I don't know if they do that any more, but this was the one for me and my wife...37 years later... My wife's grandma and grandpa were married for 71 years. I hope do the same. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-BONE Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 Lots of great stuff here. For classic Jazz buffs, really like Thelonius Monk, Herbie Hancock, and Billie Holliday.

The unique sounds and terrific lyrics leave me totally in awe of their creative genius. Just this one doofus' musical opinion. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are talking - have you listened to any Joel Ross (vibraphone) or Ambrose Akinmusire (trumpet)? They are part of the new blood with Kasami. Joel Ross' recent album Kingmaker is incredible and so is Akinmusire's On the Tender Spot of Every Callused Moment. As much as I love classic jazz like bebop and the more spiritual late 60s and early 70s stuff, I think some of the new jazz is really breaking new ground. I also like how they seem to have a lot of overlap/collabs with hip hop artists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zepplin and Bohnam...always between him and Keith Moon of "The Who" for favorite rock drummer. Love Stewart Copeland too. As for Zepplin, love II, IV, Houses of the Holy, and Physical Graffiti. I always thought if someone wanted to hear Moon's brilliance listen to "Quadrophenia" (and I can never grasp why some think "Tommy" is such a rock opera achievement when, in my view "Quadrophenia" is so much better). Just awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still say Carter Beauford is one of the most skilled drummers out there. That one one handed drum roll right before 3 minutes in the clip below, I mean come on... ......and then if you want to go above and beyond with skill, you need to learn about Terry Bozzio and The Black Page, which was written by Frank Zappa. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 One thing that makes a great song is what kind of effect it has on you. Regardless of where I am or how I feel, this is a song that always puts me in a reflective mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was waiting on Peart...I respect him and Rush...but I could never get into their music. Just wasn't for me....mainly the vocals. I like DMB and Carter quite a bit...I've even seen them a few times live. He is definitely underrated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wasn't for me....mainly the vocals. I saw "Rush" at Franklin College in 1975 (I think). Peart hadn't been in the band all that long, but was very impressive. Kinda Keith Moon light to me. And you're right...Geddy Lee's voice is hard to listen to...maybe that's why "2112" (a lot of instrumental work) is my favorite "Rush" LP. And I think that's the same year I saw John Mellencamp at the Artcraft Theater in Franklin. He went by John Cougar then...
