[QUOTE=Seafroggys]Yeah, I wrote an article about the classic rock fad in an underground newspaper at my high school last year. Its tragic when its a fad.

And AC/DC isn't that great, yet they're in the hall of fame, yet Rush and Black Sabbath aren't?

EDIT: Is there a new bass thread? **** Cliff Burton and his dead-ness. I've always voted for Entwistle, except in the first one where Bruce was in a different catagory![/QUOTE]
black sabbath isnt? thats a terrible shame. and yes. vote entwistle.

Leper 07-19-2005 11:11 PM

Rush isn't??! They're by far the most internationally successful Canadian band, next to Neil Young. How unfortunate..and yes i agree with you AC/DC isn't that great

[QUOTE=leppermessiah] i agree with you AC/DC isn't that great[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I'm kinda over my AC/DC phase.

np: Simon & Garfunkel - Scarborough Fair Canticle

PinkFreud 07-19-2005 11:40 PM

simon and garfunkel are the cats pajamas. first concert i ever went to.

Lunch 07-19-2005 11:41 PM

They own pretty hard. As I've said, The Boxer is such a great song.

I'll give you anything, everything, if you want things.

PinkFreud 07-19-2005 11:43 PM

bridge over troubles water is a great vocal performance. and "april, come she will," is one of the most beautiful songs ever in my opinion.

Leper 07-19-2005 11:44 PM

do they sing Mrs. Robinson?...

Lunch 07-19-2005 11:46 PM

[QUOTE=leppermessiah]do they sing Mrs. Robinson?...[/QUOTE]

Yes, another great song. Bookends in general is a very good album.

You saw them in concert? Luckiness++ :eek:

My dad said if they ever did a reunion tour, he'd take me and my sister. That'd be great.

Leper 07-19-2005 11:53 PM

ya, the sounds of silence is amazing too. I heard that was on some crappy magazines list of the 100 worst songs ever or something. There was at least 1 well known Doors song on it too. I was offended.

paul simon was better without garfunkel, garfunkel jsut added vocal talent nothing else

wanton 07-20-2005 12:04 AM

[QUOTE=Johnny B. Good]paul simon was better without garfunkel, garfunkel jsut added vocal talent nothing else[/QUOTE]

It seems like he had more freedom in himself to explore different types of music after he left Garfunkel. Thats why I enjoy his solo work more.

Johnny B. Good 07-20-2005 12:06 AM

paul simon was just a very talented man held back by that biznatch garfunkel

Lunch 07-20-2005 12:08 AM

You guys really don't like Garfunkel. I don't think Simon was held back that much, he still made great music with Garfunkel, and Art was great for adding the vocal harmonies that they're famous for.

PinkFreud 07-20-2005 12:08 AM

yes but i prefer garfunkels voice, so thats all that matters to me.

It just seemed like when he was with Garfunkel, he just did folksy/poppy songs. His solo career was much more diverse.

edit: and I don't dislike Garfunkel

Leper 07-20-2005 12:11 AM

you could say the same about lennon with that biznatch mccartney haha.

ATM 07-20-2005 12:12 AM

I don't know the differences in Simon and Garfunkel's voices.

Johnny B. Good 07-20-2005 12:13 AM

Leper 07-20-2005 12:15 AM

[QUOTE=Johnny B. Good]no george harrison with the rest of the **** beatles[/QUOTE]

i meant more song-writing wise

Leper 07-20-2005 12:18 AM

[QUOTE=Johnny B. Good]just kidding i love the beatles[/QUOTE]

we ALL love the beatles. Speaking of the Beatles, i just picked up their book called "The Beatles-Anthology". Just finished reading about Lennon's childhood, and oddly enough a lot of things he said reminded me of myself... :)

That's always a good read.

Leper 07-20-2005 12:23 AM

It was the first time i can remember actually being excited to read a book since i got Kurt Cobain-Journals

/puts on David Bowie's "Space Oddity" to celebrate

Leper 07-20-2005 12:33 AM

It's crazy how much photo evidence there is against the moon landing happening. Really boggles the mind, especially considering they're all photos from NASA's files.
