Classic Rock

[thickasabrick]

George Harrison, Jerry Garcia, Bob Marley, etc

All Christians? I'm just about 105% sure Bob Marley was Rastafarian, what were Garcia and Harrison all about. I think Harrison was pretty Christian wasn't he. I have no clue about Jerry Garcia though.

edit- like Rock said, most Canadians aren't really religious (although i know a few who are very religious). What's your religion all about Disconnection Notice? I'm actually embaressed to say I haven't a clue.

When you're agnostic or deist, you believe in God, but you don't agree with the teachings of major religions.

never eard of that :confused:

[RNR]

Guys, badmoon and I have an idea. We think that this htread should be changed to the classic rock/jam rock thread. We talk about jam enough here and it would be nice to keep it all on topic. Plus it is "rock" music. Classic rock and jam have ties, the dead and the allmans are a bit of both.

What's everyone's opinion?

[Illmatic]

Seriously?

EDIT: To led_zep_luvr. As for the issue rock not roll brought up, I can't see why not, even if I don't like jam bands.

[RNR]

Indeed, it's not like the conversation would change.

[Badmoon]

B. Marley - Chrisian/Rastafarian
J. Garcia - Christian
G. Harrison - Christian

Jerry actually strongly disliked John Lennon as a person because he interfiered with his belief. When Garcia was going to meet Lennon for the first time at the backstage of a Dead concert, Lennon approached him and kept calling Jerry "J.C.". Lennon also asked Bill Graham (Fillmore owner/Grateful Dead friend) to find him a large amp and guitar so he could walk on stage and play over Garcia's.

When you're agnostic or deist, you believe in God, but you don't agree with the teachings of major religions.

Hey that's sorta what I am I suppose, and I didn't even realize it. I like to believe there is a higher power of some sort, like a God, or guardian angels, or spirits (like Native Americans belive)...but I find it hard to believe all the stuff religions try to tell us.

Do you guys know of any Christian (or any other religion) classic rock bands? I remember I've heard one song from a Christian rock band on my local Classic Rock radio station, it wasn't a bad song, although it was a little cheesy (kinda 80's). I don't remember the name or the band though.

[RNR]

Guys, enough of the religon talk. We need to focus on the issue at hand.

[Badmoon]

We all say yes, plus we are still on topic. We are talking about Classic Rock artists that are religious.

[Illmatic]

I don't like having a middleman around who takes my money, bullies me around, and tells me how to worship God (which, let's not kid ourselves, is all Christianity, and probably Islam and Judiasm, does). I think people should be free to worship God (or whatever higher power they believe in) any way they choose.

I personally can't think of any Christian classic rock bands offhand...I don't think any classic rock bands were religious because they wanted to be the exact opposite of the generation before them (who were for the most part deeply religious). Just a crackpot theory I came up with.

[thickasabrick]

Is someone complaining about our talk of jam bands? I haven't notice anyone telling us to keep on track in this thread. But if it's not a hassle for the mods to change the name of the thread, then why not..it's not gonna hurt anything. I think it's a decent idea, as long as Bonzo doesn't mind us changing his wonderful thread, as it is the only thing newer members know him by anyway.

We might as well just call it the "Classic Rock and Jam Band Community Thread". That way there's just about no way we can get off topic ;) (not totally serious of course)

[RNR]

We all say yes, plus we are still on topic. We are talking about Classic Rock artists that are religious.

Oh fine. I;'m sure the other regulars would say yes.

Did Bob Dylan become a jew, your christian and then become a jew again? I'm confuzzeled.

[Illmatic]

Bob Dylan grew up Jewish, lost his faith somewhere along the line, and then became a born-again Christian, from what I can gather.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

if u really want to expirence classic rock listen to a variety of old bands but listen to alot of led zeppelin best rock band ever

[RNR]

Yeah. Bonzo was kind of a rock n roll/ hard rock guy. But he did like jam too.

[thickasabrick]

when he was pissed off about being famous, he tried to make people hate him, so he went to another country (i'm sure someone here knows the name of the country) and got a picture of himself in a skullcap (is that the correct term?). It didn't really work out the way he wanted it to though, just got him more publicity.

[RNR]

Yup, we all listen to a good deal of zeppelin. 'cept badmoon.

[Illmatic]

Shut up.

[thickasabrick]

if u really want to expirence classic rock listen to a variety of old bands but listen to alot of led zeppelin best rock band ever
hahaha, is this some sort of joke? i suppose if he spelled led zeppelin right, then he's serious. to poster: have you seen how many posts are in this thread? obviously we all already deep into the world of classic rock and we have developed our own favourite bands, we don't need your advice on how to "experience classic rock". sorry if that sounded too mean. I'm assuming you are new...welcome to the Classic Rock thread.

and i believe Disconnection Notice is right about the Bob Dylan thing.

[Illmatic]

I prefer my two word answer the most for dealing with noobs. I sincerely think they do this to piss me off.

[Johnny B. Good]

Hey That sounds a lot like what Ian Anderson talks about in the songs in Aqualung

[Johnny B. Good]

I prefer my two word answer the most for dealing with noobs. I sincerely think they do this to piss me off.
Angus goes around in the threads saying dumb $hit all the time. He thinks he's some sort of genius when he's really just a dumb@ss

[thickasabrick]

i could have thought of a better two words to use, although one always gets censored for some reason. i try to take the nicer, more understanding approach to n00bs, since it wasn't too long ago i was one. luckily everyone in this thread was nice to me when i first arrived.

hey Angus Young13, what type of Classic rock do you prefer? The more bluesy stuff like Clapton, folky stuff like Neil Young, Jam stuff like the Allmans etc etc? or are you just plain hard rock (guessing from you're ac/dc type name)?

[Illmatic]

I'm 103% sure that ANGUS YOUNG13 likes only "noob classic rock" like Zeppelin, AC/DC, and Pink Floyd (and that's it).

[thickasabrick]

Hey That sounds a lot like what Ian Anderson talks about in the songs in Aqualung

ha, i suppose it did. I never thought of that. I think My God is my favourite song just because of his thoughts and concepts of organized religion. Very well thought out.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

well i like all sorts of classic rock, tom petty, boston, kansas, and some classic metal, motley crue, acdc, black sabbath. DIO but not alot of people like thier work and also like r&b like led zepplin sorry for typing it wrong i was in a hurry but thanx for being understanding some people are just mean

[RNR]

thumbs up for Tom Petty. He's not n00b classic rock.

[thickasabrick]

a boston fan eh. I'm a fan as well. Their debut album is definitely their best (best selling debut album of all time, before NSYNC came along). My favourite song is definitely Peace of Mind. I find their vocals are almost Beach Boyish the way they fit in three part harmonies, not to mention the harmonized guitar solos. What can I say, I'm a sucker for harmony (Simon and Garfunkel anyone?)

edit- it only took a couple Kansas songs to win me over, although I've only heard a few of their hit songs, nothing more than that. Carry On My Wayward Son is almost a masterpiece (using the term loosely)

[Johnny B. Good]

maybe you're the long lost son of Ian Anderson :D

[Bartender]

When you're agnostic or deist, you believe in God, but you don't agree with the teachings of major religions.

Not quite. If you're agnostic, you maintain that we can't know whether or not there is a god.

Anyway, do you guys actually want the title of the thread changed, or are you just going to start discussing jam rock without bothering with the change?

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

peace of mind is one of my favorite boston songs too very good guitar work great lyrics and as u said very harmonized Kansas has alot of that as well

but one of my all time favorite classic rock bands is BAD CO. juke box hero is a very good song

[acdcrockr]

I'm 103% sure that ANGUS YOUNG13 likes only "noob classic rock" like Zeppelin, AC/DC, and Pink Floyd (and that's it).
what crap do u listen to

Peace of Mind is their best song. As for Kansas,
carry on is an awesome song but Dust In the Wind rox :thumb:

[Badmoon]

juke box hero is a very good song

I believe that's Foreigner :)

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

yeh but there are more kansas songs than just the ones u hear on the radio but those songs are very good

[thickasabrick]

I don't think it's really necessary to change the thread title, since we are all already regulars here...but including the title Jam Band may attract some new good posters.

I think it's really up to the guys who have been posting here since the start, like Rock and Badmoon. Bonzo too if you find it necessary. I don't think I should have any real power in decision making around here. Especially for something as sacred as the Classic Rock thread. :p

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

o yeh my mistake forienger and they sing double vision as well

[RNR]

what crap do u listen to

Calm down. Disconnection Notice likes those bands (I think). It's just that people who only listen to the main bands suck.

[BillCosby]

Who wants to be the one to push me over 1000 rep?

[thickasabrick]

can we set aside like two seconds to actually decide on this thread title changing idea? stop arguing about what defines a n00b and what doesn't. acdcrockr, please leave the thread for about ten minutes, the adults need to talk.

edit- Juke Box Hero is a great song. I love when he sings "that one guitar!" that song can basically speak to any amatuer musician. and Badmoon, you're newest avatar rocks.

[RNR]

Who wants to be the one to push me over 1000 rep?

Done, i'm surprised you don't jave 1000 already.

[Johnny B. Good]

I believe that's Foreigner :)
Foreignor is a very awesome band that never hear about. What's up with that? :confused:

[BillCosby]

Yay!

[RNR]

can we set aside like two seconds to actually decide on this thread title changing idea? stop arguing about what defnies a n00b and what doesn't. acdcrockr, please leave the thread for about ten minutes, the adults need to talk.

*Most people here like jam rock.
**Badmoon brings it up enough that the conversation in the thread wouldn't really change much.
***Jam rock has ties with classic rock. The dead and the allmans are a bit of both.

Yup yup.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

yeh foreignor is very talented but not as popular i have no idea why but there are alot of very talented bands that arent very respected

[BillCosby]

thanks for the rep for saying thanks for the song


EDIT: Entering paradox territory!

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

does anybody hear listen to KLOS 95.5?

[BillCosby]

does anybody hear listen to KLOS 95.5?


Yes. But I think that's a Southern California only thing

[RNR]

Anyways, you guys duke it out over the issue and make a decision. I have an exam tomorrow and need sleep.

[BillCosby]

I don't think the name change is really neccessary. I mean most people would consider most Jam bands under the Classic Rock category anyway.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

what happend to geno michilini he was cool but maybe he quit does anybody know

[BillCosby]

what happend to geno michilini he was cool but maybe he quit does anybody know


I dunno, I really only listen to Mark & Brian now. I don't really listen to the radio besides in the morning.

[ANGUS YOUNG13]

yeh me too mark and brian are hilarious i like how they do the list of every thing movies,songs,shows great stuff

[the.walrus.was.paul]

yea man, classic rock kicks ***. i began with led zeppelin, then beatles, hendrix, clapton, and whole lotta other bands.

[Yppolitia]

I started with Metallica, if u class them, as classic, the beatles, hendrix, led zepplin, the who and so on

[ArcLite]

Who likes Styx and REO? Two of my guilty pleasure bands but I can't help it, my dad got me into them. I have to say Styx is probably the best drunk sing-along band there is.

[possessednomad]

I listen to led zep, Van Halen, and then a load of later bands that spawned - GN'R, etc. Bon Jovi are great, too, and also Lynyrd Skynyrd.

[possessednomad]

Oh,and also clapton, and also all of the great bluesers, like B.B. I like mostly bands that i wasn't even alive when they were around - I'm not all that old and guitar music of any greatly skilled calibre as well as blues has really taken a downer since oasis faded from making great new albums. I love the are of the great guitar solo - Maiden and the pretenders and especially Jeff Healet -men who really seemed to share my passion years before i was born, in most of my musical tastes cases.

[Yppolitia]

Ohh yeh, van halen too, Eddie was an inspiration for me to play the guitar :thumb:

[Schyma]

I feel this thread is getting drowned out with n00bs.

As for the thread naming desision leave it.

[thickasabrick]

I listen to led zep, Van Halen, and then a load of later bands that spawned - GN'R, etc. Bon Jovi are great, too, and also Lynyrd Skynyrd.

actually, Lynyrd Skynyrd came before Van Halen.

I don't think the thread title will make a difference...since this thread is big enough most people understand what goes on in it. But if a mod really wants to, he can change it. It will entitle us to more nonspam conversation technically, so it's not a bad thing.

I say we just CHANGE IT so we can move on with our lives.

there are a lot of newer posters in this thread lately.

[Badmoon]

*Most people here like jam rock.
**Badmoon brings it up enough that the conversation in the thread wouldn't really change much.

Yup yup.

****We'd get a bunch of other cool Jam Band Thread (Other music) regulars coming here.

I just came home from school :D.

hey badmoon i haven't spent much time in the jam band thread, only a couple posts i think. if we changed our thread to include jam bands, would the Jam Band thread in Other Music cease to exist? or would it be a clash of Jam Band threads?

i dont mind the idea of changing the title, but if the Jam Band thread in Other Music gets closed or something, i will feel bad.

edit- ok so apparently i have never posted in the Jam Band thread, but all the same...i read through it quite often.

[Badmoon]

They're different forums. Plus, that thread never stays alive. You don't see people complaing that there is a forced listening thread in every board, do you?

[Badmoon]

I just posted a review on...

Jerry Garcia Band - Cats Under the Stars

Check it out, though I am not proud of the review :(

[magicbus]

If changing the thread title will bring more "smart" people in here (as opposed to n00bs) lets do it.

I'm glad to see the love for The Last Waltz being passed on. (In response to Creedance)

Bill Cosby, good to see you have stars, I haven't been able to rep you in a while cause I need to spread it around.

Badmoon, which album is your avatar from? think we have that one.

OH! And I love Richard Manuel's voice. Its amazing. He's slowly surpassing Robertson as coolest cat in The Band, but I think I'll leave them tied.

[Badmoon]

Grateful Dead - Blues for Allah

I've been trying to put in sections of different Grateful Dead albums every so often. I have also been adding a lyrical quote on my usetitle from the album my avatar shows.

+Rep for anyone who can guess what song that quote is from (It's easy).

[magicbus]

Yea my dad has that one. :cool: Is it any good? And how about Skeletons In the Closet?

[Badmoon]

Blues For Allah is fantastic. Very diverse also. And Skeletons in the Closet is just a bad compilation, though it was the first Dead album I owned.


Jazz is Dead - Eyes of The World/Two Sisters

http://s4.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=121HDOBL820EQ1TFR89ERJO37F


Jazz is Dead - Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodleoo

http://s13.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1VUXB714I31DV3I196AHUYE1R1

[jpj]

OH! And I love Richard Manuel's voice. Its amazing. He's slowly surpassing Robertson as coolest cat in The Band, but I think I'll leave them tied.
He's already cooler than Robertson in my eyes, and Shape I'm In is my favorite song on The Last Waltz.

[magicbus]

Bummer. I'll still check out the Blues one though.

I really love The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down on the Last Waltz. On the cd Levon kinda sings funny, but its still good. Plus there's an orchestra on the movie. One of my favorite Manuel songs would have to be Whispering Pines.

[Broken Arrow]

We should change the name because n00bs haven't heard of Jam Bands and would hofefully be repelled.

I watched this thing called Live FAst Die Young on Much More Music, it wasn't that good but theyn had some footage of classic rock artists.:)

I used to be Catholic but I kind of quit my religion and only go to church on Christmas and sometomes Easter.

[Broken Arrow]

The first song is good, Badmoon:) I haven't listened to the second yet.

[Badmoon]

Keep in mind they are Grateful Dead originals.

[Broken Arrow]

Yeah I know Eyes of the World is on my best of album, it's awesome. I always find myself singing/humming it.

[The professor]

another great classic rock band is Queen

[magicbus]

I like it. The Last Waltz is. Or Crossroads. Or Live At Pompeii.

[Badmoon]

You like? I'm still iffy about it.

So what's everyone's favorite music DVD?

Rising Low
Bonnaroo 2003
The Grateful Dead Movie

[jpj]

I'm not sure if I like The Last Waltz or The Zep DVD better. I really wanna see Rising Low and Festival Express.

[Broken Arrow]

I like.:) The Last Waltz, Zeppelin DVD.

[RNR]

Hmmm good point but do you think we may have mention them in our 820+ pages and over 20 000 posts?

Don't be so harsh. With a thread this big it's expected that we cover the same topics once or twice.

[RNR]

Favorite DVD is Rodger Waters - The Wall live in berlin, The Zep movie (of course), The Last Waltz and Jimi Plys Berkley. My DVDs :)

[slowhand]

The Zeppelin DVD and the Rolling Stones Rock 'n Roll Circus for me.

[PinkFreud]

jeff buckley live in chicago
the who - the kids are alright
woodstock
crossroads guitar festival (though i wish it would have had cause weve ended as lovers on it. the one with beck and clapton. pure euphoria)
the who live at the royal albert hall is good as well.

[guitrguy]

What album is Achilles Last Stand on?

[Jim Spoon]

Bah.That wasn't harsh.

Not gonna lie, I did't really like The Last Waltz.

[jpj]

Not gonna lie, I did't really like The Last Waltz.
:eek:

Just out of curiosity, why not?

[Against Miik!]

I don't like The Band and the guest appearences don't save it for me.

That reminds me some guy on Amazon said he didn't like it because there wasn't enough Neil Diamond.....wtf :confused:

[Against Miik!]

That reminds me some guy on Amazon said he didn't like it because there wasn't enough Neil Diamond.....wtf :confused:

Thats like that SNL skit with Blue Oyster Cult. All they needed was more cowbell, and all the Last Waltz needed was more Niel Diamond. I actually do like one Niel Diamond song though.

[Woodstock]

/Hasn't seen the Last Waltz, doesn't pertain to conversation. Post count +

[jpj]

Thats like that SNL skit with Blue Oyster Cult. All they needed was more cowbell, and all the Last Waltz needed was more Niel Diamond. I actually do like one Niel Diamond song though.
:lol: I think that's one of their best skits.

The Diamond song they played was pretty good, but it's the only song of his I've ever heard.

[Badmoon]

I don't like The Band and the guest appearences don't save it for me.

Dr. John's appearance was the best.

[jpj]

Dr. John's voice was kinda annoying I thought. I think I liked Neil's (Young) the best.

[Woodstock]

Who's anxious for my ordered CD's to arrive? Remember, when I get music, you get music.

[magicbus]

The Neil Diamond one isn't my favorite. I like the Clapton, Neil Young, and The Band's individual performances the best.

[RockAndRoll]

Speaking of DVD's I must say being one of the musician's on the festival express would be one of the best things ever. It's dumb people protest for it to be free though.

[jpj]

People protest that Festival Express should be free? Wtf? But yea it would've been awesome to be there, whether you were a musician or a spectator. I think I read that Robbie Robrtson took so much LSD that Janis Joplin was worried about him.....now that had to have been a lot of drugs.

[Badmoon]

Robertson...drug n00b. And it doesn't take much to have a freak out off of LSD, especially when your on a train with a bunch of people partying. :p

[magicbus]

I think I read that Robbie Robrtson took so much LSD that Janis Joplin was worried about him.....now that had to have been a lot of drugs.
That's my man. :cool:

[RNR]

Everyone at any sort of music festival has to be on drugs. That's the law.

[Johnny B. Good]

Everyone at any sort of music festival has to be on drugs. That's the law.
yeah. Take Woodstock for example, everyone was gone on LSD because everything right down to the icecubes was spiked with LSD. I wonder what 12 hour hallucinations would be like?

[Badmoon]

You'd fall asleep eventually.

[edtrax]

How could a sincere lover of hard rock/metal not love some classic rock....I,m a die hard thrash metal lover but my roots are etched in my soul through early Deep Purple , Grand Funk , Foghat , Nazareth , Derringer , Mahogany Rush , Johnny Winter. Kids Today would find themselves in amazement in encountering some of these vintage recordings...Early 70,s releases by Ted Nugent and REO Speedwagon paved the way for alot of today's heavy music...And will never be dated.

[magicbus]

You're no fun. :upset:

Ya, they thought it should be free. Musician would be better than spectator though, you get to tour the country on a train jamming with other musicians the whole time and such.

Sometimes people are just picky about pointless things with music, such as the date it came out. It's a shame.

Let's talk Kinks. Any fans? They had the hits Lola, You Really Got Me, and All Day And All of the Night.

I Wish I could Fly Like Superman is really good too..
Why did they get banned from the U.S. for 4 years?

[Woodstock]

I Wish I could Fly Like Superman is really good too..
Why did they get banned from the U.S. for 4 years?
Why? I'd like to hear this. I don't know much history of the band.

[Johnny B. Good]

I dunno why, that's why I asked you. All I know is that it happened right after All Day and You Really Got Me became big songs

[Woodstock]

Probably some sexually provocative stage antic. Some would call them the first "punk" band.

[Johnny B. Good]

I'd say first hard rock band

[Badmoon]

Post in my Panic thread :angry:

[Woodstock]

You Really Got Me sounds like a modern day punk song. And the whole album Lola vs. Powerman was revolved around them hating the evil music industry.

[Johnny B. Good]

Aside form the great guitar solo You Got Me would be a punk song. And I don't blame them for hating the music industry, it screws over quite a few people.

im 14 and i think the only true rock n roll is from the 80's and earlier. only a few bands that formed in the 990's are good.

[bonhams_alive]

you should check out ten years after they are amazing. also beck bogart and appice

The solo in You Really Got Me was done by Jimmy Page.

The solo in You Really Got Me was done by an old Bluesman, but Jimmy Page took credit for it.

I've heard Dave Davies play it live so at least I know he's skilled enough to play the solo

No, I'm just playing on words. Done can also equal played.

[Badmoon]

No, I'm just playing on words. Done can also equal played.

Indeed ;)

[edtrax]

I have a history of rock book that has The Kinks listed as the first heavy metal band...I,m still unsure of how to respond to that.

[Badmoon]

They're not the first. They may have came up with the first Metal riff (more Hard Rock), but they were a Pop Rock band, overall that is.

[Woodstock]

It's all opinion as to what they created or what they were the first to do.

[Johnny B. Good]

All that matters is they rock

[Illmatic]

Plus, I doubt many metal bands cite the Kinks as an influence.

[Badmoon]

:lol: Yea

[Against Miik!]

Have you ever heard those songs? You must've.

And where back. Yeah i've heard those songs, but I don't think they are that great.

[thickasabrick]

I don't understand why so many people call Jimmy Page a thief. Bob Dylan said in his book that a lot of his earlier songs were just covers of very obscure folk songs. he also said most of the songs he wrote on his earlier albums had melodies and chord progressions directly taken from folk songs. The only reason he didn't get caught is because a lot of the folk artists didn't have record contracts or anything, and they could rarely prove that they wrote a song. Bob Dylan managed to become known as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, and poor Jimmy Page is always referred to as a thief.

and Eric Clapton once wrote that most of his blues solos were mainly composed of licks taken from many different blues songs, and converted into the same key so he could use it for his songs. yet people still call him one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

i'm not trying to argue or anything, i just want people to know that Jimmy Page isn't the only artist alive to borrow songs/riffs/lyrics.

[Riva]

But Jimmy Page has a fanboy army behind him, and you know how elitists hate fanboys. :)

[Sgt._Joker]

classic rock= rock and roll, non of these punk rock or grunge rock bands match up to the greats all they are , r over played power chords :@

[.:HIM:.]

all though i think Nirvana came close because they were pretty big

[ArcLite]

all though i think Nirvana came close because they were pretty big

Wow. Listen son, Nirvana was nothing special, and to compare them to classic rock greats, or even say they came close is blasphemy.

[Broken Arrow]

But Jimmy Page has a fanboy army behind him, and you know how elitists hate fanboys. :)
Yeah most people probably bring the theif thing up again and again is to break the fanboys hearts and make them cry.

I don't think he was a theif.

[The Sound of Led Smashing]

I don't think J P was a thief either - he just took influences and adapted them to his music. He was a pretty darn awesome compositionalist.

I think Neil Young is the father of classic rock, actually. Or the grand-daddy.

[Woodstock]

I would call him one of the fathers of new age rock. Down By The River sounds like it was made in the 90's.

[thickasabrick]

i've heard neil young referred to as the Godfather of Grunge before..at first i didn't really understand it, but i suppoes it makes sense. what do you guys think?

[Woodstock]

Well, like I said. Some of his songs sound like they're only ten years old.

He did have some grungy songs though, you're right about that.

[thickasabrick]

plus he dressed like a lumberjack...plaid (is that how you spell it?) seemed to be the clothing of choice for most grunge rockers.

so who did all the regulars vote for? i went with Californication. Led Zep 4 was going through anway, and Pet Sounds and the Yes album were losing badly, so i figured at least one good rock album should go through.

[ATM]

I posted this in the main R&M section, but nobody paid any attention too it. So anyways have any of you heard of this guy.

http://www.nicksterling.com

Watch him play the Sweet Child of Mine solo or Eruption

I'm not quite sure how to spell it either, but I know what you mean.

I voted for Pet Sounds, best album on the list.

[thickasabrick]

it's weird, i was listening to Pet Sounds as I was voting, I kinda felt bad. I'm glad some people voted for Pet Sounds, because a lot of the more hard rock and metal bands put them down constantly, and that album is amazing. Brian Wilson is one of my favourite songwriters.

Well, chord progressions and melodies are commonly not original. A lot of bands come up with some and don't even no that they've been used. As for chord progressions, songs usually consist of basic chords like G, D, C, A and F. It isn't bad that two artists just so happen to have G, D and C inside of their song.

But stealing a riff or phrase is a big thing. Jimmy Page did that, plus he was aware he was stealing. He took advantage of old Bluesmen who were ignorant to current copyright laws.

[RNR]

i've heard neil young referred to as the Godfather of Grunge before..at first i didn't really understand it, but i suppoes it makes sense. what do you guys think?

The album, Ragged Glory will explain why he is indeed the godfather of grunge.

I got so pissed off when i saw that one simpsons episode when they go to England and they're riding in a hot air balloon and Homer says "there's Jimmy Page, the biggest thief of black american music in history." I can't stand when the writers express their own opinions through the characters.

Are the riffs you are reffering to exactly the same? Or just similar?

[Badmoon]

It really shouldn't matter, but to my knowledge they are slightly different.

I could play you "Sugar Magnolia" two different ways, but play the incorrect version on an album, is what I did wrong?

Keep in mind, Jimmy Page wasn't exactly wrong for playing an unoriginal riff. What he did was wrong because he knew that it was unoriginal, but he did it anyway.

An artist using their medium to express their opinion?

Oh heavens no!

Quick! Round up Bob Dylan and put him on trial!

[clown_phobia]

If you think about it, Elvis was really the one that made black music accesible for white people. He's more of a theif than Jimmy Page.

[Jim Spoon]

But Elvis had hip swinging action!

White people have been stealing things from black people forever. As Paul Mooney said, "If white people want something badly enough, they'll take it"

Yeah white people have taken rap and jazz as well.

[ledpoisoning27]

classic rock= rock and roll, non of these punk rock or grunge rock bands match up to the greats all they are , r over played power chords :@
now thats not complety true, you cant judge bands just by the type of music they play, that is not what classic rock is about, i like many different types of music outside and around the area of classic rock. for example, there are a few punk bands that i like, such as the clash, the talkingheads, and the velvet underground (though they are also considered by many as classic rock)

Also if people didn't steal things from others we wouldn't have a lot of great things we do today, but the point is that usually in music when some 'steals' something from another musican, they will most likey make it better, well at least in classic rock bands.

[RockAndRoll]

Taking a melody is the same as taking a riff, taking a chord progression is different though. And you seemed to have conveniently forgotten to defend the part about Dylan doing covers and ripping off unfortunate folksmen. ;)

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Wasn't Dazed and Confused a Yardbirds song originally??

And doesn't Jimmy Page own the rights to the Yardbirds music or no?

[jpj]

I believe it is, and he may own the rights to Yardbirds music from the when he was with him, but I'm really not sure.

[magicbus]

Wasn't Dazed and Confused a Yardbirds song originally??

Yea but think about all the blues songs they did. I Can't Quit You Baby, You Shook Me, and The Lemon Song all have riffs and lyrics from old blues songs. I think Babe I'm Gonna Leave You does too. (Most of their songs have old blues lyrics, which is the obvious part.) Personally, I don't think Page intended on stealing the riffs and marketing them as his own, but rather redoing them in his own songs and paying homage to his blues idols. I used to think he was arrogant and he did steal all that stuff, but he's a nice guy (or at least appears so in interviews and movie clips and stuff) and stealing riffs doesn't seem like something he'd do.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Because I remember that he had to buy the rights to the Yardbirds to use the name "The New Yardbirds" in Zeppelins early touring days.

Great list :thumb:. Not a bad band on there (according to me anyways).

[Johnny B. Good]

only band I don't care for is AC/DC
But otherwise awesome list :cool:

[Alessandro]

White people have been stealing things from black people forever. As Paul Mooney said, "If white people want something badly enough, they'll take it"

True. Most of the great musicians that ever existed in this planet were black. In jazz we have Wes Montgomery and Miles Davis, if we take a look at the blues, we have B.B King and John Lee Hooker, in rock music Mr. Hendrix. ****, maybe that´s why I suck on guitar, :lol: , just kidding.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

They had an interesting Pink Floyd reference a few days ago on the Simpsons. The Homerpalooza episode. I forgot who it was but he was trying to make a giant pig shoot out, and homer accidentally sets it off and the pig flies off and the guy exclaims "I got that from a Pink Floyd yardsale!"

[Johnny B. Good]

You forgot about Charlie Parker in your Jazz part. Amazing musician, he played his sax so fast that some people thought he was screwing up, but later when the ability to slow down music happened, people listened to his music slowed down and found he was actually playing perfect notes, just really fast. Also the first time he heard something he'd be able to immediately repeat it

[Lucky0889]

Oh and Yeah, Genesis is worth checking out, really good soothng band

Man, if we were to name all the great black jazz musicians that ever existed, it would take more than 820 pages to name them all :lol: ! And yeah, you´re right, Charlie Parker is a HUGE name in Jazz.

sorry to interrupt, but I have a quick question. Is the Queen with Paul Rodgers tour just in the UK or does it come the the US? *sorry if this has already been discussed*

I left my cds at school.

There have been rumors that there won't be a U.S. tour, but nothing has been confirmed yet.


And I don't think the Yardbirds are on the site.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

All of them?

Yeah, my whole case is in my locker.

[MalcolmYoungRock]

how many rep points do you need for a star?

[Johnny B. Good]

you need a 1000 rep for 3 stars(the min) and if I understood correct you also have to pay

[magicbus]

MYR has been repped. You already have the join date and post count covered, so now you just need 1000 rep. I think I gave you about 31.

EDIT: There's no pay involved. I don't think..

Do you guys listen to Robin Trower? (attempt at conversation started)

[MalcolmYoungRock]

I see... and do they accept pesos??

[Freddie9]

now I want stars

[magicbus]

That probably won't happen. We need to get back on topic, this isn't the "rep" thread.

What do you guys think of Yes? We haven't discussed them in a while. I think they're a great prog rock band, and the members are all very talented.

Any thoughts? How bout favorite cds?

[RNR]

Great band. Very talented and very creative. I have Fragile and The Yes Album and both of those are great.

[Johnny B. Good]

They are quite good

[keep on phishin']

Yes is great. I really love Close to the Edge and Fragile

[Freddie9]

Chris Squire is amazing and Steve Howe is one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. Listen to the solo for Starship Trooper - AMAZING
A guitar solo piece called The Clap (misleading title - great song)

[magicbus]

Yea Steve Howe is amazing. I love him style of playing. Close To The Edge and Fragile are the two I have now. I love Close To The Edge. Great cd.

[The Sound of Led Smashing]

i've heard neil young referred to as the Godfather of Grunge before..at first i didn't really understand it, but i suppoes it makes sense. what do you guys think?


yeh that's true - he was one of the first "real" grunge artists. He fused together folk, rock & elements of country/rockabilly.

You can't really classify Young in a genre group, and that's what makes him so grungy.

[RNR]

I think it's just because his electric playing is sloppy and distorted.

[PinkFreud]

chris squire is what stands out to me about yes. some great bass songs are tempus fugit, soundchaser, and of course roundabout. my personal favorite overall song is heart of the sunrise (which also includes a blistering bass performance). yes, however, take a backseat to king crimson for my favorite prog group. king crimson anyone?

[thickasabrick]

I think it's just because his electric playing is sloppy and distorted.

very true. his vocals were kinda grungy too, i am never quite sure if he's singing in tune or not, although he usually sang much higher than the grunge bands of the ninetys.

edit- and i know barely anything about Yes, except for a few songs. i'm gonna go check my record collection and see if i have any of their albums, maybe i just missed one.

edit edit- no, no Yes records. although i did leave my amp on all night while at work...woopsies. :upset:

[magicbus]

I'll send you some songs if you want. I have Fragile and Close To The Edge on my computer.

[thickasabrick]

I'll send you some songs if you want. I have Fragile and Close To The Edge on my computer.

if that's directed towards me...i can just download some songs, which ones would be good to get a good taste of what Yes is all about? What's their best album to buy? I don't have AIM and my MSN isn't working, so sending songs are difficult.

I've heard the song thats like "I've seen all good people turn their heads.." and I enjoyed it. Actually, I just found out that was Yes like a month ago.

[Badmoon]

If you think about it, Elvis was really the one that made black music accesible for white people. He's more of a theif than Jimmy Page.

Elvis is not a theif nor was he the first man to make White people like Black music. I believe the first Jazz album was created by a White band.

As far as Rock n Roll goes, Whites did not steal it from Black people. Rock music is actually pretty equal between both races.

Rock n Roll = White Melodies (Country) + Black Rhythm (Blues)

Elvis combined those two elements.

Also, if you trace music back far enough, you'd be amazed how much White Folk music influenced Blues.

we've talked about Rory Gallagher before, unless you are talking about the whole discussion about stealing music. We've talked about his music and guitar playing , he's pretty good.

I think a lot time ago the laws about "stealing" music weren't nearly as strict. That's why folk, jazz, and blues artists often did covers of songs, and recieved all the credit. It wasn't really until Rock music started, that the legal aspects of coprights and stuff came into play. That's why everyone came down so hard on Zeppelin, they were doing exactly what all the blues and folk guys were doing, except that they were a mainstream band so it was a huge uproar. if they did that twenty years earlier, no one would have cared or noticed.

[RNR]

Bleh, most punk, hard rock, metal and rap steal stuff constantly without judgement.

[IAJP]

And put it in a slightly different key, that's how they get away with it.

[Woodstock]

I don't own any Yes albums, but I'd like to own The Yes Album.

whoa, weird

[Yppolitia]

I think Yes are pretty good but i havent heard much of their stuff, or not enough to buy one of there albums.

[jpj]

You should definitely check out The Yes Album and Fragile. Roundabout, Mood For A Day, Starship Trooper, and All Good People are some of my favorite songs.

[magicbus]

DUDE. You guys are all missin out on Close To The Edge. It rules.

I've been meaning to check that out on the site, but I haven't been in the mood lately. All I've been listening to is Sailing the Seas of Cheese since the day I got it.

[PinkFreud]

dont you bring youre new rock in here. cant you read the thread title? canned heat is good but i cant seem to get into them. which is odd since i love blues-rock. has anyone heard of a band called frijid pink? they were an old detroit band and the only song i can find or have heard from them is a cover of house of the rising sun. it rocked. they kept the majority of the song the same but added in some killer guitar. check it out if you can find them.

it's classic rock, but its new. That too much for you? I don't care.

yes but if its new, its not classic. im just messing around man.

and yeah its weird because i know canned heat is a great blues rock band, i just dont groove with them. i have live at topanga corral though.

So yesterday I took 4 DDs at my freind's house and woke up in my house at about 4am. I cant remember a thing. Im trying acid this weekend. :)

Just got:

Bob Dylan's 6th Seris Bootleg
Neil Young ~ Neil Young
Neil Young ~ On the Beach

In my Health class, one of the questions on the final was "Why is acid so incorperated with music from the late 60's?"

I think I was the only kid who gave an in depth answer on that.

Also I just got After the Gold Rush by Neil Young.

One of my new favorite albums ever.

Edit - They didn't say acid though. They said the really long term that LSD stands for.

[Schyma]

What does LSD stand for?

[MalcolmYoungRock]

Lysergic Acid Diethylamide

So, yes it does have the word "ACID" in it.

[Illmatic]

lysergic acid diethylamide-25, if I had to venture a guess.

[Illmatic]

Beaten to the punch. Damn me and my need to bold things.
