Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.
I listened to Trower songs: Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....
Then I pulled out "Gamma". I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....
Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?
Zeppelin kicks ass! Although it's been a while since playing any... going through a phase I reckon. Anyhoo today it's been Dokken, Back for the Attack. Bon Jovi, Slippery When Wet. Van Halen, 5150. All LPS until Tuesday when then CDP returns....
I caught the AXSTV Santana show also. Good to see Neil Schon playing again. That channel has some good programming on occasion. There is a Bob Dylan: 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration tonight. I also like to catch Live at Daryl's House on MTVL (I have Time Warner Cable, ch. 945). He is a Legend, very professional, his band is tight they have some great guests. Todd Rundgren was pretty cool. The audio is pretty good also.
radfrad,
Big Zepplin fan here! I recall hearing Stairs to Heaven on 8 track!
Led Zepplin. 1V. LP . Have had this album from about late 70's
Led Zeppelin cleared of plagiarism in Stairway case So I dropped the needle on my Antique Album Led Zep is said to have made an estimated 500 million in the last 45 years from the song
According to Wikipedia, Glenn Hughes sings lead vocals on the final verse of "Dreamer" on Tommy's Teaser. But due to contractual reasons, was not credited.
The Blasters "Live at the venue London" Morrissey "Maladjusted" Liz Phair "Exile In Guyville" Dire Straits "Making Movies" Grateful Dead "Workingman's Dead" Magnolia Electric Co. "Fading Trails" Radiohead "Kid A"
I posted this song on 6/20 but I just pulled it up again. It's by Steve Wilson. Very talented. Played with Porcupine Trees, Yes,Tull, King Crimson, Fish, XTC... I love the "driving" bass line in this song. It features Nick Beggs, some might know him from his big hair 80's days with the band Kagagoogoo. Solid performance all around.
+2 on Collective Soul. Their CD's are recorded well also. Yes, Going for the one. 1977 features the return of Rick Wakeman. Hawkwind, In search of space, (Space rock, prog rock) This one is not everybody's cup of tea, Howerver it does feature Lemmy on bass.... Gennsis, S/T. Led Zepplin IV, More progressive rock. "Stairway to Heaven" probably the first song to be played on the radio longer than 4 min, right?!
Boys Club. Live From California 2 CD set Deffinately some "Symphonic Rock" with Keith Emerson in there Down right Emerson Lake & Palmer sounding some tracts Some Deep Purple sounding tracts also
With Glen Hughes vocals , and Marc Bonilla guitar to the mix, you get an enjoyable ,well recorded ,listening experience.
faster61woman, Check out some of your postings. I really enjoyed Jimmy D. Lang. Starflyer is an easy listen. Howe Gelb and Neko Case are very good recordings, just not something that I would normally listen too.
radfrad, I pulled up DP and "Hush" you referenced. It's great. Lots of energy on that whole recording. As far a them being in the Guinness Book for being the loudest, I would have to challenge that. That may be the official record, however I personally witnessed Wendy O Williams and the Plasmatics live at Bogarts in Cincinnati, OH. Literally holding my hands over my ears to pass the stage to go to the restroom. It was blistering. BTW, she used a chainsaw to remove the head from a Boy George manikin!
Prog-rocker Steve Wilson (Porcupine Tree), Luminol....This song is 12:00 long, it's recorded very very well. I really like the driving bass and drums on this one. keyboards are frantic. It rocks!
Deep Purple. Concerto For Group and Orchestra CD 3 disc set Strange arrangement for the group that is in the "Guniness Book" as being the loudest group ever! . Has The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra with them
About half the songs are classical, not a big fan of that, BUT. has has a great Awesome Live Version of the song. "HUSH" worthy the CD set for that song alone
L.A. Blues Authority V. CD Ambrosia, Life beyond L.A. Glenn Hughes, The way it it. I feel it's his best. But he has soooo much its difficult. Dead Soul Tribe, song "Some things you can't return". (Haunting!) Kingdom Come, song "Twilight Cruiser". Trapeze, Medeusa............ radfrad, Glenn Hughes is great on this one.
Last night I assembled our indoor/outdoor A/V system on the patio. Friends, family and neighbors were invited. We listened to a bunch of CDS' to and then at dark we watched Jurassic World. I know this isn't an A/V site so go easy on me. But I've got quite a cool little setup on the cheap. Good times.
