Classic Rock YES! ( and others..) What are you listening to right now?

[ARL67]

Was heading to the hill yesterday afternoon ( solo ) and this forgotten song came on the radio. Had to crank it up to 11, had my fingers tapping the steering wheel, and doing my best seated shoulder dance. It definitely put me in the mood for some energetic laps !

10cc - Dreadlock Holiday

Jeff beck and now David crosby. Two big time classic rockers. I saw CSN around 2010 at Wolftrap in Virginia and they were still really really sounding good. Southern cross brought down the house.

I missed the David Crosby mention here, but @MountainMonster mentioned him in his random stuff thread a week or two ago.

Wow, so little love for Crosby? This track from one of my all-time favorite albums always blows me away. The harmonies, the bright acoustic guitar, the spare bass notes, Garcia's pedal steel, and Joni's closing harmony on the last line give this song an ethereal feeling reflective of the lyric.

Nice, sounds Pink Floydish

I always liked this contribution of his to the CSN catalog, Guinnevere:

New topic: Not exactly classic Rock, but surely classic Pop, we lost Burt Bacharach yesterday. Amazing songwriter, so many great artists performed his songs. My wife and especially my parents really liked his stuff:

Yes, very sad about Bert Bacharach, he did such nice music.

That is an interesting collaboration, I will admit I liked the second song better than the first but that is just me. Thanks for sharing.

I'm listening to my jam band running through George Harrison's Isn't It a Pity for the first time ever last night. Far from perfect but not terrible for a first try.

Drummer singing. I'm playing lead and slide guitar.

Since this is the Classic Rock thread I wasn't sure if anyone heard the rumor, since the Rolling Stones are without a drummer they are going to team up with Ringo Star and while they are at it Paul McCartney as well to play some music. What do all you Classic Rock fans think?

I'm all for it. Ringo and Paul could use some schooling on rock and roll, and the Stones can provide!



Seriously, why the heck not?! Could very well result in some fantastic synergy.

In memory of David Lindley who passed earlier this month.

David Lindley (musician) - Wikipedia

I saw him once at the State Theatre in Portland, ME. He was accompanied by a percussionist, Hani Naser. It was a show like nothing I'd experienced before.

That man spanned a HUGE arc of music!

I'm just a music fan, no expert critic, but that video had me imagining Lindley and Sonny Landreth on stage together......RIP David!

EDIT: Gotta love the "Tubes Rule" sign in the background.

We went to see the Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew Remain in Light tour in Boston last night. An awesome show! They played a lot of Talking Heads favorites.

That's a nice tune but not classic rock, 10 to 15 years too late. When that tune came out was early 90's, right when I met my wife that came out, we just watched it together thanks for the post.

Sorry never mind my comment, I thought it was a classic rock thread, looks like an any tune thread...

No problem, and honestly half of the time I never know what category fits

Happy to hear it was a flash back to a good time

The vinyl sounds better than the cover looks
