    If classic rock didn't exist....

    99.5% of the time I listen to late 1960s & 1970s British and American HEAVY ROCK and late 1960s and 1970s British and American blues/rock. Sometimes for a change I mite listen to some 1970s funk/rock and also several late 1960s and early 1970s 'pop songs' that I remember from that era that...

    Uriah Heep (Official Thread)

    I can't remember if I heard of John's passing or not cos many musicians from the 'golden age' of rock the 1970s appear to be checking out of this life these days I presume cos many are now in there 70s and 80s. As for John I always liked the three 'Heep' albums that he appeared on during the...

    Am I Soft Rock & R&B?

    I would call The Eagles a 'soft rock' band especially there albums before Joe Walsh joined in 1975 although even after Joe joined overall I would classify them as predominantly 'soft rock' also AOR (Adult Orientated Rock)

    Paul Rodgers Returns With First Solo Music in Nearly 25 Years

    When it comes to Paul Rodgers I only still listen to the FREE era recordings between 1968-1972/73. For some reason I could never get into Bad Company although I have all there cd/albums although the two albums that he recorded with Jimmy Page under the band name The Firm during the mid 1980s...

    68 Forgotten Rock Supergroups

    The second album was on the Capricorn label from the southern states the same as the first album was (The Allman bros. were on the same label) and I bought the second album on cd from the HMV store in London about 15 years ago and played it but I didn't go much on it compared to the first album...

    ☆The Plenty Of 1970☆

    Possibly the greatest ever 1970s 45 rpm single that was released was BTOs Ain't Seen Nothing Yet in the first half of 1974. I remember the song well back in 1974 and since last Friday I have played it upwards of 500 times over and over and over again and love every second of it!!. ;) Randy...

    Jazz-Rock/Jazz fusion recommendations

    Hard to say with regards to any jazz/rock albums to be honest. Being a strictly 1970s mainstream rock fan (British & North American bands) and late 1960s & 1970s blues/rock fan I rarely tend to venture into other fields of music or rock music. Granted with regards to John McLaughlin and the...

    70s Prog-Rock Bands Fronted By Female Vocalists?

    Just something about them that doesn't do it for me possibly cos of the 'prog element' although having said that I know they've always had a BIG FOLLOWING.

    Jazz-Rock/Jazz fusion recommendations

    It is kinda ok 'in parts' and John McLaughing was certainly capable of 'fretboard fireworks' when he wanted to 'burn the guitar neck' but both albums are 'jazz albums' from 1971 & 1972 although with a rock feel to them in parts. One of the albums has a slow number on it with a prominent 'fiddle'...

    Thread Closed What Are You Listening To? (No Videos)

    You can't play Eye Of The Tiger without associating it with the Rocky IV movie and Stallone. I did read several months ago that Deep Purple may have approached the singer to replace Ian Gillan after Gillan was fired from the band back in 1989 but the guy in Survivor wasn't interested.

    70s Prog-Rock Bands Fronted By Female Vocalists?

    I never ever got into Rush and as for Uriah Heep I use to occasionally listen to them 25-30 years ago but don't anymore and as for Black Sabbath I only occasionally listen to there 1970s albums after which I don't bother anymore with the 'Dio years' albums and albums such as Born Again, Seventh...

    ☆The Plenty Of 1970☆

    I always liked Cactus going back about 40 years ago when I first came across them on a live album of the 1970 Isle of Wight festival playing on a couple of live tracks on the album and about 6 months ago I bought a cd box set of all there studio albums and some previously unreleased live...

    55 Years Ago: Brian Jones Plays Last Show With The Rolling Stones

    Brian's death is like Jimi Hendrix's death shrouded in mystery. The official version of Brian's death is that he accidently drowned in his swimming pool during a midnight dip in 1969 while some in recent years have claimed that he was murdered in his swimming pool by being held under the water...

    Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2023

    This side of 'the pond' today's so called 'British talent' that is coming through into the so called 'British music industry' is woeful to be honest people like 'the busker' Ed Sheeran who appears to spend most of his time in court fighting plagiarism lawsuits these days or 'British rappers'...
