Rock albums that sound good on your system?


Often, you put in a rock album into your S$10,000 system and the music, though enjoyable, just sounds harsh, grating, boomy and forward. Aside from several of my Pink Floyd albums, the rest of my rock CDs just sound bad. Are there any good rock recordings out there?

Tool is some of my favorite music and some of the best recorded hard rock going, IMO. I listen to a lot of rock on my system and like the way it sounds on most stuff. I wish it was all as well recorded as Tool, Pink Floyd, Creed, etc. Days of the New, Tragically Hip, Counting Crows, Radiohead, Dream Theater - I like their recording quality. Plenty of great female vocalists with rock-ish background. -Kirk

Answer to Easy_e:
Snuggle up with your favorite woman, turn the lights down low, play any one of those 3 Linda Ronstadt LPs - and you'll find out what "Rock & Roll" really means. :-)

The term "Rock & Roll" referred to that exactly in it's early days Egoss, and good point.

Ever listened to the lyrics of the old "60 Minute Man" cut from Minit records, released in 1961?

"I can rock-um, roll-em all night long,.....I'm a 60 minute man."

I don't think he's talking about dancing.
