[QUOTE=SpongeB0b]classic rock is definently getting more popular.

My favorites:
Pink Floyd
Zeppelin
AC/DC
Black Sabbath
Deep Purple
The Who[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't say its getting more popular, more that theres alot of people out there who have only heard Another Brick in the Wall, Stairway to Heaven, Back in Black, Smoke on the Water, and Iron Man, yet still consider themselves knowelgeble in classic rock.

TheDMV 05-31-2005 01:50 PM

MAn, it's been a while.

But, to the above post, true there are many people who have heaerd only certain songs and still consider themselves knowledgable, but TBH, I really haven't heard that much when you look at a lot of the other people in this thread, but I'd say I'm pretty knowledgable.

Badmoon, I got Workingman's Dead over the weekend and I [I]LOVE[/I] it! I'm starting to get into the Dead a lot more now. I've got American Beuty, Anthem of the Sun, and Workingman's Dead, what do you think I should go for next? The country rock thing they do is pretty unique, and I have to say Garcia has one of the most versatile voices I've heard in a while.

Get either Aoxomoxoa, Live/Dead, or Skull and Roses(s/t). Aoxo and Live/Dead are from their psychedelic era, and Skull and Roses is mostly country rock. It's live though so it's more rock than the country on Workingman's Dead or AB.

robo2448 05-31-2005 02:08 PM

Live/ Dead is really psychadelic.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]I think just a microphone will be fine. Plus you should download audacity.

I would like to do "Friend of the Devil". I think we could fit three guitars in there easily. And I know most the licks, riffs, runs, and solos to it.

EDIT: Pete Seeger owns. After hating his voice for months, I have finally gotten into it, and his writing.[/QUOTE]
Would be great. I know that song all the way through. Weir and Garcias part.

Leshs bass in Friend of the Devil is awesome.

[QUOTE=JonG]Leshs bass in Friend of the Devil is awesome.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, the guitar intro is a beleive just a G scale played backwards so I was trying to figure out if the bass is it forwards. If you know how it goes, could you help me with it?

the bass part sounds too differed to just be a g scale forward.

I think the bass is a G backwards, too.

EDIT: The tab I found sounds like forwards, so nevermind.

Also, in Vancouver-related concert news, Bob Dylan's going to be here in July.

robo2448 05-31-2005 06:29 PM

Dylan's not coming to NY :upset:

I guess I'll see him in NJ or Connecticut then, still pretty close to me.

Everyone go check out the link somebody posted in Lunch's FA. It's the last post on the 2nd page. The Who TV thing is awesome. :cool:

[QUOTE=jpj]EDIT: The tab I found sounds like forwards, so nevermind.[/QUOTE]

where'd you get it?

jpj 05-31-2005 06:45 PM

[QUOTE=TheDMV]where'd you get it?[/QUOTE]
I just searched "Friend of the Devil bass tab" on google, but I think it's on mx, too.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm really stupid. It's backwards.

Thoughts on Fleetwood Mac, anyone?

Badmoon 05-31-2005 08:50 PM

Not good.

ATM 05-31-2005 09:15 PM

[QUOTE=Canadian_Guy]Thoughts on Fleetwood Mac, anyone?[/QUOTE]

I like Peter Green. His song Oh Well is amazing.

Illmatic 05-31-2005 09:28 PM

I'm not too fond of Fleetwood Mac, to be honest.

Badmoon 05-31-2005 09:29 PM

Yea, Peter Green is cool though.

PinkFreud 05-31-2005 10:01 PM

early fleetwood mac is good. how can you take three members of the bluesbreakers and not be a good blues rock band?

thickasabrick 05-31-2005 10:39 PM

[QUOTE=Canadian_Guy]Thoughts on Fleetwood Mac, anyone?[/QUOTE]

I really like them, I've got 7 of their albums. Their earlier blues stuff was great, and their later seventies albums were just as good.

Leper 05-31-2005 11:08 PM

Fleetwood Mac is one of those bands to me where you here so many of their songs on the radio, but never realize it's them. More and more of there hits are being revealed to me these days, and I really like them.

ArcLite 05-31-2005 11:54 PM

They're one of my dad's favorite bands so I was subjected to them quite a bit growing up. And, as lepper already said, they're on the radio a lot. Don't think I ever heard a song by them that I didn't like. Good, unique vocal styles in all members that sing, and good songwriting.

Leper 06-01-2005 12:05 AM

Alright! Brian's back!! lol

ArcLite 06-01-2005 12:07 AM

You know it :). What's going on?

Leper 06-01-2005 12:16 AM

Just glad to see you keep your word and go back to the classic again man hehe

I've been working on the bassline for that song for weeks, the intro is the same as the guitar (g-scale backwards) but it doesn't play it very long. I could do bass if you need one, if you are really going to do this thing

PinkFreud 06-01-2005 10:23 AM

elvis costello is cool

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 06-01-2005 10:25 AM

Brian Wilson's [I]Smile[/I] is fantastic! I have to admit I wasn't to big of a fan of [I]Pet Sounds[/I] either. Every song sounds almost completly different, Brian's voice is better than ever, every song just flows greatly with the album and harmonies on this album are rivaled by none. I think almost everyone in this thread will appreciate it. :)

If you want to learn more about this fantastic album read Med's reveiw. (below)

I like Fleetwood Mac. They had a great knack for making catchy, extremely listeneable pop songs.
I'm especially fond of the vocal harmonies on 'The Chain'.

Badmoon 06-01-2005 10:44 AM

DMV won the NRMOTM! Second (maybe third) Classic Rock regular n00b to win it.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 06-01-2005 10:54 AM

Isn't it good to know we have great n00bs? Congrats DMV. :thumb
