I'm getting old.......but one of the benefits of being my age is that I got to see the greatest evolution of rock ever..........I had older siblings & I remember listening to the Beatles early albums on record players (not stereos). The only guy I wish I would've seen was Elvis......not because I particularly like his music, but just to see the fanfare. But hell, I don't wanna be that old.
I love rock.......

"listening to the Beatles early albums on record players"

MUGG, If you are old then I am ancient.

#6 Posted: 1/22/2012 1:43:56 PM Can't imagine what it would have been like to sit and watch The Beatles in the Studio. I listen to recordings of them laying down tracks but man. They were special and one of a kind.

I am not a big fan of his music, but Prince was a great musician. Purple Rain was excellent, and he wrote many songs for other artists. |

Not in my world.
I would've liked to have seen both. I've seen recorded shows of both & I can see both are great. But after seeing the "DSOTM" tour by Roger Waters I've confirmed my own thoughts/feelings about Pink Floyd & their place in rock history.

#11 Posted: 2/6/2012 1:40:51 PM Floyd will never get full credit for being as influentual as they are.
I like all those Best lists on VH1. I usually don't agree, but they make for good tv. |
