[QUOTE=HeavyRiva]George Thorogood is quite enjoyable, except for fanboys like Bartender who only like Bad To The Bone. :)

How's things, all?[/QUOTE]
My dad used to play George in the car all the time.:cool:

Hey, there is already a review of Tommy. I was thinking about doing it but it was done awhile ago.

BludgeonySteve 01-26-2005 04:41 PM

Hmm, well as long as there is one, it's all coo.

It's not very good, but there is one.

Woodstock 01-26-2005 04:43 PM

Still no Booker T. & The MG's CD yet. I'm getting ticked.

Lunch, how do you like QMS s/t?

Did you order it or are you looking for it in a store?

Woodstock 01-26-2005 04:46 PM

I ordered it over a week ago. It should've been here 2 days ago.

I like it. Pretty much like you said, different from Happy Trails but still good.

I bought the actual studio version of Tommy today, along with the Doors s/t.

As Woodstock said, it's alittle more "poppy" then Happy Trials. The instrumentals are still excellent.

Hello, everyone. For a computer class I'm taking, we have to make a web page. I wanted to do one on a classic rock band. I've narrowed it down to The Beatles, The Doors, or Cream. Which do you think I should do?

PinkFreud 01-26-2005 05:22 PM

cream, lesser known to normal, non musicians yet enormously talented. most people know the beatles and the doors.

jpj 01-26-2005 05:37 PM

I'd do Cream.

Woodstock 01-26-2005 05:39 PM

Yeah, do Cream.

The beatles.

Thanks for helping me decide (I am a very indecisive person).

xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx 01-26-2005 06:06 PM

Sorry to double post, but I have a question. In Sunshine Of Your Love, it sounds like there are two guitars to me. I know Clapton was the only guitarist in Cream, so how did they get it to sound like that?

clown_phobia 01-26-2005 06:08 PM

[QUOTE=xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx]Thanks for helping me decide (I am a very indecisive person).[/QUOTE]

Dubbing.

xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx 01-26-2005 06:16 PM

[QUOTE=clown_phobia]which have you decided on?[/QUOTE]

I think I'm going with Cream. I know the most about The Beatles out of those three, but I think it's a good idea to raise awareness of Cream. Plus, I don't want to be thought of as a suck-up (my computer teacher is a Beatles fan, too).


Dubbing...Now I feel stupid. I should have known that. :upset:

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 06:16 PM

dubbing is very popular in classic rock, i do it alot when recording myself, but some solos have up to 4 guitars overdubbed...and wether their playing the same thing over eachother, it just gives it that edge.

and to who asked to do the report on, go with the beatles. They have so much more history to them and really set the path for all music, not by talent, but by inspiration (<- good intro statement :lol: ) but people usually dont give them a chance since they are very old, music is pretty slow, and experimentation is usually too much for a modern listener to take

Lucky0889 01-26-2005 06:19 PM

In any live version of Sunshine of your love there is one guitar..

psh. the beatles didnt lack talent by any stretch of the mind.

magicbus 01-26-2005 06:22 PM

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Well, I'm not saying he's not fantastic (He is unbelievably good, and posses talents that other guitarist don't have), but I was playing "Power To Love" on my friends Guitarport (I believe that's its name) and everything was beautifully written, but it wasn't as difficult as many make it out to be. And I'm not trying to say I'm a great guitarist, but I'm sure some of you feel that way.[/QUOTE]

Yea I know what you mean. Aside from some obscure note choices, Jimi's music isn't THAT hard. There are a few challenging parts, but it can be easy too. Good thing it stills rules.

PinkFreud 01-26-2005 06:24 PM

[QUOTE=magicbus]Yea I know what you mean. Aside from some obscure note choices, Jimi's music isn't THAT hard. There are a few challenging parts, but it can be easy too. Good thing it stills rules.[/QUOTE]

yeah its fairly easy when played straight forward but it takes a pretty good player to nail down all the little nuances jimi played during his rythym parts and solos. many people write him off as mainly inspiration but what gets lost is that some of his stuff is pretty hard. little wing for example is somewhat complex.

edit: and the true test is whether players who feel his music is easy could write something on the same level as little wing, voodoo chile etc.

The Beatles might have a little too much history. I'm not sure how long I have to make this web page.

That was a pretty good intro statement, by the way. :lol:

BludgeonySteve 01-26-2005 06:30 PM

Hehe, The Beatles would be too long. Do something like The Doors. They weren't together very long.

Distant Echoes 01-26-2005 06:31 PM

My second choice would be the doors...if you pick cream, then their may be too much focus on eric clapton, when that was were the majority of their popularity and sound came from.

PinkFreud 01-26-2005 06:33 PM

[QUOTE=Distant Echoes]My second choice would be the doors...if you pick cream, then their may be too much focus on eric clapton, when that was were the majority of their popularity and sound came from.[/QUOTE]

yeah but thats a good reason to do cream. he could elaborate more on bruce and baker. especially since theyre excellent musicianfs themselves. and especially because bruce wrote most of their originals with pete brown. itd be a good time to even the playing field between the three of them.

magicbus 01-26-2005 06:45 PM

And Bruce basically played ever instrument that wasn't guitar or drums.

BludgeonySteve 01-26-2005 06:47 PM

[QUOTE=magicbus]And Bruce basically played ever instrument that wasn't guitar or drums.[/QUOTE]
Yep, he was the bass player. ;)


*he probably played more instruments on their songs. List plzkxthx?
