Don't wish to brag but I played in a lead, bass, and drums outfit and we NAILED Carry on Wayward Sons without keyboards. Me and the bass player and the drummer doing the 3 part harmonies without the need for the lead singer. People said to me that I did a great job to cover all of the guitar work without keyboards but Alex was my hero and being influenced by him gave me the ability to work out a song for both the guitar and keyboard parts. a good effects board with chorus and echo and a good amp (Classic Marshall JMP 100) helped.

Segue Myles Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I don't know why this was so hard for me. I know I said The Doors. Then Toto, Foreigner and No Doubt. But forgive me I sinned. Best US rock bands: 1. Thrice2. The Juliana Theory3. Jimmy Eat World AFI fourth. The Doors fifth. I was a fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 A lot of American bands burnt out very fast. Very fast. The Velvet UndergroundThe StoogesNew York DollsBig Star All massive influences. All seminal bands. All around for a very short time. Top 3? For now: RamonesR.E.M.Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to look beyond my bias here because Alex and EVH are my two heroes on guitar Nuno vs Eddie Sound wise they both sound brilliant, a photo finish Technical playing - again too close to call. Rhythmic sensibility - got to go with Nuno over Eddie on this one. He is so tight as a ducks chuff playing stuff like this. All round innovation and influence - No contest its Eddie all the way Again just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutlefan Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'll go with Pixies, Nirvana, and Aerosmith through Draw the Line. Lots of great ones though. Hurt leaving behind Big Star; they were something special. And early Cars, B-52s, REM, etc etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
