i've never heard anything by them. is their name misleading or do they play blues?

Badmoon 12-01-2004 10:40 PM

They are a Jam Band (Quite popular actually), and they play a heavy form of Blues.

thickasabrick 12-01-2004 10:41 PM

ya i've heard of them alot (maybe on here) i think i may have one of their records...allow me to go check. this may take a while.

edit- no i dont, i must be thinking of another band.

have you ever listened to Electric Flag? I have one of their albums, never listened to it, and it looks quite psychadelic. I'm just wondering if they are any good? i have a very long list of records i am going through and i don't have time to listen to every single one, so im trying to find good ones.

I've heard of them, but I don't remember anything by them. I've heard they're good as far as the blues go.

ya i always assumed they were more blues.

hey wait...what did you mean by "good as far as the blues go?" that sounds like an insult to me.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]just to catch up...

i'ts probably too late, but from L.A. woman i would choose Riders on the Storm, LA Woman, Hyacinth House and Roadhouse Blues.[/QUOTE]

I thought I seid that

[QUOTE=Schyma000]I thought I seid that[/QUOTE]

well those are the best songs so i wouldn't be suprised.

although i like the nice bass beat on WASP (Texas Radio and the Big Beat) or whatever its called.

[QUOTE=irishslappop]oh my god that guy rules on the harmonica, he's amazing. :thumb:[/QUOTE]

I like how he treats the harmonica like a real instrument. Only a few other people (Bob Dylan, Robert Plant on a few Zep songs) do that.

thickasabrick 12-02-2004 10:23 AM

i've never heard him play harmonica. i've heard a lot better players than bob dylan and especially robert plant though. bob dylan is probably my favourite though, just because i like his music the most (he isn't the best harmonica player). i never even though robert plant as a harmonica player in any sense. he's probably more of a tambourine player than a harmonica player.

and i taught one of my students how to play mr tambourine man last night...the student had never heard of bob dylan.

Plant played the harmonica intro on When The Levee Breaks and again on a song from Houses Of The Holy (I forget which one, I need to buy that **** album).

Houses Of The Holy is the album.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]Houses Of The Holy is the album.[/QUOTE]

Umm, yeah, thanks, I knew that. I'm trying to think of which SONG on that album.

He is definitley better than anyone you have ever heard. And Blues Traveler aren't strait up Blues. If that was true, I probably wouldn't like them. They an occasional poppy version of it, but mostly a fast loud version of it.

*sick today*

Oh, I recognize him, he was in the Blues Brothers 2000. They did a very good performance. I'll check them out.

magicbus 12-02-2004 02:16 PM

I'm happy to say that I knew that was John Popper before Badmoon said it. :thumb: Makes me feel good.

Thanks to everyone who likes my avatar.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]What do you want, any genre or band?[/QUOTE]
Oh, I thought we were assuming Blues Traveler. Do you have an online list?

Badmoon 12-02-2004 03:10 PM

Just name any band you want something from. I may have it.

People ....Roadhouse Blues is on Morrison Hotel not L.A. Woman.

Badmoon 12-02-2004 03:14 PM

Nope, I only have Abraxas. Just put a list of bands, and I'll see which I can give you.

Bob Dylan-Blood On The Tracks, I'm pretty sure you have that.
