Your boy was messed up.

Ok guys, Mx is like an ugly chick. If you're gonna get drunk, stay away from it.

[RNR]

:lol: That was hilarious. Thickasabrick was completely wasted.

Are there any Dylan albums similar to Highway 61 Revisited?

Hehe, drunken ramblings are always good.

Badmoon an I do argue like a married couple :(

[thickasabrick]

Well, I said that they came into their own, which was around '66, when they released Revolver; before then they were basically a pop group.

well i think if they released an album like..Sgt Peppers in like '64 the world wouldn't have really been ready for it. they were a great band because they were doing exactly the right thing at the right time. when it was time for a change in the 60's they were always heading up the new direction music was taking.

yikes i suppose i should delete those other posts i made last night

[Jude]

That's what I thought, but some kid is trying to tell me it is more about English Society and it's hardly based on Animal Farm at all.

That's me. Have you read Animal Farm? Have you looked at the lyrics of Animals?

[lunch998]

That's me. Have you read Animal Farm? Have you looked at the lyrics of Animals?

I came to an agreement about this last night. Read the rest of my posts a few pages ago.

[thickasabrick]

ya you guys all talked about all this yesterday, it should be done...what is Animal Farm anyway?

it sounds like a book, i always imagined it being a childrens tv show in England...kids shows are always based around animals.

[lunch998]

It's a book.

I still have yet to find an accurate tabs of Ohio by CSNY. Does anyone have one.

Its book by George Orwell, Its basically about communism.

[thickasabrick]

Its book by George Orwell, Its basically about communism.

so Animals is based off of a book about politics...so could it be considered a political type concept album, or no? i never really thought much into the songs on Animals.

[jpj]

I read Animal Farm in the 6th grade, but I didn't really understand the symbolism ya know since I was only like 11. I'm hoping if I read it again I'll understand the lyrics a little better.

[lunch998]

Yea it could be considered political, to an extent.

[Woodstock]

I'm going to start a review on Deja Vu by CSNY. I figure it's about time someone did it.

[Badmoon]

I'm going to review something as well. :)

[thickasabrick]

how do you review something? like do you just write it up and post it? or do you have to ask a mod or something?

i wouldn't mind doing a review..

[thickasabrick]

hey badmoon what kind of songs do you play on your banjo? do you learn folk/folk-rockish songs that have banjo, like neil young?

i heard this eagles song yesterday with good banjo in it, i dont remember the name, it was one of their more well known ones though.

[Badmoon]

hey badmoon what kind of songs do you play on your banjo? do you learn folk/folk-rockish songs that have banjo, like neil young?

I play Bluegrass songs. Not Folk, and rarely Country.

[thickasabrick]

thats cool. so are there bluegrass bands you listen to regularly? like buy their cd's and stuff? i haven't really found a bluegrass band that i listen to regularly, my guitar teacher just gives me traditional songs and i dunno who wrote them.

[Schyma]

Just got 50 new cds. Tons of bluegrass, blues, jazz and quite a bit of classic rock. :)

[lunch998]

Lucky bastard. What did you get?

[thickasabrick]

Just got 50 new cds. Tons of bluegrass, blues, jazz and quite a bit of classic rock. :)

FIFTY??!! did you pay for these cds? cuz that's quite a bit of moolah. the thing i hate about buying a lot of records, or cds in your case, at one time is that you never have time to listen to them all right away. you might listen to one, and like it, so you listen to it a couple more times...and then you try another and like it, and listen to it a few more times. after a while you realize you've only listened to about a half of them.

at least thats what happened to me. i have about 200 records i haven't listened to yet.

edit- dammit, i am filling out christmas cards for different people, and i accidently signed Love Jeff on one to a teacher. do you think that is a little too much? should i change it?

He got them for free somehow, he'd have to tell you the story. His landlord had 500 Cd's and offered to let him have some or something like that.

[Schyma]

6 Doors, 1 George H, OCMS (bluegrass band), 6 Phish, 1 John Coltrane, 8 Arosmith...and about 40 more I dont feel like naming.

[RockAndRoll]

woah, sweet.

[lunch998]

6 Doors, 1 George H, OCMS (bluegrass band), 6 Phish, 1 John Coltrane, 8 Arosmith...and about 40 more I dont feel like naming.

Awesome man. I think my copy of Happy Trails arrived, but my mom won't let me open the package because apparently there are other Cd's in there for me.

[thickasabrick]

oh right he mentioned that yesterday i believe. lucky guy.

if there's any you don't like, you can give them away as presents to your dear friends in Classic Rock :)

Actully it was more like 80. :D

My dad's landlord found 700 cds in a empty appartment and sold them to him for 50$ and I got to go through them all last night.

[thickasabrick]

looks like christmas came early for Schyma this year.

i had basketball practice this morning and it just about killed me.

does anyone know anything about the band Poco?

[RockAndRoll]

I still want to find someone who knows something about the paupers.

[lunch998]

I still want to find someone who knows something about the paupers.

I think you'll have to keep looking. I want to find someone else who has heard of Spirit.

[Schyma]

I want to find someone who has heard of Roy Harper.

[lunch998]

I want to find someone who has heard of Roy Harper.

We've all heard of him, but not heard him.

This is now the "What kind of person you want for Christmas" thread.

[Schyma]

We've all heard of him, but not heard him.

I know :upset:

[RockAndRoll]

I think you'll have to keep looking. I want to find someone else who has heard of Spirit.
I know I will, Although I did see something on them in a book at my school library. I'm sure most people here have heard one of their members play though.

[thickasabrick]

i've heard of Spirit..just cuz of the lame Stairway blah blah thing.

i've heard of Roy Harper.

never heard of Pauper...

so no Poco?

[lunch998]

Yea Spirit comes up because of their song Taurus and it's resemblence to the intro to Stairway. I actually have not heard Taurus, I still need to get Spirit's first album.

[Schyma]

Have any of you heard "American Prayer" by Jim M.?

[Badmoon]

thats cool. so are there bluegrass bands you listen to regularly? like buy their cd's and stuff? i haven't really found a bluegrass band that i listen to regularly, my guitar teacher just gives me traditional songs and i dunno who wrote them.

Yeah, I commonly listen to different forms of Bluegrass bands.

Some being
---------------
Bill Monroe
Flatt & Scruggs
Old & In the Way
Tony Rice
David Grisman
The String Cheese Incident
Doc Watson
Leftover Salmon
ect

[Schyma]

I just got some David Grisman.

[thickasabrick]

Have any of you heard "American Prayer" by Jim M.?

heard? i think i've read some of it, unless im thinking of the wrong thing.

[thickasabrick]

Badmoon do you ever wish there was a banjo forum?

[Badmoon]

Nah, hardly anyone would post.

[RockAndRoll]

I wonder if you would get any *good* responses to a banjo thread in the guitar forum, some of them may play banjo.

[thickasabrick]

ya it wouldn't be very popular. i notice a lot of the guys in the guitar forums are mostly about metal...not a lot of banjo in metal.

[Badmoon]

Most the banjo owners here don't really play banjo. They're the guys who buy every instrument they see, and never play it.

[thickasabrick]

ya i know people like that. im cheap enough that i would only buy something i would play all the time, except my ukelele, i bought that more as a souvenir from hawaii..but it is fun it play.

i really want a Sitar, but no where in my city has one i can play.
i also want a mandolin, just because a lot of the songs i write/play would sound good with mandolin in them.

[Badmoon]

Sitar takes a lot more dedication than other instruments. You usually have to be taught to learn anything. And usually the only places to learn are Indian temples.

[thickasabrick]

i better ring up old Ravi. is he still kickin?

is anyone else here who plays an instrument extremely uptight about it being in tune? i can't stand when its out of tune just by a little bit. i think it might be more of an acoustic thing, because with distortion you don't notice as much.

[thickasabrick]

hey badmoon whats the significance of Terrapin Station? i heard it mentioned in one of the Deads songs on Workingmans Dead, and then they also had the album. does it have any meaning?

[Badmoon]

Well, if you hadn't know "Terrapin" are a small type of turtle. In many cultures they are valued as the animal of God. And there is of course the myths that our universe is actually a Terrapin's shell.

[thickasabrick]

interesting interesting. turtles are my favourite animals, i collect wood/stone carvings of them. i never knew terrapin and turtle had any connection though.

so are the Grateful Dead just fans of turtles...or are they trying to show deeper meanings with the whole universe/god thing?

[Badmoon]

Terrapin are very mythical creatures, they have many meanings.

Alot could be told through the song "Terrapin Station: Part 1". It's lyrically fantastic and explains tons.

Now, I'd give you the URL to The Annotated Grateful Dead Lyric page, but it's down right now. If you ever want to find it type in "Grateful Dead lyrics" in a Google search. There, you can browse lyrics to many Dead songs. But the special thing is, that they attempt to explain the signicance of each song. There you will find many answers about the meaning behind Terrapin.

[thickasabrick]

awesome. thanks badmoon...i want a terrapin now.

so is the song Terrapin Station Pt 1 a good one to download?

i will do a search.

[Badmoon]

It's a very interesting song, and has numerous sections. It is also 16:00 long.

Fabulous song though.

[Broken Arrow]

What in the hell does that have to do with classic rock?

*got HTWWW* :cool:

Robert Plant really needs to sing it like he did on the albums, I understand why people wonder why he's not gay.

Also, I never knew page could play as fast as he does live ;)

I also get Queen's greatest hits ;)

Yay for jew day.

[Creedence Clearwater]

Which Queen greatest hits volume did you get, all of them rock not roll?

[Broken Arrow]

Is Rock acctually a Jew?

[RNR]

I got "we will rock you".

Which is basicly just their radio songs.

Still a very good collection of songs.

rock did i tell you about the dream i had that included you in a brief section?...

i was outrunning a fleet of cops and helicopters because i tried racing a corvette, and as i was trying to outrun them...a big van with the license plate RocknotRoll turned in front of me, and showed me a secret cottage i could hide in. And the back of your van had a picture of your avatar all over it. when i got to the cottage my family was already there...weird dream.

i think i prefer the Deads more acoustic stuff. anybody else agree?

[thickasabrick]

[thickasabrick]

nope it was a complete wreck inside though. and for some reason the world became angry at me, and threw eggs through the windows.

and yes appreciate_it, we have talked about Queen. Actually you may find them mentioned on this very page.

It's a yearly festival. It mainly involves Jam Bands and Roots bands. But the occasional Jazz or Alt band may show up.

Doesn't Keep on Phishin' go every year?

Where does it take place? I like festivals, we always have the Regina Folk Festival...for some reason i have a sealed record of the 12th Regina Folk Festival. i'm not sure if it's supposed to be the best or what the deal is, because i checked and there aren't any other RFF's recorded.

edit- i would love to show you my painting, but i can't post pictures. i dont have a camera or a scanner or whatever you need. maybe i will at my friends house.

Tennessee eh..

and whats Keep on Phishin? is that some sort of cover band? or do you mean the mx member?

speaking of artwork...in grade 6 we had to draw album covers, and since i was so (un)talented at drawing, i decided to try drawing Satisfaction. I still have it hanging in my room, and its not bad for a little kid drawing, but anytime someone comments on it i make sure they know i drew it a long time ago. looking back, i dont think i even followed all the designs that the record had, i just made up my own.

[Creedence Clearwater]

A revolver cover art/painting would look good

[lunch998]

I drew Disraeli Gears, it looks good.

So, I was watching the Simpsons and they went to London England and Homer and Marge were looking for Bart and Lisa in a giant Ferris wheel and Homer says and I quote-"There's Jimmy Page one of the greatest thieves of american black music to ever walk the earth."

Ha! Blues is one step up from elevator music. But then again, if a certain form of the Blues is on my team in this discussion, then they of course cannot be classified with that description.

;)



Fight your own fights, puss! :angry:

Blues ROCK he said. Not just plain blues. Hard rock guitars that are influenced by blues guitar and blues vocals. I'll agree theres only a few "blues" artists that keep it interesting.

And there was no real fight in the first place. Miik said something and I agreed.

[Badmoon]

Blues ROCK he said. Not just plain blues.

Do you think my answer changes?

And god, you need to learn how to take a joke.

[RNR]

So you find blues/blues rock boring? But not roots/jam stuff?

Interesting.

But the blues is so :cool:

How can you deny that smile ----> :cool: ?

[Bluesman522]

^ That must be it :rolleyes:

That Bonnaroo DVD was great. Great set of musicians.

[jpj]

A Bonnaroo DVD would be awesome. Do they have several or just one DVD and who all was on it?

[Badmoon]

They have a couple.

On mine there was...

Jack Johnson
Polyphonic Spree
Nickel Creek
Warren Haynes
North Mississippi Allstars
The Allman Brothers
The Dead
Tortoise
James Brown
Flaming Lips
Leo Kottke & Mike Gordon
Ben Harper
Robert Randolph & The Family Band
My Morning Jacket
Sonic Youth
Widespread Panic
Medeski, Martin & Wood
Antibalas

[lunch998]

That sounds great, I should get one of them.

[Illmatic]

Other than Jack Johnson, that's a great lineup.

[MC5]

Most of the people at my school like classic metal and glam.Black Sabbath,AC/DC,Twisted Sister,Motley Crue. I only know two other people that are really into classic rock. My favorites are The Rolling Stones,The Stooges,The Frost The Nazz Led Zeppelin.Mostly garage and psycadelic stuff.

[Badmoon]

Other than Jack Johnson, that's a great lineup.

He's one of the best on the list IMO. He perfects harmony between him and his band. I love his album On and On. :)

They only play one song from each band. But the whole thing is interesting.

it would be better with the other jack johnson

[Against Miik!]

Jack Johnson is good.

...the old boxer?

[Creedence Clearwater]

...the old boxer?

No, well yes, that would be cool, but even more cool would be the large black blues guitar man

[Illmatic]

Right.

There are too many Jack Johnsons.

[jpj]

That sucks that they only play one song from each. I think that would end up just making me angry.

what does everyone think of Eric Clapton?

I'm not a fan of his more recent works, but everything else is wonderful.

I don't like him as much as most do, but he's pretty good.

[clown_phobia]

cool! I think I might get something of his... possibly The Cream of Clapton and/or Eric Clapton Unplugged.

[BlitzkriegBop08]

during this entire thread have the ramones been mentioned once :confused:

[jpj]

Because they suck.

[RNR]

Claptoon unplugged is a must have.

[RNR]

during this entire thread have the ramones been mentioned once :confused:

We destermined that they were classic punk. Not rock.

[lunch998]

For Clapton you should get into Cream, Blind Faith, early Yardbirds, Derek and the Dominoes, or John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers. But I guess the Cream of Clapton would be a good place to start.

[jpj]

I want the Crossroads box set. Does anyone know how much it costs?

[Against Miik!]

Every era of Clapton has its good and bad, but Cream is definitely my favorite, as well as unplugged.

[keep on phishin']

I want the Crossroads box set. Does anyone know how much it costs?


I got mine for a little less than 60 bucks.

[lunch998]

I mainly like the "classic rock" era of Clapton, there are some shining spots in his other eras though.

[clown_phobia]

like "tears in heaven"

[RNR]

I don't know what that is really. He has some "soft rock" rock stuff. If you're into ballads then get "Pilgrim".

[Badmoon]

I got mine for a little less than 60 bucks.

Was it you who goes to Bonnaroo every year you can? Cause we were just talking about it. :)

As far as music wise, In 2004 it was wonderful when they had a huge jam between Les Claypool, Trey Anastasio, Warren Haynes, and Chris Robinson. It was one of the greatest jams I have ever heard.

Highlight Sets:

Galactic (nothing better than a galactic late night show)
Les Claypool (the closer)
Widespread panic
Medeski, Martin, and Wood
Leftover Salmon (made me change the way I look at this band)

But the best thing that has happened at Bonnarroo was when I had the chance to meet Trey Anastasio. This was made possible because my friend's cousin helps set up equipment for Trey. Even though, Trey really didn't have that great of a performance at the show, It was still a great experience to meet him. I have pictures I'll try and post them sometime.

The only bad part about it was the smell, it smelled of about 3,000 hippies that havent showered for about a week.

As for 2003 its mostly a blurr( :smoke: ), I really wish I wouldn't have done that now.

I liked Classic Rock before any of those.

I've miss-judged you :).

Seriously, System Of A Down? Did you get that free or something?

You gave The Soft Bulletin 4 stars, and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots 4 1/2 stars. Weren't you the one who used to tell me that Yoshimi sucks compared to the rest of the Flaming Lips stuff?

[RNR]

Yes, and what about the Dream Theater? That's pretty much their best album, did you think that was any good?

(gilmour, i'm going to smack you if you campaigne in my thread anymore)

[Badmoon]

Interesting. Do you like it?

Yeah, it has some good songs and is really interesting. I'm mostly concerned with the vocals when it comes to Tool. I do believe that Aenima is not as good as most say it is though.

[Badmoon]

My thoughts on certain albums change frequently. The turning point for my thoughts on Yoshimi was when I heard most of those songs live, and really liked them.

Yes, and what about the Dream Theater? That's pretty much their best album, did you think that was any good?

Instrumentally the album is great, there are a few good tunes, but the lead singers voice is very cheesy. Similar to Stephen Perry's of Journey. Petrucci also has one of the most generic guitar tones ever.

Certain songs on the album I really like, the rest are meh to me. Too tr00 about it being overhyped.

Now to be on topic of classic rock: I am thinking of getting an Allman Brothers Band album. I was thinking of getting Eat a Peach, good idea?

No, I just downloaded some stuff. Perry Farell robbed my chance of seeing them live :(.

Badmoon: oh okays.

Gilmour: Eat A Peach is their best.

Guitarguy: do that for me please :)

[Badmoon]

Now to be on topic of classic rock: I am thinking of getting an Allman Brothers Band album. I was thinking of getting Eat a Peach, good idea?

Yeah, Eat a Peach is fabulous. It contains every form of music they would play.

[guitrguy]

I will, when I get off.

[Badmoon]

Are you two...niggas?

Brothers is the correct term.

That's funny. I never knew you two were...niggas.

hey badmoon i wasn't aware you had Pet Sounds. what do you think of it? i've wanted to buy it forever but i can't find it anywhere.

i'm thinking of forming a band that has beach boyish vocals and pink floydish instrumentals. the two could be put together to make some pretty interesting music, although its hard playing floyd and singing like brian wilson at the same time.

[Woodstock]

That's a nice list you have there Badmoon. Say, you seem to have Hot Rats...

[Broken Arrow]

Badmoon gave Stiff Upper Lip a...............4.5/5:eek:

[Badmoon]

Badmoon gave Stiff Upper Lip a...............4.5/5

It's a much more different album, compared to their other stuff. I use to have most the ACDC albums, but I then sold them.

hey badmoon i wasn't aware you had Pet Sounds. what do you think of it? i've wanted to buy it forever but i can't find it anywhere.

Listen to what Medopalis said.

That's a nice list you have there Badmoon. Say, you seem to have Hot Rats...

Tell me know when you want it, let me upload it, and then I'll give it to you.

[RNR]

Pet Sounds is one of the best albums of all time in my opinion. I really like The Beach Boys, but everything they say about that album is true, and it's their best work by quite a long way. I found it pretty easy to find on Amazon though...get Smile by Brian Wilson as well (it's one of the best albums of this year).

Yeah, that's pretty much their best album. They don't like it though, in an interview they said it sucked and some of their other stuff was much better.

It's only them that says that though :)

[Riva]

Well, everyone knows that artists don't know as much about their music as their fans. ;)

To RnR:You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later.

[thickasabrick]

hm..i have two of their greatest hits albums. (beach boys) one didn't have Good Vibrations so i bought another one because it was cheap.

besides Pet Sounds and Smile are there any other albums that i should check out? cuz i noticed at the record store they had about twenty beach boys albums, but not pet sounds. so if i can't find it i will buy some other ones anyway.

[RNR]

I don't rep just to get rep. No need for it



























But if you want to you can :)



*just got Hotel California*. Before I only had The Eagle's greatest hits. Good but I wasn't as impressed with it as radio stations try to brainwash me into being.

Get Endless Summer :). It makes me go -----> :)

[Broken Arrow]

I only have a greatest hits album by them.:(

It has 20 songs though.:)

I noticed that the exact same effect is used on the songs Echoes and Is Anybody Out There?

It's the one where the guitar sounds like a lady shreiking.

[thickasabrick]

i like Hotel California. I have quite a bit of Eagles records, 4 of The Long Run..im not sure why. I love how easy they are to listen to, like at the time when punk was taking off, and bands like Kiss and Ac/Dc were trying to be as loud as possible, the Eagles were always there just to relax and chill out to.

[Riva]

Endless Summer is a great album, for me at least.

And I can only get into a few of the Eagles' songs. Tequila Sunrise, and some of their other greatest hits seems to be all I can stand. They're a real hit-or-miss band to me.

what is that thing? at first i thought it was a Theremin, but i'm really not sure...it really startles you out of your groove when you are high/just relaxing to the music

[Broken Arrow]

I was thinking some effect on maybe a pedal steel guitar but I don't know/. :confused:

[Riva]

Well, I assume this is Pink Floyd's Echoes?

If so, I think Gilmour was using his Strat, and just had his effects pedal going all out.

[xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx]

I have a couple of 8-tracks by the Eagles, but I haven't checked them out yet because I broke the 8-track player last night. :upset: I'm not sure if I should spend money on any of their CDs though.

I'd like to buy a Doors CD though...what's their best?

Morison Hotel or s/t:)

[thickasabrick]

the other night my brother was having a party, and i came home from Oceans 12 and was trying to write a song, and it was hard because the party was so loud, and then i noticed it sounded exactly like a pink floyd song (very interstellar overdrivish)...

downstairs someone was playing my guitar, someone in the other room was playing my organ, someone was bashing away on drums in my bro's room, plus i could hear people laughing and there was cheering coming from a football video game. everything seemed to fit together perfectly although everyone was playing something completely different. i wish i could have recorded it.

buy them all, they are all amazing in their own way. my favourite is Strange Days, although their s/t probably has their most well known songs. LA Woman isn't near as psychadelic as their first ones, its more R&Bish almost.

so it depends what you like i suppose.

Strange Days is great too. People Are Strange is a **** fine song (better than strange days, they should change the title to "People Are Strange").
