General Music Chat

I mostly like straight forward, basic rock with no keyboards, but there are some songs with keyboards in them that I really like. Here's a few:

-LED ZEPPELIN: All of My Love & Trampled Underfoot
-RUSH: Tom Sawyer and Subdivisions
-VAN HALEN: I'll Wait
-EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER: Lucky Man
-SIMPLE MINDS: Changeling & Theme For Great Cities

Too many to list, man!

Here's a few off the top of my pointed lil headbone -

Green-Eyed Lady - I forget who did that (brain fart)

Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf (or just about anything else they did with Goldy McJohn)

Riders On The Storm - Doors

Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who

Theme From The Bottom - Phish

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway - Genesis (yes, the entire album!)

You Keep Me Hanging On - Vanilla Fudge

There's so much GREAT B3 work on older rock that I think it's a HUGE shame they don't use it anymore. I LOVE that grrrrrOWL!

Sugarloaf Phil.

July Morning - Uriah Heep

Yours Is No Disgrace - Yes

A Salty Dog - Procol Harum

Hoedown - ELP

Steppin' Out - Joe Jackson

Thanks, Jimmy. I have the LP in the basement but I just don't feel like looking for it to cover my momentary lapse.

Marillion did some nice stuff w/keys, too.

Green-Eyed Lady

Oh yeah! Haven't heard that in a while, but I really like that song!

A couple of them of the top of me head.

The Cure - Love Song
I'll Wait - Van Halen

I generally dont go for the organ monkey type of sound, but piano and synth is fine.
B-anything generally sucks.
I can mash levers and make a bunch of warbely noises too.

I sure hope Prevost doesn't see that, Zip...LOL

lol, yeah
I thought about that after I posted.

Its good to rile up the elders from time to time.

Rick Wakeman's "Excerpt From the Six Wives of Henry VIII" off of "Yessongs".

I always liked Jump by Van Halen, I thought it just showed a whole different side to the band. I prefer the old 1st album stuff, but Jump was a huge change. I guess the song Unchained was neat too with the dropped D tuning.

These are basic pop songs thou

I like a lot of Yes and Kansas and the old hard rock band Angel which featured Gregg Giuffria in it. Check out their old song Can You Feel It! I dont know why they didnt get huge, looks sound management, they are on that got away!

Yeah, "gtZip" that reminds me of a Bass player I once knew.
He said, a keyboard player wasn't needed, because, he had all that covered on Bass guitar
Anybody that thinks like that, obviously hasn't had the opportunity to play music with a "REAL" Keyboard player

Really, I love keyboards in rock. Course, I'm a progressive rock fan, so I'm biased...

The Lamb ~ What Philby said

Although I suppose there are 100's of Classic music albums that I could list if I could remember them too.

Good thread this.

I forgot about No Quarter by Zep, man that song sends chills when I hear it and that wah wah guitar line just sounds so killer!
