Was going to post Gary Numan's "metal" because of it's influence on electronic music but The Cars kicking Candy'O live is pretty sweet.



Here's Nightspots off of the Candy'O album (linked below to keep thread uncluttered) that features Hammer-on's and octaved notes slurred up and down the neck...live in 1978.

The octaved notes being dragged up and down the neck is the bread and butter of most all new hard pop bands today but you won't see it from anyone else but Tommy Iommi and a few select others back then.

On the 11th the early lead singer of The Grass Roots, Rob Grill, passed away at the age of 67. Here's one for some good rock and roll.

One of my favorites, root...thanks!

Mine too.

A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then it's smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you

I think it's strange you never knew

Makes no sense whatsoever.

But then again, it does, if you stop, and don't think about it.

It's kind of an obvious/popular one, but I love that song to death and have also been listening to it a fair bit lately! He has some great songs, old Elton. :)

A live version of "The Green Manalishi", written by Peter Green and performed live by Fleetwood Mac at the Boston Tea Party in 1970. Danny Kirwan played the lead guitar parts in this song, and Green (perhaps the best guitarist in the world at the time) played a Fender VI 6-string bass. The whole second half of the song consists of Green on bass and Mick Fleetwood on drums. It's awesome!

Any bass-player that thinks that Jaco Pastorius was the ultimate bass-player should give this a listen, keeping in mind that Green is first and foremost a guitarist. I would love to have known the guy back in his prime before mental health problems laid him low.

BTW, Green Manalishi was Green's embodiment of money (root of all evil). Green wanted to give away all the money (except for expenses) that Fleetwood Mac was making, because he felt it was wrong to keep it. The other band-members disagreed, and he eventually split with them over the issue, much to the detriment of the band's sound and creativity.

did not know that Green Manalishi was a FM song - still prefer Judas Priest though
