And I don’t mean that as a slight. I like both AC/DC and Zep. Just saying that AC/DC is the Milwaukee’s Best to Zep’s Microbrew
How is it possible to say someone is the white trash version of something else and it not be a slight?
if you grew up in certain areas of the US this is the only answer full stop upstate NY is one of those areas
I envy the people who were unaware of Free Bird, not because I think it’s a bad or overrated song, but that means they’ve never been to a show and had some drunk asshole near them yelling “FREE BIRD” at the band.
So found out she’s got OF (Shocking, I know) and here’s some good stuff from it https://www.erome.com/a/CSkSHxnm Shows her face some too
Post 1977 skynyrd is a fucking tragedy and an entirely different time, but they were unbelievably talented and technically awesome at full strength.
I’m not responsible for drunk Beo takes the morning after. Once I wake the takes belong to the night before. Sorry statute of limitations has expired.
Here is my hot music take, if The Eagles are posers for taking on a country/western persona, what does that make CCR? They all grew up in the Bay Area and made swamp rock.
Ehhhh Back in Black is one of the more remarkable things to happen in Rock & Roll history, imo. To have someone like Scott die suddenly, and then replace him with another guy, only to release one of the biggest albums in history 5 months later...
I absolutely hate Back in Black now. I've probably heard that song over 200 times between the radio, bars, and sporting events.
My hot take is that if it's good it's good. If there's a band doing Louisiana swamp rock better than Creedence that's actually from Louisiana, point the way. Until then, I'll be listening to shit tons of Creedence because it's excellent.
I was in the car with my 16yo two weeks ago when Born To Run came on the radio so I gave him a bit of a history primer on Springsteen, and towards the end of the song he said "Wow this guy really can't sing" I like Back in Black (I have the CD) but then again I like a few things that Van Hagar did too. Neither measures up to the original, tho
I stop and listen every time I hear Tuesdays gone. Some of that is nostalgia for Happy Gilmore, but it’s a great song all the same
