, but great albums, and perfect for even the most devoted fan.

Well, wanting to get into a band plays a large role. And actually "Skeletons" is a bad compilation. It contains regular hits, and then throws in a few that weren't on any Grateful Dead album, nor even known to be good recordings, but good live ones. "Mexacali Blues", and "One more Saturday Night" were off of Bob Weir's Ace (even though The Grateful Dead played on each track.), "Rosemary" is hardly two minutes long, let alone not even a Dead favorite. They even claimed they didn't pick the songs on the album.

Well, your opinion on the matter helps nothing. If I followed your opinion, I'd have 12 (not 13) more Grateful Dead albums and be about $70 shorter than I could have been. And I ouldn't have any of the extra tracks, being that the ones included haven't been part of the new remastered series, and supposebly will not.

i just listened to the entire Atom Heart Mother album by Pink Floyd, and im slightly disappointed. the first extremely long song (or is it just a collection of songs) was amazing, but after that it went downhill. What are you opinions on this album?

i would post this in the Pink Floyd thread, but most of them are such big fans they would just say i'm stupid or something useless, so im looking for real opinions.

[Schyma]

Agreed Atom Heart Mother just wasn't that good :(

[drugstore cowboy]

I love Roger McQuinn's twelve string. Especially in the beginning of Eight Miles High, to name but one example.

I'm definitely into the country-rock. Gram Parsons is a real underrated musical figure. He was in the International Submarine Band, where he began his country rock stage. He turned the Byrds into a more country sounding band with Sweetheart of the Rodeo, though many people don't really appreciate the change. And then he went on to start the Flying Burrito Brothers, one of my favourite bands, and one of the most underrated by far. They did a great cover of the Stones' "Wild Horses"

Kind of like surf music (think Ventures) meets The Doors, with Jerry Garcia as the musical and spiritual advisor (it actually credits him as that on the album), i think it means he supplied them with acid.
