#1. Grace Jones- yum yum yum!! i want her to treat me like the dog i am. #2. Twisted Sister- yeah, there are times when nothing will fix my mood better than under the blade or you can�t stop rock n� roll. i�ve seen them live three times & the put on one hell of a show. #3. Queen- the first record i ever bought was Queen�s news of the world. loved it when i was young, love it more now. i still think day at the races is one of the best rock records ever made. #4. Tony Bennett- the man is a classic. get his MTV unplugged album & surprise yourself with just how good he is. what a voice. #5. #6. 80s hair bands- i�m talking bands like Poison & Ratt� basic licks, stupid lyrics, simple hooks, & hair enough for five men. pure �rock out with your cock out�. get your lighters out. (just keep it away from the Aqua Net) #7. 80�s pop rock- think Wang Chung, Men At Work, Loverboy, Simple Minds, Wall of Voodoo, Big Country, Howard Jones, The Cars. #8. Glam Rock- anyone remember Angle? Gary Glitter? Ziggy Stardust? #9. Green Day- their first record kicks much ass & i�ve liked most of what they have done since. no, i don�t think they sold out� i think they sold well. #10. Donald Fagen- the stuff he does with Steely Dan is good, but his solo stuff is out of this world!! i think nightfly is one of the top three greatest records of the rock era. i think he is one of the best songwriters today. i left out stuff that is odd-ball but cool. many of these bands are not �cool� by general standards, but most of the people i know like them, so it is not embarrassing. (Devo, The Smiths, The Cure, Joy Division, Oingo Boingo, Warren Zevon, Squeeze, Violent Femmes, Negativland, E.C.C, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Stevie Wonder, Parliament, etc.) so there you go. feel free to make your own list. ******* hope you all have a good weekend. i�ll post tomorrow or sunday. be well. ******* "My heart lies somewhere between perfection The Glass Rose is associated with perfection, As a Glass Rose, you have a beautiful soul and What Rose Is Your Soul Bound To? |
