The James Gang - Funk #49

[I've Been Going to the...MOOOOvies]

American Gangster!! BRILLIANT!!! Crowe and Washington are just soo amazing.

Crowe's American 'accent' still bothers me....

[How The West Was Won Vs The Song Remains The Same OST]

Well, as technically TSRTS is a soundtrack and not a 'live album' per say, I'd have to go with HTWWW... Although, I prefer the MSG shows in their entirety..

[Purple/Rainbow/Blackmore etc]

Burn is a great album and Burn itself is my fave Purple riff !! and You fool know One is so catchy !!

I love both Burn and Stormbringer!

[I've Been Going to the...MOOOOvies]

I saw American Gangster last... and Black Sheep the week before!

Enjoyed both I have to say! Pleasantly surprised!

Montrose - I Got The Fire

[The Black Sabbath Thread]

I really don't think it's because we associate his voice with it. Today it's been so many incarnations of Sabbath, so, at least the new crowd of Sabbath fans (80's and forward), has probably heard the Dio line-up as much as the Ozzy line-up.

Even I, who grew up in the Heaven & Hell and Born Again-era, prefered the Dio line-up at the time.

But no matter how you see it, IMHO, it's the first line-up which probably has the most personal and uniqe sound, much because of Ozzy's voice I think, and that has a great deal to do why they got so popular in the first place. Today, I think Sabbath was best with Ozzy. It's all a matter of taste.

I agree for the most part... I was just posing a different angle on the discussion.

Ah, 27, the year of the dead rockstar! Great pic by the way mate.

Cheers mate! (Yeah, i'll be glad when I turn 28.. )

[Post A Picture Of Yourself!]

Well you're welcome! How old are you? And is Jim your real name?

I'm 27 and yes, it's my real name.. (I was thinking of mentioning before that there aren't any rockstar associations.. As you mentioned Morrison )

[The Black Sabbath Thread]

Ozzy may not be a technically great singer, but his voice was perfect for the early Sabbath material.

Although I agree to some degree... I also think that Ozzy's vocal sounds 'perfect' with the earlier Sabbath material merely because that's the voice we naturally associate with it..

[Post A Picture Of Yourself!]

WOW! You're handsome! You look like Jim Morrison!

That's very kind of you to say!

Just a little moody b&w of moi..

[THE FRANK ZAPPA THREAD!]

Why does it hurt when I pee?

[Purple/Rainbow/Blackmore etc]

Big Purple/Rainbow/Blackmore fan here... Always loved Ritchie's playing. Loved how he was an absolute maniac on stage too! (Cali Jam 74?)

I love both MKII & MKIII Purple equally... Love the balls-to-the-wall hard rocking of MKII and the Looser, funkier grooves of MKIII..

Rainbow too... At least while Dio was still there..

Soundgarden - Slaves & Bulldozers

[The Black Sabbath Thread]

Sabbath are definitely one of my favourite bands... I used to only like the Ozzy years... However, I now like the Dio just as much... Nothing else you can really say in a thread like this, so...
