I've recently been working my way through my 'Old Grey Whistle Test' DVD collection & some of the performances on there are just so much better than loads of more recent stuff, that I've seen (In my opinion, of course).  |
Well Of Corse! All the music these days I guess is just industry orientated! I can't STAND any of it! It's just not music! It's not creative! My Mum luckily got to see Rory just before he died infact, lucky woman ¬_¬. My mum's all ways recommended the Old Grey Whistle Test, I am pretty sure good old Thin Lizzy are on there, ha ha another great thing to come out of Ireland! The Stones were on it aswell if I am right in thinking that? And many more! I am sure my mums got it all on video somewhere!
I think blues does it for me to be honest, faster blues like B.B.King Albert King Freddie King Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Rory Gallagher etc, and all the bands that followed and were influenced by Blues like Led Zeppelin. I think my music genre genrally stops after about 1980!!
A few exceptions to the Rule have to be motorhead though, Rainbow, Thin Lizzy. I would say Deep Purple but they became TERRIBLE after Stormbringer album!! =[
