And all of use. That's such a great song/album :)

It really is, all I need now is Red.

W00t!!!!!!!!!3000

Have any of you heard Blind Faith's work. They were one of Clapton's short lived bands in the sixties. Their only album is great, I suggest checking it out.

I'm familiar with them, Ginger Baker was also involved methinks, but I've never heard their work.

They were pretty good. They didn't last very long though and didn't get a lot ofpraise for their album.

I'd call Blind Faith a "pre supergroup".

I think that french herion killed Jim as he killed Janis Jolpin.[/QUOTE]

your last statement confuses me a little. i understand that by Jolpin you mean Joplin, but you think Jim Morrison killed Janis Joplin? Or you think that Jean's heroin killed them both? I dont think it was french heroin either, most likely chinese.

I think Jim died because he was probably the most unhealthy person in the world. He said he didn't believe in drinking any fluids other than alcohol with a meal (and we all know how much he drank), he started smoking a couple packs of cigarettes a day, did cocaine and heroin a lot near the end of his days.

He should have stuck with acid and pot...that's the Jim Morrison I know and love.

Yea, the drinking every minute is what really made me lose a hero. I really looked up to the pot smoking, acid taking Jim Morrison.























:p

Woah.
What I meant was: I think is was the French Herion dealer who killed Jim.

Count Jean Bretuil or something like that.(I wasn't completely thinking straight earlier.;)

Yeah sorry, as I said before I'm not really thinking today.

I just bought Led Zeppelin II today. I was really looking for LA Woman, but they didn't have it.

John Lennon did a lot of heroin in the 70's. Just thought I'd point that out.

Its Yoko who got him into that.

[QUOTE='[motorbreath]']I cant really judge The Darkness's skill because that **** video always distracts me. It's so annoying and obnoxious IMO.[/QUOTE]
The Darkness are a very good band.

Check out heartbreaker on it it has a really good solo

I think every great guitarist has done massive amounts of heroin. A lesson to be learned from that, if you wanna be good--DO HEROIN!

Did Page do it? Did Clapton? Did Beck? Harrison?

Clapton, yes tons. Clapton probably got Harrison into since they were together all the time while Clapton was heavily into it. I dunno much about Page so.. Beck I dunno either.

Clapton always seemed like the good guy to me.

[QUOTE=cheeto-t]Check out heartbreaker on it it has a really good solo[/QUOTE]

I'm not a big fan of that solo. Way too sloppy for my taste. It's like prehistoric Malmsteen. Just fast, but not very musical.

Yea Clapton had a bigass heroin addiction in the 70's. But now he's clean and better than ever.

Led Zeppelin II is very cool. Gives off a bluesy vibe to me. Probably my favorite Zeppelin, tied with III. Actually I like II better.

Anyone know aobut Page? I dunno much about Zeppelin I just always assumed they were heavily into the rock star life of drugs, sex, alcohol, drugs, rinse and repeat.

Yes, Page was heavily into heroin during 75-80. This may explain why the albums from that time weren't up to par. Excluding Physical Graffiti.

And he was into the dark arts!! :evil:

Slow thread today.

It's been really slow lately :(

But anyway I was listening to Aqualung and the song My God=Best. Rock. Flute. Ever.

Go talk about it on the Jethro Tull Thread
and that song is great along with Thick as a Brick

Ya Page was heavily into heroin in the late seventies. Actually, when Bonzo died Page said it kinda snapped him out of his heroin addiction for a while..although not completely. I despise heroin with all of my heart.

And "My God" is Jethro Tulls best song. That flute solo is their best, his singing is great (plus the choir dealy), not to mention the whole concept of the song...it blows my mind.

I never really payed attention to that song. I always like day dream when it gets to that part of the album, but the emotion behind that solo is amazing. Personally I think it's better than any guitar solo I've ever heard.

Same here, I lose alot of respect for musicians who do it.

Well, people say Clapton isn't as good as he was when he was on heroin...

He's just a puss[COLOR=White]y[/COLOR] now.

He has lost his edge....

[QUOTE=slowhand]Well, people say Clapton isn't as good as he was when he was on heroin...[/QUOTE]
Including me. You can't honestly say his clean music is better than his drug music?

Depends, really, on your taste in music. I know a friend who preffers Clapton's Tears in Heaven rather than anything from when he was with Cream.

I think he was better during his addiction years. Now, he's just a blues player, very B.B. King style...

Dont forget Nazareth..Nazareth is often overlooked..But albums like Rampant, Hair of The Dog, Razamanaz were killer

I will admit, that straight up blues music he plays now is kind of boring.
