You know who I forgot to mention???!   Burton Cummings, the great voice of 'The Guess Who'.  He is still going strong today having just released his CD 'Above The Ground' here in the U.S.   He is still a great talent as a songwriter and a vocalist - and who doesn't sing along with any 'Guess Who' tune that comes on the radio???    "Clap For The Wolfman

Pete Ham and Tom Evans along with Mike and Joey of BADFINGER !

-garrod kemp

Oh my high school tunes!!! Love Badfinger. That band had one hell of a fantastic sound! Too bad Ham and Evans are not here with us, what a tragic loss. Don't forget the Beatles, and another of my favorites is CCR with Forgetty's unique voice!

Rush, The Who, Boston, Kansas, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, Black Sabbath and all of the Ozzie iterations, all metal 80's hair bands.

Nazareth is cool! Given that their biggest hit was a Joni Mitchell song,

 

 

Hair of the Dog was a Joni Mitchell song? Confused

Maybe you meant, "Love Hurts?" Hmm

Air Master Modeler

Now lets not forget Rush, Scorpions, Anthrax. and a litle pop metal from say  Ratt and Poison.Bow Down

Poison?

This may explain the modeling rut. Next time you are out at the shooting range ask for a 'Poison' CD...

'PULL'...shotgun fires...Poison CD explodes!

Please for the love of life erase all the 'Rock of Love' shows recorded on your PVR.

Bret's motorcycles have more charisma than the 'gals' on that show.

Anyhow this should have you enjoying building again, post some WIP's of the completed Phantom.YesCool

Metal of all sorts, everything from vintage Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple all the way to some of today's bands to a point.  Metallica, DLR-era Van Halen, AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, UFO, Rush, even obscurites such as Hawaii (Marty Friedman's first band) and Picture (a 1980's Dutch heavy metal band whose records were never released in the US).

Gone but not forgotten:

Jimmy Hendrix, Randy Roads, Stevie Ray Vaughn.

One can only guess how much further these three would have elevated music and guitar playing if they had lived longer. Your music lives forever! RIP immortal legends of rock \m/MusicHeadphonesYesCoolHeadphonesBow Down

Having seen most rock and metal concerts of the late 80's and early 90's I have a favorite three bands that I will go to great lengths and expense to see when they tour:

AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Van Halen \m/

On the heavier side Metallica's first four Lp's are each classic ground breaking metal which each and every song kicks$1***$2

'Kill em' all'

'Ride the Lightning'

'Master's of Puppets'

'Justice for all'

Rawk! \m/

Over all favorite:Star Steve Ray Vaughn. StarCheck out 'Live at Montreux' him playing 'Texas Flood'Cowboy

Well, of course a tip of the cap to The Who, The Stones, Cream (Clapton), Hendrix, Zep, etc. But my faves are Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Rush, and I must add KISS. Became a fan after working with a local tribute band in the late '90s. Seen the original live 3 times, all in makeup. The show really is larger than life.......

Oh, and after spending 3 1/2 months on Dragon's M2 halftrack, it's finally done. Pics to come shortly.......

I would have to put up a rather long list, instead I'll just offer up Carlos Santana. I was never a big Santana fan but I saw him in concert at Shoreline around 1993 (with Steve Miller and John Lee Hooker) and that changed my opinion, he does a great live show. John Lee Hooker was pretty amazing too, he was this very old looking man who needed assistance getting on stage, and just sat in a chair, but he could still play and sing. He must have really been something to see in his prime.

Steve Miller was great too, but he was the one I was actually going to see, so I expected that.
