Is anyone else watching this Johnny Cash thing on CBS? Right now Jerry Lee Lewis and Kid Rock are playing I Walk the Line. Jerry can still play, but can't sing too well. I actually didn't even know he was still alive.

I'm not a big fan of either :/

[I]Sticky Fingers[/I] is a sweeeet album. It's my favorite Stones album, after [I]Let It Bleed[/I] of course.

So basicaly it's not your favourite Stones album.:p

[I]Let it Bleed[/I] is my favourite too.

zabbit82 11-16-2005 08:20 PM

Exile and Main Street and Sticky Fingers are my favorites. But I've already said that in here before...

[QUOTE=barney]Is Creedence Clearwater Revival any good?[/QUOTE]

They are. If youre interested in getting into them, I would pick up "Chronicle" for starters if I were you, then maybe Cosmo's Factory.

[QUOTE=Probot77]Allman Bros. are amazing live despite all the god damn hippies at their shows[/QUOTE]

Despite the hippies? Hippies make the show awesome :smoke:

BludgeonySteve 11-16-2005 08:40 PM

Yeah, hippies improve a show. The old blues guys seem to get along with the hippies at Allman Brothers shows.

Walrus Gumboot 11-16-2005 08:53 PM

Concerts just aren't the same without that smell :D

I don't know what I would do if there were no hippies

zabbit82 11-16-2005 09:07 PM

It would be a different world of music without the hippies, thats for sure...

Thank you to whoever sent out that Syd Barrett album. I'm greatly enjoying it.

The Madcap Laughs? That was Robo, I believe, but yes, it's a really great album.

thickasabrick 11-16-2005 10:05 PM

I like CCR. I like hippies. I love Syd Barret, although I don't like Madcap Laughs more than any of his songs with Floyd.

Glitterati 11-16-2005 10:17 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]So who played piano on the Highway 61 Revisited album? Was it Mike Bloomfield or Al Kooper? Because the piano playing on that album is quite good.[/QUOTE]

I know Al Kooper played on "Like A Rolling Stone", but I'm not sure about the whole album.

np: Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman <<<< my favorite song as of right now

magicbus 11-16-2005 10:36 PM

[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]The Madcap Laughs? That was Robo, I believe, but yes, it's a really great album.[/QUOTE]

I'm also diggin' this album a lot. I love all the songs except tracks 2 and 4. They're alright, but not my favorite.

PinkFreud 11-16-2005 10:56 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]I looked it up and Dylan, Kooper, Frank Owen, and Paul Griffin are all credited as playing piano on the album...that's weird, I coulda sworn Bloomfield played piano somewhere.

NP: Jaco Pastorious - Blackbird (a very interesting cover, to say the least)[/QUOTE]
all i know is that bloomfield was the guitarist. i didnt know he played piany.

i like that cover. kind of odd, but its cool.

Glitterati 11-16-2005 11:09 PM

Hehehe. Pianist.

PinkFreud 11-16-2005 11:15 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Bloomfield used to be a pianist, but Dylan made him play guitar on the album, I think. That's what I read somewhere, at least.[/QUOTE]
for real? i thought bloomfield was always the guitarist for the paul butterfield blues band (until he left or got kicked out or whatever).

Krabsworth 11-16-2005 11:27 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Bloomfield used to be a pianist, but Dylan made him play guitar on the album, I think. That's what I read somewhere, at least.[/QUOTE]

Nah, his own site says he was always a guitarist. He didn't get kicked out, he just happened to pop up in Dylan's recording sessions one day. In 1967, he went and formed the Electric Flag.

I was thinking about watching it, but then I remembered I don't like Johnny Cash :-/. Ya for some reason I thought Jerry Lee Lewis was dead too...strange. I still REALLY want to see Walk the Line though.

ah, my bad. i was thinking of when he left the super sessions with kooper and had to be replaced with stephen stills.

Krabsworth 11-16-2005 11:50 PM

WPLJ by Frank Zappa is such an awesome song. It puts a smile on my face every time I hear it.

PinkFreud 11-16-2005 11:59 PM

god, i hope van morrison gets through this round.

i know mccartney and bowie will, but morrison deserves to.

Krabsworth 11-17-2005 12:08 AM

Oh god! What in the world happened to Bob Dylan's voice on Nashville Skyline!?!?!?

Leper 11-17-2005 12:09 AM

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]god, i hope van morrison gets through this round.

I like Van Morrison, don't know if I'll vote for him, but I enjoy some of his stuff. All I really know is "Brown Eyed Girl" and some other songs I forget the name of though. Any reccomendations?

PinkFreud 11-17-2005 02:01 AM

id rather mccartney get through, but id like morrison to as well.

as for recommendations:

caravan (live, off of the last waltz preferably)
tb sheets
cyprus avenue
moondance


really, the entire astral weeks and moondance albums are excellent.

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]ah, my bad. i was thinking of when he left the super sessions with kooper and had to be replaced with stephen stills.[/QUOTE]
I read on RYM he left because he got really sick or something.

[QUOTE]Oh god! What in the world happened to Bob Dylan's voice on Nashville Skyline!?!?!?[/QUOTE]
That's what I thought when I first listened to it. It's a good album, but it takes a few listens to get in to.

JonG 11-17-2005 06:33 AM

Heh, I liked Nashville Skyline the first time I heard it :x

Jacaran 11-17-2005 07:39 AM

Do 5 people advance in this round to the 2nd round in the vocalist poll?

Roy Orbison has an awesome voice.

Have you seen his 'Black and White Night' concert?

vote me 11-17-2005 10:31 AM

It kinda weird(belive me or not) Scott Gorman is my Uncle but i dont like classic rock at i like hardcore punk i think im kinda going to waste,Compared to you guys that would make the advantage of your uncle being in a huge rock band i mean i have jammed with him a few times but thats about it.

temporary 11-17-2005 02:45 PM

[QUOTE=Jacaran]Do 5 people advance in this round to the 2nd round in the vocalist poll?[/QUOTE]

I'm pretty sure thats how it works. I voted Bowie, easiest poll so far.
