Farin Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Elephants ~ Warpaint (2008) youtube this is from their self released EP, their first album comes out this week or the next, I think produced by John Frusciante Dry the Rain ~ The Beta Band (1997) youtube* * a nice amateur video, song starts at ca 0:30 I thought about not nominating their most well known songs, but let's face it: even this one barely has any chance to get many votes This is the definition of my life Lying in bed in the sunlight Choking on the vitamin tablet The doctor gave in the hope of saving me In the hope of saving me Walked in the corner of the room A junk yard fool with eyes of gloom I asked him time again Take me in and dry the rain Take me in and dry the rain Take me in and dry the rain Take me in and dry the rain the rain The rain the rain the rain now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dappled Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Walk on the Water - CCR 1968 From an article in Wikipedia about Turntablism: "Examples of turntable effects can also be found on popular records produced in the 1960s and 1970's. Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1968 self-titled debut album features a backspin effect in the song "Walk on the Water". However, turntablism as we know it now did not surface until the introduction of hip hop in the late 1970s." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother - The Hollies (1969) {YouTube} It isn't listed on the Songs that made it list. We'll get that corrected (It very well could have been lost 2 years ago when the entire list was lost). It is however on the Artists list ..... a good reason to check both. Pinkstones, can you give us another please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
