Moonraker Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Ok, I have found a guilty pleasure. Playing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, I have fallen in love with the soundtracks of some of the Emotion 98.3 station, some of the Flash station, most of the Wave 103 station and of course the VRock station. Emotion 98.3 playlist: Foreigner - Waiting For A Girl Like You Kate Bush - Wow Squeeze - Tempted REO Speedwagon - Keep On Loving You Cutting Crew - (I Just) Died In Your Arms Roxy Music - More Than This Toto - Africa Mr. Mister - Broken Wings John Waite - Missing You Jan Hammer - Crokett's Theme Night Ranger - Sister Christian Luther Vandross - Never Too Much Wave 103 playlist: Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Two Tribes Sugie Sugie Sputnik - Love Missle F1-11 Gary Numan - Cars The Human League - (Keep Feeling) Fascination Blondie - Atomic Nena - 99 Luftballons Kim Wilde - Kids In America Tears For Fears - Pale Shelter Corey Hart - Sunglasses At Night ABC - Poison Arrow A Flock Of Seagulls - I Ran (So Far Away) The Psychedelic Furs - Love My Way Animotion - Obsession Spandau Ballet - Gold Thomas Dolby - Hyperactive Romeo Void - Never Say Never Flash playlist: Hall & Oates - Out Of Touch Wang Chung- Dance Hall Days Michael Jackson - Billie Jean Laura Branigan - Self Control Go West - Call Me INXS - Kiss The Dirt (Falling Down The Mountain) Bryan Adams - Run To You Electric Light Orchestra - Four Little Diamonds Yes - Owner Of A Lonely Heart The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star Aneka - Japanese Boy Talk Talk - Life's What You Make It The Outfield - Your Love Joe Jeckson Stepping Out The Fixx - One Thing Leads To Another VROCK playist: Twisted Sister - I Wanna Rock Motley Crue - Too Young To Fall In Love Quiet Riot - Cum On Feel The Noise The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon *Rockstar's Lovefist - Dangerous Bastard Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes To Midnight Loverboy - Working For The Weekend Alcatrazz - God Bless Video Tesla - Cumin' Atcha Live Autograph - Turn Up The Radio Medadeth - Peace Sells Anthrax - Madhouse Slayer - Raining Blood Judas Priest - You've Got Another Thing Comin' *Rockstar's Lovefist - Fist Fury David Lee Roth - Yankee Rose Most of these songs I have come to know by heart by playing this game so long. Some I hated at first and then grew to love simply because of the game. There are quite a few up there I should be ashamed of, lol. Sorry for the long post, but Rockstar definatly outdid themselves with this game by adding in all this music from the 80's to make the game really feel like it takes place during that time. *Rockstar's Lovefist is a fictitous band in the game that plays a part of the story. During one scene in the game, the drummer is refered to as The Professor for diffusing a car bomb (where have I heard this before) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting back on topic, I think all the best guitar/singer duos have been put up, how about the best guitar/singers as the same person? I am rather fond of: Pete Townshend - The Who, solo stuffs David Gilmour - Pink Floyd Paul McCartney or John Lennon, either works - The Beatles Jon Anderson (to an extent, I saw him play guitar ) - Yes Ian Anderson - Jethro Tull Curt Kobain - Nirvana Brad Nowell - Sublime Jimi Hendrix - Himself I'm sure you all can find more.

rushfreak Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I haven't even seen his name brought up yet so how about Syd Barret and Syd Barret. Syd's voice was so good and when he joined the band in '65' Water's was told to start playing bass so Syd could play guitar. Original Pink Floyd IMO is still way better than anything released since then, except maybe Animals. Syd could also play a wide array of other instruments, I think on 'Live at Pompeii' he only plays piano with very wide eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umm...... Syd WAS (is) a talented, troubled individual, but that's Rick Wright at Pompeii. Syd was long gone by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Immortal Randy Rhoads was mentioned in the first post w/ Ozzy. Vai is great, but who would he be paired with? David Lee Roth maybe? He did one album with him I think... We've slipped slightly off-thread here. We're trying to compile a list of the best lead guitarist/lead vocalist (non-main-instrument playing) combo.

Rhiannon_of_Rivendell Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I forget though, are we also adding best dual lead guitarists to this or will that be a separate thread? The Allman Bros. Band would be a good addition to that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheels can take you around, wheels can cut you down This doesn't really fit the criteria, since Boston had (has?) two guitarists, but I've always been partial to Brad Delp and Tom Scholz.

Test4VitalSigns Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 QUOTE (BSG @ Oct 9 2004, 09:20 AM) Ok, here's a few. (It's amazing how much you can recall AFTER the fact of a brain-storming session.) Pat Benatar/Neil Geraldo (let's not forget the ladies) David Bowie/Mick Ronson (see above ) Ray Davies/Dave Davies of The Kinks Rod Stewart/Ron Wood of The Faces Ok, I guess we should consider- Jon Anderson/Steve Howe - because Jon is definitely a lead singer/frontman, and although Steve works primarily within the framework of the Yes ensemble, he is definitely a guitar legend (and darn old-looking, too! Have you seen this dude lately? ) I saw Yes a couple of months ago and Steve looked ANCIENT! Gordie Howe looks younger than him... P.S. for those of u who don't know who Gordie Howe is, he's a Hall of Fame hockey player who is now 80 i believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Test4VitalSigns Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I don't know if they would qualify since they do have 2 guitarists but what about Eddie Vedder and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
