I finally got Aqualung and Deep Purple's Greatist Hits. (I'm usually against greatest hits, but it was all I could find so I decided to buy it.)

d'amn, you should have looked out for 'Burn', they remastered it and 're-released' a annerversery version of it recentally.

I heart Simons voice.

DVG.

Yea I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend more money to buy a few of their individual albums offline. I don't know if I like Deep Purple enough to buy them though.

Fairy' 'nuff. That said, Burn is an amazing song. The way its constructed on the guitar is great, its so simple yet sounds so awsome.

DVG.

Yea all the songs are pretty good. It all kind of sounds the same to me a little bit. Therefore, just the greatist hits CD is enough for now.


Ooh Lucky 7's.

At the record show, I picked up these, both on vinyl:

Santana 1(still factory sealed)

CSN s/t

**** you! I was wanting to get Aqualung and a Deep Purple album too! Didn't have the money for both, didn't have the money for Aqualung, but I got Deep Purple in Rock instead (way better then any Greatest Hits crap, but you have to go to one of those large underground CD stores to do it)

Machine Head is a kick *** album
Aqualung is a really kick *** album

Tull> Deep Purple

Simple mathamatics my friends.

[QUOTE=Medopalis]*seconded*

Deep Purple are very very overrated.[/QUOTE]
Actually, I think they're both overated. Deep Purple moreso.

tull is way better than deep purple in my opinion. most people only look at aqualung because its their most mainstream album, but they have lots of great blues and folk albums as well...they mastered every genre of music. in '88 they won best metal band for some thing, which was like twenty years after they formed.

Add one more very to that and you have yourself a deal ;)

I agree. This is why Machine Head=kick *** album, while Aqualung=[B]really[/B] kick *** album. The really changes everything.

Metallica only had 2 good albums anyways.

We need a new topic. This thread is slowing down,....... a lot.

Lets combine our brain power.

Hmm...I can't think of anything :upset:

Yes, holy fux0rz only 26 poss in 10 hours :rolleyes:


What does everyone think of odd instuments being used in rock? Like Tull's flute or The Grateful dead's banjo playing. Or even the bagpipes in ac/dc's "it's a long way to the top (if you want to rock n roll)".

I personally think that the reason why today's rock music is slipping is because of lack of addition instruments. It's just guitar, bass drums now.

Discuss the advantages in Rock music of uncommon instruments to it.

I think Tull's flute adds a lot to their music. I honestly don't think Thick As a Brick would be nearly as good without it.

Perfect Example: Pink Floyd

They used so many odd intruments, it's impossible to count.

Odd instruments are great, They're different and different is good. You can't just do the same old thing over and over, it gets boring. The music must change! Whether it's instruments or song structure or whatever.

I haven't posted much this weekend.

Anyways Im know its not odd but I love harmonica in music,

Not enough Harmonica.:(

Also Marimba in "Under My Thumb"

AND EVERYONE loves the sitar!!

I like supertramp's use of instruments.

The sitar in Paint It Black is awesome.

I would like to learn some more instruments.

I can play the drum set very well, I can play and write some piano, and i can play a bunch of orchestral percussion. Hopefully I'll be getting and learning to play a djembe soon too.
