Woodstock, sweet avatar, I knew who it was before you told. He looks like a gremlin. But Funk 49 rules on the Crossroads dvd.

Woodstock 01-21-2005 08:55 AM

Thanks, I did see him on the Crossroads festival. He's a real character.

I think he even tried to run for president in the 70's. His slogan was, "Free Gas For Everyone!"

Woodstock 01-21-2005 10:36 AM

Ok, what do you think was the greatest decade of music? For me, it would be 1965-1975. Every single band I love reached their peak at around this time. Especially the years 67, 68, 69, and 70. I really wish I was alive then.

Badmoon 01-21-2005 11:23 AM

Yeah, the 90's had a couple of good underground years too.

That's the same ten years I would pick.

1967-1977 (had to bump it up two extra years to get in Bowie's last great albums)

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]1967-1977 (had to bump it up two extra years to get in Bowie's last great albums)[/QUOTE]

I thought about that but then I decided I'd rather include the first two Who ablums, Revolver, Fresh Cream, etc...So I went with 65-75, or maybe 66-76.

Illmatic 01-21-2005 02:59 PM

Revolver and My Generation were tough cuts, but I want to extend some love to Bowie.

Although without a doubt the toughest cuts were Highway 61, Blonde on Blonde, and Bringing it All Back Home. Oh, the sacrifices I make for Bowie.

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 03:34 PM

From The Beatles - rubber soul (I don't know exactly when that was released) to ten years after that.

jpj 01-21-2005 03:37 PM

That'd be 65-75, that's probably my choice too.

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 03:39 PM

Yeah. Rock started going downhill after 75. And then it went into the 80s :eek:

rhcp_r_gods 01-21-2005 03:42 PM

isnt it bios considering classic rock,because rock bands from like 6 years ago that may be good may be arent classic rock because its only 6 years ago.

Illmatic 01-21-2005 03:43 PM

Huh?

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 03:44 PM

Indeed. They would be rock and roll. Not classic rock.

jpj 01-21-2005 03:45 PM

You have to look past the non making sense and the spelling mistakes.

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 03:49 PM

Don't feel bad. I'm a master of n00bzorz spek after all.

*Rush is really underrated.

jpj 01-21-2005 03:52 PM

Yes they are. One thing that gets to me is people say they don't like them, but they respect Peart for his skill. It's like they think he's the only talented member, do they not realize how awesome Geddy and Alex are?

Badmoon 01-21-2005 03:53 PM

^ I don't really like Rush, but I respect Neil Peart for his skill.

:thumb:

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 03:54 PM

Geddy and Alex are almost as skilled as Neil is.

JonG 01-21-2005 03:54 PM

Neil Peart in my view is really overrated..I personally like Geddy Lee's bass and Alex Lifeson's vocals..good power trio.

As for the person who listed the best albums of '65-'77, how can you say Led Zeppelin II wasn't better than III, that's a sin.

Illmatic 01-21-2005 03:56 PM

Rush is talented, but I really don't them.

On the other hand, they are a goldmine of unintentional comedy.

And [I]II[/I] strikes me as "meh", but [I]III[/I] is a gem.

jpj 01-21-2005 03:56 PM

[QUOTE=JonG]Neil Peart in my view is really overrated..I personally like Geddy Lee's bass and Alex Lifeson's vocals..good power trio.[/QUOTE]
Geddy sings all the time to my knowledge.

lunch998 01-21-2005 03:56 PM

Rush was very talented, but I don't like them that much. Jack Bruce>Geddy Lee in the "bassists/singers in a power trio" category.

Badmoon 01-21-2005 03:57 PM

Well, obviously almost doesn't cut it :angry:

Well, actuallu I don't really have any thoughts on Rush's music. I don't like it, but I don't hate it. As for the skill, I'd say they're all pretty good. I do believe that Geddy is a bit overrated, and Alex is a fool, but whatever.

Illmatic 01-21-2005 03:57 PM

Wow that rhcp_r_gods fag just de-repped me. Maybe I wouldn't have said anything if he managed to not be a rambly, incoherent idiot. What a dipsh[SIZE=2]i[/SIZE]t.

EDIT: LMAO. He carries so little relevence that he didn't even take any of my rep points away. The joke's on you, pal.

[QUOTE=lunch998]Rush was very talented, but I don't like them that much. Jack Bruce>Geddy Lee in the "bassists/singers in a power trio" category.[/QUOTE]
I don't know, I may have to ponder over that one for awhile

Illmatic 01-21-2005 03:59 PM

Bruce is better. Much better.

BludgeonySteve 01-21-2005 04:04 PM

Why's how good Jack Bruce is relevant to any of this? Nobody said that Geddy was the best bass player or singer.
