mspart Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Just wondering what thoughts there are out there. I have a shirt that says "I may be old but I got to see all the cool bands". Very true. I won't list them but it seems like the 70s bands paved new territory and the 80s and 90s bands just kind of followed with small changes. A list of A list 70's bands. Yes, Led Zepp, Bad Co, Heart, Allman Bros, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Styx, Blue Oyster Cult, Pink Floyd, UFO, Scorpions, Ted Nugent, Van Halen, Kansas, Eagles, Who, etc. These were groundbreaking acts. I've seen most of these in concert in one form or another. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrestlingRasta Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) It was the decade after the Beatles truly changed the game. They planted the seed and the great rock and roll bands sprouted from there. And a young man from Jamaica took his ska/rock-steady groove from his neck of the woods, blended it with some rock and a nice funky vibe......and changed the world! Then the 80's introduced music being made by technology. Edited February 16 by WrestlingRasta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Judas Priest, not Iron Maiden so much. Metallica has some good stuff and I can almost play Nothing Else Matters so that is good. I've got it mostly down except the intro. I have it but cannot play it good consistently. Beginning looks like this!! Fairly easy. mspart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is finger dexterity for the most part. There is a stretch that my little and old hand just has trouble with without touching the high E string and muting that F# hit. But I'm getting there. And to ionel - I won't dignify that post with a response. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jross Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 That's awesome! I've been watching and don't have it down. Part 2 and Part 3 is where newbies like me give up for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offthemat Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 It might be easier to do on a $3000+ guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mspart Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 I won't discount that. If I could make a $3000 guitar sound like a $3000 guitar, it might work. Alas, I have a $350 Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top Pro which I love and it sounds like a better guitar than the price. This is a fun song to play and not too difficult except for that beginning part. Fun to play against a youtube backing track. Then I am the guitar. In my head, I sound pretty good. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPhillips Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 The sixties is what made the seventies. @WrestlingRasta touched on it in his post. The door was cracked and Rock n Roll, R&B and singer/songwriters kicked it wide open and changed it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
