[QUOTE=Illmatic]One thing I am thankful for about this thread: You guys completely changed my opinion on Neil Young :) The guy is fantastic[/QUOTE]

Yeah I listened to Everybody Knows This is Nowhere about an hour ago....I think that's my favourite album of his.

Ulysses 09-04-2005 05:27 AM

I like his both his solo work and with Crosby, Stills and Nash, terrific songwriter. I was listening to the album "Comes A Time" not so long ago, its a solid record though one of my favourite of his songs would have to be Ohio, nice track that.

DeusExMachina 09-04-2005 07:43 AM

I like Neil Young, and definitely like his work in CSNY. I'm not as big a fan of Crosby Stills and Nash without Young though. It's good, but what I've heard of it doesn't strike me as amazing.

I was actully high when I wrote that too. :lol:

Maybe because Pink Floyd happens to belong to this classification of highly diverse music. :)

Random: A few days ago my BCIS teacher let us play [I]Hot Rats[/I] (because she's into nstrumental Jazz) and it's probablly the first time a teacher has ever played a Frank Zappa album to a class room. I'm glad I could be a part of it. :)

Metallifan85 09-04-2005 08:37 AM

Nah, I had a teacher who played [i]Hot Rats[/i] too, actually. It was the first time I heard Zappa.

It was in a music class though, not like in the middle of physics or anything,

I love that album. It's a great album to use as an intro to Zappa , too.

PinkFreud 09-04-2005 09:49 AM

its fairly accessible, not too weird, and shows off his bands awesome technical talent.

ATM 09-04-2005 09:56 AM

It also shows Frank's skill on the guitar. A lot of people don't know how good of a player he was.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 09-04-2005 10:03 AM

It was his first solo project that prooved Zappa wasn't just a freak with a freakish band to match. It showed his skills as a composer rather than his off color lyrics just a really great album here. :)

NP: Willie the Pimp - Frank Zappa

ATM 09-04-2005 10:05 AM

Wasn't he listed as like 70 something in Rolling Stones greatest guitarists list?

My dad and I were laughing at how bad the list was.

PinkFreud 09-04-2005 10:06 AM

the fact that joan jett was on it at all completely discredited it. haha.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 09-04-2005 10:16 AM

Kurt Cobain was like in the top 10. :lol:

Was Jeff Beck on it? What was he?

Glitterati 09-04-2005 10:18 AM

Kurt Cobain? :lol:

He said himself he was sloppy :lol:

np: Beach Boys - Good Vibrations

The list is a joke. Beck was like 14, but Gilmour 82 :angry:

wtf :angry: :angry:

rockinbass17 09-04-2005 10:22 AM

Come on, Ramone, Cobain, and White in the top 20? I suppose they wanted a diverse group of musicians, influential, too, but come on.......

Glitterati 09-04-2005 10:23 AM

Jack White before Tom Morello and Mark Knopfler?

Roflmao.

ATM 09-04-2005 10:25 AM

Jack White is a good guitarist, but he should have been WAY down the list.

thunderzstruck 09-04-2005 10:25 AM

The cover to that issue is a poster on my wall :)

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 09-04-2005 10:27 AM

Kurt Cobain better than Jeff Beck??!?!?!? :lol:

This list was written by a retard. WTF? :lol:

If I had to point out everything wrong with that list It'd take forever. :lol:

robo2448 09-04-2005 10:27 AM

[QUOTE=Slug]Jack White is a good guitarist, but he should have been WAY down the list.[/QUOTE]

He certainly has some talent, but he and Gilmour should have switched places. Neil Young was way down with Gilmour too, terrible list.

I guess they can't please everybody.

[QUOTE=thunderzstruck]The cover to that issue is a poster on my wall :)[/QUOTE]

I think I have that poster too, as long as it's the Hendrix one. The list sucks, but Hendrix rules, so I figured I could still use the poster.

ATM 09-04-2005 10:30 AM

At least Duane Allman was in the top 5.

rockinbass17 09-04-2005 10:31 AM

The makers of that list weren't prog fans.
Howe at 69, Lifeson not even on the list, Gilmour at 82.
