Favorite Band(s)?


war ensemble

Hector, I28...went back and listened to Milo Goes to College again...and it is a great album...maybe its the later stuff that bothers me.

I never claimed their catalog was awesome from top to bottom, just that the album is awesome from start to finish.

But I'd like to add Operation Ivy to my list...I can neve get enough of their music.

But think of all the ****ty ska punk bands that they inspired!

2 types of "ALT," whatever "Standard" + 2 other "Rock" + "Jam" categories... that's 6 categories of what amounts to rock and roll... but no BLUES?

Son, you need to go buy yourself the Complete Recordings of Robert Johnson, The Best of John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Son House, Skip James, Howlin' Wolf and some of BB King's old stuff, and go from there... :D

+ 1

But I like his list overall.

Just added Lead Belly to my library. Very excited.

Also added a bunch of Lee Scratch Perry. He's on my list too.

O Rly... I simply forgot a Blues section, but I thought it would be apparent since I included Clapton/BF, and Zeppelin who stole most of Willie Dixon's songbook, as well as from many others. I've seen B.B. 4 times, Clapton 5, Clapton/Winwood 2X, and SRV twice.

If you're going to hate on the list, don't be so obvious with your suggestions. Where's Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, Freddie King, Koko Taylor, etc...., son?:character0282:

Forgive me if I misunderstood your intentions, but the "Son" comment kinda set me off.
