L.S. Dylan Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 It is inevitable. All bands "jump the shark" at some point. If you could see one act from today and one from rock history, who would they be? That is going to be a difficult question to answer. I think I would have to say I would love to see either early Hendrix- pre monterey or early Zeppelin in 69, or early Pink Floyd in the UFO in like 65-66, or Cream. See what I mean by difficult? I start naming one band then another pops in, then another, and it won't stop. Out of today's bands- Mooney Suzuki, the Redwalls (saw them), and the Black Keys (saw them). What about You or anyone else in here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Funny Drums. I like Louis XIV, but the only song I really know is Finding out True Love is Blind. Good song, but I'm betting you didn't post it because of the drum machine sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I possibly did that subconsciously.. actually the drumming is pretty damn awesome in this song! sr2qgFHfPXE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about You or anyone else in here? Great choices. Yeah, it's impossible to narrow it down to one in each era. Dumb question on my part. My choice for the old days is easy: Chuck Berry in 1956 performing "Roll Over Beethoven" live in some small club. To have heard that music for the first time--with that iconic monumental riff--back then must have been astounding. A close second would be The Beatles in Hamburg, when they were still a rock & roll outfit. Of the modern performers, probably The White Stripes. I think Jack White is a genius.

L.S. Dylan Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Of the modern performers, probably The White Stripes. I think Jack White is a genius. Quite possibly the savior of Rock n Roll. He is in two successful bands and he's mainstream in a good way. Now he is doing the theme song for the new Bond movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guitar player in a garage band I was in back in the 70s absolutely loved Rory's playing and got us into him. I don't remember if we attempted to cover any of his music. Here's another guitarist from that era that knocked us out as well. His style was really trippy and unique back then.
