did you guys ever see this?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/13/AR2005111301291.html

i do see a lot of kids wearing led zeppelin shirts still, and kids on youtube doing note-for-note versions of david gilmour solos and stuff. a part of me thinks, wow, good taste with the youngsters, and another part of me thinks, wow, i bet they get made fun of a lot. ;D

still, even when i was in high school led zeppelin was already pretty old but we still liked it. it went well with getting s**tfaced drunk cuz it's all mopey and stuff.

"'Hey Jude'? Duude.
The Top 40 Are Over 40 for Teens With a Taste for Old-School Rock

By J. Freedom du Lac
Washington Post Staff Writer
Monday, November 14, 2005; Page C01

David Zeke -- inquisitive, artistic, analytical and vastly smarter than your average high school senior -- is failing to find the irony here. So he adores the aged song that's exploding from the speakers connected to his desktop computer. So what?

"It's just really good music," the 17-year-old from Vienna says with a shrug. This, as the snarling vocals come barreling out of the time-warp machine: "I'm not trying to cause a b-big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)/I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)!"

Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson visits with Thomas Jefferson High's classic-rock club, including David Zeke, left, John Sigman and Tom Smilack. (Tracy A. Woodward -- The Washington Post)

It's the Who's landmark youth anthem "My Generation," recorded 40 years ago for a generation that has since turned gray, with adultly concerns and everything else that the song's author, Pete Townshend, seemed to fear when he made that famous 1965 declaration, "Hope I die before I get old."

Townshend was in his mid-forties when Zeke was born. The song itself already had reached the legal drinking age."

Paranoid is great.  In the Uk at least it sort of crossed music boundaries in that several punk/goth bands would do this as an encore to a concert.  The first version I can recall hearing was by The Damned.

i'm not a big eagles fan, which is funny because i'm a big joe walsh fan. i like hotel california -- i mean come on, those guitar solos at the end just never get old -- and LITFL, and a couple of others, but for the most part they were just kinda generic for my tastes. sorta bad company-ish. i mean they were very different from bad company but the simplicity of the music was similar.

excellent production though.

there are a couple of good More Than A Feeling vids out there  :)

and good call with Billy Preston.  I'm gonna add one of Billy to your list and a very young Clapton is also in this one, along with a whole bunch of others including Badfinger, but they are off to the right out of the camera shot. It's from George Harrison's "The Concert For Bangladesh" and Billy's performance kicked the benefit concert energy up a couple of notches. and check out Billy's glory dance towards the end, he gets up from the keyboard and gets down.  8)

What would you say classic rock is? Like maybe between the British Invasion and MTV (1964 to 1980/81ish) and anything that's mainstream but generally rocking.

Anyway, I know I'm not gonna get much praise for this, but even though there's some undeniable classics, it's really overrated. There's some individual songs I like (usually the poppier ones), but as a whole it bores me over time. I mean, how many times can you hear the same Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin songs before you just wanna rip your hair out? It's nice to change it up a bit and hear something other than just a guitar for five minutes!

That said, here's a few favorites:

Breakdown - Tom Petty
Do it Again - Steely Dan
Heart of Gold - Neil Young
All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
I'll Supply the Love - Toto ("Hold the Line" is overrated, and their best stuff was '80s)
later Beatles, especially anything from Part 1 of the White Album
Double Vision - Foreigner
The Long Run - Eagles (Henley's solo stuff beats the heck out of them, though)
Say You'll Love Me - Fleetwood Mac
early Rolling Stones (i.e. Paint it Black, Gimmie Shelter, Let's Spend the Night Together)
Born to Run - Bruce Springsteen
Down on the Corner - Creedence Clearwater
Baby I Love Your Way - Peter Frampton
Listen to the Music - Doobie Brothers

I never understood why some of them bore me, but others I love to death. I guess I like anything that's poppier and catchy....but considering I'm a Paula Abdul fan, I probably have pretty broad tastes. ;D

Some of those songs are before my time, but like stuff from the late '70s was still common enough on the radio when I was really young, so I did kinda grow up with it. Plus, my dad likes some of the lighter classic rock as well.

The best Heart song is "These Dreams" - that's one of a gazillion that I remember hearing on the radio when I was really young. I remember because of where we lived at the time, it was like early 1986.

I also love "Alone" and "All I Wanna Do is Make Love To You" too, just clean cut and catchy '80s pop/rock ballads.

Rick is probably all sobered up from the partying scene and can focus on the music, although in the 70's he just flat out kicked ass.  if you don't have Edgar Winter's White Trash *Roadwork* album, I highly recommend it. Rick is on fire

How about some of the standards from the "Southern Rock" explosion in the '70s?

Pure Prairie League - Amie No actual video for that one, but still a great song.

Elvin Bishop - Fooled Around And Fell In Love Once again no video, but still a great song.

Gimme Three Steps - Lynard Skynard Very under appreciated song by Skynard.

Heard It Love Song - Marshall Tucker Band Great tune from the late '70s.

A few others that I like:

Feel Like Making Love - Bad Company

Running On Empty - Jackson Browne

Awesome thread. A lot of great songs listed so far ;)

"smoke on the water" was similar, it was just so straight-ahead and so playing with great guitar tone that it made me say, i have to learn how to play this thing because that sound is SO good. and that's a big part of why that song is so made fun of now, because it's so good. lol. barracuda is similar, it's just so rockin'.  :D

i have that one song of theirs i like better than all others but i can never remember what it's called cuz i just remember the guitar stuff and i know it's about show your love or hide your love or something and then immediately i think about "you've got to hide your love away" by the beatles and that becomes this brain booger and i can't think of it after that. maybe i should drink more.

sorry to get all studio again, but i just really like the studio of this one. it seems slightly lesser known by them, it was still a big hit in the day but less remembered over the years and i loved it, i only had a recording off the radio and i listened to it over and over again. 8)

something about that crescendo when there's that lush guitar chord and the band kicks in, it's always been the perfect musical metaphor for when you have that period after you toke up, and you wonder how strong it's gonna be, and then that wave washes over you and you realize it's gonna be  8) strong.

When I was bartending a guy I grew up with would come in the bar a rave about these guys. After
weeks of asking he finally made a tape so I could hear it. this was the mid 90's, it wasn't until I was
reading the AC/DC comments that I even thought to look on youtube for them.

damn these guys have got amphetamine-inspired chops! i might have to go trolling for CDs on amazon for this band. i'd heard the name before but never actually listened to them.

ha! i listened to the whole thing and posted on that too. that guitar player is AMAZING, but i get mad with the posters saying he's better than jimi. he's different than jimi, i wouldn't even compare them. i think frank marino (that's his name, yes?) is playing jimi chops because he loves jimi, not because he's trying to one-up jimi, so posters comparing the two like there's a competition between them are missing the point and undermine both players.

that said i am now watching this...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Yv2rikXYB50

empty pages. i bet if someone went back through this thread i've probably linked to this tune already. it's just so straight-ahead and ecstatic, and it's a traffic song you never hear. listen to that key solo that starts up around 1:50. feel free to rip the previous definition of "groovy" out of your dictionary.  :P it's like dead-show noodly, but with an energy that the dead were never able to muster. jam-band with a purpose, if that makes any sense.

i remember there was a time when traffic got me through a very angsty period of my life. i had barleycorn, low-spark, and some live album, and i listened to them over and over and over again. traffic is one of my enduring faves.

it's funny, i got a recent dvd on netflix of the traffic reunion and steve winwood spends the whole time playing guitar. pissed me off, i was like dude, you're the master of the keys. what are you doing playing guitar?!?! i mean he wasn't bad but i wanted to hear him weave the magical web of magical craziness that he can do on organ and piano. damn he's good. as a guitar player, he's passable but he's no angus.  :P

ah good call! i know only three steppenwolf songs (the two you mention and the pusher man) so now i have some homework to do. the first two things i thought of are: the doors actually made a couple of albums after jim morrison died and amazingly, they're pretty good! instrumentals, as i recall. and my favorite black sabbath album, which is vol. 4, which has no hits on it. but is a lovely lovely album.

I spent the day discovering Sabbath all over again. Songs that have long since benn forgotten;
Behind The Wall Of Sleep, Fairies Wear Boots, Hands Of Doom, Symptom Of The Universe and
the Wizard, to name a few. What a great band they were.

Speaking of obscure classics, here's one from Atomic Rooster. Don't pay any attention to
the twits who made comments saying it's Carl Palmer behind the Drum kit. Carl Palmer had
left the band at the time of the airing of the show to join ELP.The man behind the kit is
Paul Hammond.

When I started taking drum lessons in 1977 I chose this song to be the first that I learned to play.
I listened to it over and over to get the drum part just right and I wrote the part down note for

Instead of "Rumours" they should have called that album "Baggage."

Whenever I hear that song on the radio I can almost picture Lindsey and Stevie in the studio flipping each other off as they go back and forth singing "You can go your own way...."

What really sucks, arond here anyway, is radio stations have a special promotion. If you belong to their "At Work Network,"
you can buy tickets before they go on sale to the general public. The floor and first level are sold out before the announced

what's best about this song are the unusually bitter and yet brilliant lyrics, which really should have made this tune the title song for "glen gary glenross." but what's also great about it is how angus holds back on his weird gimpy wail thing until the very end, and then he just sails into the drop beat with lots of wild shred. man, these guys are fun. and let's face it, bon scott was a pure and simple rock star.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47wMZeYFc80

http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/9/93/300px-BonScottBig.jpg

anyway, the lyrics have a certain bitter, stoic poetry for a band not particularly known for eloquent lyrics.

Well it's a dog eat dog
Eat cat too
French eat frog
And I eat you
Business man when you make a deal
Do you know who you can trust
Do you sign your life away
Do you write your name in dust
Hey, hey, hey
Every dog has it's day
It's a dog eat dog
Dog eat dog

Dog eat dog
Read the news
Someone win
Someone lose
Up's above and downs below
And limbo's in between
Up you win
Down you lose
It's anybody's game
Hey, hey, hey
Every dog has it's day
It's a dog eat dog
Dog eat dog

And it's a eye for eye
Tooth for tooth
It's a lie
That's the truth
See the blind man on the street
Lookin' for somethin' free
Hear the kind man ask his friend
Hey, what's in it for me
Hey, hey, hey
Every dog has it's day
It's a dog eat dog
Dog eat dog

Dog eat dog, dog eat dog
Dog eat dog, dog eat dog

ah the blind faith album. one of my favorite albums ever, i had this on cassette in high school. over and over i played it.

love the live version of this. i think it was hard back in those days to actually play without overdriving and losing pitch, because they hadn't invented monitors yet. you had to try and stay in pitch with these huge amps blaring behind you. you can tell they're holding back on volume and being pros to keep the music in the groove. pink floyd was always also very good at that. these guys and traffic were always the mac, love them.

i always thought syd barrett might have had a kind of mental illness summed up in this currently outmoded definition from the DSM.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disorganized_schizophrenia

you hate to think of it as a disorder, in a way, because barrett had this fascination and understanding of childhood through his music that not many of us could understand. but it seemed like it really ripped him up in the end, and i guess the LSD probably didn't help.

piper at the gates of dawn and stuff like see emily play have always had a big influence on me. syd was one of a kind.

"Disorganized schizophrenia is a subtype of schizophrenia as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. This type is characterized by prominent disorganized behavior and speech (see formal thought disorder) including word salad, and flat or inappropriate emotion and affect. The criteria for the catatonic subtype of schizophrenia must not have been met as well. This type of schizophrenia is also known as hebephrenia, and is named after the Greek goddess of youth, Hebe, in reference to the typical age of onset in puberty. "

it's richard wright's syd barrett impersonation from saucerful of secrets and i've always thought it's quite a nice, and very underappreciated, song, where rick wright is trying to do syd's thing about writing songs about children at play. rick wright didn't do enough song writing if you ask me. he's also a great talent, pink floyd is one of those bands like the beatles where you marvel that all those people with contrasting but complementary talents could somehow find each other.

i'm like really weird about pink floyd. i really think they're amazing, they've inspired me since i was walking on two feet. but their really old stuff, piper at the gates and their singles, up to about meddle, are just deeply lovely to me, and very underappreciated. (i had the good fortune to listen to them with other folks who were "doing things," and we used to listen to lots of pink floyd, from all eras up to and including the wall, and i liked all of it, but i was noticing that the older it was, the more i liked it. a personal idiosyncrasy of mine, i think. i dig all of their albums, but saucerful of secrets, ummagumma, meddle, damn, those are superfine albums. i think partly because they weren't huge hits so in a way it's easier to feel like they're more for you personally when you're listening to them, yes? i mean, everyone know dark side of the moon.

You're right about one thing, the older, less listened to Floyd is some of their best material. I was unfortunately stubborn, it
wasn't until after the release of "Animals" that I saw the light and became a fan. I had a lot of catching up to do but it was
well worth it. To me, the genius of Barrett and Waters was phenomenal and David Gilmour was an excellent --- replacement, for
lack of a better word, for Barrett. After the split of Gilmour and Waters Floyd became less appealing to me again. To me, "The
Wall" was the last great Floyd album and even that has it's not--so--good moments.

As I am writing this at 8:25 am I am listening to this classic Floyd song, What a way to start the day.  ;D

funny, because i would, predictably, call pink floyd the best rock band of all time, depending on what day you caught me, but i wasn't big on the stones until a certain point in high school, because i grew up on doggerel like jumping jack flash and satisfaction -- not bad songs, mind you, but prespammersitely straightforward songs -- and for whatever reason the zeitgeist has always encouraged comparisons between the beatles and the stones. which is a totally strange comparison to make because they're apples and oranges. (for the record, i actually do like the beatles better, but that's not the point.) but that said, i got a couple rolling stones albums after hearing songs on the radio i liked and wanting to get the albums they were on and really appreciated them. goats head soup and, um, undercover, i think it was? i bet undercover is a troubling one among hardcore fans, it's sorta got some disco crossover on it. but i always liked it.

songs i've loved by the rolling stones have been the really downbeat ones, angie, paint it black, 19th nervous breakdown... where the stones are concerned i like their emo side.  :P and there's some really long arty song they did, sorta popular but i'm not sure it was a mega hit, that has always been my real favorite, but damn my hide if i can't think of the name anymore. it was so long ago i used to listen to them. what was their really long arty one?!

I'm not really a giant Stones fan, I say the greatest of all time because of their longevity, their ability to adapt
and the fact that they can appeal to all ages in all styles. The Stones just bring back a ton of memories for me.
I still try and stay away from the popular, overplayed stuff though one can never get enough on Angie.

Long and arty eh? I 'll have to thing about that, and while I do maybe you'll want to have a listen to these forgotten
bands of long ago.

i hear that, their impact is undeniable, and in a sense it's inarguable that they tower over the old-school scene like godfathers. to tell you the truth, my big complaint about the stones is that they got very overestimated, i always thought they were a great band but when i saw people hold them up as gods it made me loathe to admit that i liked them at all. my feelings about the grateful dead are similar. i like most of their songs but some folks just went overboard with that stuff! damn!

of course, in the case of the grateful dead, the matter of their CIA sponsorship with the government-subsidized experimental drug distribution at their shows didn't hurt. i actually went to a dead show in the 80s when they were playing with dylan and it was pretty damn cool, i must admit. and i didn't even know their songs too much except the hits. the gooney bird really made that day happen for me.

To me, bands that are not so well known seem to put forth a better effort. Popular bands that play "made for radio" rock
tend to get lazy and rely too much on chords, yet some popular bands put forth great efforts. Such as:

Sea Of Joy......Blind Faith    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfdHNWJ1Xhk&amp;feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RpKlL-lMpg

  Climax Blues Band - Couldn't Get it Right

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgjSEbyWDeI&feature=related


from 1978, if i'm not mistaken. an early version of eruption by van halen.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_lwocmL9dQ


  Pre-YouTube days I found a CD (at Tower Records, no less) of a soundboard recording of Van Halen (at the time a local cover band) opening for UFO at the Goldenwest Ballroom in Norwalk, CA. in 1976...

  Here's a track listing:

  1. On Fire
  2. Show Your Love
  3. Last Child (Aerosmith cover)
  4. Tush (ZZ Top cover)
  5. The Rover (Led Zeppelin cover)
  6. Let's get Rockin' (Never released and, according to the liner notes, never released on any VH bootleg)
  7. Ice Cream Man
  8. Last Night (Early version of "Hang 'Em High")
  9. Eruption (1976 version)
10. We Die Young (Never released)
11. Somebody Get Me a Doctor
12. Babe Don't Leave Me Alone (Unreleased 1st album outtake)
13. Let Me Swim in Your Ocean (Never released and never released on any VH bootleg)
14. She's a Woman (Unreleased 1st album outtake)

  It's an amazing album recorded, on the sly, by one of the sound engineers...

I have this one, but I must admit, you have to be a true fan of prog rock to really enjoy this.

On the album, this song comes with a warning, is reads like this:

"For maximum effect this track should be listened to as loudly as possible, with as much treble and bass your
system can muster - not to be played to people with heart conditions or those in severely hallucinogenic
states of mind."

I give you:

the album is Beck Bogert Appice.  this song is Livin' Alone    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lr--vHBxLFg  and it's the studio recording, the video is just a homemade put together by a fan but the song is cool. the whole album is great.

from the same album comes this next song  Lady  performed without Jeff Beck, but not to worry, his replacement for this performance was more than adequate.  Rick Derringer in Jeff Beck's spot and he done real good

sad news for Pink Floyd and Rock & Roll  ^    :\'(





Wow.  :o ... I've only just discovered this by reading this thread.



A quote from Wiki article:

Bandmate David Gilmour said:

    No one can replace Richard Wright. He was my musical partner and my friend. In the welter of arguments about who or what was Pink Floyd, Rick's enormous input was frequently forgotten. He was gentle, unassuming and private but his soulful voice and playing were vital, magical components of our most recognised Pink Floyd sound. I have never played with anyone quite like him. The blend of his and my voices and our musical telepathy reached their first major flowering in 1971 on 'Echoes'. In my view all the greatest PF moments are the ones where he is in full flow. After all, without 'Us and Them' and 'The Great Gig In The Sky', both of which he wrote, what would 'The Dark Side Of The Moon' have been?


In tribute, I am currently listening to 'Cat Cruise' ......... and about to follow with 'Waves' ....... my 2 fave tracks from his own album, with some assistance from Dave Gilmour ...... 'Wet Dream' album. These have great sax, for fans of mellow.

Alice Cooper is one of our national treasures.  ;D


I wouldn't call his stuff exactly "sweet," but Alice was the muse of the angry teenage high school drop-out who lived nextdoor to us when I was a kid. 

It's not true he killed a chicken on stage.  According to Alice, some fan threw the chicken on stage and Alice, being a city kid, didn't know chickens don't fly, so when he threw the bird up in the air it came down amidst rabid Alice fans who shredded the poor creature.  Then the press erroneously picked up the story Alice mutilated a chicken on stage.

Frank Zappa called him up the next day and asked, "Did you really do that with the chicken?"
"No, of course not!," Alice replied.
"Well don't tell anybody," Frank advised, "This is great!"

Go ask Alice, he'll tell you the same thing!

When I hear that song I always think of the teenagers next door getting baked in their car with Led Zep blasting on the 8-track.  Some kids might have wondered why they all shared the same little cigarette, but I was wise to it.  Their pop looked the other way.  He figured if the kids were going to smoke what he called "J-bars," it was better if they did it close to home rather than sneaking around where the cops could bust them.  He just didn't want 'em smelling up the house with the stuff, so they had to sit out in the driveway if they wanted to get their buzz on.  So they'd get high in the car, then go in and gnosh out on Twinkies and watch "Lost in Space."  This was not the high-brow Allen Ginsberg stoner experience, it was the working class kid stoner experience!  Anyway, Led Zep, especially Black Dog, was the toking music of choice.  Sometimes kids from the neighborhood would join 'em and start in with an eve LOUDER car stereo!  And my father would grumble, "Those kids, those damned kids!"  Then he'd walk over to his music stand and you'd hear bubble-bubble-bubble and the strains of classical Spanish guitar...

it should be 50s rock; it was totally LZ doing a 50s chuck berry knockoff. i mean, yeah, turned up to 11, but the style is very 50s.

i used to hate trying to play that song because you could never tell how long those pauses were supposed to last and then the band all jumps in at once. on "song remains the same" they screw it up a couple times.  ;D

I've been in a classic rock mood lately - there's a new station in the Bay Area I've been listening to that plays alot of rock from about 1965 to the mid-late 80s. It's a good variety too and not just constant Zeppelin. ;D They focus on the kinda poppier rock which I like, I've been hearing everything from early Stones, the Cars, Fleetwood Mac and hair metal. I'm probably an even bigger fan than I realized, here's some of my all time favorites:

Horse With No Name; Sister Golden Hair- America
Don't Bring Me Down; Do Ya; Livin Thing; Evil Woman; Hold on Tight - ELO
Hurts so Good - John Mellencamp
Jump - Van Halen
Do it Again; Rikki Dont Lose that Number; Deacon Blues - Steely Dan
Boys of Summer - Don Henley
Photograph; Pour Some Sugar on me; Animal - Def Leppard
Listen to the Music - Doobie Brothers

I've been in a classic rock mood lately - there's a new station in the Bay Area I've been listening to that plays alot of rock from about 1965 to the mid-late 80s. It's a good variety too and not just constant Zeppelin. ;D They focus on the kinda poppier rock which I like, I've been hearing everything from early Stones, the Cars, Fleetwood Mac and hair metal. I'm probably an even bigger fan than I realized, here's some of my all time favorites:


anything from Sgt Peppers, the White Album or Abbey Road- Beatles
Paint it Black; Under My Thumb. Gimmie Shelter; Ruby Tuesday; Let's Spend the Night - Rolling Stones
You Might Think; Just What I Needed; Shake it Up - The Cars
Take Me Home Tonight - Eddie Money
Go Your Own Way; You Make Loving Fun; Say You Love Me; Hold Me - Fleetwood Mac
Dude Looks Like a Lady - Aerosmith
Jet Airliner- Steve Miller
Baby I Love Your Way- Peter Frampton
You Shook Me All Night- AC/DC
Refugee; You Got Lucky; Breakdown; The Waiting - Tom Petty
Don't Stop Believin - Journey
Let's Dance- David Bowie
Born in the USA; Hungry Heart; Dancing in the Dark- Bruce Springsteen
Horse With No Name; Sister Golden Hair- America
Don't Bring Me Down; Do Ya; Livin Thing; Evil Woman; Hold on Tight - ELO
Hurts so Good - John Mellencamp
Jump - Van Halen
Do it Again; Rikki Dont Lose that Number; Deacon Blues - Steely Dan
Boys of Summer - Don Henley
Photograph; Pour Some Sugar on me; Animal - Def Leppard
Listen to the Music - Doobie Brothers
Hello I Love You; Break on Through; Riders on the Storm; Love Her Madly - the Doors
Owner of a Lonely Heart- Yes
We Built this City - Starship
Summer of '69- Bryan Adams


This is exactly like the play list from my local classic rock station. Glad to see Philadelphia isn't the only city that is being
tortured by the same, tired old songs.  :P

Your station's got good taste, I remember you saying you detest Mellencamp though. ;D

The new one here even goes beyond rock, stuff like "Margaritaville" or soul stuff like "How Long" by the Four Tops.

Detest is too nice a word.

You have to understand, in work we all listen to the same station or none at all and classic rock seems to appease everyone.
The songs that Jess listed I hear....5 days a week .....52 weeks a year.....for the past 5 years......ugh. They don't change,
the bands on the list are okay, (with the exception of Mellencamp,) but the songs are the same. These bands have plenty
of other great songs but I hear these same tired ones over and over and over.......again UGH!

Here is a little classic rock trivia:  The first member of 70s rock band The Eagles to go solo was Randy Meisner, who left the group in 1977.  His first hit as a solo artist came in 1980 with 'Deep Inside My Heart', a duet wth Kim Carnes.  It reached #22 in the US and #12 in Canada

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nJE3eCrXUg

Prior to forming the Eagles, Meisner was a founding member of Poco, but left after their first album in 1969.  His replacement was Timothy B. Schmidt in both groups.

He sang the song 'Bad Man' on the late 70's soundtrack/compilation album 'FM'. I assumed that was one of his hits (post Eagles) ... but maybe he only sang it for the soundtrack (it was written by Frey & JD Souther).  :-\\

I do enjoy the Quartermass stuff. i've got three John Gustafson CDs, two from his early days with a band called, get ready to giggle, "Hard Stuff," which was sorta a Sabbath-Jethro Tull inspired hard rock band, and one called "Goose Grease," which was a sorta funk-jazz fusion studio session that apparently never got put together on vinyl. ("Goose" was a nickname he managed to get in high school, i gather, way before "Top Gun.") Real talented guy who deserved more fame than he got, in my opinion.

This is another personal fave, which i'd love to see covered at a christine o'donnell political rally someday. bang your head!

one of the sweetest classic rock tunes of all time with the absolutely greatest scream in a song. I really like this live version performed in 2001 at the Concert For New York after 9/11.
