Love this!!

I Love You (Acoustic - Live in Denver)

GREAT COVER!

 

[Lynch]

They've done a number of covers, both in concert and in the studio, including two albums (Reel to Reel v1 & v2). They have a ton of talent as far as I'm concerned.


I do love this CBB cover. It's not as "pretty" as the original, but I still enjoy it.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Yeah I will say they do a great job at covers. Their cover of We Can Work It Out was a good one too!

 

[Riff Raff]

Band I remember hearing a lot of on the game GTA Vice City on VRock station. Who says video games don't have benefits?
This song Cumin Atcha Live was the song I heard.

 

[opera races]

My first Tesla song was Love Song on a cassette single!

What You Give is another GREAT song by them.

Psychotic Supper is my favorite Tesla album.

IMO one of Tesla's best and most beautiful original songs is Song & Emotion ...

 

[Berserker]

Never heard this band before, listening to "Hang Tough" now, it's pretty good.

Berserker: I would suggest any and all of their first three studio albums as must-owns. Tesla gets unfairly lumped into the "hair band" genre which couldn't be further from the truth. Not that I mind the hair band label because I am a huge fan of the genre (or sub-genre), but Tesla was a straight-up, in-your-face hard rock band from the 80's and early 90's. Solid music from start to finish.

Mechanical Resonance (1986)
The Great Radio Controversy (1989)
Psychotic Supper (1991)




Their other albums are all solid, both the live ones and other studio sets, but these three are all 5 out of 5 stars in my honest opinion

Agreed...I NEVER understood the "hair band" comparison with these guys....

Also I updated this entire thread since it's been bumped, so have fun all
