Overall:
Genesis 37
Yes 7
Emerson Lake and Palmer 6

Jethro Tull 1

id have a ****load of more songs played but almost all of them arent tagged right (anybody know how to label them right?)

JonG 12-26-2005 07:04 PM

Yeah I do.

You right click them and go to Properties, then Advanced. You label in the stuff there. You don't need album, year or track number.

An easy way to tell if they're tagged is to view your music in "Tile".

To do so, go to View> then Tiles.

So I got these CD's for Christmas:
Weezer - Make Believe
The Clash - London Calling
Derek and the Dominoes - Layla
The Eagles - Hotel California
The Who - Live At the Isle Of Wight Festival 1970
The Who - The Who By Numbers
Blues Brothers - The Definitive Collection
John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers - As It All Began 64-69
Cream - Disraeli Gears
Guns n' Roses - Appetite For Distruction

JonG 12-26-2005 07:10 PM

Revolver was the first Beatles album I've ever owned. I was recommended it from this thread :)

I just picked up "Tonight's The Night". I'm listening to it now.

Still lookin' for Zuma though.

Nice haul. The Blues Brothers rock, I got the movie and soundtrack for my birthday last fall.

np- Fortunate Son

I could upload Zuma.

Rubber Soul was my first Beatles album that I owned, not my parents.

JonG 12-26-2005 07:21 PM

That's fine. I'll find it on Soulseek.

zabbit82 12-26-2005 07:23 PM

Revolver and Rubber Soul are amazing. I was recommended those albums in here too. Its impossible for me to say which is the better album....

JonG 12-26-2005 07:25 PM

Revolver has a weak ending IMO. My favorite on that album is probably "She Said, She Said". I don't know why, but I love it.

np: Neil Young - Speakin' Out

zabbit82 12-26-2005 07:31 PM

I think it has a great ending. My favorites on that have to be "Taxman", "Elenor Rigby", "Tomorrow Never Knows", and "Got To Get You Into My Life."

Glitterati 12-26-2005 07:57 PM

[QUOTE=Schyma]OMG get Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas!!! One of my alltime favorite movies.

Ray Charles owns any and every Rock singer that has ever been recorded.

Bye Bye, Love - Ray Charles[/QUOTE]

Why is it no surprise that you love Fear & Loathing? :p

Brewer14 12-26-2005 08:07 PM

[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]Sultans, is a good compilation, I was thinking of buying it to further my Dire Straites library. Mark Knophler is one of the most tasteful guitarists ever.[/QUOTE]

Buy it, I like it. I think Knopler's underrated


I got these other CD's too, I just didn't mention them since they're not classic rock:

Queens of the Stone Age- Lullabies to Paralyze
Weezer- Pinkerton
Killers- Hot Fuss
Johnny Cash- Live at Folsom Prison
The Essential Johnny Cash
Death Cab For Cutie- Transatlanticism
Audioslave- Out of Exile

Cash is doooope

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]Why is it no surprise that you love Fear & Loathing? :p[/QUOTE]

I got a 30$ best buy GC I might have to pick that movie up and get ripped and watch it. Then go operate some power tools.

np:Sunny Day Real Estate- Days Were Golden
next classic rock playing: Ted Nugent- Hey Baby

Ha, you go do that :lol::lol:

Seriously, we need more Black Sabbath discussion in here. They're so f[FONT="Verdana"]u[/FONT]cking awesome. I love how dark and evil they sound.

jpj 12-26-2005 10:34 PM

Black Sabbath is fu[SIZE="2"]c[/SIZE]king awesome. The atmosphere their music creates is just so evil and cryptic. Iommi's riffs are amazing too.

JonG 12-26-2005 10:37 PM

I respect Iommi, but I can't stand his solos. They're incredibly boring IMO.

I finally figured out how to get movies on my iPod.

/w00t

magicbus 12-26-2005 11:18 PM

I love Iommi's tone, it's a huge part of what gives Sabbath that evil sound. Butler is also pretty much an awesome bass player. But as jpj said, the evil atmosphere of the songs is what really catches me.

Any suggestions as to another Sabbath album after [I]Paranoid[/I]? Everytime I go to the store (like today, for example), I always check out the Sabbath section but never know which one to buy next.

JonG 12-26-2005 11:21 PM

I've been listening to "And This Is Maxwell Street".

Jake requested it to me, and it's amazing. It's in 1964, on Maxwell Street where blues acts would come, and somebody decided to record it. The amazon link is here:[url]http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00004YN9X/qid%3D1135660958/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-7022027-2140919[/url]

I might YSI later..

Also, Badmoon or anybody who's seen City of God. Is it in English, or is it all in Porteugese(sp)?

Master Of Reality. It has Sweet Leaf, which has one of the greatest intros of all time. A hacking cough, then this totally testicle crushing guitar intro.

City Of God, as Plath said, is Brazilian Portegese (sp) with English subtitles.

Incredible film, I highly recommend you rent/buy it if you can.

Master of Reality, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, and s/t are all great. S/t has N.I.B., but Master of Reality has Into the Void and Sweet Leaf, than there's Sabbath Bloody Sabbath with...Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. You really can't go wrong with any of those.

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]Quoted for the awesomeness that is The Beatles.

I bought a Black Sabbath shirt today. It's and black and dark, with this kinda angel thing on it.[/QUOTE]

magicbus 12-27-2005 01:18 AM

I love Sweet Leaf. THAT song is evil.

JonG 12-27-2005 01:20 AM

Wow, so I get Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas downloaded and converted. Then it doesn't work on my iPod.

:X

PinkFreud 12-27-2005 01:30 AM

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 12-27-2005 02:44 AM

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]I don't think you're missing much; I was very disappointed by the film.[/QUOTE]
Yea, but that's coming from the guy who worships Motley Crue. :p
