I think Deep Purple is great live.. but they never played Lazy at the concert I went to

Leper 04-29-2005 01:43 AM

ahh i guess when you've got such a wide open library of songs as deep purple does, you're gonna alternate and some songs will be left off. Metallica didn't play for whom the bell tolls when i saw them in concert...i was crushed lol.

Hahaha I would be too. When they tour, do they play lots of new ****? Because, I'd want to see them if they didn't.

Did you get/like those Johnny Winter songs I posted for you?

I was just wondering because you haven't commented and I thought you might have not seen them.

I like the Stones now, but I still don't like The Who....

I was never big with The Who, Sure, they're great musicians, but their music kinda bores me.

TheDMV 04-29-2005 03:50 PM

I'm the opposite. I have always been more of a Who fan, never really got into the Stones. I think They announced there farewell tour though and I REAAALLY want ot go.

[QUOTE=Woodstock]I was never big with The Who, Sure, they're great musicians, but their music kinda bores me.[/QUOTE]

Same thing happens to me. Never liked the Who, I tried, but I just couldn't.

Pete Townshend couldn't really get a hold on me with his guitar playing. Sure, he has some great songs, and some great classic ([i]My Generation[/i]), but at the same time... I find them boring.

Woodstock 04-29-2005 03:58 PM

He's more of a guitar God through his compositions compared to his actual guitar playing. Which is ok with me.

Illmatic 04-29-2005 04:00 PM

Have you noticed that most Led Zeppelin fans use the same tired reason for their assertions that Led Zeppelin is one of the greatest bands ever:

"Jimmy Page is the best guitarist ever, John Bonham is the best drummer ever, Robert Plant is the best vocalist ever, and John Paul Jones was a great bassist"

Woodstock 04-29-2005 04:02 PM

Yep, it's #1 on the n00b arguement list.

TheDMV 04-29-2005 04:06 PM

Led Zeppelin does get a lot of credit that they perhaps don't deserve due to Stairway, but I can respect their riffs. They have apparently stolen so much music, it's hard to give them credibility anymore.

thickasabrick 04-29-2005 05:00 PM

Well I'm not trying to start an argument...but each of the members Led Zeppelin were great at their respective instruments. Not the best, but you can't say any of them aren't great. I don't think they were the "best" band ever, but they are definitely a good band (in my opinion).

I just got Wheels on Fire on vinyl for 10 bucks.

I never said they weren't, just that for most people it is their only argument for Led Zeppelin being great.

You need both.

The Who>>>>>Stones.

TheDMV 04-29-2005 05:18 PM

^ True enough. They also seem to mentoin Stairway to Heaven a lot, maybe not on here but people at my school overrate Stariway like it was there jobs.

EDIT: to Illmatic.

I agree with you 100%. They're great, but there's a bunch of other classic rock bands than them I'd rather listen to.

Illmatic 04-29-2005 05:28 PM

I like the Stones a lot :angry:

Poor JPJ. He is always underrated and overshadowed. None of them are the best ever at what they did, but JPJ is imho the consummate musician in led zeppelin, considering that he contributed so brilliantly on bass, mandolin, and organ.

[/QUOTE]

I also used ot think that JPJ was underrated because he was the quiet one and the bassist. He is probably one of the more underrated musicians, but if you go to certain bass forums, he is kind of over rated. I have trouble finding where I stand on this issue. There seems to be a middle ground but I just can't find it.:upset:

lunch998 04-29-2005 05:31 PM

I didn't say the Stones were bad, just that The Who are amazing.

[QUOTE=TheDMV]:amaze:

I actually haven't listened to it yet, but I've heard most of the songs already so I have a good idea of how great it is (very). I've got Disraeli Gears and The Best of Cream on vinyl..but those are the only ones I have.

What other albums does Cream have that's worth getting? They had a lot of Cream records there, but most of them just seemed to be Best of type ones.

My feeling is he is overrated just as a bass player, but as an all-around musician he is underrated.

TheDMV 04-29-2005 05:34 PM

Yeah, the Stones are good, but some of their songs just aren't as good. From what I've heard on the radio, they seem inconsistent ot my musicl tastes. I prefer the who, especially because of Entwhistle, and Moon. Really all of them for that matter. They had such contrating personalities but it didn't stop them from making AMAZING music.

Fresh Cream definitely, then maybe Goodbye or Live Cream Volumes 1/2. The big three are Fresh Cream, Disraeli Gears, and Wheels of Fire.

I believe they only released two other studio albums. Their first, Fresh Cream, and their last, Goodbye.

Thanks. I'm not sure if I saw Fresh Cream there...but they had a lot of albums with the word Cream in it so I'm not sure.

I agree with what JPJ said about JPJ (this is getting confusing) being underrated as an all around musician. I still love his bass playing though. He's one of my favourite bassists.

Where are you getting these cheap vinyls?

Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out, Exile on Main St. = practically perfect albums

[QUOTE=TheDMV]Where are you getting these cheap vinyls?[/QUOTE]
I usually go to antique stores or traveling record shows for them. I also seem to find a lot of rare albums on CD there.

I feel like posting something...

jpj 04-29-2005 05:43 PM

At CD Warehouse (used CD store, I think it's a national chain) they had a bunch of cool vinyl's for like $6.

Tommy, Who's Next, Quadrophenia, Live at Leeds, The Who Sings My Generation, The Who Sell Out.

thickasabrick 04-29-2005 05:45 PM

We've got a store called Vintage Vinyl here...it's a music store (tons of vinyl, cd's, cassettes, also bandshirts and basically anything relating to music) and it's also a headshop (anything to do with weed).

I spend most of my Saturdays there, for some reason laws don't really exist in there. The employees are usually all smoking weed.
