  1. If you had to pick a favorite song of Dylan over the years, what would it be? Mine would be perhaps, "Stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again".
  2. Do you know how old Dylan is now? I knew he was in town here a couple of years ago. It was kind of a secret. But Weese (the guy that was fired and there was a thread about his talk radio show) told me he was at the Woodcliffe. The best and fanciest place in town just outside of Rochester NY. Im not sure but he may have had a gig at Darien lake-where Tom Petty will be soon.
  3. I agree totally. Their material in the 70s was the best by far.
  4. Thanks Joel. Well my wife and her daughter always wanted to go to Nashville. If we ever get there we could meet for a drink,
  5. Mama Kin is good-dont you think? I like Get your Wings the best. Like Toys too. Think Rocks is average.
  6. Gee, sounds like something Ive heard before. You are correct sir. But when someone tells me Presence is better than Led Zeppelin IV it makes my blood boil!!
  7. Im really tempted to go see Tom Petty at Darien Lake.
  8. Did they play Train Kept a Rollin? Perry is a great guitarist. Never got enough credit. As for the other poster before you, dont know how anyone can pick Rocks (which I owned along with first 3) over the first album (Dream On) or Get Your Wings. Good album, but I dont think even close to Get your Wings.
  9. There first three albums were by far the best. Get your Wings (Train Kepta Rollin) is my fav. But Dream On and Mama Kin are classics. Toys in the Attic I would rate as third best of all time by them. I saw them 3 times back in the day. Like the Rolling Stones they long overstayed their welcome in my opinion. Dragged on a carreer with material that was sub par to their ealier great stuff.
  10. Nice pictures. You look like sensible people. How can you like Prince? I wish I could go back to Toronto, to go to Eaton Center, but your government doesnt want us americans in the country anymore. Im sick of being treated like a criminal at the border..
  11. Cant think of anyone else that implemented the flute the way he did into rock n roll. Of course the sound has been imitated through keyboard on songs, but he really kicked ass on it. I saw them back in their prime and they were great. Aqualung is one of the all time classics. I have no Tull albums now. Had their vinyl-need to get some burned on disc. I think I had a greatest hits album way back. Had songs like Skating Away and Bungle in the Jumgle as well as the classic Aqualung. They made their impact in Rock n Roll thats for sure.
  12. But then again look what some of these nobody bands are charging. Some of these bands that are not anywhere close to the Eagles are charging too much. Cant wait to see what a Led Zeppelin ticket will cost me when they hit the States. (I am a believer that they will). Im sure the cheap seats will be $150 and the good ones $250 or more. And they will get it in a heartbeat. I have heard that the Eagles are touring this summer. dont know for sure. I guess Ill put you on the list of not attending. Perhaps Henley is greedy but so is Pink Floyd while we are on the subject. I dont think it is right, but I still think Henley is a great talent-great singer. Also dont like the shit they pulled on Don Felder-was not a good move.
  13. I certainly think the Eagles are a great band. They have proved that and are big whether you want to admit it or not. You dont like them fine. I dont like Elvis and many of the other bands, some of which ive never heard of on your list. But their songs are big hits whether you want to admit it or not. And they had little trouble getting the $100 a ticket. In fact I think it was $175 for the best seats in Buffalo where I saw them last in 03.
  14. Very pretty. How does one put these pics on? Do you have to have a scanner???
  15. Not seeing another nasty fight between Dalihenrix and the two eletro members.
  16. Someone please pass me the Doll Meat.
  17. Lavigne with cotton balls in my ears and a bushnell telescope and upskirt camera devices.
  18. Leddy I was a big fan of theirs in the day. Machine Head may have been the first true rock album I bought with my own money. Had the old greatest hits album Purple Passages. I just dont think they progressed after a certain time though. and Blackmore in my opinion, though good, not ini the same league as Jimmy Page. Not even close. Jon Lord was great and truly underated. I say he is better than Wakeman but not as good as Emerson by any means. But in fairness to this band who you english folks seem to hold in high esteem just like Queen (which I dont understand at all0 I may have missed out on some of their material. Have heard "made in Japan" but Ii didnt have the same love for them I did for Zeppeliin. Then again I could say that about any band.
  19. I guess it depends on your definition of what a musician is. If you consider someone that can sing but has no musical knowledge of playiing an instrument, readinig or writing music, or understanding theory a musician thats fine by me. But if you are just going to play air guitar like Elvis did, just held it and didnt really play most of the time, then NO I dont consider him a musician as far as a player. Singing and playing an instrument are two differant things. It takes alot more knowledge musically to do what Page does for example as compared to what Plant does.
  20. Someone at a used sterio shop (this guy saw Zepp at Frankfurt in 70 and Rochester NY around 69 or 70-only time they were ever here) showed me a copy of BBC sessions. I cant remember if I had this or How the West Was Won. Is the live version of Heartbreaker on both? does anyone know? If yes, is it the same one? If no which is better?
  21. Thanks for sticking up for the Stones. He obviously doesnt like them and I cant fucking stand Elvis. Elvis sucks as a musician in my book. He was a great entertainer, and of course had the look that made him popular. But he couldnt play his way out of a paper bag on guitar. I dont think I ever heard anyone ever say he could actually play. Oh-Im sure he knew a few of the main chords and all, But I doubt he know any lead scales or anything more complicated than conventional chords. Of course I hate Garth Brooks too. To each his own.
