[QUOTE=Nshah90]I am looking forward to buy a The Doors album... any suggestions as to a first album to buy besides a greatest hits?[/QUOTE]

I just have the best off the doors 2 disk set (most recent one). It has all of their best songs but i'd really like some other albums so I could hear more songs.

Umm I guess the classic rock abcs thing is dead :( unless...



Fleetwood Mac.

Today I bought...

The String Cheese Incident - Born on the Wrong Planet (Fabulous album and jam band, they perfected Bluegrass)

and

Bad Brains - S/t

^:lol: Good name.

btw i'm unbanneded :)

I know this doesn't quite fit in the Classic rock ideals but seeing as it's classic music and stems from rock 'n' roll, who here like myself is a big fan of Motown soul?

I like Otis Redding, kind of. But he's just Soul, not Motown

Motown is the root of popular music. It has played a huge roll in the history of music, and classic rock would not be the same without it. Motown will always be welcome in this thread :)

Genesis.

Soft parade and strange Days are good albums, strange days is probably better for a first album though.

Any of you have Free - Fire and Water?

I can't find that anywhere.

does the Hollies count?

Let's just say it does.

Iron Maiden (close enough).

poo on you Iggy pop!

Jethro tull
Jefferson airplane

take your pick

Cream is my favorite classic rock band

can beat lyrics such as

"....but the rainbow has a beard!"

Cream *drools* their song sra ejust completely mindblowingly amazingly good.

"twice upon a time in the valley of the tears the auctioneer is bidding on a box of fading years"

[QUOTE=Heritage21]If im not mistaken that is the other guitarist in Tenacious D correct?[/QUOTE]

No, it's a band, and I'm pretty sure Kyle Glass isn't in the band.

A big help was School of Rock. Immigrant song was really popular when that movie came out with my friends and such. I had been listening to classic rock for a while and when that movie came out EVERYONE wanted to either start a band or listen to some zep.

Random rock fact: what was the first movie led zeppelin ever let use their music ?(I don't think they normally do let them).

Dazed and Confused?

[QUOTE=badmoon349]Dazed and Confused?[/QUOTE]
Is their music even on that movie?

dunnno. I think so. Just saw it again 2 weeks ago.

wrong and wrong again

almost famous, the wonderfully beautiful song that's the way, that was the first movie to use thier music, this is so wierd i did the same thing my senior year of high school a few years back, hey guy who started this post

AEROSMITH, GO BUY THIER FIRST 5 ALBUMS, THEY ARE VERY VERY GOOD

Wrong
 

[QUOTE=Nshah90]h[COLOR=White]ell[/COLOR] yea Free Bird's massive solo! Skynrd were pioneers, they started Southern Rock... but they were still classic! BUT I don't think that they were the best classic rock band, but they were one of the best, at least. I personally think Zeppelin was the best classic rock band of all.[/QUOTE]
ALLMAN BROTHERS

What the hell are you talking about?

im more into the start of black sabbath to metallicas black album. That time period, 68 - 91

[QUOTE=burt reynolds]almost famous, the wonderfully beautiful song that's the way, that was the first movie to use thier music, [/QUOTE]


That's the answer I was looking fo, but I do beleive that's not the only song of theirs in the movie (when they're going into new yorkand they find out he's not a virgin it's playing misty mountain hop if I remember correctly).

That is why I do not beleive that dazed aand confused has any of their music in it.

[QUOTE=badmoon349]No, it's a band, and I'm pretty sure Kyle Glass isn't in the band.[/QUOTE]
Really? I could have swore that Kyle Glass appeared on one of their cd's.

Didn't they use some of it in The song remains the same?

[QUOTE=burt reynolds]ALLMAN BROTHERS[/QUOTE]

:thumb: Very good. We have a n00b who knows their ****. This is good, You have earned my respect.

[QUOTE=rock not roll]Didn't they use some of it in The song remains the same?[/QUOTE]
No, that was ed zeppelin stupid!
(I was actually going to say that as a joke too [with different wodring ofcourse])

i am a huge classic rock band and i do agree with you that there is a new found interest in classic bands . the public interest for classic rock will come and go with the changing fads but if your a real fan than your always a fan i guess
