Its not necessarily "classic rock" thats so big. Its bands that were revolutionary. Bands that were different. Jimi Hendrix. the Beatles. Led Zeppelin (who could even play folk for God's sake). but think about the bands that were revolutionary that are played on classic rock stations. they range from the early-mid 60's through the 80's in some cases. they had different sounds. Have you ever heard a band that sounds like Dire Straits? The Cure? Cream? the Doors?

Me, im mostly into led zep. I know so many random facts that its not even funny. Ive been trying to work my way back through different sub genres in "classic rock" especially the 60's heavily blues influenced bands.

Woodstock 10-03-2004 12:10 PM

So when is the list goin' up?

BludgeonySteve 10-03-2004 12:10 PM

Yep. Barely any of the bands sound the same. That's not the case with many other genres.

BludgeonySteve 10-03-2004 12:11 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]So when is the list goin' up?[/QUOTE]

About a week after the metal poll is done. So we have plenty of time to make changes. And just to keep down the spam. IM the changes to me. I'll be keeping it in a word document.

Broken Arrow 10-03-2004 02:15 PM

Neil& Crazyhorse-There comes a Time $7.99

The Band- Greatest Hits $9.99

BludgeonySteve 10-03-2004 02:17 PM

Nice. All of those. Got any changes to make to the list?

HeavyTraffic 10-03-2004 02:58 PM

Badmoon 10-03-2004 03:02 PM

I strongly dislike Status Quo, they're hardly Classic Rock.

Woodstock 10-03-2004 03:04 PM

On my CD to buy list:

Retrospective-Buffalo Springfield

Sticky Fingers-Rolling Stones

I have to mow a few lawns I guess.

I've never heard any Status Quo?

Sure, they can be classified as Classic Rock, most do. I just don't. :)

BludgeonySteve 10-03-2004 03:12 PM

Well, i've never heard of them. But I do like the stones and if they're like them then I bet I would like Status Quo.

Woodstock 10-03-2004 03:13 PM

Rolling Stones = a good, simple classic rock band

HeavyTraffic 10-03-2004 03:15 PM

anyway, how about, wishbone ash, great twin guitar band, an lovely guitar sounds an great constructed songs

Broken Arrow 10-03-2004 03:25 PM

I forgot the name of that real trippy Rolling Stones song??

If you could help........or I'll just listen to 40 licks

thickasabrick 10-03-2004 03:25 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Rolling Stones = a good, simple classic rock band[/QUOTE]

the thing about the stones..is that richards guitar is sometimes so subtle you dont notice it, even when hes playing great melodies and stuff like that. if you listen to satisfaction you might just hear chords, but hes playing some good stuff there.

I know exactly what you mean, the songs Wild Horses and Cant You Hear Me Knockin show off Richard's great improvisational skills.

Broken Arrow 10-03-2004 03:32 PM

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]paint it black?? its the one with the sitar if thats what you are thinking of.[/QUOTE]
No, Iy's the one they made after the stabbing at that concert(Altomonts???)
or some thing that sounds like that

thickasabrick 10-03-2004 03:35 PM

[QUOTE=Livewired]No, Iy's the one they made after the stabbing at that concert(Altomonts???)
or some thing that sounds like that[/QUOTE]

oh well i dont know then...have you ever seen the footage filmed at that concert? its pretty crazy.

in the song american pie, don mclean refers to mick jagger as the devil and talks about the night of the stabbing. just some random info.

edit- i went to my grandpas house a while ago and he had the forty licks cd. he just gave it to me, thats some good stuff.

thickasabrick 10-03-2004 03:59 PM

who do you think is the musician with the best credentials (if thats the word im thinking of)

i'd say maybe eric clapton or neil young. they have both been in some amazing bands and then had great solo careers over the decades.

BludgeonySteve 10-03-2004 04:03 PM

Yeah, either of them :)

Clapton was in so many of the greatest blues rock bands. And Neil Young was in lots of the most famous folk/country-ish rock bands.

Badmoon 10-03-2004 04:24 PM

Clapton > Neil when it comes to that.

Though it wouldn't be right to compare them, because there music is completely different.

Neil - Country Rock, Clapton - blues Rock

jpj 10-03-2004 04:30 PM

id say clapton just because i like his music better, but you're right they're uncomparable

Woodstock 10-03-2004 05:00 PM

I like blues and folk based rock equally, I think.

thickasabrick 10-03-2004 05:11 PM

i wasnt trying to compare neil young and eric clapton..i was asking for any other suggestions on some of the top artists.

Guitarist4life 10-03-2004 05:15 PM

Hey Hey My My (Out Of The Blue) by Neil Young is a good song both the acoustic version and the distorsion one.

jpj 10-03-2004 05:16 PM

yea well no ****
