sbrock1san.rr.com Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 Khan- One of my favorites, Trespass. A true classic and Gabriel at his best. I'm one of the few fans that loves his Genesis work and dislikes his solo albums. Essential Robin Trower is classic stuff and always in my CD player. Jethro Tull- Thick as a Brick still amazes me to this day....a very adventurous composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedster Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 MMM...Vintage tone...fa-attening.... Well, I just ordered a CD from Sonicnet yesterday...the first Nazz album (Todd Rundgren's first band)...so, I expect I'll be listening to quite a bit of that when it gets here. Nazz stuff was impossible to find until Rhino decided to reissue it...and I'm a big Rundgren buff. Have hooks, will travel...

miroslav Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 Ooooh so many choices... I can list many, but one artist(several albums) comes to mind right away when I want to get into that "classic" 60s mode... Neil Young That sound just always does it for me. How can a guitar and voice be so out of tune and still sound so good!

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 Lots and lots of mid-era Joni Mitchell. I thought it was just a phase I was going through, and now I can't stop listening and marveling at her amazing musical prowess and lyrical genius. Also, her backing bands on these albums (Jaco, Tom Scott, Wayne Shorter, Larry Carlton, Robben Ford and many others) are some of the best players ever assembled behind a solo artist. Right now, here's the order of priority: "Hissing of Summer Lawns" "Court and Spark" "Hejira" - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ola Lagarhus Posted February 21, 2001 Share Posted February 21, 2001 Listen to: The Shadows - the early years 1959-1961 - England`s top instrumental group that became very popular in Europe and the rest of the world - unfortunately not in USA. Have you Americans heard the tune `Apache` played by The Shadows and released in 1960?? Elvis Presley - 1954 - 1956 from the `King of R/R` 50`s box. Led Zeppelin - four first albums Other than that, I listen to classical music or `classic disks` Ola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Walters Posted February 22, 2001 Share Posted February 22, 2001 I've been on a classic electronic binge lately: Subotnick, Stockhausen, Ussachevsky, the Barrons, T. Dream (70s only), Klaus Schulze (ditto), Mars Everywhere. I even pulled out "Beaubourg" by Vangelis (his noisiest). Joni Mitchell's great too though ("For the Roses" being my favorite).

KenElevenShadows Posted February 22, 2001 Share Posted February 22, 2001 >> 've been on a classic electronic binge lately: Subotnick, Stockhausen, Ussachevsky, the Barrons, T. Dream (70s only), Klaus Schulze (ditto)>> I had to mention to someone -- I'm on a compilation (Waveform Records -- "Slumberland II") that also features Klaus Schulze!!!!! Yippeeeeee! It is, however, current Klaus and not '70s Klaus, which makes sense since I wasn't recording music in the '70s -- well, actually, I was, but I'm not going to be releasing any of that stuff recorded on a Sears cassette player/recorder while banging on a piano when I was seven years old... The OHM compilation of experimental composers released a little while ago by Ellipsis is really quite a great compilation for anyone interested in early electronic music. I should also add that included in that not-even-close-to-exhaustive list of classics should include "On Land" by Brian Eno and "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts" by Eno and David Byrne. Don't know how I could have left it off the previous list -- but you know, that previous list was more a list of stuff that I've played in the last couple of weeks or so. ------------------ Ken/Eleven Shadows/d i t h er/nectar ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ music*travel photos*tibet*lots of stuff "Sangsara" "Irian Jaya" & d i t h er CDs available! http://www.elevenshadows.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ken Lee Photography - photos and books Eleven Shadows ambient music The Mercury Seven-cool spacey music Linktree to various sites Instagram Nightaxians Video Podcast Eleven Shadows website Ken Lee Photography Pinterest Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
