They'rs a few of us on here at around the same age - remember this??

1987, and a cover version of the classic 'All Right Now'. I'd never thought that I'd ever see or here this again.

Ive started learning how to play this on the guitar, one of the best tunes ever!

HH btw the original is the best!


Hows about this classic too?
Bit of acdc for you, funny thing is I didnt really like them when I was in my teens but like some of their stuff now.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5FWXSnCEZE the guitar from around 00:15 in is so catchy and is another one I want to learn. (still a total newbie at guitar though)

 

[haplesshacker]

How long you been playing guitar? I used to play a lot before I met my wife, she doesn't like it!! Got electric and acoustic.

Most AC/DC stuff is like that, and some is even better.

 

[viscount17]

definitely of a certain age, which is why the original Free track is the one for me. lots of gooood music around then, I was (still am) quite partial to Steppenwolf (Easy Rider - Born to be Wild) - had a lot of their stuff on 8-track from the states

 

[haplesshacker]

Just to clarify, I was not suggesting that it was better musically, but that the internet can drag up stuff that you thought that you'd never remember. Oh, and they look a damn sight better!!

 

[haplesshacker]

Check this out. It is clean, and no gimmicks are used, it's all as it seems!!. I laughed so hard.

HH, Ive got a cort G series guitar and have been reading tabs for around a month and a half, so far can play some of the james bond sequences from films, the main riff from smoke on the water and the opening to the red hot chili peppers "suck my kiss"
I think my dyslexic fingers need bigger gappings between the strings though as some notes just sound so bad as I cant get my fingers out of the way in time.
Im going to persevere though as Ive always wanted to play and did a year acoustic guitar in secondary school and loved it.

This is more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

Reminds me of my club 18-30 days..

From that sort of era, how's about

Nantucket Sleighride - Mountain
Blowin' Free, or, The King will come - Wishbone Ash (or pretty much anything off the Argus album
Freebird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

 

[haplesshacker]

AF.

Yep that was around when I was running nightclubs, not heard that in a long time. Good shout.

BWM, Freebird is a classic, and yet it gets played very little compared to Sweet Home Alabama.

Sparks are just so great, forgot about 'beat the clock' etc.

I think there might be some good stuff appearing here very soon.

 

[nomadpaul]

The keyboard player , Ron Mael , used to really freak me out when i was young.

Don't know about anyone else but whilst Bohemian Rhapsody is a great song , i prefer this one

I'm trying to forget.....especially anything by stock, aitken and waterman....

I think I'm immortalised on one or two of their disks.....yuk......"I only did it for the money!"
