Classic Rock

[RockAndRoll]

hey mekkalayakay (man your names hard to get right), what songs/albums from Three Dog Night do you have? i've got a couple albums by them, but i haven't listened to them yet.
YOU SHOULD!

[RockAndRoll]

I have a few records by them but I also havent listened to them.:(
YOU SHOULD!

[thickasabrick]

I have a few records by them but I also havent listened to them.:(

the weird thing is...one time my grandpa came over, and was looking through my record collection. and he was like "oh three dog night, they made some great music."

i was wondering why he commented on them, when i have hundreds of other albums by much better known, and mostly likely more talented bands/artists.

[Broken Arrow]

YOU SHOULD!
What do they sound like? I have only heard a song or two.

[Mekkalayakay]

/adds some Steppenwolf

[thickasabrick]

/adds some Steppenwolf

there's a good man!

may i suggest some jethro tull, while i believe badmoon tried to suggest some grateful dead.

[RockAndRoll]

I hate to point out the blaringly obvious, but the best way to find out what they sound like is to listen to them.

[guitrguy]

also some George Harrison and John Lennon

[RNR]

Jeff Healey.

Not really classic rock, but good ;).

edit: and The Doors. Seriously, The Doors, man.

[RockAndRoll]

But I guess you could say they have sort of an electric organ sound that has a neat oldies sort of "hollow" (not in a bad way) psychadelic sound. That's the best description I can give, as bad as it may be, addmitedly I haven't heard as much from them as I'd like.

[thickasabrick]

hahaha its funny how everyones "trademark" band is suggested to him.

Schyma000: Listen to Roy Harper!

(he didn't actually say that, but im sure he will if he's around)

[Kreator2112]

what do you just pick random bands to dl one day? if dio is on that list, add iron maiden, judas priest, and dokken. and if youve ever listened to rush, dl yes songs.

Already have all them.


No, I said it before, it's "I've waited to long to check out some really good classic rock, I need to now" day.


And thanks for all the suggestions. Everything on this page that was suggested is currently on my download list.

[thickasabrick]

tonight i was listening to Lennons "Imagine" album as i was doing homework. I noticed his solo stuff sounds more like The Beatles, than the other members solo stuff did. Anyone else agree with me on that..or is it just in my head?

I really like the last song off of that album, i forget what it's called though.

Well he was the main song writer.

[Badmoon]

Geroge Harrison - Any Road

Probably my 2nd favorite song ever.

[Mekkalayakay]

Jeff Healey and The Doors too? :):):)

The Doors: currently downloading
Jeff Healey: currently finding on Soulseek


:cool: I'd rep you, like I did everyone else who mentioned bands, but "I must spread the love before giving it to you again".

[guitrguy]

Like every one eh?

[thickasabrick]

Did Clapton have a lot of solo albums? i've never really looked much into his solo career, and i only own his Slowhand record. Which ones are his best?

when i was shopping yesterday, there were a lot of Clapton greatest hits cds, and i noticed the vast majority of the songs weren't from his solo career.

[Broken Arrow]

thickasabrick-Jethro Tull
Badmoon-Grateful Dead
Creedence-Bob Dylan
RocknotRoll-Jeff Healy
Lunch-The Who/Cream

THese are the "trademark" bands that thickasabrick was talking about right?

you forgot one....Livewired: Neil Young. am i right?

[RNR]

Jeff Healey isn't my favorite band. Not even in the top 10. But it's the mullet that keeps him as my avatar.

Well, and also he kicks ***. But ya know...

I don't really have a trademark band.

livewired, you would be Neil Young. I can't beat you when it comes to neil youngness.

[Broken Arrow]

:thumb:
you forgot one....Livewired: Neil Young. am i right?
Yeah.:)

RocknotRoll:it doesnt have to be your favourite. It is just a trademark of yours.

[thickasabrick]

ya Rock doens't push Jeff Healy on us as much as some would think. He actually rarely mentions him, unless he's suggesting music.

i'm in a good mood today, so i'm gonna give out rep to you fine gentlemen. do you just click on the little button and it gives the person points?

[guitrguy]

I'm glad to see no one knows my trademark....

[Woodstock]

I dont have a trademark band, it's awesome. I have a new obsession every week.

[thickasabrick]

guitrguy you seem like the beatles/their solo careers type of guy.

but you are actually quite mysterious when i think about it.

[Broken Arrow]

Pfft. Your just a poser.

[Jam2Me]

Geroge Harrison - Any Road

Probably my 2nd favorite song ever.
Yeah that's one of my faves too, a very different style for George but one hell of a song. Actually that's a really good CD (Brainwashed) for being kind of thrown together in the end.

[Badmoon]

I dont have a trademark band, it's awesome. I have a new obsession every week.

Your loyalty is weak.

[Jam2Me]

Pfft. Your just a poser.
lol

I'd label myself as an Allman Brothers Band freak. :wave:

[thickasabrick]

Your loyalty is weak.

haha thats what i was thinking.

what does it mean when it says "you must spread some reputation around before blah blah blah."

[Woodstock]

Your loyalty is weak.
Loyalty means **** to me, it's versatility and a large variety of taste. I love having a new band every week.

[guitrguy]

guitrguy you seem like the beatles/their solo careers type of guy.

Correct actually. Tis my fave.

[Jam2Me]

I used to be like that...instead of having one band I just picked a genre.

[Broken Arrow]

You can listen to a band more in a week then your favourite band. But you should have one band that is your favourite all the time although you dont have to listen to thewm as much as any band at a given time.

[Badmoon]

Loyalty means **** to me, it's versatility and a large variety of taste. I love having a new band every week.

Your diverse and nomad like lifestyle intrigues all. Now please tell us all why you are loyal to this thread, and possibly this genre :angry:

But you should have one band that is your favourite all the time although you dont have to listen to thewm as much as any band at a given time.

Well, not neccesarily should have a favorite band, but it's always nice to have one. But you can't blame someone who hasn't found their's.

[RNR]

Kenny Wayne Sheperd is dangerously close to Jeff Healey for my favorite recent blues rock guitarist :eek:

But Kenny has boring straight long hair. No mullet or goofy looking jazz guy hair. So he won't go on the avatar.

[thickasabrick]

No, that makes no sense.

Maybe because I like this type of music, we're talking about bands, not genres.

[Broken Arrow]

No, that makes no sense.
I know Im crazy and ....carzy but I understand what i posted..

[thickasabrick]

No, that makes no sense.

it made sense to me. I probably listen to my favourite band much less than other bands. I go through phases too, but my favourite band will always be there. That's why i know it's my favourite.


did that sound very girly to anyone else?

I'm the same like I dont listen to Neil every day but he is my favourite.

[thickasabrick]

who do you guys think is the best rock and roll band within these concepts:

1. simple lyrics that are very identifyable to a young teenage audience.
2. upbeat, exciting music that would be fun to dance or party to.

cuz really, isn't that what rock n roll used to be all about? until Dylan, the beatles, and their peers made it more about their own self expression.

i will post my answer after i hear a few of yours.

The Beatles, man.

Although later in their carreer their lyrics got more meaningful.

[Broken Arrow]

Earlier Beatles and some Zeppelin

[thickasabrick]

The Beatles, man.

Although later in their carreer their lyrics got more meaningful.

probably the second best answer, i'm afraid that's where you are wrong my friend.

think about it, it's definitely the Beach Boys.

reason: all of their songs are about the typical 60's (or even now) teenage life. dating, hot rods, surfing (california life), school, friends, they even wrote about getting your car taken away by your parents. i mean come on, every song they wrote was basically all about being a teenager.

just my opinion though, i suppose

[Badmoon]

The only kind of party that i'd listen to Kashmir, No Quarter, Achilies Last Stand, Dazed And Confused and stuff is a stoner party...


But you said some do that's stuff like black dog and rock and roll and Immigrant song.

Ooo, and The Beach boys and The Kinks.

All of that old stuff.

Their serious songs outnumber their non serious.

yes and edited it earlier for the other point I had :(

How about There Is No Definite Answer!!!!!!!!!!!!


j/k
Beatles for me

[thickasabrick]

no one quite understands poor Livewired.

[Badmoon]

So, The Minutmen...they're good. Tell um Rock.

[Broken Arrow]

Thickasabrick had the best answer I says.

[Broken Arrow]

[RNR]

Yes, fun, upbeat music that is simple.

Great to party to due to the 2 minutes songs ;)

[thickasabrick]

i'm watchng tv, and this just in, a quote from Ashlee Simpson:

"I've been listening to a lot of 80's music lately, like Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, and Courtney Love."

i dont even know where to start with this.

[Broken Arrow]

How old are they?

[Badmoon]

They are not Classic Rock. Their prime was from 1980 - 1985.

[thickasabrick]

i'll have to plead ignorance on this one.. i've never heard the Minutmen, or even heard of them. are they good?

Really, she is. I'm glad she was caught in the Milli Vanilli position. :lol:

[Badmoon]

i'll have to plead ignorance on this one.. i've never heard the Minutmen, or even heard of them. are they good?

They're commonly refered to as Punk. But they are much more. The only thing about them that is really Punk, is their attitude. I actually see a bunch of Country/Folk influence, and definitley CCR influence. And their lyrics have a lot of witt to them.

"Jackass" used their song "Corona" for their theme.

[Badmoon]

Really, she is. I'm glad she was caught in the Milli Vanilli position. :lol:

Same with Lindsay Lohen.

Page 700!!!

[thickasabrick]

Can't a bomb just drop on the Simpson family, they have poisoned the world with their stupidity enough. Girls are going to grow up thinking that being stupid is attractive.

oh ya, and remember how i was talking about that party last night? i remember something very funny: Me and my 2 friends sat on a couch across these two other guys, i noticed my friend sneering at their shirt. Their shirts both said Abercrombie and Fitch (sp?). then i noticed them snearing at our shirts, i looked down. I had a Doors shirt, my other friend had Pink Floyd, and my other had Jimi Hendrix. it was soo funny!

anyone else have that problem? liking classic rock makes you appear poor, or dirty to some people? maybe it's just where i live.

[Woodstock]

Same with Lindsay Lohen.
I hate her so much. I dont know how every celebrity thinks they can make an album. They just need to pull their heads out.

[Badmoon]

They were laughing at your generic shirts. Well, maybe...

[thickasabrick]

i dont like to name names, but it has taken some of us quite a while to notice we are on page 700. sometimes i wonder whether it's me who is thick as a brick.

Some times, but I also where some nicer (as in polo/sweater/button-up) shirts.


Edit: Badmoon has teh school!!!!

[RNR]

probably not. All shirts that aren't genric get made fun of.

All of my band shirts are generic. Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Doors and Hendrix :(

But the key is I actually listen to those bands. That's where I have the edge ;)

The question is do they know you have the edge?

Yeah, I can go up to people with the same band on their shirt and ask them questions about the band. Usually they make fools of themselves.

and i only buy band shirts if i stand behind the band 100 percent. usually i just buy a shirt if i wanna advertise how much i like them, so anytime i buy a new shirt, my followers know what band i am currently pushing.

how on earth could you get banned so much? the only time i was ever banned was when i told DoopaBee (is that his name?) to shut up. then i thought it meant i was banned for good and i made this account.

you are an idiot. Don't come in here and assume we are all mindless idiots who only listen to one genre of music. we aren't gonna start bowing down to you just because you say that all music other than metal and classic rock sucks. i think blues and folk is much better than metal.

you are an idiot. Don't come in here and assume we are all mindless idiots who only listen to one genre of music. we aren't gonna start bowing down to you just because you say that all music other than metal and classic rock sucks. i think blues and folk is much better than metal.

grow up and don't be so close-minded.
Well said.

[Kreator2112]

metal hasnt evolved as much as blues and folk

The Beatles were better than Jesus. But I don't know if they were as big as Jesus :/. He sure has a lot of followers.

Though music-wise the Beatles beat his *** :smash:

[Kreator2112]

wow youre an egomaniac. last time i checked you werent god so get over yourself.

[B0nz0]

ladies, this thread is to discuss classic rock, not bicker and argue about who's stupider.

and to settle the jesus debate, jesus was the son of god but also god

the beatles were gods

there is only one god

therefore, jesus and the beatles were one and the same

[guitrguy]

wow youre an egomaniac. last time i checked you werent god so get over yourself.
Do you not understand the concept of CLASSIC ROCK. This is not a metal thread, no one in here wants to here about it.

[Seafroggys]

Jesus taught about love. The Beatles taught about love.

However, I'm not religious, so obviously I'm gonna say the Beatles is better.

And, even though no one really wants to talk about, while we're on subject:

Even though I'm a classic rock guru/nutcase, I really love Metallica, though I think most other metal blows. I'm wondering why I think this way, if they did something similar to what people 10 years earlier did (I'm talking 80s Metallica btw), and if other people think the same way.

[Gossamer175]

As do I, I'm not going to limit myself. Though 99% of metal really really sucks I really like some of it (like 7 bands or so :/)

Now lets keep it the hell out of the thread ;).

metal needs to stay out of here. love it or hate it, this is about classic rock. the thread was made just becuz the only threads in the r&m forum until that point were all metal. thus this was founded as a metal free zone.

[B0nz0]

so to bring it back to classic rock - The Band is fantastic and very underrated. Discuss

Being that it's known that George and Paul (The two best members) were followers of Jesus. Jesus > Beatles

[Badmoon]

and what do you guys think of robert randolph? (I know he's not classic rock, as he's fairly new, but he does play in a similar style)

We have had some talk about him in the past. Mostly me, fighting off others, because I said he was better than Clapton. Which he is!! :angry:

Can you really compare Clapton and Randolph? Because Randolph plays slide guitar, which is much different from regular guitar. So maybe they're both equally skilled at their own thing?

i dunno, they may have wrote it together. after all, the band was his backing band

Just finished watching The Last Waltz. You Canadians are weird guys. Robbie's a little normal, and I suppose their drummer (But is he even Canadian) normal, but the rest of them are creepy. :p

Crippled Inside, and Give Peace a Chance

[guitrguy]

what's everyone's favourite John Lennon solo songs?
Working Class Hero, Imagine.

[Woodstock]

Mine would be Imagine, Working Class Hero, Cold Turkey, Mother, and Happy Xmas(War is over).

[guitrguy]

I'm going to have to win the cliche award and say Imagine...yeah, everyone says it, but it really is an incredible song..
If it gets you teary its a good song.

[DeusExMachina]

I have the feeling I'll be the only one who says this, but... Watching The Wheels. I love that song.

The money went to charity, which makes it a good cause.

And i'm sure he's playing a brand new guitar that sounds better.

[thickasabrick]

i'd have to say my favourite John Lennon song is Imagine. I actually haven't heard a lot of his solo stuff, but that is definitely an amazing song.

[Creedence Clearwater]

he has maple fretboard ones now with custom paintjobs

/knows blackie was maple too

[Creedence Clearwater]

Oh, and thanks rock not roll for the rep now I can have stars soon.

Maybe Eric will play a les paul or SG with cream like last time?

[thickasabrick]

i wonder if he misses blackie.

[RNR]

We need to get Creedence and thickasabrick some stars.

I'm sure he misses blackie. But feels good about auctioning it off for charity.

[guitrguy]

I did my part.

[thickasabrick]

i finally realized how much rep means to people, so im starting to give points. it keeps telling me i have to spread it around though.

i miss my first guitar and it was a hunk of junk. it was usually a fifty fifty chance of the pickups even working when i turned on the amp, and even then, sometimes the tuners decided not to work.

[lunch998]

As for the SG, isnt Jimmy's double neck the most convenanted of all?

My Kramer use to be like that until I got it fixed. It is still pretty messed up, but it's a classic :(. Floyd Rose and everything :p

[Jam2Me]

Yeah I'm pretty much the same way, he's kinda jumping the gun with his solo career.

[thickasabrick]

has anyone here listened to the normal DSOTM cd? and also the Digitally remastered one?

i bought the remastered one today, as a present to myself, and i really didn't notice much different between this one and the original one.

I like JPJ's triple neck with the mandolin at the top.

is he a solo artist? or part of a group? i'm assuming he's some sort of blugrasser (if that's a real term).

Yeah, earlier player. He was one of the players who was playing Bluegrass before it even had a name. Though, he is not even close to one of the earliest.

Does that include those guitarists who made there way to the crossroads?

Robert Johnson? Tommy Johnson? He could take them, I believe they are about a decade before his prime though.
