Jimbo357 Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 If you want some really good guitar riffs, try Joe Satriani's Surfing with the Alien. Incredible stuff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partaymon Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 "Sullivan" by Caroline Spine; "Closer" by NIN, "Bring It On" by Seal, "Love In An Elevator" by Areosmith, "Right Now" by Van Halen.... just to name a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Garrison Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 and now for something completely different... You haven't lived until you've heard the William Tell Overture, by Gioachino Rossini, as performed by the Cincinnati Orchestra under Erich Kunzel, on Telarc #80116, available at Amazon played back at something on the order of 110dB+ peak levels on Klipshorns. (This is popularly known at the "theme song to the Lone Ranger"). I am serious. You think the Who, Live at Leeds, is something, you haven't heard anything yet...

Deang Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Interesting thread -- one to be treasured. hee hee, and Kelly thinks I'M the metalhead -- jeesh Mike, I need to have you send some of that stuff my way!! I won't add anything I've already seen, so -- here goes (no particular order of preference, and these are for whole CD's, not just songs -- throw on the CD and take the therapy for the whole duration.

Doc Holiday Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 The 100 dB range I'd have to go with some Led Zepplin - Black dog, dancing days, almost anything... Rap Wu Syndicate - Weary Eyes Trancendesalent music - Eagles - Hotel California There is so much good stuff out there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike stehr Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Dean, Don't think that Kelly just listens to Jazz. He has some heavy bands in his independant label LP collection. A lot that I would like to check out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCturboT Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I just picked up Anthrax "Return of the Killer A's"last nite for $4.99 on the closeout rack at Strawberries (People don't know what they're missing)and it has some amazing drum riffs. Forgot how good "Bring the noise" is with Chuck D.Forget Aerosmith with Run DMC on "Walk this Way"...this is a awesome collaboration of Metal/Rap.

mike stehr Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 April wine's "Harder Faster" was jammed down our throats in High School. "21st century schizoid man" is my fav. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkrop Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Robert Cray, Pink Floyd, John Lee Hooker, George Benson, They all sound great as long as the were well produced. I would also like to recomend a group called Acoustic Alchemy, two classical guitarists that just jam! You can hear their fingers moving on the strings W/Klipsch sound and decent amplification. If you have the chance give them a listen. What sound from a pair of acoustic guitars and backing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsimpson Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Irresistable: Don't forget Jimmie Vaughn (SRV's brother is a fine guitar player too), Steely Dan, Eric Clapton, Dire Straits and Frank Zappa (we all have our strange moments). What? No Radio Head? Good music is like good food and good wine; it's all a matter of taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artto Posted November 23, 2002 Share Posted November 23, 2002 TOOL The first TOOL CD is immaculate. Clean as a whistle. Crank the hell out it! John Paul Jones'(of Led Zep fame, bass player) CD 'Zooma' is extremely intense. uh....just some food for thought as long as we're on the subject of music..... Everytime I play Stevie Ray Vaughn my dog comes downstairs & plants himself in the center of the music room. He does this everytime. There are no exceptions. My previous dog died the night before Stevie did. When I put on Pink Floyd he leaves (I like Pink Floyd). Once, a David Bowie tune was playing on the radio. My wife leaves to check on dinner. The dog always follows her. This time the dog stays. You guessed it! The Bowie song is from the Lets Dance LP. SRV is playing on it. When I put on TOOL, he throws up. This has happened several times. Needless to say, I remove the dog from the music room when TOOL gets played since it seems to make him sick so fast that he doesn't even get up & leave.
