Are you a Mike Portnoy fan, then?
Or prog in general?
Disturbed does a decent job with
“ The Sound Of Silence”
"She Said, She Said"
"Alone Again Or"
"19th Nervous Breakdown"
"So You Wanna Be A Rock & Roll Star"
"Piss On The Wall"
"Lawyers, Guns and Money"
"Love Is The Drug"
Big buzz around Greta Van Fleet, sounds a lot like Zep.
The author is not at all conceptually correct because Rock Music is now so diverse and has developed so many factions that there does not exist today any sort of unified audience.
Affordable home studios, more affordable instruments, and digital distribution together did what the courts and public outcry were never able to do: they effectively killed payola dead dead dead. And without corporate control clamping down on what was heard and how big a library could affordably be collected and transported the audience fractured.
All of which is a very, very good thing.
Viva Michael Robertson and Greg Flores.
Berry, who died a few years ago, lived in a residential neighborhood in South Central Los Angeles. He would often be seen strolling around the neighborhood wearing a sea captain's hat.

Yeah? Thanks for that tip I will check this out.
“What I Like About You”
An awesome and underappreciated song. I saw The Romantics about 20 years ago. They still rocked!
JJ Cale “The River Runs Deep”
Muddy Watters “Baby Please Don’t Go”
Waylon Jenning “Waymore’s Blues”
Johnny Winter’s “Mean Town Blues”

Oh yeah, I love Portnoy. And yes, a prog since the first Yes album. Guilty as charged, m'Lud!
By the way, in that Universal Mind cut, that was Portnoy crawling over to Jordan Rudess with the sign reading "Keep Playing!" Petrucci's amp had gone out. That whole thing was an ad lib. Just damn.
>>Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi were not blues musicians. However, they knew enough about music to know any band worth its salt had to be able to perform certain standards at any time.
Hire legendary studio musicians as your backing band
Good list.
I think a classic all guitarists should know is Blackbird by the Beatles. It’s a wonderful song.
This was the lineup for the first hour or so for our band.
What do you consider the first Yes album? Yes? Time and a Word? The Yes Album?
Just curious. Peter Banks never got the credit he deserved. That said, Steve Howe is my guitar hero.
