[QUOTE=guitrguy]If any of the Pink Floyd Albums are overrated, it is The Wall (even then not by that much).[/QUOTE]

I totally agree. I never liked the wall much except a few songs. I think the Divison bell is the most underated, since it gets no attention since it came out after Waters left (wayyyy after, in 1994), but still is very good, especially Gilmours guitar work.

I just listened to Thw Who's Live at Leeds album, and it was very good. Alot of great classics on it - its hard to dislike a collection of songs like this.

Ok so I have this friend(he's rich) and I was playing some music(CSN&Y and The Who) and all of a sudden he thinks he's the biggest classic rock fan. He went out and bought So Far and Who's Next and all he heard was the song Ohio.

This just pissed me off. I had to get ti out of my system.

And so this isnt spam, are any of your friend posers?

Well, i dont think its so much the tone...but this is a good example of how Floyd uses so many effects ALL THE TIME, that you cant even tell, but it sounds so dam good your better off not knowing. Heres the effects he used (all together) during the song

Compressor (intro)
Overdrive mid gain (intro + solo)
Chorus (intro + solo)
Phaser (3rd solo + intro)

And i think Delay and Reverb were used here and there, but i cant be sure. But yes, beutiful guitar sound. Invest a good $3000 and yours can sound like that! really, thats all it cost!

I love how you can save a post from being spam just by asking a question remotely related to classic rock.

So anyway my firend had Pink Floyd on his mp3 player and didn't know who it was, not really a poser just kinda funny.

Dogs=the best Floyd song IMO.

the mighty zep 11-08-2004 04:14 PM

Yeah well, beat this.

Im talkin to my friend right now online, and he likes this band called the butthole surfers. Hes trying to convince me right now to like them and uses the reason "There not much different from pink floyd"

drugstore cowboy 11-08-2004 04:14 PM

My friend's into blink 182 and green day style stuff...But his dads's a big classic rock fan. I hate it, cause he'll say "Yeah, I love classic rock", and he'll play some Led Zeppelin or Grand Funk =p off the computer...and then halfway through the song, stop it and play some blink and such. Oi...

Some of my friends are like that.

Why do you always do this =p ?

Woodstock 11-08-2004 04:17 PM

Most of my friends are getting into classic rock, because of me. But they're slowly learning to expand their musical tastes.

Yea I never under stood =p. Please explain it's meaning =p :confused:

I was at my cousin's house, who also likes classic rock, and we were listening to Steve Miller, and my other cousin was like dude Blink is so much better than this......






I slit his throat :evil:

it's this: :p and it's become a habit to use = instead of : for the eyes. back when we didn't have emoticons, and we had to be creative..yeah.

the mighty zep 11-08-2004 04:22 PM

Its hard to get people to entirely change their musical taste unless its voluntary. Some of my friends do love Zeppelin, Floyd, Van Halen, Rush etc., But i do catch them with green day or even some rap playin on their computer every now and then.

I dont know why, but now, i seriously can not enjoy ANYTHING modern. I dont know why...i try but cant

/is listening to Dogs

Also the sam ecousin the at said Blink>Steve Miller likes AC/DC, and he had only heard Jump and was like Van Halen rox0rz! He got a CD and he just skips to Jump and Panama :angry:

[QUOTE=the mighty zep]I dont know why, but now, i seriously can not enjoy ANYTHING modern. I dont know why...i try but cant[/QUOTE]

Same here. I like a song or two from the "modern era", but otherwise I've become really jaded towards newer music. It all seems so much the same. I'll bet that was the case back in the 60's and 70's, though, too.

[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]Well than that's a lot of ....oh well.[/QUOTE]

I know, I do it alot. But I can quit anytime I want though. Seriously.....=p.

I'm pretty much the same, I enjoy some RATM and some RHCP once in a while but there not much else, besides rap :rolleyes:

the mighty zep 11-08-2004 04:33 PM

If there is a band that comes along from former bands (Audioslave for example), odds are Ill like them, but totally forget about them after a month. THey did have a good album, along with Queens of the Stone Age and RHCP, who are getting worse IMO.

But i think Dave Grohl is one of the few musicians closest to classic rock in this age. Does anyone agree (or even know who he is?)

I know who he is. I've only heard a few foo fighters songs, but I liked them. Wasn't he doing like a metal album with like a bunch of special guests like Lemmy from or something? I thought I saw something about it in a guitar magazine.

i cant stand that! when a friend gets into a band seriously, and your all happy, but when they come over and want to listen, they just tell you to keep playin the same 3 or 4 songs - totally unwilling to listen to anything else, or even accept as another song by the band.

Its especially bad when that paticular person loves a paticular song.....and can not sing for his life.

But they found the yardbirds hilarious. Figure a band with the greatest guitarist - Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, and Jeff Beck - making songs like Over Under Sideways Down and the Hot House of Omargarashid...though that one is funny. I love that little wobbly noise in the backround about 1:30 (i think) into the song.

jpj 11-08-2004 04:39 PM

They thought The Yardbirds were funny? I don't think I like them :angry:

I dont know about that, but aside form being guitarist from the Foo Fighters, he plays drums for Queens of the Stone Age and he did for Nirvana too (which i dont really enjoy his work for). But his drum solo on Song for the Dead, on the album Songs for the Deaf was pretty good. Not like Moby Dick or nothin, but playin like that for that long isnt as easy as it sounds

Broken Arrow 11-08-2004 04:40 PM

Yeah thats like a friend og mine that bought Hotel Caslifornia for the s/t song

Hey, have you guys heard any John Butler Trio? Badmoon, i reckon the'd be in your league.

Yea, I've heard some swtuff. Very little though, and I should check them out more. :)

the mighty zep 11-08-2004 04:44 PM

I just learned Hotel California on the guitar, theirs alot of stuff goin on there, its not just like appregos for G and A and C or watever, its very complicated.

If by any chance somebody here plays guitar, I need some cheaper versions of Gilmours effects, since he invest a good 300 bucks into those machines, and i couldnt live another 20 years and make that much money. I plan on covering the entire Dark Side of the Moon Album, so this isnt going to be cheap

And another question...I believe a slide guitar is used in Breathe and The great Gig in the Sky...is there anyway i can get a sound like that out of a normal guitar, with a metal slide or anything. Im looking at a DSOTM guitar tab book on thursday, hopefully it will have everything for both guitars, effects used, and actually incluse the entire song

Classic Rock is the best. Recently ive been getting into Black Sabbath, 'Paranoid' is a **** good cd...can anybody recommend any other songs (not on paranoid) or albums?
