Actually wait, I would like to correct my last post, but I figured it would be better to make a new post than to edit my last one...

Hendrix did not want to just play blues, it was the opposite...i'm not sure why i said that...Hendrix wanted to expand to more than the blues and it was John Hammond Jr who wanted him to stick to blues. I was wrong in my earlier post.

I love "Bellbottom Blues" but it doesn't sound too bluesy. (Derek & Dominos)

I like Clapton's drug influenced music. Disraeli Gears>Solo Career.

The Clapton Blues stuff is awesome. His tribute to Robert Johnson [I]Me and Mr. Johnson[/I] is really good ;).

Everything he ever did with Cream>solo career.

BludgeonySteve 01-10-2005 08:58 PM

Probably so. He uses a hell of a lot of Cream/Derek And The Dominoes (actually just Layla) in his concerts.

thickasabrick 01-10-2005 09:04 PM

I like his work in Cream the best.

magicbus 01-10-2005 09:05 PM

Please kids. Blues is Clapton's main influence in any and all of his music, its only respectable of him to do covers of Robert Johnson's music, who was his biggest influence. I love the blues, and I think Clapton does it wonderfully. Just cause it doesn't "rock", doesn't mean it doesn't rock. I will always have respect for anything Clapton does, because you know he'll never do something crappy.

And I don't want to get off the topic of Clapton in all his greatness, but I listened to My God last night and it was really sweet. I really loved the flute solo.

Badmoon 01-10-2005 09:23 PM

[QUOTE]Badmoon what's your favourite Grateful Dead song of all time?[/QUOTE]

Probably "Sugar Magnolia".

thickasabrick 01-10-2005 09:25 PM

I like Sugar Magnolia as well...I think you recommended it to me, i'm not sure though.

I like it best when they use harmony in the vocals.

KingOfSka 01-10-2005 09:39 PM

magicbus 01-10-2005 09:42 PM

I would be one of the teenagers that love classic rock.........ACDC, Led Zeppelin, the stones, jimi, bad company, the doors,
GOOD CHARLOTTE DOES SUCK!!

Illmatic 01-10-2005 09:58 PM

Any opinions on Mott the Hoople?

"All the Young Dudes" is a good tune, and I want to know if I should check them out further.

KingOfSka 01-10-2005 10:00 PM

sorry if anybody mentioned this before, but somebody is making a movie about Jimi Hendrix, and Jimi might be played by Andre 3000 from Outkast, but they cant get the rights for any Hendrix songs to be played in the movie

Johnny B. Good 01-10-2005 10:01 PM

If you like like Def Leppard you should like them, they're supposed to be very influential on Def Leppard

I like that song :). However, that is all I have heard.

BillCosby 01-10-2005 10:01 PM

[QUOTE=StuckPunk]and Jimi might be played by Andre 3000 from Outkast, [/QUOTE]


That would be awesome.

Illmatic 01-10-2005 10:01 PM

Well, glam rock was a big influence on hair metal overall, but the genres don't sound that much alike (compare T.Rex to Poison, for instance)

Illmatic 01-10-2005 10:02 PM

I think Dre could pull of a convincing Hendrix.

Johnny B. Good 01-10-2005 10:04 PM

bur Andre looks just like him except without the fro

Badmoon 01-10-2005 10:06 PM

:lol:

I'm more interested in the upcoming Johnny Cash movie. I think Joaquein Phoenix.

BludgeonySteve 01-10-2005 10:21 PM

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Probably "Sugar Magnolia".[/QUOTE]

:thumb:. That's one hell of a song.

People need to stop quoting my **** first page posts :angry:


[QUOTE=Johnny B. Good]bur Andre looks just like him except without the fro[/QUOTE]

He could easily grow one :). Man, he's a good singer, if there was a singing part, he could do that.

*Random*Jimi is a very underrated singer

he is but people are probably to stunned by his guitar work to care about his voacals

What did you guys think of the Neil Young movie? My dad rented it last night.

Creedence Clearwater 01-11-2005 06:07 AM

Aaarhh, it the wrong time of the day and no one is there.

Spectrum 01-11-2005 08:55 AM

Yeah, Creedence, I hate it when I'm on when nobody else is...

...like now...

And now for something completely different.

I think a Hendrix movie could be good. It's something I personally might see.

And now for something else completely different.

I haven't seen the band Yes mentioned much around here, at least not that I've seen. And I've been on a bit of a Yes kick lately, as I recently got the 35th Anniversary Ultimate Yes CD set. SO GOOD!

What are other opinions of this crazy art-rock band?

Woodstock 01-11-2005 09:12 AM

I wouldn't want to see a Hendrix movie without his songs. That would be pretty idiotic. I'm glad that Al still has respect for his dead son's music.
