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

I knew I’d see that meme on this thread!

Keith Richards and Betty White need to get together and have immortal children.

Zeppelin is a great guitar band with a crappy singer that women for some reason like. Sort of a British Guns & Roses.

” He’s a heckuva guitarist, but his music just isn’t for me.”

Sums up my feelings exactly.

Agreed too, but Ronnie Wood and Ronnie Lane were right up there!

Then he met the silly blonde and went syrupy on us

Yuk

Outside of David Bowie, and to a lesser extent Robert Plant I agree with his sentiments.

Elton John didn’t write the lyrics, Bernie Talpin did.

Bernie Taupin

“An overrated midget…”

Keith’s opinion of Prince.
I completely agree.

I saw Prince up close in person when I worked at the Carrier Dome in 1985. He was probably 4’7” plus 5” platform shoes. Of course, he was surrounded by 5 really big black dudes.

Not a stones fan, he’s entitled to his opinion just as anyone else.

Yeah but the song lyrics and style changed after Bernie left. Elton solo is like Phil Collins solo. They both suck. Genesis + Phil Collins was good ELton + Bernie was good. Both are kinda so so solo. tee hee.

Keith Richards put out a superb solo album, “Talk is Cheap.”

The remaster came out in 2019 and it’s awesome!

Wasting bandwidth is what we do....remember hobbit threads....

It’s a tradition much like headlines only

Or thinking the Republicans will save us

A mark of our genius here hon

Keith is only the rhythm and occasional lead guitar player and head music composer for the worlds greatest Rock and Roll band ever

That does interest over half of Freepers I’d wager

For your entertainment

Freepers wax on music

Why do I get the feeling most folks here were disco and top forty people?

So do I. Prince and David Bowie...never cared for their music.
