[QUOTE=leppermessiah]I, myself, would be happy just to get the basics down, nevermind soloing. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]

Same here :lol:

np: Rush - Tom Sawyer

[quote] And Obi One Kenodi, none of those songs would be banned. At least, I can't imagine that happening. They just have a little double meaning now.[/quote]

Meh, I wouldn't put it past my government...

I missed out on this last night, so here are my top 10 respected musicians

1) George Harrison
2) Bob Dylan
3) Pete Townsend
4) John Lennon
5) Keith Richards/ Mick Jagger
6) David Gilmour
7) Buddy Holly
8) Robbie Robertson
9) Robert Johnson
10) Eric Clapton

That was tough.

At first I couldn't get into Truth either, so I tried out Blow-By-Blow, which I loved. His guitar playing style is so unique, it's awesome to listen to what he does with it. After listening to Blow-By-Blow and Wired, I went back and checked out Truth again, and now I love it. It's a great blues-rock album, and Beck's guitar playing is pretty awesome even at that early stage. I'd give it another shot after a while if I were you.

Okay, I will try.

My local radio station is doing the top 945 songs this weekend. It's the top 100 today.

I almost never listen to the radio. The NY classic rock radio station blows, so whenever I listen to the radio it's the Connecticut radio station which gets bad reception. Maybe I'll tune in later today though, they're probably doing some countdown thing.

That's probably the crappiest part of the list.

It's predictable and you've heard them all.

I think Truth is a great album. Rod Stewart is a great vocalist, whether he's doing his own music or Jeff Beck's. But, Blow by Blow > Truth.

Actually SOYCD is on right now.

I wasnt really expecting it to make top 100.

What number is SOYCD?

77 I think.

Last year "A Day in the Life" won it.

They could do a lot worse than A Day in the Life. Wonderful song.

Yeah, I was quite surprised that it won but yeah it's a great song.

Wasn't it Townsend who was accused of checkin out child p0rno? Maybe i'm mixing that up. That would drop him on my list.

I tought it was Roger Daltrey.

No, it was Townshend. Either way, I still repsect him as a musician.

[QUOTE=Lunch]No, it was Townshend. Either way, I still repsect him as a musician.[/QUOTE]

Same with me. That does lower my overall respect for him though.

My respect for Townshend outside of the musical realm isn't very high anyway. But I have a whole lot of respect for him as a musician.

The constant Who reunions to make more money lowered my respect for him too. But as a songwriter, I've got a lot of respect for him. Actually, just because of Tommy.

[QUOTE=Lunch]No, it was Townshend. Either way, I still repsect him as a musician.[/QUOTE]

Yea, but didn't the case end in his favor?

Wasn't he just looking up a child charity and accidentally ran into a child p0rn site?

#69

CSNY-Woodstock

Not a bad list.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Yea, but didn't the case end in his favor?

Yes. He's innocent.

I think that's what happened. I'll believe that it was an accident and since no harm was done that it wasn't really a big deal.

Finally I heard one of the songs that I voted for.

White Room.

99.1? The CT one is alraight, but they usually just play AC/DC or the very best known of the CR songs. We are lucky to have a really good independent radio station that plays world/cr/alt/indie/blues/pretty much anything

I got my first Dr John album last night. :-D

I downloaded [I]Marquee Moon [/I] yesterday and I can't wait to hear it. :D

Really? Are you sure? I heard he looked it up, and then claimed it was for research when he was caught.

What album? :)

That's what I heard on the radio a little while ago.

Great album :thumb:

Walrus, the CT station I sometimes get reception to is 95.9 the fox. It's Fairfield County, so I don't know if you get reception to it. It seems much better than the NY one, but plays a lot of the same songs... Layla, Hotel California... Sometimes I hear good stuff on it though.
