jimmie ray Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I don't see how you can jump from CCR and the Hollies to AC/DC? I find their rhythm section cumbersome and repititive, for most of their work. Have you explored Mountain or The James Gang? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyPageZoSo56 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 ACDC sort of does them as well just a bit heavier. like High Voltage or Can I Sit Next to You Girl I read in a magazine that AC/DC didn't want to do Back In Black originally. the opening riff was Malcolm's but he thought it was too heavy and said they didn't want to do a Led Zeppelin thing. James Gang is really good for that sort of thing you're talking about. Try Funk #49. Not only their biggest song, but has great rhythm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footsteps of Dawn Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 This is probably too obvious, but have you tried Steppenwolf? Or George Thorogood? Gosh, that's all that's coming to mind right now...hope that helps a little. Hmm, it seems I need to check out James Gang! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 James Gang is glorious. Check out Rides Again. Speaking of Joe Walsh, Rocky Mountain Way has a nice bit of slide going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danelectro Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 It sounds like the op is looking for straight forward, four on the floor, songs to jam along to. I'm sure we've heard these before, here are my suggestions. Get Back-Beatles Taking Care of Biz-BTO All Right Now-Free Joan Jett-I Love Rock and Roll All of these are pretty "strummy" with a minium of single note lead work a-la CCR. KISS has TONS of songs like that as does any of the poppier rock bands of the 70's like The Raspberries and Big Star. You may want to check out more recent bands like Teenage Fanclub.
