Get "Out Of The Cellar" And Into The Penthouse Of
raptorcox replied to RUSHHEAD666's topic in Music Of The Spheres
Cellar was one of the first LPs I got in my collection. I played it over and over and over.. well, you get it. -
I am a big fan and almost got to see him at a Clinic once... I always regretted not making that.
-
System of a Down - HOB, Myrtle Beach, SC (2000) Incubus was at the show, that was the only highlight. I had to drag my wife there also. Mr. Bungle was the opening act, and the fans booed mostly.

The Pink Floyd Metal Survey: How many Pink Floyd
raptorcox replied to treeduck's topic in Music Of The Spheres
QUOTE Yes, I love Pink Floyd, and yes I LOVE metal!!! My buddy kept playing the stuff and years later I couldn't help but appreciate Pink Floyd. I did like Gilmour's stuff, but resisted PK for years. As for metal, I like the 80s stuff the best. Dream Theater and Pantera likely are the only ones I prefer past the 80s.. -
QUOTE (Soni @ Sep 26 2011, 07:32 AM) QUOTE (raptorcox @ Sep 26 2011, 01:09 PM) Great stuff. Reminded me of Fates Warning: Fates Warning - The Ivory Gate of Dreams, the live stuff is also awesome. Did Moore still do the keys on this CD? He played keys on a few shows before the studio version was recorded, he left before the Awake tour, so no. Derek Sherinian played on it. Thanks. Learn something everyday

What's the Best Dream Theater album? 2011 updated
raptorcox replied to treeduck's topic in Music Of The Spheres
Awake gets my vote. -
Take the Time Pull Me Under is a close second, however... it was the first track I ever heard by DT and got me to get the CD and into DT
-
Caught In A Web Best track, however.. Lie is not shabby at all. Entire album is very very good.
-
I would say YES - 90125, Dream Theater - Awake
-
Images and Words on the list above. Awake will always be my fav though.
-
The Soul Cages It was bought for me by a friend of mine. I went to the concert the same tour. Back in the day.

The Billy Sheehan Appreciation Thread!
raptorcox replied to RUSHHEAD666's topic in Music Of The Spheres
DAVID LEE ROTH BAND was my answer. I would have put Mr. Big, but he isn't as prominent IMO in the production of those albums compared to DLR's stuff -

I saw Metallica twice on the And Justice... tour. The thing I liked was they would play the first few minutes of a track off the album, then switch up and play another track...
-
The only plus I remember when it came out was that you could now hear Metallica on the radio. However, it was nice not hearing the same songs from them over and over and over again NOW on the radio played ad nauseum. There is a sound-wise improvement with Bob Rock's production that also raised eyebrows on the Black Album.. however, the classic Metallica sound still holds up on old tracks from Kill Em All, etc.
-
Pretty cool. Thanks for the link
-
I didn't care for much of Hagar's stuff. However, it was the only way to hear Eddie, so.... Also, my dad convinced me at the time that it would be OK since Hagar did a decent job fronting Montrose ...

QUOTE (Ancient Ways @ Aug 11 2011, 11:32 PM) Lindsey is awesome Lindsay is incredible. I could understand musicians laying down their instruments and giving it up after watching a master.

RIP. Looks like excess has killed him

I'm guessing we are not discussing the Peter Green era?
