    Radiohead (Official Thread)

    Anyone else have an experience like this - I got the first 2 albums early and was getting into them so bought OK Computer day 1 and was blown away. Told ALL my friends how amazing this band was and way more than just "Creep" - and NO ONE listened. Until years later when everyone was into...

    Dickey Betts, Allman Brothers Band, Dead at 80

    Blue Sky is always my favorite. He crushes this version.

    The Byrds vs The Beach Boys

    God Only Knows. Best song ever. Gotta give it to them just for this reason alone.

    Simon & Garfunkel vs Neil Young

    Love Neil but the harmonies from S&G give them the win here.

    Led Zeppelin vs Queen

    Tough to pick between them for different reasons. I like a lot of songs from both groups. Both standout vocalists in different ways. But oddly I realized that since I've heard the songs I like from both these bands over years so many times, I literally NEVER intentionally put on either of these...

    Worst Beatle Song

    Gotta go with Honey Pie off the top of my head. No bueno.

    Rate the song on the different music genre

    Not normally the type of tunes I dig but discovered this one and love the beat and it's a great driving song - 8/10 Without You (featuring Usher) - David Guetta

    What Are You Listening To? Redux (No Videos)

    I just discovered this remarkable singer songwriter, Labi Siffre, and don't know why I never heard of him before, since he's amazing and has been sampled by some well known tunes over the years.

    How to Sync Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ With the Solar Eclipse

    Once you've synced it to Wizard Of Oz, why do anything else?

    Hey Babyboomers.. How About Some Pop!!

    Not the slick kinda pop but the dam catchy, hear it once and you're singing along by the end kind of pop. A true talent if you can write and make songs like that. I posted Marshall Crenshaw on another thread who I think is one of the best, so now I'm posting another of my favorites - Fountains...

    Whiskey Blues.. Roots Of Rock And Roll

    Buddy Guy is the man and my favorite blues player and singer. So cool, talented and funny as hell. He inspired the Stones, Clapton, Hendrix, and many more. Here's one of my favorite tunes of his - Five Long Years.

    The Beatles vs The Rolling Stones

    Stones are great no doubt but the Beatles volume of remarkable songs plus the evolution of the music/techniques/production over their short less than 10 years of putting out records blows the Stones out of the water.

    Favorite MOMENT of a song that hits you on a deep soul level (but isn't one of your favorite songs)?

    TOTALLY agree - she crushed those vocals. One of the best vocal performances ever in rock. So what's your moment then Slipn?

    Favorite MOMENT of a song that hits you on a deep soul level (but isn't one of your favorite songs)?

    OK - there are many favorite songs we all have - but then there are isolated moments (could be a riff, solo, intro, etc.) of songs that hit us on a deep, emotional soul level but that AREN'T necessary from our favorite song(s). What's your favorite moment from a song that isn't even one of...

    Driving Music -Seeking Suggestions - Highway Songs

    You've already got some great choices in this chain. This one popped into my head but isn't classic rock. Time To Pretend by MGMT. Hope you enjoy.

    Lost album by Buckner & Garcia

    I actually owned this album and lost countless hours of my youth to arcade and Atari games. When I heard these songs at the time i thought it was the coolest thing ever. Think they actually reunited to do a song for the Disney film Wreck It Ralph.

    Lyrics that hit you on a soul level

    Absolutely agree - about the frailty of life and finding your purpose. Also about his stepfather who died.

    Pop genius at work.

    The "Official" Power Ballad thread Pt. 2

    The "3rd" side of III Sides To Every Story with the interweaving tunes and orchestration show Nuno's genius and I listen to all 3 tracks every once in a while. I truly think they're (he's) underrated.

    Hey Babyboomers.. How About Some Pop!!

    XTC is truly incredible and I am consistently amazed more people don't know their work or that they didn't find more fame (perhaps because they stopped touring when Andy Partridge quit over stage fright issues?). Everyone should give a listen - so many incredible tunes. Also, if you're one of...

    Lyrics that hit you on a soul level

    Gonna throw another in the mix that randomly just popped into my head, just to keep the conversation going. This one isn't so much beauty (which most choices I'd have would be) as it is clever. I love Elvis Costello and his witty word play throughout his career. One of his mid-career songs was...
