tyedye Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Thriller is crap/pop, but it's your list man. It certainly wouldn't go anywhere near my top 10, or even my bottom 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ady Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 In Search of Space is a good choice mate !! It was either that one or the third album, which I can never remember the name of... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickZepp Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Led Zeppelin has to be I. II is a good argument but I'm picking I Jimi Hendrix-Axis Bold as Love Black Sabbath-I guess I'll pick Paranoid but any of the first 5 will do. Aerosmith-Aerosmith AC/DC-Back in Black Nazarath-Hair of the Dog The Who-Tommy ZZ Top-Tres Hombres Nirvana-Unplugged from NY Rolling Stones-Sticky Fingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahfin Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I had the pleasure of seeing Mother's Finest many, many times here in NC as they were from just down the road in Hotlanter. I've seen a lot of concerts in my time but those MF shows are some of the very best I've ever seen, bar none. I haven't seen them since the 80s but MF is still actively touring and are immensely popular overseas. http://mothersfinest.com I caught Foghat in their prime back when Foghat Live was new. They played Dorton Arena in Raleigh with Derringer (first time I saw wireless guitars) and The Outlaws. The Outlaws were virtually unknown at the time but for whatever reason, closed the show. I only saw Foghat one other time and it was during their New Wave phase. Still good, just not the boogie-woogie era Foghat I love the best. Despite the loss of Lonesome Dave and Rod Price Foghat is still touring today. To my ears they can never be Foghat without Lonesome Dave. I never have seen J. Geils but I highly recommend Peter Wolf's Sleepless album in the event that you have never heard it. It never got a lot of publicity and/or airplay but it is definitely one of my favorite records of the last 10 years or so. He's still got it. I guess it doesn't hurt that Mick and Keith also guest star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gperkins151 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Led Zeppelin IV - Led Zeppelin Machine Head - Deep Purple Paranoid - Black Sabbath Ten - Pearl Jam Rocks - Aerosmith Master of Puppets - Metallica (not 'Hard Rock' per se, but an essential album nonetheless) Daydream Nation - Sonic Youth Danzig - Danzig Cream - Wheels of Fire The Stooges - The Stooges Edit: This is the eleventh but what the hell, imo Robin Trower's album "Bridge of Sighs" is ESSENTIAL. That list will probably be completely different in a couple of weeks. No Tool!! Shame on you! Here's my list: Tool - Aenima Led Zeppelin - How the West Was Won pearl jam - Vs. Soundgarden - Superunknown Stone Temple Pilots - Core Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine Jimi Hendrix - Live at Woodstock Pink Floyd - The Wall Boston - Boston Queen - A Night at the Opera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gperkins151 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 For everyone who picked TEN by Pearl Jam, am I alone in thinking that the best version of Evenflow is the single one? It can be found on the greatest hits comp as well. Also, how many of you are still fans? I think that they have aged well, much better than R.E.M. IMO.

Jarlaxle 56 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I would have put Tool at the very top of my list, except I don't think of them as Hard Rock, more like Prog Metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelmon Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 No Tool!! Shame on you! But he more than made up for it by including Sonic Youth ! Dang and I didn't. Well, that was just an oversight...

Jahfin Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Also, how many of you are still fans? I think that they have aged well, much better than R.E.M. IMO. I agree but R.E.M. was dealt a deathly blow by the departure of drummer Bill Berry in 1997 from which they've never quite recovered. That may change in the new year with the release of a new album, most of which was debuted this past summer in Dublin as part of their "working rehearsals". If nothing else, it's definitely a return to their guitar-oriented sound of yore, at least as evidenced by the recordings that have surfaced as well as the clips that have been uploaded to YouTube from the performances.

Jahfin Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 BARF !!!!!! Boston may be a victim of overplay by classic rock radio but their debut was considered very innovative for the time and the production values even inspired future artists such as Smashing Pumpkins. They may be one of the most hated artists in Classic Rock land but even I'm not so quick to dismiss them (or Kansas, Styx, REO, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 That was unexpected! I'm happy to see The Four Horsmen on your list Jahfin (or anybody's list for that matter). They never got the attention they so much deserved. Here's my list, in no particular order: Blue Cheer - Vincebus Eruptum MC5 - Back in the U.S.A. Grand Funk Railroad - Grand Funk Thin Lizzy - Fighting Black Crowes - The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion Moxy - Moxy Hellacopters - High Visibility Jeff Beck Group - Truth The Four Horsemen - Nobody Said It Was Easy Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post Berry songs always came off much better live. I think this is another thing that finally dawned on them. Thus, the return to a more stripped down approach to the songs and the Dublin rehearsals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
