Good music is timeless... I know kids that like some of these bands, I am sure my kids will like some of the 80's bands I grew up listening... it'll be their version of "classics"...
LOL

A great point listen to Leanord Cohen's music and poetry. The current rap guys have no clue.

It must be a California thing, but nobody has mentioned Quicksilver Messenger Service.

"Happy Trails" One of the best live albums ever. "Who Do You Love" Some of the best guitar work by John Cippolina. No digital effects, no Midi, no digital sampling; just tube amps, a wah pedal, a couple of analog effects, and a custon-made Gibson SG.

**Diegoboy** · 03-12-2009, 10:37 AM

No James Taylor, Queen, or Bad Company?

**longballlumber** · 03-12-2009, 10:54 AM

What about some Genesis from the Peter Gabriel days, some Allman Brothers Band, Marshal Tucker Band, Traffic, Spencer Davis Group

Great Topic!

**Dr. Jet** · 03-12-2009, 11:08 AM

Traffic! and don't forget the Traffic/Cream spin-off group (and more great guitar from EC): Blind Faith.

Apples, you should check into a hospital very quickly. the guys with the white coats are monitoring your musical brain

I note you like F1 racing and you are an Aussie, you are forgiven
