^R^A^J^A^
released their first two classic albums in 1966 and Zeppelin released

chose these.

Beatles (Rubber Soul, Revolver)
1967 - Beatles (Sgt Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band, Magical Mystery
Tour),
Moody Blues (Days of Future Passed)
Pink Floyd (The Piper at the Gates of Dawn)

Who (Whos Next)
1971 - Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin IV)
1972 - Deep Purple (Machine Head)

HEHE. It would have to be the most self indulgent drivel ever pissed through
a speaker, at least you can listen to Pink Floyd's soundscape 20 minute
songs. That album had about 10 minutes worth of decent music - on four
sides. Oh, and a little pretty cover. It sucked like nothing else could.
After that they got rid of Wakeman and got Moraz in for arguably the best
album they ever did - Relayer.

Nope. CTTE is much better. But that doesnt mean that Machine Head is
not a great album. Not every album can be a CTTE ;-)

Yes, wasn't classic, they were fashionable just as ELP were. Their
music sounds much more dated than PF. Every record shop carries PF,
even Walmart always has DSOM and TW available if nothing else. You
won't find any Yes or ELP there though.
On another note, Black Sabbath is apparently classic as well. I've
heard more than a couple of tunes from bands in the nineties and this
century whose music was all but a direct rip of Sabbath's style.

Yes is a band with 50/50 catalogue per album after Fragile. Unfortunately
they became that self indulgent they believed all they did was great a la
TFTO. I thought Ziggy Stardust was good Bowie though, station to station was
brillaint, so too Lodger. I pass on Dimaond Dogs, Low and Scary Monsters
(most of it). I love Sabbath but I find the sound gets a bit dark and gloomy
after a while, pioneer gothic even.

It's not the execution of the music that matters so much, as the
spirit that exists behind the presence its energies create. (True esp.

Their perennial place in 'classic rock' radio playlists, suggests
otherwise.

Sabbath is good but very one dimensional. Their most versatile album
is Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

Yes, after the punk era, PF has retained (or even gained more)
popularity than Yes. 70s PF was less ambitious than Yes and it worked
for them. But before the punk era Yes was rated higher and even more
popular

Sabbath has gained popularity due to metal fans. Unfortunately for
Yes, they were too ambitious and bands nowadays cannot make 15 minutes
epics like Yes and still be mainstream. Prog has gone underground
since the 70s, Metal is much more mainstream.

Why is that a bad thing? Overall, I disagree though. Their work after Master
Of Reality becomes much more 'varied' (not "versatile").

I agree that is their most varied album, but there's also a lot of variety
on albums such as Never Say Die (an under-rated release, I reckon) and
Sabotage. Even apart from the later albums I never felt Black Sabbath were a
one trick pony.

That they were not as good as they are made to be. The influence
factor is one of the main reason they are admired. Their albums were
not as high quality as of Zep or Yes.

Amazing. They were originally from Illinois (so am I) and relocated
to Atlanta (as I had) and they were seventies prog rockers (my
favorite music at the time) who played the Agora Ballroom in 1980. In
1980 I was working the desk at the Georgian Terrace on Peachtree
Street in which the Agora was located. Yet this band slipped
entirely below my radar. Never heard of them until you just mentioned
them.

Decidedly. Their first album, raw as it was, was excellently produced
and recorded. The title track gives me shivers to this day, The
Wizard is my all time favorite Sab tune and Iomni's guitar work all
across side two is beggars description. Truly stunning work. IMO
they never topped that album but the came very near with Master of
Reality, Sabotage and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

Unlike most bands, they shied away from studio trickery and 'played it
straight' so to speak. By Technical Ecstasy they were clearly trapped
in their own reputation and the band began to come apart.
That said, Iomni wrote and performed some truly beautiful and, dare I
say it, sweet sounding music. Even Ozzy lightened up from despair to
mere bittersweet from time to time. <g>

And those classic rock radio playlists sound as dated as Yes and ELP.
Classic Radio does not mean Classic rock. It means rock from the
Classic period. That is, late sixties to early eighties. Notably,
most of them include rock from the last decade or so. It seems rock
from the eighties and early nineties has been (rightfully) dropped
from the genre.

Listerine knocks it right out. That is, if you *want* to get the

There's another Hindu or Buddhist quote that is more germaine, on the
subject of making music, but I can't remember it well enough. This one
will do.

Dear Yahoo!:
What is the fragrance patchouli?
Dear Kathy:
If you remember the '60s, chances are you remember the scent of
patchouli. We typed this exotic-sounding word into the search box and
slogged through listings from vendors of candles, bed linens,
perfumes, and aromatherapy products... We learned that the essential
oil made from the patchouli plant has a "pungent, powerful, mossy,
musty" fragrance. The viscous, orangey-amber oil is extracted from the
leaves of a two to three foot perennial bush with purple-tinged white
flowers, native to tropical Asia.
... the highest quality oil is usually produced from fresh leaves,
distilled close to the plantation. The oil is thought to improve with
age, and is used with camphor to give India ink its characteristic
odor. In the 19th century, the fragrance was used to scent fabrics
manufactured in India for export to Europe.

Reread the exchange. Looked to me like he was referring to Jesus who
indeed is 'Lord' though I could well be mistaken. 'Swhat I get for
posting when I'm an hour past bedtime and halfway through a sixpack.
As to whether or not Jesus actually would have liked Jon's playing, I
don't suppose we'll ever know.

And crap too... except for a few good song like Black Sabbath and
Wizard... there was too much of blues wanking in there. Iommi sounds
like Santana in their debut album.

Personally, Paroanoid and MoR are their best albums. SBS gets points
for them trying something different finally but it is flawed like
their debut album. Vol4 and Sabotage are poor albums, IMO.

Ignorance is a forgivable sin, while stupidity is a mortal sin.

oldpink what do you think about my analysis that Piper At the Gates of
Dawn, Meddle and The Dark Side of the Moon are the three best Floyd
albums followed by The Wall. And also that rest of the Pink Floyd
albums are just okay. And that Beatles < Pink Floyd <Yes < Zeppelin. I
think that analysis is excellent. If you disagree you are a dumb fuck!

Yes, since it seems to show you're ignorant of the meaning of the word
'ignorant' as well as the word 'moron'.
That literally makes you an ignoramus (a phrase usually used as an insult,
which in itself could be interpreted as showing the insulter as being the
ignoramus) but it doesn't make you a moron.
Your statement also strongly suggests intolerance, or lack of openness to
other people's opinions, on your part.

None of which relates to your original statement: "...I consider ignorant
people as morons..."
And do ALL people who have heard a few songs from The Wall 'automatically'
assume Floyd > Zep?
I'd agree that it's kind of silly to say A is better than B when one has
experienced very little of B, or very little of A, or very little of both.
It's hardly moronic though, since it is possible to have heard only a small
sample of a band's work but still to decide you don't like their stuff
because it's not to your taste. Here's a pertinent example; "...I dont like
the Beach Boys' music at all and havent heard much of them...", but was that
a moronic statement?

In terms of implanting good tunes in people's heads that they can easily
recall 30 or 40 years later, I'll stick with my ordering, having listened to
a great variety of ALL the above when it first came out. One significant
characteristic of the world's best songwriters: the hooks and melodies STAY
in your head! Beatles are outstanding in this regard (and it isn't just
from over-repetition; even the least radio-played tunes are this way).
Can't say the same for Yes.

No thats why Beach Boys are not on my list. I will place them
somewhere if I hear more of them.
