My favourite song:
It’s hard to split up a 20 minute classic but this part always does it for me, them vocals
Rose Tattoo:
KILLER trackQuote:

I guess magic happens when you combine Steve Winwood with Eric Clapton
too bad they broke up after one album
lol the album came along with three other albums in a little cardboard box but was wrapped separately in plastic you can't see through because of the album cover (the 14 year old girl naked girl holding the model airplane). that gave me a good laugh. especially since I wasn't home when the package was delivered and I had to go get it from a neighbor. I was imagining the lady opening the package and her face when she saw that album cover
You might consider this funk music, and I would agree, but the guitar solo and bass solo are epic and rock inspired. I am not all that knowledgeable when it comes to rock music, and most people of my background would not be, but some of this tracks you are posting are cool, keep up the good work.
sounds great. epic solo indeed. I love funk and P-funk. this particular one sounds very p funkyyyy. I know of Slave but I haven't ever really given them a listen. I know I have a burned copy of a comp somewhere, gotta go dig it upQuote:

I like how they combined the guitar with the marching pace
that's Eddie Hazel on lead guitar. the other guitar player on here is Ron Bykowski. there was a third guitar player in the band at the time, Garry Shider, but I can't tell if there are three guitar players on this particular song or just two
Its really hard to define Funkadelic in a genre, maybe funk rock fusion. I enjoy most of their work, including March to Witches Castle. They had some great musicians
Michael McDonald does backing vocals for this song.
I've always loved this song. didn't know that was Michael McDonald! kind of pissed at myself for selling a lot of my music back in 2013 to finance a trip to NZ, although the trip was great. Steely Dan was in that batch I sold too.Quote:

about to listen to these this afternoon, thanks Satan
started listening to the first of five Styx albums. I first played their 'classic one'. I'm rather enjoying it
full play list

nice surrealist cover art too
Emerson Lake & Palmer
prog rock, but not like Asia (Palmer, the drummer, was in this band later) or Styx, Yes or King Crimson
I like their take on classical music. it's bombastic stuff
their acoustic tracks sort of make me think of Pink Floyd
apparently they were quite the draw live too with spectacular stuff like a piano hanging suspended in the air, turning around, being played. and a rotating drum platform. guess they took motion sickness pills before each show
Danny Waysted's got one of the best channels for rock that fell by the wayside over the years. so many good bands that never made it

^^1993 debut album. Second song is an instant classic
I'm stuck in the vortex of punk rock, and I dont wanna leave, if I get bored I just find myself going further back in time to like the 60's to see what kind of songs these boys were making before they landed in Vietnam.

Riffs, I'm all about the riffs.
Daaaaamn I'm positively enjoying this one right now. Riffs indeed. The vocals are up there too. Gonna share this vid with my rock buddy right now, see if he knows the band. Thanks!Quote:
