Winstonm Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Definitions matter. Is it rock, pop, rock 'n roll, or what? I think the best pure rock 'n roll song ever was Satisfaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 However I have problems with songs released before I was born :). That's funny, over here the young people listen to 1970 music nowadays. Is it different in Spain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberlour10 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 In the category "rock band & symphonic orchestra" I would nominee this...a great piece of vinyl! http://991.com/newGallery/Procol-Harum-Live-In-Concert-W-446940.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggwhiz Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 For our size, Canada is ummm STRONG. Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young and there is no let up from the new(er)bies. How about White Hot - Red Rider and Tom CochraneAnything early by the Tragically Hip and keep an eye on Colin James, Chicks and Cars and a Third World War, Keep on Lovin me Baby etc. He's got it goin. I do sincerely apologize for Ann Murray and Celine Dion but you owe us BIG time for John Denver, Wayne Newton and Honey, I Miss You by Bobby Goldsboro.

mike777 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I don't know about greatest (certainly should be up there) but likely one of the most often played (for obvious reasons) Stairway to heaven. +1 for Stairway The Hendrix cover of All Along the Watchtower is right up there, as is Aerosmith's Dream On. I'd put Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath on the short list, too. Strongly disagree with Mike about Hurricane; I think it's Dylan's best. I'd probably like it even more if I thought Carter were innocent. Best......hmmm you mean his best song ever....no not close.... Lets just start with Like a rolling stone...which many consider the greatest rock and roll song ever. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on his short list, though. It's like "Hey Jude," but not nearly as bad - I've heard radio station countdowns where Hey Jude comes in at #1. For the love of God, it's not even in the top 10 BEATLES songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenberg Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Another thread asks about feeling old. IN the early sixties, the University of Minnesota radio station was playing Dylan before anyone much had ever heard of him. I don't much claim to have good taste but maybe: Lay lady lay, lay across my big brass bed. Or Sara Sara, whatever made you want to change your mindSara, Sara, so easy to look at so hard to define I'm not really all that big on his social commentary except maybe Everybody must get stoned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I said Like a Rolling Stone isn't as bad as the Beatles/Hey Jude thing. I think it's a top-10 Dylan song, but I don't think it's a top-3.

jjbrr Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 With that said, I'm going to try to be a vegetarian all next week and perhaps longer if I enjoy it. Fish, but not bacon, will be considered vegetables for the sake of this experiment. lol @ tofu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjbrr Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 A thread on a different forum got me thinking: if you were to go back in time, say, a couple hundred years, to what extent would you be able to dramatically change society by giving them new technologies, given how much you know about these technologies? For example, I might be able to construct a crude electromagnet or something, but then I really wouldn't know what to do with it. I certainly couldn't give them radios or electricity or computers or anything we use on a daily basis. I'm not certain I could give them steam engines or anything related to medicine. I could give them Pasteurization, I suppose. Is it common not to know very much at all about the things I use on a daily basis? What could you recreate for people of the past? Would you affect their technology more by giving general descriptions of lots of things, much like a prophet, or would it require a very specific, expert understanding of one single thing, like how to build cars, to actually generate any change?
