CCR rocks.

Creedence Gold, Their s/t album and More Creedence Gold are all fabulous (I bet the rest are but those are the only ones i have :/

Badmoon 10-09-2004 08:50 AM

"Down on the Corner" sounds like "Whiskey in the Jar" (the ways it's supposed to be performed)

lunch998 10-09-2004 09:00 AM

I actually don't own any CCR, so what album do you recommend I get? I'm leaning towards Green River.

Broken Arrow 10-09-2004 09:07 AM

Cosmo's Factory is pretty good :thumb:

BludgeonySteve 10-09-2004 09:07 AM

Green River (the song) rocks. I bet the album does too.

Creedence Gold, Their s/t album and More Creedence Gold <-----teh essentials I sez

lunch998 10-09-2004 09:23 AM

Cool. Now if only I had some money.....

Dark Hero 10-09-2004 09:49 AM

How come no one ever talks about The Zombies? There one of the best bands of the 60's IMO.

They are good, but they aren't well known enough, unfortunately.

On a completely unrelated note, I just realized the Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel is one of my favorite songs ever.

I wonder which Who I should recommend...try these
My Generation, Pinball Wizard, Amazing Journey, The Seeker, We Don't Get Fooled Again, Substitute, Baba O'riley, Slip Kid...
Personally I prefer the earlier Who stuff, but most people like the stuff I just suggested.

Badmoon 10-09-2004 10:15 AM

Everyone loves the songs you suggested.

Well that was the point. I'm not saying those are my personal favorites.

ANtreaper 10-09-2004 10:50 AM

For some songs for The Doors, i'd suggest:

Back Door Man*
Break on Through
Hello, I Love you
Light my fire
Love street*
Peace frog
Riders on the storm*
Roadhouse blues*
People are strange
The soft parade*

* = personal favorites.

BludgeonySteve 10-09-2004 10:50 AM

For the doors maybe, Light My Fire, The End, LA Women, Roadhouse Blues, Strange days, People Are Strange, When the music's over...

All of that good stuff.

YellowShirt 10-09-2004 11:00 AM

[QUOTE=B0nz0]ok ok, i admit it, i'm a classic rock nut. i love led zeppelin, the beatles, the who, eric clapton, the doors, and so on. most of the bands i listen to broke up years before i was born. at 17, nearly every song on my playlist is older than me. but is it just my imagination, or is classic rock experiencing sort of a revival. i am running into an increasing number of classic rock fans my age. at my school (an all boys high school), the school newspaper took a poll of everyone's favorite genre and band. led zeppeling got 5th and the beatles got 6th, behind that rap crap. classic rock made up a large percent of ppls favorite genre. is this just by me, or are other ppl noticing this too?

o and for u classic rock fans, the crime of the new century was that the Yardbirds new CD, Birdland, recieved no attention at all. that deserved a grammy, or 6.

so are there any other classic rock fans out there, and even if ur not, have u been noticing somewhat of a revival in interest for that sort of music?[/QUOTE]

i think it is because the people who used to love classic rock when it was new are now parents and maybe showed it to there kids

Dark Hero 10-09-2004 11:12 AM

i think dark hero kinda summed up the doors top songs..im a huge doors fan. i think strange days is their best album...although all their albums were amazing.

Oh ok. Your previous post confused me.

You know, suprisingly enough, that doesn't help us with anything.

Woodstock 10-09-2004 12:17 PM

Morrison Hotel is my favorite Doors album, followed by LA Woman. But they are all great.

thickasabrick 10-09-2004 12:20 PM

its weird how each doors album changed so much. if they kept going it probably would have been like straight r&b music.

Dark Hero 10-09-2004 12:22 PM

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]probably would have been like straight r&b music.[/QUOTE]

Kind of like Van Morrison.

BludgeonySteve 10-09-2004 01:20 PM

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Morrison Hotel is my favorite Doors album,.[/QUOTE]

Yay. Me too :D

Whatever 10-09-2004 01:44 PM

this is a little off on a tangent, but I don't know if the Doors could have gone on and still been so revolutionary. they would have either turned into crap (aerosmith), or (stay with me) they wouldn't have made the same music if they hadn't done drugs and stuff. For example: Syd barrett would not have gone crazy if he didn't drop so much acid, but Pink floyd would not have been the same. It's a similar situation with Nirvana.

There is no answer to that question, only something you can wonder about.

To Whatever...

Doors were the only band to have sense and stop before things got worse. We could all agree (with a few exceptions) that most, even the greatest bands of all tim, get worse as years go on.
