From David Bowie to Led Zeppelin: 6 legendary artists that Keith Richards hates
faroutmagazine ^

Posted on 06/07/2021 9:36:11 AM PDT by mylife

David Bowie

Oasis

Prince

Elton John, he never really got on with the ‘Your Song’ singer, “An old bitch… his writing is limited to songs about dead blondes,” Richards once said of the Rocketman without so much as a second thought.

Led Zeppelin, “The guy’s voice started to get on my nerves. I don’t know why; maybe he’s a little too acrobatic.”

Metallica

As old as he is, I am surprised he didn't mention Mozart or Pachelbel... 😎

Boy, was I pissed. I really used to enjoy Pink Floyd, and have never been able to listen to it the same way since then.

If only Keith Richards had been able to induce Pachabel to take some of that Acid or Heroin, maybe Pachabel wouldn't have inflicted so much harm on this poor soul:

Never heard of Rob Paravonian but Pachabel’s pretentious critics will be long dead while Pachabel’s works perpetually laughs at their infantile rants/deconstruction just like any other critic.
People like what they like, music is subjective, simple or complex, doesn't matter.

I don’t listen to Led Zepplin often,
but when I do, so do my neighbors!

Heavy Metal ripped-off Wagner in general.

You go down the list, every artists rips-off their influences, so what.

However in terms of legitimate plagiarizing, Led Zeppelin (Or producer/co-writers) is the worst of all in that regard (As far as popularity/benchmarks).

Taupin married Maxine Feibleman a Jewish girl from Vicksburg Mississippi his first of many


That might explain the song “Dixie Lilly”.

ages ago, mick wanted Rory Gallagher to join the band.

I think Keith wanted Steve Marriott to join, but Mick wouldn't have it.

It was a joke, that’s all. I wouldn’t take it seriously.

I was really hoping to see Marriott and Frampton reunite with Humble Pie.

Actually the video made me laugh, however, in the end it’s “Ok, let’s see your compositions now”.

I admit, I found humorous because I’ve never had anything but affection for theater piece of music… :-)

I’ve always found it charming and endearing, and I never stopped to think about the musicians who might have to play the same thing over and over again.

Of course, this comes from someone who played a bass drum as one of my first musical experiences, which is basically playing the same thing over and over again!

I used to think that too, it’s a convenient way to to dismiss it, but even a cursory look shows it went much, much farther than “show business”, Jagger in particular was deeply involved, among others, with Kenneth Anger, in film making and other projects.

There is undeniably an undercurrent of really sick, twisted stuff with a lot of these guys, that continues to this day.

That was fantastic! Thank you. My fav GH song and this performance was incredible. I actually think Prince was terrific. Then, again, I am not a Stones fan(don’t shoot!) and do like Led Zeppelin. lol
