Classic Rock

[Freddie9]

So, who likes Australian '70s rock?

*glares*


/glares
AC/DC is good

[Riva]

Yes, but I am talking stuff like Galadriel, Hunters And Collectors, Split Enz, INXS... you know.

[RNR]

Ac/dc is the only band I know :(. What are other 70s australian bands?

edit: oh

[Badmoon]

String Cheese Incident
moe.

They're not Classic Rock though. Especially String Cheese, they're Prog-Bluegrass with some Funk-Lation :p. And moe., is just different. :)

[pjdeadhead34]

What does everybody think of Pearl Jam, they get overlooked alot, they are better than Nirvana by far.

Oh my god, I don't know whether to kill myself or chop off my genitals.

[RNR]

Ease up.

Pearljam isn't classic rock. We don't talk about them here. However you can make a thread for them.

[RockAndRoll]

Eddy Vedder with the Who = good.

[Badmoon]

Eddy Vedder with the Who = good.

Indeed :thumb:

[RockAndRoll]

Indeed :thumb:
Have you heard the live at the royal albert hall Album with him on it then?

[LouReed_is_Jesus]

Yeah, their album "Ogden's Nut Gone Flake" [Small Faces] has a pretty kickass title track, not to mention overall, style and technique...in my opinion, Small Faces are one of the better Mod-pop bands to come out of the UK.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALSO, I was wondering what anyone thinks of Tom Waits' aproach to music...I think his fusion of 40's lounge jazz with rock-esque elements in fascinating. If you havent heard of him, definitely try his stuff out :thumb: :naughty:

[clown_phobia]

Ease up.

Pearljam isn't classic rock. We don't talk about them here. However you can make a thread for them.

strange... I thought they were??

I've been considering the grunge bands as classic rock, but now that I think about it, they're obviously not.

who likes the doors?

[Riva]

Well, I've been told classic rock ends at '79. That's a while before grunge began in full.

[Addicted2MyGuitar]

Classic rock is by far the best kind of music.

Why did I have to be born in the late 80s? :upset: I'll never get to see Zeppelin in concert.
I feel your pain. :upset: :upset: I LOVE Led Zeppelin, and I, too, was born in the late 80s. The weird thing is neither of my parents are Zep fans. :angry: I like some modern rock too, but probably not as much as the classic bands.

Favorite classic bands:
Led Zeppelin
The Who
Scorpions
The Beatles
AC/DC
Metallica
Iron Maiden
Black Sabbath
Aerosmith
Motley Crue
Elvis Presley

[poundcake]

Van Halen is th ebest band ever, the things that man can do are amazing!

[poundcake]

Van halen is the best rock band ever, the things thnat man can do while he is smoking a cigerette are amazing!

[thickasabrick]

man we've had a bunch of new members in here since i came on yesterday...

poundcake...if you plan on visiting this site regularly, i suggest you don't make two posts saying the exact same thing. especially about van halen.

yesterday me and my guitar teacher were playing some bluegrass songs, and he was playing harmony. i told him i started listening to the grateful dead and i noticed they do a lot of harmony with some good bluegrass roots, and he told me he used to be the hugest deadhead. i knew he was a fan of bluegrass and folk,as well as some blues, but i didn't know he liked the dead. he said he saw a few of their shows in the early seventies and they were his favourite live band.


and addicted2myguitar: i wouldn't really consider Metallica classic rock, i dont care if you are a fan of theirs, but this isnt the right thread to discuss them. motley crue is pushing the limit as well.

[guitrguy]

Way to keep those noobs in line.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to thickasabrick again.

sorry.

[Steff]

Hi there !

I hope somebody can help me..
Am searching for a song from the '60-'70s. I dont know from who the song is,but i know one thing from the lyric :

Whooooooooooooooohhh jah... Whoohooooooooooooooohhh jah !

Thats all i know.Its not mutch information,sorry.
( Ohw yeah,its a singer,a male.. )

Sorry about my english,am from Belgium..

[Steff]

Euhm,not really,sorry.. Its a sort of classic rock,like Jimmi Hendrix.

[Schyma]

John Lennon died 24 years ago today try to play only John Lennon\Beatles to respect the greatest musical mind the world has seen. :upset:

John Lennon Forever.

[magicbus]

My teacher brought that up today, and then this little bitch kid started talking about his "knowledge" of classic music. What it boiled down to was that he "hates when people call Twisted Sister one hit wonders", he's so excited that Motely Crue is getting back together, he hates Pink Floyd and "acid rock" (which I don't really consider them anyways), and he thinks Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and John Lennon are all overrated. I was so enraged I could not concentrate on class for the rest of the hour. I hope I see him in the parking lot after school. I really want to hit him with a bat.

well i know its a longshot, but maybe you mean the Immigrant Song? except its more in the way of AAAAH, no WOOOH, and i dunno what jah sounds like.

sorry.

what do you mean? you mean i should start repping people? or that i should try to have a good reputation before i put other people down? im very confused.

we have this afternoon off of school....except i have nothing to do. looks like an mx and guitar day for me.

i hate getting in arguments over music at school. it isn't bad on the internet, because you can show links to sites to show your facts, but if the internet/any resources arent handy, they can pass off all kinds of **** as facts.

i may have mentioned this before, but one time we were discussing Stairway to Heaven in english, and one kid said "didn't van halen write stairway?" and i kinda half flipped out on him. and then the teacher said "calm down jeff! led zeppelin didn't write it anyway...it was the other guy."

im not sure if she thought led zeppelin was a member of the band, or who the other guy was supposed to be, but i sure was angry because i really couldnt argue back.

[Steff]

nope,not immigrant song,but thanx for helping me !

The saddest thing I've noticed is that it's slowly become more acceptable to like hair metal, which was an abomination in the 80's and still sucks just as bad today.

[thickasabrick]

ya that's true. there were bands i find enjoyable, like van halen and guns n roses,def leppard maybe. but things like Warrent, RATT, i can't even think of anymore but you know what i mean. they totally over-cheesified rock.

hey steff stick around and chat, what bands are you into? do you play any instruments?

[Schyma]

*listinig to "I am Walrus".Is respecting John*

[Schyma]

thickasabrick voted stairway. Sad day :(

[Schyma]

John Lennon died 24 years ago today try to play only John Lennon\Beatles to respect the greatest musical mind the world has seen. :upset:

John Lennon Forever.

Im gunna quote this all day.

[thickasabrick]

thickasabrick voted stairway. Sad day :(

damn straight. i think the choices up there sucked though. even the crappiest metal song could make it to the top ten just because all the metalheads would rather vote for it than a good rock song.
everyones afraid to vote for stairway because they will be called a noob, or a fanboy or something.

i was very torn between the two Floyd songs, so i figured Stairway would solve those problems. Face it, it is a good song.

[thickasabrick]

whats the deal with Supertramp?

they seemed to be like a pop band who wrote unbeleivably great songs, and were great musicians. i have a few of their albums, my favourite is probably crime of the century, or breakfast in america. i realize calling them a pop band may have been a little pompous, but its true...if you listen to their albums, they had way more pop songs than rock songs. yet they were still a huge band in the seventies rock scene.

i think they are a great band. anyone else like them? anyone totally disagree with what i said?

Hit your teacher.

[thickasabrick]

Hit your teacher.

i'd hit her alright...just not in the way you want me to. (HOT TEACHER)

good god, we got this afternoon off of school, so i wanted to go check out some Records to buy. At one oclock my brother got home with the car (we share one) and i asked him if he needed it anymore. he said he needed it to go out for lunch. he didn't come back with it until right now, (3:30 where i live). now i have to drive like a madman to make it before the store closes.

i will inform you guys on what i bought when i come back. stay tuned.

[Illmatic]

Today is the 24th anniversary of John Lennon's death, but on a ligher note, it's also Gregg Allman's 57th birthday. Just wanted to point that out.

RIP John and Happy Birthday Gregg.

[guitrguy]

Its a day of celebration and mourning.

[Schyma]

Oh and happy birthday to Gregg and that guy in my avatar thats to cool for X mas.

[Badmoon]

oh and i finally read badmoons featured artist on the Grateful Dead. I dunno how long ago he did that, but i just read it. its good. anyone who hasnt read it should check it out. (Other Music)

I can actually prove some of the facts on that wrong. A lot of the older sources I use to read about Jerry Garcia and The Grateful did were wrong. Soory :upset:

[Badmoon]

Have you heard the live at the royal albert hall Album with him on it then?

Yeah, pretty good album :)

[Freddie9]

Well, I've been told classic rock ends at '79. That's a while before grunge began in full.

I think classic rock ends in the early 80's. Some of Floyd, Rush, ect. was released in the 80's.

[Schyma]

I just got "Who's Next" but would've liked "Freewheelin Bob" much more

[magicbus]

Happy Birthday to Jim Morrison!

[Riva]

Happy Birthday to all! My respects to Lennon.

[Schyma]

Happy Birthday to Jim Morrison!

Man Im glad someone noticed. :)

[jpj]

/me listens to Hallowed Be Thy Name in Lennon's honor....oh wait....
/me listens to Imagine next

[lunch998]

I ordered Happy Trails from Amazon. I hope it's good.

That was a funny story, maybe you should attack him in classic rock themed way. ie. hit him with flaming guitar or something.

[magicbus]

I was gonna go with steel bat, but flaming guitar is much more symbolic. I'll do that tomorrow.

[lunch998]

Yea but then you have to waste a guitar.

[Pheonix15]

Classic rock rules, from Ac/dc to Zepplin

Classic rock rules, from [/B][I][U]Ac/dc to [B][I][U]Zepplin
:lol: Brilliant

I just kinda realized it after I had typed it, so bolded and underlined and sized up the letters.

How's the tele doing for you? :)

[lunch998]

How's the tele doing for you? :)

Weren't you going to get a Tele?

[RNR]

Teles are like country guitars.

Or so i've heard :shiftyeyez:

[Badmoon]

Weren't you going to get a Tele?

Yes, I should be getting it for Christmas. Though I had to pay for some of it :(.

[thickasabrick]

teles are great guitars, and yes they are used a lot in country.

so im mad at my record store...they totally overprice all the big name artists, they have like 25 horrible condition beatles records for 50 bucks each, same with Dylan records. luckily they were selling Beach Boys and Grateful Dead records for surprisingly cheap, so i got a Beach Boys greatest hits (i wanted pet sounds but they didn't have it) and Workingmans Dead (no american beauty) for about 20 bucks.

[thickasabrick]

Yes, I should be getting it for Christmas. Though I had to pay for some of it :(.

do you know what kind it is? what pickups?

[Badmoon]

We should start an album trading cycle.

We will all trade through AIM (all must up date their versions), and we'll pass it off one by one. For instance, I'll pass it to RocknotRoll, and then he'll pass it to Lunch, and then he'll pass it to someone else.

That'd work good. :cool:

that sounds like an idea. i need to get AIM though.

who here listens to Country Joe and the Fish?

[jpj]

Someone tell how to do it please.

[Badmoon]

do you know what kind it is? what pickups?

Still got to go choose one. It'll probably have the standard pickups. Which is great, because I love the untampered with sound of the guitar.

[Badmoon]

who here listens to Country Joe and the Fish?

I do.

Did you download any of the songs I suggested a little while ago Thickasabrick?

[thickasabrick]

I do.

Did you download any of the songs I suggested a little while ago Thickasabrick?

you recommended Country Joe songs? or another band?

[Schyma]

Badmoon do you think you could trade off "Wake of the Flood"?

No luck finding it. :(

can I work my way into the trade?

[Badmoon]

Yes

an I work my way into the trade?

Most likely.

you recommended Country Joe songs? or another band?

Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die Rag (I believe that is the right wording.)

[jpj]

I want to send someone something! But I don't know how!

[Badmoon]

BTW, Country Joe sang for School House Rock on the occasion, back in the day. I believe Robbie Robertson from The Band did to, well one of the members anyway. :)

[Badmoon]

I want to send someone something! But I don't know how!

Talk to me on AIM.

We will all switch off from trading albums by the way. Did count on me for supplying each time.

[thickasabrick]

i downloaded a song called Vietnam, and a song called Fixin to Die Rag...and i dunno if the titles are accidentally mixed up, or they are the same song with just two different titles. but they are exactly the same.

is fixin to die the "123 what are we fighting for" song?

[Badmoon]

Yes, and yes they are both the same song. :)

[MalcolmYoungRock]

I'm back.

John Lennon's acoustic CD is really really good :) Recommended.

[thickasabrick]

Yes, and yes they are both the same song. :)

well thats just great, i downloaded two of each just to see if they were different. good song though. i wish i can make it fit with the iraq war, then i'd sing it to my school..they always want me to perform stuff.

[thickasabrick]

I'm back.

The new U2 CD is...meh. Half the songs I like and half the songs i'll skip. The Lennon CD is post-death, but I think it's some live show he played.

And... I got grounded. Have a C-Minus in English :upset:

yikes. we will help you study :thumb: . actually im studying right now for a math test i have tomorrow, and its not going well. i dont remember half this stuff.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Yeah, right now, I'm conjugating Spanish verbs...

sounds fun doesn't it.

The Lennon CD is good.

If you see me on AIM, I'll send you a sample.

[thickasabrick]

i never was one for other languages. im going to spain during spring break, i've learned a couple spanish words from my mexican friend (his names Omar, who woulda guessed)


k i'd better get aim then.

The new U2 album is fairly disappointing..."Vertigo" and "The Miracle Drug" are the only tracks that stand out.

and a C- in English? You speak English.

[RockAndRoll]

It's still not hard to get a C in.

[Woodstock]

I was debating whether I should get that John Lennon acoustic CD, it looks pretty good. Maybe I'll give it another thought.

[Riva]

Go for it. If I could find a single Lennon CD in my record store, I'd snap it up like that.

[Woodstock]

Yeah, well I think this Acoustic one is brand new. I'll either get this or The Plastic Ono Band. Any thoughts on either?

[Maggot Dream]

I was wondering about that Acoustic CD, considering buying it as an Xmas present. I'm not a big fan, but my mom is. Can't find it anywhere though...

Amazon.com is your friend, I'm sure they'd have it.

[Maggot Dream]

Yeah, I'll have to check that out.....hate paying shipping, but oh well.

[Seafroggys]

Plastic Ono Band is an awesome album. You get God, Working Class Hero, Mother, Isolation, I Found Out, Do the Oz.....all badass songs that are a must have.

[wanton]

Can someone (possibly badmoon) recommend me some more good bluegrass/folky songs the Grateful Dead has?

I've have:
Brokedown Palace
Cumberland Blues
Dire Wolf - I'd really like some more songs like this, love it
Mountains of the Moon
Ripple

Badmoon recommended me Sugar Magnolia and its an awesome song. do you have Truckin or Fire on the Mountain? i dunno if they are what you are looking for but they are still great songs.

[lunch998]

Fire On the Mountain is great, but it is pretty much reggae as opposed to bluegrass/folk.

[thickasabrick]

thats true.

so Stairway To Heaven won by ONE vote...who was it that was disappointed in me for voting for it? they will really be mad now. it was someone on here.

[Badmoon]

Ha, I voted for them. And if it wasn't for my almost hypocritical vote, they would have tied. ;)

You're welcome :thumb:

Yeah, keep in mind that a good portion of these are not Grateful Dead originals, some are even Traditional. You should check them out to Thickasabrick. I know how you like the traditional sense of some music.

Bluegrass/Country/Folk kind of songs

I Know You Rider (trad.)

Well, that should do you good.

Nice :thumb:

[thickasabrick]

ha, one mention of Grateful Dead and Badmoon comes chargin in to save the day.

i'll check out those songs. are they all Dead songs?

[Badmoon]

Other than when stated. But yes, The Grateful Dead play all of those songs. Though a portion of them never were released on record.

[thickasabrick]

fair enough...and damn you badmoon! you got the 16000th post! i was waiting for that for a while now.

and i still haven't gotten to finish listening to American Beauty. :upset:

[Badmoon]

I like American Beautt, but it's not my favorite. It was the second Dead album I ever bought, and the first studio album by them I bought.

From then till now, my all time favorite Grateful Dead song has been Sugar Magnolia. :)

and yes, 16000 is mine!!!

[LouReed_is_Jesus]

Anyone remember Iron Butterfly?....Inna Gadda Da Vida Baby!

[Schyma]

fair enough...and damn you badmoon! you got the 16000th post! i was waiting for that for a while now.

and i still haven't gotten to finish listening to American Beauty. :upset:

Listning to it right now :cool:

[guitrguy]

I hope i get it for xmas (American Beauty)

[corganfan001]

yeah man for sure, look at all these new indie bands thats become the new trend, all heavily classic rock influence, tons of dvd's of old bands are comin out and more ppl are just getting into the old ****.

classics fo life

[guitrguy]

Gangsters like Classic Rock :confused:

[thickasabrick]

and yes, 16000 is mine!!!

what's your favourite album? I bought Workingmans Dead a few days ago and i thihnk it's great, i hadn't heard any of the songs off of it. they didn't have American Beauty so i just downloaded all the songs, im gonna try and buy the record when i can find it.

i really like Sugar Magnolia too, that and Friend of the Devil are probably my favourites from what i've heard.

i actually went to buy Blonde on Blonde, but it was 40 bucks cdn...Dylan records are always overpriced. i told my brother and sister to buy it for me for christmas, i'm excited. Workingman's Dead was only 10 bucks, they had a lot of Grateful Dead albums, but i didn't know what was good besides that and American Beauty..so i just bought one. they were all fairly cheap.

[thickasabrick]

due to the recent success of our school's performance of Guys and Dolls, our Rememberance Day concert, and our Choir concerts...some teachers have asked me if i wanted to perform anything else for the school. I was thinking it would be cool to make a "concert for peace", and the money could go to some sort of charity. I know a lot of good protest and war type songs, and our school is filled with good musicians. i think it would be a good idea, im sure the local news guy wouldn't mind coming down, he likes doing stuff like this.

Does anyone think this sounds like a good idea? I could get up there and play a few Dylan/any good protest songs, and get a few friends to play some songs too. It could be like a Woodstock for my city.

Does anyone think this sounds like a good idea? I could get up there and play a few Dylan/any good protest songs, and get a few friends to play some songs too. It could be like a Woodstock for my city.

Sounds cool :thumb:

[Schyma]

What songs are you going to play?

[Woodstock]

due to the recent success of our school's performance of Guys and Dolls, our Rememberance Day concert, and our Choir concerts...some teachers have asked me if i wanted to perform anything else for the school.

Nice, do you have the songs you want to play sorted out, or do you want recommendations?

[Distant Echoes]

Any opportunity like that is one that i would never turn down.

Ask for songs...i cant think of any off the top of my head, but im sure that you would get alot of recomendations for some just by asking a few people around.

Tell us what your set list is going to be once you get it finalized!

Play the Hendrix Version of the Star Spangled Banner.

That's pretty cool.

"All Along The Watchtower" (Hendrix or Dylan, depending on the skill of those involved)
"The Times They Are A-Changin'", "Masters of War", "Blowin' in the Wind", "With God on Our Side", "Hurricane" (Dylan)
"Gimme Shelter" (the Stones)
"Machine Gun" (Hendrix...but it depends on the guitarist you can find)
"Vietnam" (Jimmy Cliff)
"War Pigs", "Children of the Grave" (Sabbath)

All come to mind.

[lunch998]

Machine Gun might be tough to pull off, but it would be well worth it if you could manage it.

[Illmatic]

If you have the equipment and the talent for it, go for it. If not, don't bother.

:( But you despise Zeppelin....I....I...don't understand :confused:

And thickasabrick that's awesome you should do Fortunate Son.

[Badmoon]

what's your favourite album? I bought Workingmans Dead a few days ago and i thihnk it's great, i hadn't heard any of the songs off of it. they didn't have American Beauty so i just downloaded all the songs, im gonna try and buy the record when i can find it.

i really like Sugar Magnolia too, that and Friend of the Devil are probably my favourites from what i've heard.

i actually went to buy Blonde on Blonde, but it was 40 bucks cdn...Dylan records are always overpriced. i told my brother and sister to buy it for me for christmas, i'm excited. Workingman's Dead was only 10 bucks, they had a lot of Grateful Dead albums, but i didn't know what was good besides that and American Beauty..so i just bought one. they were all fairly cheap.


It's hard to pick me favorite, but along the lines of Reckoning, Skull & Roses, and Workingman's Dead.

[lunch998]

:( But you despise Zeppelin....I....I...don't understand :confused:

And thickasabrick that's awesome you should do Fortunate Son.

Yea but I guess Classic Rock> Metal.

And I agree with Moon about Skull and Roses, it's probably my favorite Dead album.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Could someone fill me in on what's been going on...??

Yeah, I've also got 30 bucks.

Suggestions?

I know, I'm horrible with money :upset:

[Woodstock]

Yeah, Fortunate Son would be a great easy song to pull off. I'd also try to do Ohio.

[Schyma]

My dads landlord found about 500 cds in abanded in a appartment and gave them all to him and I get to pick which ones I get to have he says there are names like Bob Dylan, The Byrds, The Doors, CCR, The Dead and tons of blues stuff in there. I get to go though them all tonight. I cant wait. :)

"Gimme Shelter" (the Stones)
"Machine Gun" (Hendrix...but it depends on the guitarist you can find)
"Vietnam" (Jimmy Cliff)
"War Pigs", "Children of the Grave" (Sabbath)

All come to mind.

that's some good ones, i'm open to any suggestions providing they are protest type songs. i am definitely doing Masters of War, by Dylan, probably a Joni Mitchell song or or two, War Pigs is a good idea, Vietnam definitely (that's what made me think of the whole idea)

all along the watchtower, i have some friends who could definitely play the hendrix version...i could try learning but im not a huge fan of electric, same with Machine Gun.

so anyone else who has other songs in mind is welcome to shout 'em out!

edit- oh damn im definitely doing fortunate son! :thumb:

[Woodstock]

Fortunate Son and Ohio.

[thickasabrick]

Buy some weed. :thumb:

haha. i can't believe that's the only suggestion you had.

usually when money comes along my way i like to spend it on books, cds/records, weed :upset:, and going to movies. even though it usually ends up buying gas for my car.

i wanna do this peace concert without making it sound like an "anti-american" concert. like obviously the US is a major contributer to the violence that's going on, but im more against Bush than the US in general. and definitely not Star Spangled Banner, I'm Canadian.

Actually last year this guy at my school played O Canada for a talent show, and he dressed like Hendrix, played a left handed strat turned around, played behind his back and all that jazz. he made it sound totally like hendrix with lots of distortion, wah and adding lots of great fills. no one really understood it but me though.

[Woodstock]

Would you be able to do Mama, I Dont Wanna Be A Soldier?

[thickasabrick]

John Lennon, it's off of Imagine.

give peace a chance would be a fun one to do.

it better not be a cheap shot at canada...

you don't see american teenagers having to put on concerts for charity because canada is killing harmless people.

[thickasabrick]

i was just kidding by the way about the america thing... if you guys can think of anymore protest songs i will be very grateful, i dont really have enough to make a big concert out of at this point.

but i must be going. im going to venture drinking again for the first time since in a few months...i hope it goes well. Have fun you guys!!! and pray i do too.

And the only reason why Hendrix never came to Canada is because 30000 tickets sold in Canada is like 30000 tickets in the USA exept the Canadian dollar is worth less.

I don't think Waters ever overtly cites "Animal Farm" as a source, but it's definately there. The song "Pigs (Three Different Ones)" is a dead giveaway.

[lunch998]

I don't think Waters ever overtly cites "Animal Farm" as a source, but it's definately there. The song "Pigs (Three Different Ones)" is a dead giveaway.

That's my point. I see the Waters used the Animal Farm concept to portray his view of British society, but I'm arguing this other guy that Animal Farm is the base idea behind it.

[Illmatic]

Then again, Waters also rips into former English conservative Mary Whitehouse in "Pigs (Three Different Ones)", so maybe that's not the best example.

What do you mean "in a way"? The songs kind of talk about each animal in animal farm (the sheeps being followers, pigs, greedy type guys, dogs do the work for the pigs) but it also relates to british society as well, Pigs are business men, Dogs are factory workers and sheep are suck ups to the business men.

I don't really see that concept at all. Factory workers? I don't think so.

The point I'm making is that Animal Farm is the base concept for the album, whether or not Waters uses it to relate to his society or not.

[RNR]

Your friend is right too though. Animal farm was just a farce on the Russian revolution so in a way the songs and the russian revolution are connected.

Actually it's about pre-revolutionary russia. Not britan. Although it's relitively the same.

It's easy to see how he got mixed up.

I guess I agree even though I can't really understand what you just said. Animal Farm is based on Communist Russia, and Animals uses the concept of the Animal Farm idea an applies to Britain in the time period, somewhat.

[Illmatic]

I don't have anything in mind right now...the ball's in your court.

[Creedence Clearwater]

You listen to Dylan, CCR, Eric Clapton, hendrix?

[Illmatic]

Dylan: I am a big Bob Dylan fan. I have a dozen Dylan albums (which may not sound like much compared the amount of material other Dylan fans have, but stil...)
CCR: I have only heard a few songs, but I have liked those songs
Eric Clapton: I loved Cream, Blind Faith, the Bluesbreakers, and Derek and the Dominos, but I found his solo career to be fairly mediocre
Hendrix: I am a big Hendrix fan too

[Creedence Clearwater]

Yeah i own a lot of Dylan probably 30+ studio albums maybe 120 live bootlegs and such, I my mnid he the best, ever.

[Creedence Clearwater]

I cant spell mind, sorry, I have resently be buying /recieving records and those bands/artists are at the forefront. I suppose the avatar gives it away that I love Dylan. Whats your fav album/era/genre/supporting musicians?

[Illmatic]

I only have the material he did in his prime ("Freewheelin'", "The Times They Are A-Changin'" "Bringing it all Back Home", "Highway 61", "Blonde on Blonde", "John Wesley Harding", "Nashville Skyline", "Desire") the Live 1964, Live 1966 and Live 1975 albums, and "Time Out Of Mind". I'm having trouble finding most of the other stuff he's done.

I've also found myself preferring the version of "Like a Rolling Stone" on the Live 1966 album to the one on "Highway 61"...it's bigger, louder, and rawer live.

EDIT: Forgot "Blood on the Tracks", which would mean that I have a baker's dozen Dylan albums.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Yeah my afv album would be a toss up between Another Side of Bob Dylan and Highway 61 revisited. it interesting that you didn't mention Blood on the Tracks, was that an oversite or what. I actually do not own the 1964, only the 1966, but I have enough bootlegs to demonstrate what he was on about.

[Illmatic]

I cant spell mind, sorry, I have resently be buying /recieving records and those bands/artists are at the forefront. I suppose the avatar gives it away that I love Dylan. Whats your fav album/era/genre/supporting musicians?

I like a lot of different music, so questions like that are tough...I can't have one favorite album. I'd say that my ten favorite albums are Sonic Youth's Daydream Nation, Public Enemy's It Takes a Nation of Millons to Hold Us Back, The Velvet Underground's The Velvet Underground & Nico, Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde, Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, The Who's Who's Next, Funkadelic's Maggot Brain, Jimi Hendrix's Are You Experienced?, The White Album, and Bob Marley's Catch a Fire.

For era, I'd have to say the 70's. Not for Zeppelin and Pink Floyd...there were many records made in that decade that eclipsed Floyd's and Zeppelin's work. Genre is hard to choose, and I don't know what "supporting musicians" are.

yeah, I love VU&N, the who and hendrix is always cool. Sorry i used the term support musicians out of context. As for a genre, I loved blues based material and although attempting to define the music you like into an era, I will go with mid 60's for obvious reasons.

[Illmatic]

Dylan really held the fort in the mid-60's until The Velvet Underground, the Allmans, The Who, and Jimi Hendrix debuted and the Stones and Beatles came into their own.

[Creedence Clearwater]

I agree with that, except that super poer, what where they called? the beatles or something? I gotta go now so cheers, and check out the link.
