music..need recommendations.


Recommended Posts

So I've realized that I haven't got any new music lately. and Well when im out there working on my car I have the same play-list that I always put on and it's getting kind of old. Does anyone have any good recommendations? I'm open to ANYTHING and EVERYTHING. i don't discriminate. promises! any good bands would be super useful. :D

by the way the sex pistols are awsome for more then there music.

sexpistols_hof.jpg

 

The Sex Pistols have opted out on appearing at their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

 

The groundbreaking English punk rock group officially declined the honor -- to be handed out March 13 at a dinner and performance at the Waldorf Astoria in New York -- in a crudely scrawled, mispunctuated handwritten message posted on the band's Web site Friday.

 

"Next to the SEX PISTOLS rock and roll and that hall of fame is a piss stain," the statement read. "Your museum. Urine in wine. Were (sic) not coming. Were (sic) not your monkey and so what?"

 

The statement slammed Hall of Fame voters as "music industry people," and excoriated the high price of attending the exclusive event -- $25,000 for a table, "or $15,000 to squeak up in the gallery."

 

It concluded, "Your (sic) not paying attention. Outside the shit-stem is a real SEX PISTOL."

 

Other 2006 inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame include Black Sabbath, Blondie, Miles Davis, Lynyrd Skynyrd and industry executives Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss.

 

Susan Evans, executive director of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, said of the band's announcement, "They're being the outrageous punksters that they are, and that's rock 'n' roll."

Athiarchists are sort of speed metal, and only a 2 piece band.

 

Johnny Dilks is good OLD SCHOOL country

 

And Hank Williams III is kick ass old school country one minute, psychobilly the next. He sounds a lot like his grandpa.

Since I'm a tenor sax player, the list of my favorite tenor players would take until tomorrow to type and adding a list alto players could make the server crash.

 

If you like to dance you need to have every Tower of Power recording and piles of James Brown, any recordings from the STAX and STAX/VOLT catalogs, the Meters, Doctor John "the Night Tripper", Neville Brothers, Professor Long Hair, Parliment Funkadelic, OJays, Kool and the Gang, Commodores, Prince, Sly and the Family Stone, Headhunters, Papa Grows Funk, Los Hombres Caleinte, Temptations, Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Graham Central Station, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind & Fire, Ohio Players, Bootsy Collins... Uh you know!

 

If you don't know what fusion is then when you get through most of this music you will be ready for it.

 

If I had to be stranded on a desert island and only had ten recordings to take with me for the rest of my life: John Coltrane's Giant Steps and a Love Supreme, Miles Davis Seven Steps to Heaven and Kind of Blue, Louis Armstrong's Hot Five Sessions, The Sonatas and Partitas for Unaccompanied Violin and Pablo Casal's recordings of the Bach unaccompanied Cello Suites. Chick Corea's Now He Sings, Now He Sobs & Return to Forever, Light as a Feather, Art Tatum's the Pablo Complete Group Masterpieces...

 

Oh no! I would have to have some of the Joe Pass Virtouso Recordings too, that makes eleven, I cheat.

:thumbup: very good music taste!

 

my step father used to force me to listen probably every band/artist in your list. He doesn't have to force me anymore haha. and I actually had herbie hancock playing on my ipod today blasting it in my car.

 

He was/is professional musician and I used to spend all day going through is vinyl. Probably why I still go buy vinyl now. He used to play all around portland for years and years until he moved to brookings, or. where the music scene is as good as dead.

too bad. he is good at everything he does, he is just a little out of his mind. well i guess we all are.
