  1. Hard to imagine any machine creating say,...Led Zepps 'Rain-Song' for example.A functioning soul is required for such art as this.

  2. Possibly not amongst his peers ? He didn't have the showman tendencies of say Bonham or Moon maybe ? just a highly capable and professional approach to shaping the Purple sonic canvas.

  3. I was cautiously optimistic this genius would get the Beato experience one day.Such a capable telecaster exponent and his autobiography is one of the best i've ever read.Sting's memoirs ain't too shabby too.

  4. 'The Girl with The Sun In Her Hair' by Barry never fails to inspire.

  5. Definitely something sulphorous about this earworm effluent masquerading as music.440 hertz no doubt.

  6. Plus a gentleman not enslaved to carnal,ego and pharmaceutical peripherals.All about the sound.

  7. Police and the Stranglers. Arguably the quality mark pinnacle of punk derived rock n roll during that early 80's period imho.?

  8.  @Timliu92  And that is the truth of it.

  9.  @danuber5558  Weedy vocals,not a fan.

  10. Love that piano shot of John and Paul.Imagine how much better Pepper could have been if they hadn't foolishly omitted Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields from the album instead of using it for a mere single? wow.

  11.  @aquamarine99911  And his workload must have been off the scale considering his campadres high prowess,especially live and a solo (The muel) thrown in mid concert.?

  12.  @gustavo4475  Brony-Aur-stomp is a killer.Zep and the Beatles make life worth living.

  13. But where's their tunes ? If Stevie's-'Dreams' grade of a song was minted today l doubt it would be languishing in some 'edgy-underground ghetto? It would shake the planets ley lines.

  14.  @marshac1479  Amazing body of work and the theme to 'The Persuaders' hits the spot.Morricone and Barry left us musical jewels that will never be bettered.

  15. Top ten at the high table of rock.

  16. Good point.

  17. Were the Isley Brothers twin-axers ? Jasper's dentist drill soloing was a sound to behold.Who's that lady' springs to mind.

  18. Cut diamond grade level with this gentleman of rock music.

  19. I'd like to be associated with that sentiment.Stills talent levels are off the scale.

  20. Gilmour should have a serious service to humanity award for this solo, Ivor Novello type of thing. I would at least tout a knighthood but we in the UK see how that particular bauble has long been a pompous and empty gesture for decades...i-e SIR Cliff Richard . Rest my case. Gilmour and Knopfler to my ears is as good as it gets for intelligent and spiritual string bending majesty.

  21. And that solo...man alive that frikin solo...

  22.  @world_of_max.g  Met George at a gig in a Manchester tavern years ago and bought him a foaming tankard of ale not really knowing his part in rocks rich tapestry at the time.Great pub-(Witchwood) even had the great Pentangle do a gig with the complete originals.

  23. YES ?

  24. Powerful intro of some delicacy and verve but man those vocals get disturbing rapidly.
    1
  25. Absolutely and their best song in many ways.

  26. Barry on 'Classic Album Review' has some good interviews with Steve Howe and most other greats,Ian Anderson,Steve Hackett,Tony Banks etc,
    1
  27. Hugely enjoyable vid. Think we need a look at Lyndsey Buckingham's -'Never going back again' another six string sorcerer.

  28. RS is a full-on cultural marxist operation and totally redundant,especially now that it has nothing new to feast on.Andy Summers 250 ffs ?

  29. Superior to hdn but less iconic maybe ?
    1
  30. It's not as if anything buyable or playable has existed for at least 2 decades or so anyhow ?

  31. 'Keep yourself alive' by Queen would be my number 1 on Ricks list.
    1
  32. Imagine slipping in a song such as Zepps-Thank you or That's the way, imagining they were freshly penned today ? the incongruity would be apocalyptic in scope.

  33. Echoes of Tull's Ian Anderson with this dude.
    1
  34. And tough on the fingers.

  35.  @federicomita9568  'I feel fine' also with mysterious fuzzed chord.

  36.  @gerardcote8391  'Dreamboat Annie'.Painfully brief but,man,the good vibes of it ?

  37. Ricks contribution to Rock music is unfathomably immense in scope and as charismatic as it gets.

  38. Wow this amply illustrates mr Sheeran's unfathomable ascent into modern minstreldom.It's pure AI and possibly so is he ?
    1
  39. Never took to this aspect of Bowie, suited, booted, jarring, sterile corporate-rock. Give me Ziggy any day, Panic in Detroit, Cracked Actor...that's the great man's true legacy.

  40. Queens-'Keep Yourself Alive' would fit well in this company.Ditto-'Paperback Writer' arguably the debut of quality hard rock.
    1
  41. Shredding has zero appeal to me unless purveyed by the likes of EVH-Richie Blackmore and Jimmy Page with the quality songs to carry the pyrotechnics.Peter Green expressed more soul,creativity and verve without needing to spank the plank in acts of rampant egotism and over violent grandiosity.

  42. Stills-'For what's it's worth' for me,hands down.
    1
  43.  @blasterofmuppets4754  Rolling Stone has long been running on fumes in the journalistic scheme of things.A spent force,zombie periodical.Nancy Pelosi style.

  44. Mean Streets over TAL.
    1
  45. And the Master-Jimmy Page had some fascinating acoustic tunings but probably not in the Joni Mitchell realms of complexity ?

  46. The sewer and heading earths-corewards for a pit-stop and then into the new wing built for Kissinger's recent arrival.
    1
  47. Ricks game,Ricks rules but 'Metallica or Foo-Fighters over Thin Lizzys-'The Rocker' ?
    1
  48. Excellent shout for the Hollies though.That's a cool one indeed.
    1
  49. Magnificent act but very uncool plus the voices sounded...synthetic due to the translation from Swedish to English,took out the nuances maybe ? Adored them myself.'One man,one woman' is beautiful.Ulvaeas/Anderson are up there with Lennon & Mcartney imo ?

  50.  @dcarbs2979  Good points although i'd dispute some,if not all,of those names you mention as benchmarks of 'cooldom' ? Pete Waterman didn't create anything other than flatulent keyboard based earworm dirges and cash register bleeps with SAW's unfathomably bland late 80's offerings.The rest are questionable but i guess cool is highly subjective terminology ? For me it's Lou Reed,Keith Richards,Jimmy Page,Jim Morrison and Stevie Nicks in the cool stakes though.Benny&Bjorn eventually ended up in the domains of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice (Chess musical) and it doesn't get less cooler than those two (certainly not rock n roll) but coolness is no great thing rather than genius and Sweden's finest had that by the truck load.
