What Do You Think About "Shredding"?

[JiveTurkey]

Such a renegade.

Don't make me start responding with Reo Speedwagon song titles

It's okay. I can roll with the changes.

Furious George has a few tricks up his sleeve

Makeup and hairdob tricks for sure.

The only things I can shred are cheese salad and veg.
My fingers & brain have never worked together in sync.
Probably why I was a drummer percussionist for 40 years of my life.

I still think material like this was a great context for Yngwie---even if he
has wanted to murder every singer he has ever worked with.

Said older brother should be bitch slapped. Kilroy Was Here - of all Styx albums? The self-indulgent and self-masturbatory Dennis DeYoung "Magnum Opus" concept album that pissed off the rest of the band? Reaaaaaalllly?

Observe:

He passed away a few years ago (colon cancer). But he was one of those guys that listened to all kinds of stuff, pretty much anything popular in the early eighties was his jam. I can’t fault him, really, because he turned me on to a lot of stuff-and not just music.

He actually tried with Graham.
This is one of my favourite YM tracks. I like the whole album.

What about Steeler with Ron Keel?

I'll just leave this here for anyone who likes a well-written song that runs through all the gears.

DAT GUITAR SOLO!!

That had to be Hipgnosis album cover art.

Album Covers was so much part of the experience, today it does not exist

Absolutely. Buying a new album back then was an event. The cover art, the liner notes, it was immersive. And no skipping tracks- you dropped the needle and settled in for the next 22 minutes.

It certainly was. I used to sit with my new Elton John album and read, sing, and memorize every word.

I know many of us are around the same age, and started listening to music when we were very young..., anyone else here used to think the bands were actually playing the songs at the radio station?

He did himself in, but such is the nature of addiction.
