Classic Rock

[RNR]

The DSOTMs aren't very different methinks.

[RockAndRoll]

I haven't ever noticed a difference, but I've never looked for one, or listened to them back to back. I need to find my copy of DSOTM.

[magicbus]

The newest edition, 30th anniversary, is a SACD, rather than just cd. If you get a SACD player, its supposed to make it sound much better, like surround sound or something. But the player is like a hundred something.

[RockAndRoll]

I'll bet you it's still better on vinyl anyways.

[magicbus]

That's probably true :thumb:

[RockAndRoll]

I really want to set up my dad's turn table.

[magicbus]

I really want to get DSOTM on vinyl.

/turntable already set up.

[RockAndRoll]

I wonder if I have it, I can't remember.

[B0nz0]

i just got an emerson lake and palmer greatest hits album, jimi hendrix live @ woodstock, and bela fleck and the flecktones Live Art from my local used record store. the best part, they were all ten dollars or under. and in great shape. the elp kicks *** so far, and i can't wait to pop in hendrix. of course bela fleck will be sick, he plays banjo. and if that weren't enough he has victor wooten on bass!

[simpleplan_is_sweet!]

hello i am a fan of....the doors.

[RockAndRoll]

Nice I'd like to hear some reviews after you've listened some more.

[RockAndRoll]

hello i am a fan of....the doors.
:lol: good for you.

[simpleplan_is_sweet!]

:lol: good for you.



are you....laughing? :amaze:

[RockAndRoll]

are you....laughing? :amaze:
yep.

[simpleplan_is_sweet!]

**** i was trying to play it smooth...be cool you know? didnt work huh?

[RockAndRoll]

nope.

[KARMAPOL1CE]

"Titties and Beer" is such a great song.

[simpleplan_is_sweet!]

ahh **** im a loser! oh ****! im going to bed. to cry. and eat lots of candy

[RockAndRoll]

I do!

[Riva]

So yeah. I bought Tommy, by the Who. I must admit it is a concept album, and a half, but what is their obsession with Tommy, and his life? Who is Tommy? And it seems kinda Floydish, ala The Wall.

[Badmoon]

Tommy's the son. The deaf, dumb, and blind boy. The story basically documents his extraodinary life, through fame and salvation.

[Broken Arrow]

:lol: I'm not sure, but I think just about every regular in this thread likes The Doors, although I'm not sure how many people in here really love them. ;)
Oh I love the Doors. :naughty:

[Woodstock]

**** i was trying to play it smooth...be cool you know? didnt work huh?
All you gotta do is jump into the conversation, and we'll find out your tastes as you keep posting.

Those are some nice records B0nz0, I have the JH Live At Woodstock. It's very good.

[thickasabrick]

Tommy is a fictional character. i'm pretty sure they just made him up for something to sing/write songs about.

umm...simple_plan_is sweet..just relax. (is he a joke?) we arent gonna kill you for entering this thread. im glad there's some more doors fans out there, im a huge fan. what's your favourite album?

[guitrguy]

"Titties and Beer" is such a great song.
Yes it is, Zappa is great.

[Woodstock]

Wow, http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5959918&postcount=131

The wasn't very nice, guys. The Doors are awesome and you scarred away yet another person from the thread.

I still need Tommy :eek: :(.

I didn't like Tommy too much. Pinball Wizard and Overture were the only songs that really interested me.

Please do, i have never seen such idiocy before. Pink Floyd a crap rock band for people who listen to homos? What is he on?

[Woodstock]

Im gonna go flame him.
Good. I already did.

He probably just made an account to say that, though.

[guitrguy]

Mine went into depth though.

[Woodstock]

Mine went into depth though.
Yes, but mine summed it up. :lol:

[Gossamer175]

Hopefully he'll get the point.

He tried to give me neg rep, but hes doesn't have any to give or take.

Haha, what an idiot.

[Woodstock]

Deja Vu review complete.

[thickasabrick]

today one of my teachers brought her guitar and a mic and did a little performance for us.

she played a few songs of her own, but she also played 2 beatles songs, blackbird and eleanor rigby. i didn't think anyone could make eleanor rigby half decent on just an acoustic guitar, but she did.

she played Dylan - Knockin on Heavens Door (sang too in tune), a Cat Stevens song (don't know what it's called), Neil Young - Castles Burning (sounded great) and that's about it.

it was annoying because while she was singing her songs, people kept shouting out other songs they wanna hear, which pisses me off cuz people do that when i perform for them as well. can't they just sit there and appreciate good music without trying to ruin it for the performer and everyone else.

other than that it was great.

[jpj]

I always think it's funny when the dumb drunk yells "FREEBIRD!!!".

[clown_phobia]

My love for The Who is increasing fast. They have such good songs!! :)
Pete Townsend has influenced my guitar playing recently.

What bands are you guys liking increasingly much?

[RNR]

The Who!

Man they rock.

[Distant Echoes]

The who for me too. I only had Whos next and Quadrophenia and i loved it so much. I just got Live at Leeds a few days ago and its great. Im listening to My Generation right now...15 minutes long, but doesnt lose my attention for one second. I just cant believe i never heard their music like this before. What do you guys think the next who album i should get?

You should get My Generation. It was their first album and has some great songs on it. :thumb:

Oh yeah, and probably Tommy too. That has some astounding songs on it.

[Distant Echoes]

I always think it's funny when the dumb drunk yells "FREEBIRD!!!".

I was at my friends brothers gig once in a relatively empty bar and some guy (i think one of their not-so-close friends) kept yelling "PLAY FREEBIRD!" and they eventually just said "Ya know what dude!? First of all, were never gonna play freebird. Second of all, Well never consider even listening to freebird, and third of all, We dont even like like freebird, so shut the hell up!"

It was hilorious. I vowed to myself to learn the guitar solo by the end of next year so just incase somebody ever does yell that...me and my band will play and just shut em up.

We got a neighborhood band in our development that play freebird for us everytime they play, but they totally innovate the solo. ITs about 15 minutes of loud guitar soloing, running around in the crowd...buncha drunks.

[jpj]

Well, I've been getting into Pink Floyd a lot more. I've always been a big fan just now more than ever. Also I'm starting to get into a lot of jam bands like, String Chees Incident, moe., Keller Williams, and many more.

well it was one of their more popular ones

[Distant Echoes]

I dont like listening to it because it kills the song and the solo. i personally think its one of the best songs made, but i listen to it the least. Thats like listening to eruption 10 times a day, every day because its the 'greatest guitar solo ever'...but any song can get old, except DSOTM for me.

[jpj]

Yea, I'm not a big fan of Freebird.

Freebird is to Skynyrd as Stairway is to Zeppelin.

[clown_phobia]

Yea, I'm not a big fan of Freebird.

[Distant Echoes]

I think every great band has that 1 HUGE song

Zep-Stairway
Skynyrd-Freebird
Aerosmith-Dream On
Jimi Hendrix-Purple Haze
Chili Peppers-Under the bridge
Floyd-Comfotably numb

and so on...i wont continue becaue itll probably cause alot of contraversy, but you get the picture

[clown_phobia]

I think every great band has that 1 HUGE song

Jimi Hendrix-Purple Haze
Floyd-Comfotably numb


Both those artists had many good songs.

All 3 of Hendrix's Experience albums were amazing and groundbreaking and still brilliant today. Pink Floyd have released some of the best albums of all time with amazing songs.

[Distant Echoes]

But heres a question on that one great song by bands...

Is it the band that makes the song good enough to define them...

Or does the song good enough to define the band?

What do you think?

[RNR]

All of those artists had lots of huge songs actually.

Jimi Hendrix's biggest song was All Along The Watchtower by the way ;).

[clown_phobia]

But heres a question on that one great song by bands...

Or does the song good enough to define the band?

What do you think?

It depends on the band. If it is a great classic band (like most classic rock bands) then it is likely that they make the song good enough to define them.

But, with lesser bands and their 1 hit wonders, then I believe the second statement, that the song defines the band.

[RNR]

well it was one of their more popular ones

I knows.

But it really is a crappy song, why people like it I have no clue. Give me "Sweet Home Alabama", "Swamp Music", "Gimme 3 Steps" and "Truck Drivin' Man" over Freebird.

People who request it suck.

[Badmoon]

Okay...

What if they just request it to hear it for the first time? I've done that with numerous songs.

[RNR]

Then they should go download it. Radio stations and people playing concerts don't need their ****.

What you do is fine though. Just not if it's a band's most popular song such as Freebird.

im 12 and all i listen 2 is ac/dc van halen u know stuff like that

[Illmatic]

Don't patronize me, asshole.

EDIT: To the guy who's telling me to "keep an open mind", which is basically saying "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all", which is inherently stupid. If I don't like something, I'm going to say it. I'm not trying to "change" anybody, and anybody who thinks I am is stupid, I'm afraid to say.

[Badmoon]

Are you gonna do them?

Most likely...in time.

You can have Dose and the others. Unless you really want Deep End vol. 1, then you can have it.

Haven't heard 'em.

Is there a website where I can listen to them?

[igottabroknfac138]

ive always liked classic rock but it really became a part of my life one day when i was hangin out with my friend at like 4:00-6:00 in the morning and saw a infomercial for a cd called the legends of rock and it was hosted by roger daltery(the who; if you didnt know that thats sad)and it was a 9 disc set with classic rock songs.

Yeah, any song gets old. I've killed like a dozen of my favorite songs because I've heard them too much.

Freebird is awesome, btw.

EDIT: Oh wow, I forgot to go to the last page....my bad.

[lunch998]

Yea I saw a commercial for that, it actually looked interesting. I don't think Daltrey would do it if it wasn't any good.

[RockAndRoll]

I would hope not.

[lunch998]

Daltrey still needs to have his dignity.

[appreciate_it]

you think you would have a bit of dignity if you were in Rock and roll hall of fame?
I would... And you'd think he wouldn't need the money with all the royalties they still get. And i'd say they would still be getting a few because they are such an awesome band... They'll be getting Heaps for the CSI's anyway...

Thanks.


edit: Yeah, I own it. One of my favorite movies. The soundtrack to both Waynes World I and II is awesome.

S&G is awesome.

[guitrguy]

Its a only a single, but it is on 1.

[Johnny B. Good]

Hey Jude isn't on the White Album

[blue3]

It's on that 1967-1970 CD and 1.

Did you know Phish did a cover of that song Tubthumping? Where they go "pissing the night away". The band that did it was called Chumbawumba or something.

Well it's really funny because you can hear them laughing at some spots.

Yump. Chumbawumba did the original. God did I listen to awfully ****ty music back in the day.

[IAJP]

"I get knocked down, but I get up again, there's nothin' gonna keep me down"

Yea, but Phish makes it good.

Brilliant song!

Well, during the car scene Mrs. Robinson is playing, but it is a cover by The Lemon Heads.

[Woodstock]

Hey Jude was a single record, it was released along with the heavy version of Revolution.

CSNY's cover of Blackbird is meh, nothing more.

I was surprised my Dad had that Chumbawumba CD.

[Badmoon]

Mr. Rock not Roll, how were the samples. Explain your liking or hating for each.

*Dr. Rock not Roll

[Woodstock]

The first CD I ever ownded was Matchbox 20-Mad Season. It really wasn't that bad, but I didn't know better. It probably sounds like crap today.

[magicbus]

I had that Matchbox-20 cd and the chumbawumba one. I didn't really like either, I just knew they had singles on the radio.

[KARMAPOL1CE]

I didn't either, I stumbled across it by accident, it's amazing though.

Ohh well you're cool.

I was the coolest cat back then.

Mr. Rock not Roll, how were the samples. Explain your liking or hating for each.

*Dr. Rock not Roll

The song by The Polyphonic Spree was awesome. Very atmosphearic (sp) and I really liked the many changes in temp. The singing and tone of the guitar was godo and overall it was just a great listen.

Widespread Panic was awesome as usual ;)

[Broken Arrow]

Bob Dylan does a version of that, and Who killed Davie Moore is about a boxer (protest) and the hurricane, both Dylan.

Maybe not a classic rock song then maybe a random song which has a chorus about loving Brett Favre or something.

[thickasabrick]

i'm all out of ideas. just search around.

i'd rather not. i'm not very good at writing lyrics that fit with a song, so it may never have any. i'm good at writing poetry, but the second i try to write lyrics to a song it ruins it.

Can't you just use your poetry as lyrics?

[guitrguy]

Hurricane, that's about Boxing.
Its about a black boxer who was falsely accused of murder mainly based on his race.

[lunch998]

Hurricane is a great song.

[Badmoon]

Doing a review. You'll all want samples of these guys.

[EightMilesHigh]

Hurricane is specifically about the boxer Rubin Carter. There was also a movie called "Hurricane" starring Denzel Washington. For further reference: http://imdb.com/title/tt0174856/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnxteD0yMHxzZz0xfGxtPTIwMHx0dD1vbnxwbj 0wfHE9aHVycmljYW5lfGh0bWw9MXxubT1vbg__;fc=1;ft=76; fm=1


Also, right before I got banned, me and Creedence Clearwater were having a really good Bob Dylan trivia contest.

The Band - Rock of Ages is a really great album, and since everyone loves the Band, everyone should get it.

[RNR]

Calm down, it's always time for Metallica!

The riff from Is There Anybody Out There by Pink Floyd sounds like Call Of Ktulu by Metallica. And Goodbye Blue Sky has a similar sounding riff to Fade To Black By Metallica. Those two Floyd songs were from the same album and the two Metallica sounds were from the same album.

You guys put two and two together ;)

No, but it was a list that I put away awhile ago, and then randomly found on my kitchen table. I put it together to make the assumption that someone bought some of them for me. I could be wrong though.

In about two hours on PBS, there's going to be highlights of the Crossroads Guitar Festival, hosted none other than Eric Clapton, who was mentioned on the first page of this thread. Should rockz0rz all our collective sockz0rz.
