    Blues to Rock Crossover Covers

    I always associate Catfish blues with Little Walter, who I never cared for, but Jimi Hendrix turned the song on its head.

    I've been listening to this and, while the band is great, couldn't help noticing that Gillan's voice is unusually strained on some tracks.

    Tesla (Official Thread)

    Tesla seem more like the British bands than the Californian bands of the time, perhaps because of the influence of Terry Thomas. But, having said this, Saul Hudson was born in Hampstead and raised in Stoke-on-Trent.

    German 70's Rock

    The bands signed to the Brain label were all good, like Birth Control, Jane, Accept, Guru Guru, Novalis, SFF and RMO. Can were great live, but I have never been able to get into their albums. My favourites are Nektar, who were British ex-patriots, and Eloy. Epitaph (like ELP and DT) are much...

    Nektar - Greatest Hits Live. It was a devil to track down, like Live in New York 2. Roye Albrighton's live guitar work is some of the best I've heard. I just wish I could find the Live at Nearfest album.

    Is Nirvana an overrated band? (and other ones)

    If a band is liked by a lot of people, they are not really overrated, but neither are they necessarily everyone's cup of tea. A lot of bands are certainly underrated, having more musical talent than many of the commercial stars (imo). Re grunge, I saw a TV documentary about the death of Kurt...
