Unpopular music opinions

[Seshmeister]

what, di anno is their DLR????

pffffft.

Is this an unpopular opinion?

[Yount]

Although a cover, I find Just a gigolo/I ain't got nobody to be one of Dave's boldest and gutsiest statements...

[DLR Bridge]

I don't know if this is an unpopular music opinion or just a bizarre confession, but every now and then, I get the urge to blast Say It Isn't So by Hall & Oates. There's just something about that tune. Not sure what it is.

The only Grateful Dead song that I know is Touch Of Grey. And I don't care for it.

Aw...Hall & Oates was kinda cool in the early 80's for a kid. Looking back now...GAY!. But when I was 10, 11, 12 I did like their music on the top 40 radio. And I guarantee everyone hear knows all the lyrics to Private Eyes and Maneater.

Watch out boy she'll chew you up!

I've been campaigning for safer hotel windows.....just so we don't get any more horrible songs.

This i think is the unpopular opinion.

In the band Heart, I always wanted to fuck the brunette & NOT the blonde. Even when she ballooned out. Yeah, I don't get it either.

I feel exactly the same. That voice of hers turns me on well beyond what most women could with more conventional looks. Ann does it for me.

I have been a die hard VH / DLR guy since my youth, by 1980 I believe I bought 8 tracks of VH 1,2 & W&CF

I was dragged to a Grateful Dead concert by a bunch of friends in 87' - there is a lot that is right with the Dead once ya 'get it' - or ya might never get it and not like them - but jerry was fast and clean as a picker, there 2 drummers kept a fat sound and the bassist could thump and funk with the best of the 4 stringers of the world

if .. if .. you want to open your mind to the dead .. try weather report suite for the musicality of the band or Dire Wolf or Stella Blue for the better side of Jerry out front





here is one of their best studio tracks ..

there is a lot that is right with the Dead once ya 'get it' - or ya might never get it and not like them -

It's not that. It's just I have never heard them except for that one tune. All I know really is their fans loved them hardcore, followed them around, and the parking lots were basically Walmarts for every drug known.

EC is one heck of a guitarist but - as a person - he was a dirty dog stealing his best friends wife, going to the bar after his son died & etc..

but... wow - he had some magic in the finger during the Derrick & the dominoes session with Duane - & his 90's? work Reptile is Fantastic imho

~2:15 Warren Haynes goes off -, ~4:00 derrick trucks gets his turn to show off ~5:00 EC has his turn

I'm tired of classic rock radio. I can go the rest of my life without ever hearing another Boston, Foreigner, Fleetwood Mac, Dire Straits, Kansas, ZZ Top or Bad Company song.

Seriously. I have heard their main songs a billion fucking times already. Many times a few times a day. Fucking sick of it already. They weren't the only classic rock bands and if you feel the need to play them, at least go for some deeper cuts for fucks sake.

[Headly1984]

If - you are curious why so many were gaga for the GD

I posted a few that put the hook in me - and I never imagined I would be into the dead I was so hardcore VH before that show

Funny ya mention Foreigner & Bad Co.

I recently tracked through Foreigners 1st and found myself loving it as a body of work - Lou Graham had such intensity and restraint as a singer in his prime - and after tracking Desolation Angels - I found myself liking Bad Co. again - the off the beaten path stuff is better than any new radio play stuff I can find hahaha!

one of my all time favorite songs & favorite albums ..
