Crap I forgot.....



CCR


how can I forget them???? Freakin awesome!!!


See I can go on and on for days

yes. we know.

And still not name an album...

Pick one. I wasn't specific on purpose.

I'd pick one, but the chili peppers sucked even when they were good.

Take a nice beat.
Add a term from California.
Jump around with a sock on your richard.

Repeat.

On THIS we agree

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars-David Bowie

Come on man

The Chili Peppers have a sound all their own. Something uncommon today and back when they got big.

You don't have to like them, but musically they are great.

A lot of people liked Tupac too.... 😟

I don't have any RHCP albums, but they have a lot of songs I really like.

Breaking the girl, Californication, Dani California, Scar Tissue, Snow (hey oh), by the way, otherside...

pretty sure Axl wrote those songs... 😟

No accounting for taste. 🌫

Again, "We've only known each other 3 weeks and 4 days, but it seems like 9 weeks and 5 days."🇨🇮

if six was nine...

25 or 6 to 4?

Rush Revisited:
Had an extra long drive home last night and I put Spotify to work.
Brought up all the Rush albums and had another listen.

Musically, they're perhaps even better than I give them credit for.
Some good originality, even early on.
Maybe it's the sheer volume of work, but their music does get somewhat redundant. And I often find the first adjective that comes to mind is "fast", rather than "good".
So in smaller doses, I'd rank them pretty high.

But (and this is important) I can't get past that awful, migraine inducing, off-key falsetto that is inexplicably passed off as singing.
Rock and Roll doesn't require "good" voices.
Consider Dylan, David Lee Roth, and Joe Walsh as exhibit 1A through C.

But it shouldn't be painfully shrill. Song after song.
There's a reason that bands like The Who only used purposeful feedback on a few songs.
Rush should have paid attention.

I like the digital underground

Axl is shrill

46 and 2.

Tool. They don't have an album that stands out, but plenty of good songs, IMO.

I'm not sure there's a band that's been mentioned yet that I'd even consider having the greatest rock album. This should be the greatest classic/old pop music thread. Carry on.
