Alright, were on number six!!! This has to be my favorite serial thread on this site.  Right now, I'm listening to a show on the new cooking cable channel playing out in the living room.  But sooner or later, I'll be listening to some music and I'll be back... ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

 one of my recent purchases !Currently listening to some excellent hard-rocking and sometimes less hard-rocking music :  Certainly one of their best and most eclectic albums. and the question remains : Where have all the good times gone ? D Lee Roth's vocals remind me a lot of Phil Lynott on the cover of Roy Orbison's "pretty woman" ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |

Some good instrumental prog similar to Liquid Tension experiment and some King Crimson. Also fantastic guitar work courtesy of guitar wizard Ron Jarzombek, Trey Gunn and others. -------------

| They are difficult to categorise, and perhaps too much of a pop band at times, but Radiohead has some of the most beautiful and unusual melodies of the day. At their best, they sound pretty and haunting. Then again, some of the tracks/songs like 'Creep' are truly awful. But I suppose someone who reaches the heights is allowed to reach the depths too. |

^really?  You even said that you weren't that fond of show-off Jazz Fusion from the 70's, right? In my opinion, The Dixie Dregs never really had good tunes, though everyone on board were very capable.

I didn't say I don't like jazz-fusion at all, I stated that after listening to a ton of jazz-fusion bands I currently like very few of them, and Dixie Dregs are among them. They are rather unique, in that they can switch from classical music to country-rock to southern rock or jazz-fusion. Saying that they never really had good tunes is a bit harsh : I absolutely love all their songs, they all have something special. Did you ever hear "leprechaun promenade", "the bash", "broad street strut", or "ice cakes" ? ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |

Date Posted: August 22 2010 at 16:39
I know what you meant...
Anyway, what I meant was that they weren't really good composers, their playing is mainly the highlight in their compositions, in my opinion. And yes, I've listened to those songs, 'Ice Cakes' is one of my favorites tunes by them. But they're by no means a favorite fusion band of mine.
