In the 80's metal category what I consider one of the greatest bands ever....
Kings X " Summerland "




Or if you want to hear Kings X heavier....
"Dogman"




Or this lyrical gem
"Flies and Blue Skies"

Some stuff I REALLY REALLY like, by people you probably never heard of.

In the folk / singer songwriter category. Vigilantes Of Love, ( Bill Mallonee ) "Resplendent"
Featuring Emmylou Harris.

Used to have a secret crush on Emmylou. lol

Anybody know intermediate barre chord songs for the guitar? I need a song to play for my guitar class.

Smoke on the Water? Maybe not, too simple.
I’m a bass player, can’t play much on a six string. Layla(Eric Clapton) maybe?

Smoke on the Water?

Thanks, I'll look at it.

Bass player hunh?
Do you know who Doug Pinnick is?
Quite an amazing player.
Plays a right handed bass left handed for starters.

See Kings X videos above.

This is a European list? No? There’s some on there like Blues Traveler and Sinead O’Connor that had quite a few hits here in the US. BT is actually touring the US now.

99Luftballons is definitely on my favorites list. That girl sexy! lol Always loved the simple but catchy bass line.

 

[K-Dog]

Probably my favorite one hit wonder song.
"Voices Carry" by Til' Tuesday.



Her voice in fantastic and her range is awesome.

 

[K-Dog]

A close second would be.
"Life In A Northern Town" by The Dream Academy.

I appreciate the fact that there is a *music* thread and a separate hip-hop and rap thread.
