[QUOTE=robo2448]I love both of their voices. My favorite singers are Daultry, all of the Beatles (even Ringo :eek:), Bob Dylan :eek:, Mick Jagger (more his singing style than singing skills), David Gilmour, John Fogerty and Richard Manuel, Rich Danko, and Levon Helm from the Band.

Edit- And I absolutely can't stand Robert Plant's voice. His voice makes Zeppelin unlistenable for me. He may have vocal talents, but it just sounds terrible to me. Whereas everyone says Bob Dylan has no vocal talent and I absolutely love his voice.[/QUOTE]

I find in terms of an entire band's vocal ability, I like the Beatles the best. Well, I suppose The Beach Boys...but you know. John Fogerty has an amazing voice. I don't think Daltrey is a bad singer...but he's not near my favourite. Bob Dylan is one of my favourite singers. I just put on Blonde on Blonde a few minutes ago, but I came upstairs to make tea...now I'm just waiting for the water to boil. I love Robert Plants voice. He's in my top five for favourite singers.

Illmatic, that mumbling is usually caused by him being completely wasted while recording. It happened a little too often, but I don't really think it ruined the songs...sometimes it's amusing. Sort of like how you can sometimes never understand a single word Bob Dylan sings when he plays live...but it's still a great song and it's fun to sing along to.

And I consider David Bowie classic rock in the same way I consider Elton John classic rock. And I'm not saying that in a bad way at all. I really like them both. Waters done boiling....gonna go listen to Blonde on Blonde now.

[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]I'm kind of surprised you said Robert Plant was a great singer, but not because he had a great singing voice. He had amazing range (they say there's notes on Zeppelin songs only dogs can) and a really powerfull sound.[/QUOTE]
Already been stated I think, but yeah, the dog thing, not true. Robert Plant has a decent range, but nothing particularly special. Maybe in rock music it is, but in choir or musicals you will find men who blow Robert Plant out of the water.

David Bowie glam/hair metal? I don't think so. I definitely consider him classic rock. However, I find his voice very annoying on most of his recordings. I love Young Americans though.

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]Well he's not metal, but he's one of the forerunners of glam (rock).

Incidentally, does anybody have any live mp3s of Dylan's Tangled Up In Blue with alternate lyrics they can share?[/QUOTE]

On Live '75, he changes the point of view from 1st person to 3rd person. It's interesting. Also, on the bootleg series volume 1-3, he completely changes the tempo. It sounds like a completely different song. Unfortunately, I don't have that song on my computer, but I have the Live '75 one if you want it.

While I disagree with your assesment of Plant's voice, I agree on Dylan. Sure I don't think he can sing or play guitar well, but his voice just sounds amazing. Songs like Desolation Row, Like A Rolling Stone, The Times They Are A-Changing and many more (naming every great Dylan song should be one of Herucle's tasks) all have great vocals. And Ringo's not [i]that[/i] bad. Alright well, maybe he is but the band make up for him. My favorite vocalists are:

Fredie Mercury
Robert Plant
Roger Daltrey
Jeff Buckley
Bob Dylan
Chris Cornell
Ian Gillian
Bruce Dikinson
David Bowie
Steve Perry (Journey gets no love :upset: )
Lennon, McCarney, and Harison
Brian Wilson
Roger Daltrey

[quote] thats a lie. buckley can hit notes that women find hard to hit.[/quote]

I'm not saying he couldn't, he certainly could. Lets just both agree that Buckley's great, and leave it at that?

Yeah, when Dylan does "Tangled Up in Blue" he sings most of it in a 3rd person perspective (ie, "He was standin' on the side of the road, rain fallin' on his shoes" instead of "And I was standin' on the side of the road, rain fallin' on my shoes") but he does randomly throw in the first person persective in some verses.

It always makes me wonder if it changes the meaning of the song somehow. It probably doesn't, but oh wells.

Ha, Journey gets no love cause thats all they sing about.

I'm listening to them right now as a matter of fact.

Np: Wheel In The Sky

I think Dylans' problem is he just can't remember, I saw him in concert not long ago and I know most of his songs by heart and he'd skip a few lines in a song or something along that lines quiet a few times.

Dylan throws in so many subtle little things like changing the point of view. It makes you think why he did. The best reason I can come up with is he was just playing on everyone overanalyzing his lyrics and having a good time with it.

I got a Jethro Tull album today. It's called [i]Stand Up[/i]. Pretty cool, I played it at work for everybody.

I hear that these days, if you follow Dylan around the country, you will never hear two songs exactly alike. He makes different subtle changes to all of his songs every time he performs them.

What album in Tangled Up in Blue on? I haven't heard it since I saw him live when I was 8. I have heard a Jerry Garcia cover, howerver

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]Yes, please![/QUOTE]

Sure, I'll do it now.

[QUOTE=Walrus Gumboot]What album in Tangled Up in Blue on? I haven't heard it since I saw him live when I was 8. I have heard a Jerry Garcia cover, howerver[/QUOTE]

Blood on the Tracks. Buy It Now.

Blood On the Tracks

Lily Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts is one of my all time favorite songs.

that would definitely make sense

Amanda/WG: go buy Blood on the Tracks

I've been listenin' to Nashville Skyline, and I love it. Girl From The North Country is fantastic :)

[QUOTE=JonG]I've been listenin' to Nashville Skyline, and I love it. Girl From The North Country is fantastic :)[/QUOTE]

That's what I like to hear :)

I really disliked NS when I first got it, but it has since grown on me.

Does anyone have the Blonde on Blonde outakes album?

[QUOTE=robo2448]Blood on the Tracks. Buy It Now.[/QUOTE]


I just went shopping (in my garage) and found it in it's original packaging and everything along with:

Little Feat- Waiting for Columbus
Roy Orbison- Mystery Girl
Jeff Back- Wirerd (OMGWTFBBQHELSYEAH!)
John Lennon/ Yoko Ono- Double Fantasy

David Bowie is amazing.

[QUOTE=Slug]I don't think you can define a "good" singer.

I love Morrison because his voice matched the music perfectly.[/QUOTE]

Exactly. I find that if the music you play matches your voice, that's cooler than just having a "great voice", if that makes any sense.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]I love David Bowies' voice, even when listening to a song the emotion/attitude just pours out.
I dunno, David Bowie Classic Rock? I think so.

Bah, no not glam! I consider him Classic Rock.[/QUOTE]

Bowie fanboy, right here :cool:

I don't mind Journey. I prefer Prism. For some reason one always reminds me of the other.

I'd say just the opposite about Dylan. Many of his songs have 10+ verses, and I can guarantee not many people can remember every line to every song when they are as big of a pothead as he was. You can't blame someone for forgeting a line (or verse..heh heh) here or there. I've done that before when performing, although it was a song I wrote so no one realized it.

I like Journey. Wheel In The Sky is kinda cheesy though.

Quite the statement there, Pink.

Oh yeah, I was gonna ask this. What was the drug that Hendrix got arrested for possessing that one time, when a fan slipped it in his bags? I can't remember if it was cocaine or heroin (it might be neither for all I know).

And did we ever get to hear clips of SonorKens gig?

Disc 2:

1) Track 1
2) Melissa
3) Track 3
4) Midnight Rider
5) New song from Hittin' the Note

Anyone see The Foo Fighters play Born on the Bayou on the Hurrican relief concert? Paul Simon was just on.

Walrus, I think "That Slow One" is Woman Across the River.

I heard he thought his manager did it because he wanted a new manager and the one he had at the time was like part of a gang, so that manager did it to show him a lesson. Or something, I can barley remember anything about it except I think it was in Toronto?

And "New Song" is Rockin' Horse.

I enjoyed seeing Neil Young, I'm sure that he was moved by this whole thing, he's such a compassionate person

I did not see that. I would have wanted to see Paul Simon. How did he do?

And thank you soo much for the uploads Walrus Gumboot. I've been gobbling up every upload I can get my hands on like some sort of smack addict since they closed the YSI threads.

Do you know the name's of Track 1 and Track 3? It's driving me crazy because I can't think of the names :angry:

Which reminds me, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel are my favourite singing duo...second only to Lennon and McCartney.

Man I've got one of those caffeine buzzes again. This is weird. It feels like the buzz I get from smoking a few cigarettes. I'm not a regular cig smoker so I find it affects me quite greatly.

...I saved the best for last :D

1) Mountain Jam Featuring Trey Anastasio (Imagine a 45-or so year old man smoking a joint, ripping off his shirt, beating his chest and screaming with glee right behind me)
2) Everyone screaming for an encore (We were right next to the mic, I can kind of here my sister and I saying "Yay" like retards to make fun of the guy behind us)
3)One Way Out

I laughed when I read your name. You're overdoing the whole stoner thing though...and I can imagine it getting very annoying.

Mountain Jam is a great song though. I'll agree to that.

when duane did it tho, man, it was like an epiphany, like a sonic orgasm (like, no clean up!) he and dickey hit it up like a bowl. whoa when it goes back after the drum and bass and waltz part is makes me feel like an earthquake i mean yeah anyway i cant describe it

elizabeth read also, but once i had smoked 3 bowls, and big like a 1/2 gram each and when the bass break thing came in (you know like eweee, like the ascending scale) i was like WHAT IS IN MY HEAD that was sick

also bongs, but thats a story for another day (bowl?
