David Bowie vs Alice Cooper
Cooper would win in a fist fight, but that's not surprising considering Bowie is dead. Being dead is a serious disadvantage in a fist fight. Henry Rollins could beat either one of them, or even both, despite being a really crappy musician.- Old Dude

Sexy Women in Music II
I live in an area where Koreans outnumber everyone else. We have a local TV channel that carries Korean TV shows with English subtitles that are very interesting. And, I work with a lot of Korean and other Asian people. From what I've observed, Asian girls use hair dye and perms to look more...- Old Dude

Obscure Heavy Psych/Heavy Rock/Proto-Metal
Nobody pays attention to such things. I saw that this thread had a recent post over in the Recent Threads column on the right. Those different decade listings are a major waste of time and effort. They are about as meaningless as can be.- Old Dude

Obscure Heavy Psych/Heavy Rock/Proto-Metal
Wow! What a blast from the past. That was a garage band from Pittsburgh. I used to be on a show on the local PBS station while I was in high school in the late 60's that had local garage bands play on TV. Fresh Blueberry Pancake was one of those garage bands. I remember that their lead guitar...- Old Dude

What's the latest songs you've been playing on your guitar?
Been working on "Oh, Darling", by the Beatles, and "Stand My Ground" by Within Temptation. My wife wanted to learn a karaoke duet we could do together, so we worked on "Summer Wine", but Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra. Then I started working on playing it so we could also do it at an open mic...- Old Dude

What genres do you listen to and what is your favorite genre ???
There are some posts in this thread that illustrate the very worst thing about categorizing music into tight little pigeonholes. Even if it were possible to accurate jam individual songs into tiny little boxes, far too many people (especially the evil industry suits) try to cram bands and solo...- Old Dude

What genres do you listen to and what is your favorite genre ???
I listen to everything that sounds good. I think slicing and dicing music into "genres" is a bullshit exercise, something that radio station suits do to destroy the music industry.- Old Dude

Beatles’ Expanded 50th Anniversary Reissue of White Album Almost Ready
That's the key right there, the bit I highlighted. There is music you listen to purely for the quality, but then there's music you listen to out of curiosity. As a musician myself, I find early versions of songs, or outtakes, or other such recordings fascinating. It was interesting to learn that...- Old Dude

Beatles’ Expanded 50th Anniversary Reissue of White Album Almost Ready
One of the best things about the Beatles is that when they recorded something that wasn't very good, they threw it out. I'm pretty confident that everything that they've recorded that was worth hearing has been released by now, except possibly some things Paul referred to when he said, "But...- Old Dude

What's your favorite pre British invasion musician/band?
I've read or heard interviews where more than a few modern performers who've achieved a high level of success list a lot of "One Hit Wonders" among their influences. There are some session players, including anonymous vocalists, who had multiple "One Hit Wonder" hits under different band or...- Old Dude

What's your favorite pre British invasion musician/band?
I said, "The instrumental groups like the Ventures, the Shadows, the Tornadoes, and others cranked out some good stuff." Dick Dale and The Del-Tones were among the "others". I figured that if a reader knew that era, they'd know the "others", and if they didn't, then the names of the "others"...- Old Dude

What's your favorite pre British invasion musician/band?
Yes, it is me. But it's also someone else. It's from a Halloween costume, when I dressed as a Steampunk Werewolf Hunter. I don't usually wear a top hat.- Old Dude

What's your favorite pre British invasion musician/band?
The best thing about smoking the Devil's Lettuce in the 1970's was that I got to sleep through disco. The only thing that prevents disco from being my absolutely most hated musical genre was the introduction of rap. I came to appreciate country music much later in life. But now, I enjoy both...- Old Dude

What's your favorite pre British invasion musician/band?
For me, "back in the day" was from about 1960 until I got out of high school in 1969. I was aware of music when I was under 10 years old, but aside from a few favorite songs, I didn't pay much attention to artists or bands. In Junior High, I started paying attention to music, but I grew up in a...- Old Dude
