[QUOTE=Slug]I thought that was Bob Dylan?[/QUOTE]

I think you can argue Buddy Guy for that title as well.

EDIT: Beaten

Well now, it seems I have to go do some fact checking, but I thought when I was at Experience Music Project it said he credited Otis Redding with being his idol/biggest influence.

But now that I think about it I might be wrong cause Otis Died in 1967 and that was just weeks after he recorded his strongest song.

I can remember all three being huge influences on him.

For anyone who's interested the Poll for Listening Party 60's Rock style is up in Alt/Indie.

[QUOTE=Livewired]Guys the next A&I listening party is gonna be 60's rock. I suggest you guys come. I saw Pink Freud, Med and Jacaranda in today's listening party.[/QUOTE]

This one made me laugh

NP- ELP- Jeruselem. I think this song should become an offical Christmas song

Captian Beefheart although I nominated Forever Changes.

I voted Forever Changes because I have always wanted to hear it, but all of the others look interesting too.

I wish I would have nominated Happy Trails.

Gawd darnit I shoulda done a Velvet Underground CD. That would be fun to listen too.

:lol: This is what Zappa told me in the poll thread:[QUOTE=Zappa]You're no longer allowed to have that avatar or user title, you hippie.[/QUOTE]I think it's funny as hell but I can't tell if he was being serious or not.

I wish I could have added Os Mutantes. :-/

He was just kidding, Zappa's a closet-hippy.

My new and likely final article is up now, on NRPS instead of Ten Years After like I originally said:

Also today I got Live Phish 14, the one where they cover Quadrophenia.

'Sup new avatar and user title? :cool:

It's really well done and interesting to hear a different take on the album. I'm not through it yet, but so far it's good. The 4-disc set also features a 40-minute jam on You Enjoy Myself and covers of A Day In the Life and My Generation (I haven't gotten to these yet, but they look promising).

I was looking at the track lists on some of those and on 13 (I think) they cover like half the songs on The White Album.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]Canadian Guy you listen to any Otis Redding or Sam Cooke?[/QUOTE]

I've only heard "Sitting on the dock of the bay," and I like that. (I'm Canadian-Guy, BTW)

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]He was just kidding, Zappa's a closet-hippy.[/QUOTE]

It's true.

On another note, I think Elvis Costello is one of the greatest songwriters ever.

[QUOTE=jpj]I was looking at the track lists on some of those and on 13 (I think) they cover like half the songs on The White Album.[/QUOTE]

I think they cover VU's Loaded on one of them too.

I just found this vinyl copy of Tommy that has a huge pinball on the front cover instead of Lunch's avatar, and it says it has all kinds of guest vocalists, like Ringo Starr and Sandy Denny, has anyone else heard of this? It says it was made in 1972

As far as I know it's a live version with an orchestra and special guests. Ringo sings on Fiddle About and Tommy's Holiday Camp.

[QUOTE=Lunch]As far as I know it's a live version with an orchestra and special guests. Ringo sings on Fiddle About and Tommy's Holiday Camp.[/QUOTE]

So he replaced Moon? :(

I don't mean any disrespect, but Ringo can't play Keith's stuff. I think he just sang.

Maybe it's the soundtrack to the movie?

I just learned that my library has cds :cool:

I got Pink Floyd- Delicate Sound of Thunder and Eric Clapton- Unplugged.

Unplugged pwns. Haven't listened to DSOT yet.

np- Tears in Heaven

The Doors had some of the best lyrics of all time...Morrison was creative...Now all bands do is yell as loud as they can about political stuff (sorry Green Day...you sold out)....Back then they just downright did it the right way :thumb:

[QUOTE=Teh_Dime]Morrison was creative[/QUOTE]

Yep. That's the truth right there.

^^^^^Yeah if anyone was made the best frontman of all time he would be up therein top 3...I mean look at any of his songs...

I downloaded Unplugged from the Other Music YSI when my internet was fast.

My internet is weird. Most of the time, it's incredibly slow. But some days, it gets really fast.

Edit: To stay on topic of CR, my favorite track on Unplugged is Running on Faith.

That is quite possibly one of my favorite songs.

[QUOTE=Schyma]:lol: This is what Zappa told me in the poll thread:I think it's funny as hell but I can't tell if he was being serious or not.

Probably not serious.

Did you get that Jeff Beck Bootleg I uploaded in the Other Music YSI?

All Things Must Pass is SUCH a brilliant album.

[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]All Things Must Pass is SUCH a brilliant album.[/QUOTE]

I listened to it yesterday, and decided that George Harrison is probably my favorite all-around musician ever. Great singer, songwriter, guitar player, sitar player... He's just so cool.

All the work he's done with every band is great.

He's like the smart little brother who gets all of his ideas rejected by his older brothers in the Beatles.

Any fans of Savoy Brown here? I found a CD of em, [I]Raw Sienna[/I]. It's pretty good.

Where I come from most people listen to rap, dance. But not me and my friends.

Im 16 and I love...
Zeppelin
Hendrix
Cream
CCR
Doors
Yen Years After
Yard Birds
Canned Heat
....are my favs.

Hell I’m even going to art college, I’m practically living in the 60's :cool:. I would like to see Classic Rock make a come back, but it wont happen, it is still great though. I don’t think classic rock should be just listened too, there is allot of history behind it and its well worth knowing most of it about bands and such :)

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Any fans of Savoy Brown here? I found a CD of em, [I]Raw Sienna[/I]. It's pretty good.[/QUOTE]I saw one of their albums once, didn't buy it though. I rememebr you mentioning him after saying you only like rare music. :p

Guys go to The Listening Party Poll and vote against PATGOD, vote Zombies.

Well, they aren't exactly a commonly mentioned band.

I voted Zombies \m/

I wish I did but I voted TMR really early .

I listened to that Zombies album a long time ago, but I didn't like it. People should definitely vote for it because it has the best chance to beat PATGOD.

I actually didn't like that Zombies album, so I didn't voted for it.
