Damn, you guys are good!! Thank you everyone.

You folks haven't failed me yet so I'm sure you won't this time either... What can you guys tell me about these two bands... Aphrodite's Child and Ultimate Spinach. I am a little familiar with AC but know nothing about US. Thanks in advance to all you music wizards out there :guitar:

I'm glad to see that no one has mentioned 'the nobody' by name. He doesn't deserve any sort of recognition for what he did. I don't think he deserves any recognition as a human being, much less anything else.

Well said, RonJon

Revolution 9 was one of the great 'tripping' songs...or so I've been told

Snoopy and the Red Baron - Royal Guardsman Outside A Small Circle of Friends - Phil Ochs

I saw him here in Atlanta just before the holidays and he put on a fantastic show! He's not a chatty fellow, but he can belt it out. Don't miss him if you get the chance.

That may be true, but that is a big 'if' they got help with the drug problem. Then again they may have just called it quits after ITTOD like The Who did after their final debacle...the 'You Better You Bet' album. I don't recall the actual name but then go on a half a dozen Farewell tours....

I'm not too sure about Zepplin. Personally, 'not their strongest material' is being very kind. I love Zep, don't get me wrong, but it took them 3 years to get an album together and it should have been a lot better than it was. Presence was a good album regardless of whether or not it sold well. I at least felt the effort was there and I don't think it was on the last one.

check out Limewire.com you can probably find some there.

"Comin' Into Los Angeles" by Arlo Guthrie

"Kaya" by Bob Marley "Willin" by Little Feat (and about a hundred others)

Excellent call with Paul, and I have always thought it was John on Revolution. Who know's...Ringo says he was the one who said "I've got blisters on my fingers" at the end of Helter Skelter.

I think too that the type of music that kids are exposed to probably makes a big difference. no offense but the music that they are exposed to is just so manufactured. In thirty years will there be serious discussions about Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson, Shakira? Even bands like Green Day, Semisonic, Dishwalla and Smashmouth. I am not trying to single these out, they're just a sample of the entire pop genre today. there is no staying power for most of what's being produced. Even when they have 'something to say' it all becomes secondary to whether or not the kids will buy it. the kids don't care about messages, they care about being 'cool' and part of the group. OK I'm through now..I didn't plan on going on a tangent...must of hit a nerve.

Janis Joplin..excellent
