Was in the car travelling this weekend listening to the top 1043 songs of all time...Classic Rock is alive and well, folks. I mean Bob Seger's Down on Main Street, forget about it. This is a beautiful song.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Speaking of Bruno Mars, I had heard of him and seen pictures of him but didn't really know any of his music. I happened to catch him singing on a recent SNL episode and thought he had a decent voice (can't remember what song he sang). I talked to my daughter the next day and asked if she knew who he was and she did and asked if the song he sang was "I'd catch a grenade for you." She went on with the lyrics saying "I'd throw my hand on a blade, I'd jump in front of a train." I told her "man, they don't make men like that anymore." What a shame.

It funny how things work out. I had been looking for this song forever but had forgotten the band name. My cousin posted another cut from the band on FB and boo-yah I found the song. This was Detroit new-wave from the early eighties. I loved this song.

White Rabbit, which was written by Grace Slick and was one of the 2 songs Slick brought with her from the band "The Great Society" when she joined The Jefferson Airplane. In my book Grace Slick was one of the top female rock singer ever, right up there with Joplin imo.
And the other song Slick brought with her to the Airplane was "Somebody to Love" which was written by Darby Slick who was Grace Slicks brother-in-law at the time.

I like Gracie Slick's voice. Very powerful as evidenced by both videos you provided. Good tunes.

One person who impresses me is Dave Grohl. Besides his drum work in bands like Scream and Nirvana, he played with Tom Petty, Paul McCartney many times, Queens of the Stone Age, the Foo Fighters and he has a lot of very good material. For instance the Foo Fighters first album was recorded entirely by him alone, guitars, drums, bass and singing.
Here he is performing "Band on the Run" for McCartney and the president
and here he is playing drums for McCartney on "Back in the USSR"

Manic Street Preachers were one of my favorite bands in the 1990's. I guess it´s a band someone either loves or hates. Many of their songs had critical social lyrics and described the band´s strong stance against fascism of all kinds.
Anyway, here´s two stellar tracks; "Motorcycle emptiness" and "If you tolerate this"

In one of the books on the Doors i've read, it said when the Door's and the Airplane toured Europe together it got pretty insane. Slick would go shot for shot, drug for drug with Morrison and then they would start fighting. Those two were a real combustible duo, like fire and gasoline. But I always thought Grace Slick was a great rock singer, her and Joplin were probably the first two real female rock stars.
I never saw her with The Airplane, i was way too young when they were together but i did see her a couple times years later with Jefferson Starship. When she wasn't drunk on stage she could sing with the best of them but unfortunately she was drunk more then she was sober in those years. But i still loved her!

Good song. A lot of people don't get Lou Reed, but i like his old stuff. "Sweet Jane", "Rock and Roll" and "Heroin" when he was in The Velvet Underground and "Take a Walk On The Wild Side" among others as a solo artist. All pretty good IMO.

Heard this song this morning while out for my run and had to crank it up. Love Motown!! Love The Temps. I really need to get a condensed Motown Greatest Hits. All mine are in Michigan in 45 version.
Love the intro but whole song is great!!

Boy, one of my real regrets, concert-wise, was NEVER seeing either the Stones or The Beatles in concert. To be a teenager during that period was really awesome. I did see The Animals and they were very good.
My favorite Stones tune (among many) is "You Can't Always Get What You Want." But geez, then there's, Gimme Shelter, Sympathy for the Devil and a song that inspired me to name my second daughter "Angie" (your beautiful....)
I always say you just can't hear a Stones tune and NOT wanna get up and dance or at least tap your foot.

Well thank you Goombah, my friend. Since you are granting wishes....the next winning lottery number please?
My daughter and I went to see the Stone's film "Shine a Light" a couple years ago. I was so hoping they'd sing "You Can't Always Get What You Want." They didn't. I assumed that number, perhaps like LZ's "Stairway To Heaven", might be difficult to do live? Anyway great tune.
I never knew Bruce did Satisfaction. Tho, IMHO can't compare to Stones' version, he sounded pretty good. I love when performers encourage the audience to join in on certain numbers. I've been to 3 Rod Stewart concerts and he does the same. It can be a lot of fun.
