Rock N Roll

[xmontrealer]

Compulsive Gamblers - "Stop & Think It Over"

 

[xmontrealer]

The Young Sinclairs - "Hurt My Pride"

 

[xmontrealer]

Keith Green - "Girl Don't Tell Me"

With a tip o' the hat to Brian Wilson...

 

[xmontrealer]

Secret American - "I Wanna Know"

Ok, ok. Too tame for rock and roll, but I like it...

 

[xmontrealer]

Back to the classics:

Eddie Cochran - "C'mon Everybody"

 

[Insidious Von]

I have to thank Robo for this, a rediscovery.

 

[ogibowt]

The Human Beinz - "Nobody But Me"

i prefer this version over the original Isley Bros version

 

[Insidious Von]

Deguello has no filler.

 

[Insidious Von]

Fear of Music, another album with no filler. No sure why this is the opening song, who knows what goes on in David Bryne head - brilliant though.

 

[Insidious Von]

Archie and Edith might sing, "Mister we could use a man like Farnkie Zappa again".

 

[Jasmina]

There are a few songs that cross genres just out of sheer greatness, Brickhouse is one of them

I wouldn't classify The Commodores as Rock and Roll, they were funk/r&B/easy listening

Waterloo Sunset is my favourite Kinks song!

 

[Insidious Von]

I hate Christmas tunes, fake songs for a fake holiday. Paul McCartney's is the worst, without John Lennon he's become a degenerate ass kisser.

But I like The Kinks, it's honest.

 

[Insidious Von]

Another album without filler. First heard at The Horseshoe Tavern.

You clearly have great taste! (it's mine too)

I became a rabid Anglophile as a young kid in the mid-to-late '80s, and the Kinks' music was one of the reasons that happened. If there was ever a true 'English" band, it was the Kinks. When most other 12- and 13-year-olds were listening to either heavy metal or New Wave, I was listening to the Kinks, Small Faces, the Who and the like. My friend's older brother was a bit of a reborn Mod and he turned us on to the good music.
