When I saw John Mayer, he does a blues set, and he shredded on crossroads. Me and my buddy were like, WTF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And his bass lines are incredibly complex and difficult. But when I listen....it just doesn't sound good (which is kind of odd considering my love of Tom Waits). I play a cherry red Peavey; was handed down from my uncle. I found switching to flats the greatest thing I ever did, I love the heavy thud it gives off. Always played rounds. Want thud, try a heavy pick like Roger Glover used on Machinehead. Pastorius is an acquired taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is when they thought they were the Beastie Boys. We threw the promo cassette singles back on the stage like weapons. https://www.spokesman.com/stories/1995/aug/18/naughty-by-nature-lives-up-to-name/?amp-content=amp That is amazing because they were definitely unknown by almost everyone back then. Jimmy Pop’s sister graduated high school with me, so I figured back then nobody knew who they were. One Fierce Beer Coaster is by far my favorite album by them. The looks I get from anyone under 30 in my car when any song from that album comes on is priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc S. Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 How far afield do you wanna go? Classic Rock bands ( 70s etc) have so many great musicians, technical artists and just plain RocknRoll Monsters. Guys from Bands became studio artists, Producers stuck their noses in, things evolved. Just like the Blog to try and rate them.... Why I love this place, put a value on peoples tastes.... The Grunge thing never took off with me, respect the effort, not my cup of tea. I submit Walt Becker and Donald Fagen as stellar songwriters, Steely Dan was prolific. Some great styling there. Dave Mason, "Can't Stop the Worryin", sweet progression, haunting lyrics. Today, anybody listen to Candy Dulfer? That girl beats on a Sax like it owes her money. "Sax a Go Go". YouTube it. For a Universal language, Music is awfully personal for so many., me included. I have my tastes and my favorites but there is so much out there to be discovered, people bangin out crap and others putting heart and soul into every bar. ps. Try out The Vaughn Brothers. Thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Certified unit's which I'd never heard of til now, has ac/DC at 4. On the top 50,the freaking backstreet boys are on the list twice and pearl jam and Kenny G are both on it once Led Zeppelin is on it 3 times.

Elliot Randall’s solo on Reelin in the Years is epic I have a revised version with a serious downbeat, found it online. Awesome departure from the commercial version.

Alphagrand Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 The best Steely Dan guitar solo is Larry Carlton’s from Kid Charlemagne; the outro is pretty damn good too. He has done some fantastic session work, and his performance of Room 335 with Lee Ritenour is a must-listen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First dog, pictured with the cat above was Donovan, second dog, a little yorkie, Mia, the cat above, Shady, my great Dane, ESPeN, we fostered a St Bernard, his name was Buhner, and our current cat is named Gatti. The only exception was a dog named Harley we took in from my wifes boss at the time. 8 hours ago, justrelax said: The last several were presidential. We've had a James (there were six presidents named James), a Harry, a Quincy, an Abigail (wife of a president and mother of another), a Benjamin... All four of our dogs since 2009 were rescues, so they came with their names ... Rascal, Bandit, Dazzle and Whitney. Our rescue in 1997 (the one in my avatar) came with no name and we named her Cally after the flower Calla Lily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
