Classic rock radio stations have largely hurt my enthusiasm for AC/DC I probably feel the same way, and more strongly. I could probably go the rest of my life without hearing any of their big singles again and the "all their songs songs sound the same" thing kind of kills much interest I have in trying to replace those big singles with less known album cuts. |

Alright, Alice in Chains was honored by some Seattle museum called the Museum of Pop Culture tonight.
So let's do them next.

Now I'm gonna throw out The Rolling Stones not because I like them, because I don't. I've tried very, very hard to get into them and dragged myself through a lot of their albums but they just never hit with me. Still, maybe some of you guys like them more than I do. Here are a couple of theirs that I do enjoy listening to.

Love the Rolling Stones. I'll refrain from posting their entire Greatest Hits, but some of their best stuff like Satisfaction, Paint it Black, Ruby Tuesday, Sympathy for the Devil, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Gimmie Shelter, and Start Me Up are just straight up immortal rock tunes.
Their absolute best is most likely the aforementioned Satisfaction, of their later career it's probably Gimme Shelter. If I were to bring up some (slightly) less obvious choices they would be stuff like

I personally feel the Stones are one of the GOAT's, one of my favorite bands.
To follow Drac, I'll post one of my favorites that's not a classic of theirs
No Expectations
HBO ran a doc a while back on The Stones, and in one of the segments covering Brian Jones death, No Expectations was playing. You'll see in the clip below Mick talk about how one of his last memories of Brian was picking up his guitar and strumming what would eventually be the opening to the song. It's remained a favorite of mine since.

I've always loved Heartbreaker:
Sticky Fingers is my favorite album from them, and has my favorite "slow" song from them, Moonlight Mile:

We haven't done Pearl Jam yet, so why not?
I'll start off with my favorites from the first three albums:

Favorite Ten track is probably Even Flow rather than Jeremy, which I think is a smidge over-rated.
Love some of their softer songs though, Daughter is cool but Better Man really paints a picture.
Also, Weird Al made fun of Nirvana for having difficult to understand lyrics but Pearl Jam had the greater "what is he saying" song IMO.

Doomsday, we might have lost Screech, but at least Bud Bundy a.k.a. Grandmaster B is still with us.

Not super knowledgeable about ZZ Top. I guess La Grange would be the best song of theirs I know.

Zz tops awesome they went from bluesy kings and just rode that momentum through the 80s with some mixed results (sleeping bag), but came out the other side with their biggest album of their career in eliminator (hit after hit) and cheap sunglasses right before the synth wave which is a fucking jam and one of their closers for a reason.
Heads in mississippi is great, all the hits are great with sharp dressed man being a real toe tapper no matter who you are, waiting for the bus, under pressure, tube steak boogie all class.
My parents were living in Houston at the time of their ascendance, my pops loves em.

Weather is starting to get good again, I need hiking music.
I don't think we've done Talking Heads yet.

Moon rocks, crosseyed and painless, girlfriends better, the great curve, born under punches.
The name of this band is talking heads is their best live album, start making sense is fun but didn't include adrian belew with the fun guitar noises.

How does this movie hold up to kids now. I loved it when I was little. |
