[The Hound]

I didn’t even know they had 5 albums lol The first is an Aussie classic I’ve got no idea how the rest sound

my favorite band

The album Black Metal by Venom might want to find itself on your list too if you liked that

duly noted! I like what I'm hearing

[Rev Jones]

the eponymous album by Blind Faith arrived here yesterday. a GREAT 42 minutes listening session



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 up

concerning P funk I always felt like Funkadelic had a hard rock edge to it thanks to the awesome guitar work by Eddie Hazel (RIP) and later on young prodigy Michael Hampson

here's an example, a song about the Vietnam war



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.
