Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
There were a number of excellent bands playing at the time of the Beatles who should have got in on the pole. In respect of the choices I think if you where around at the time or brought up with the Beatles there’s no contest ……Oasis is good standard bearer for them in the 20th century but that all they are….as long as The Beatles continue to sell they’ll live on.

What you should perhaps ask is what are people opinions of The Beatles top ten recordings….

One Question, why Rock "n" Roll as a title? :)

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
I don't think I can vote on this because I don't think it's possible to judge these three on any of the same criteria. - Beatles were innovative and exciting at the time but ultimately only made three minute pop songs. Pistols were also innovative and exciting but they were also reviled by people at the time, it is only later that their influence has become recognised as valuable to a generation. Oasis are derivative and basically just copycats yet they make some cracking good records.

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
Reason why I really can't vote is because I'm not fond of any of them. Now let's talk about Cliff Richard in his heyday, he was more Rock n' Roll than any of them when he started out. Everyone's views of him are skewed by 'Daddy's Home' and 'Mistletoe and Wine' but before that he rocked!

There was a time when I could sing every one of his pre 1980s hits. How we change eh?

I can't imagine how you can even try to compare Cliff Richard to The Beatles;
The Beatles invented Rock'n'Roll, Cliff Richard was just a pin-up, he is the most annoying person on the planet who is NOT a musician and has never wrote a song of his own..oh wait yes he did - wired for sound - what a great song that was :rolleyes: cliff richard is just bad smell that won't go away no matter how much you tempt him away with prune juice...

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
Woody the Beetles didn't invent rock 'n' roll. They started off, like a lot of other British groups of the time aping their American idols like Carl Perkins, Elvis, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Gene Vincent etc.

The Beetles did go on to change the face of music when they found their own style, just as the Sex Pistols shook up the music scene in the mid seventies when the charts were full of bland pop such as the Osmonds or dire concept music like Tubular bells, and prog rock

Nothing's ever really original. The Beetles were influenced by their American idols who in turn were influenced by county, hillbilly as well as black gospel singers. The Pistols were influenced by the underground New York scene, and bands like the Patti Smith Group and the New York Dolls.

I'm a pillock? I'm not the one trying to immitate Cliff Richard am I you prune.
The only thing worse than being Cliff Richard is actually wanting to be him....you disgust me.
And don't bother using ageism to determine my musical knowledge - i can tell you that i know a lot more about what is important in music - like NOT to immitate has been 50's pin-ups.
you tool.

And you prove my point! You weren't around when he was in his heyday (actually neither was I but at least I can remember the tail end of it). He was the British Elvis Presley - and when any one act that is around today manages to have a hit in the next five decades I will concede to your musical knowledge.

PS - on this site, it's rude to pick up on other people's spelling mistakes!

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
Ok Woody, so you want to impact on the web as much as you want to impact on the music scene. It takes style, opportunity and class to be a Rebel and you are no where near I afraid. No I didn’t imitated Richards I knew is songs and sung them in my own voice, perhaps like you do today with the people you enjoy listing to and your taste in music... In the post I made earlier I pointed out what I saw as your inaptitude in respect of your interpretation of a music scene you know little of through experience and credited you with making a valiant attempt at gaining the opinion of others. The pillock remark was for the comments you made in respect of another poster. Unfortunately you have only succeeded in changing my opinion of you from a nice lad who wanted to be one of the gang and make his mark, to just another disrespectful juvenile idiot... You don’t learn about music Woody, you live it.

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
what makes you think you know everything there is to know about music and the web?
i dont have to prove anything to you but here goes...
all i wanted to do was to get a little bit of opinion about real music in this forum where all there seems to be is a load of waffling on about power ballads.
it got out of hand, i admit that.
i care about music more than anytihng, it's my life - so in response to your earlier comments - i most certainly do not want to be labelled either a 'rebel' or 'one of the lads', im just me - i just care about music ad have strong opinions about the particular music i love.

and i most certainly do LIVE music.

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
I have voted for the Beatles because they are the best band ever.
I like oasis.
Woody has Cashgman say's the Beatles wern't a Rock 'n' Roll band.
My 1st love is good old fashioned Rock'n'Roll.
Elvis is the King of Rock 'n' Roll with Cliff being Our British eqivalant and every bit has good.
People that are constantly slagging Cliff off have nevery really sat and listened.
Have no taste.
Or are closet Fans.
No Woody I'm not a wrinkly with a closed mind.
I Love M&M. I like Oasis,The Verve to name but a few.

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
The Sex Pistols rock and roll?:confused:
The Beatles rock and roll?:confused:

The above are representatives of two totally different musical genres.

Woody, at 16 and a Beatles fan how can you criticise Gayle for being a Cliff Richard fan and not being around in his hey day? That strikes me as somewhat ironic.

Personally there are others I prefer above those you have mentioned. Why limit the selection to those three? What about the Rolling Stones? The Kinks? Manfred Mann?

I do tend to agree with you on one point, that I prefer people who actually play instruments to be classed as musicians rather than vocalists who are precicely that - vocalists, and as for "boy bands" the word "band" is a total misnomer when none of them play a musical instrument. "group" would be more appropriate and yet us old fogies used to call them groups in our day when they did play their own instruments.

Out of those 3 I picked The Beatles and yet my favourite song at the mo is by Oasis. (go figure)

not opinion woody,fact= rock n roll began with white people playing r@b in the mid 50s,the part of it infiltrated by country music was called rockabilly,it all came to be called rock n roll in the 60s. the beatles were classed as a pop band, the rolling stones r@B/ rock n roll, NOT my opinion but as classified in the encyclopedia of popular music, don't get the hump again i'm just saying the way it is.;)

i've been listening to a lot of The Kinks and The Verve lately; both absolutely brilliant.
i read somewhere yesterday that The Kinks' You Really Got Me' was the first heavy metal song - it baffled me at first but listening to other bands around at the time - The Kinks were one of the 'heaviest' bands....the guitar distortion techniques are so ahead of their time.
My favorite track at the mo is Let There Be Love by Oasis, absolutely brilliant - it isnt in the same category as all the other 'brilliance written in 15 mins songs' by oasis such as live forever, wonderwall, dont look back in anger and champagne supernova, as, according to Noel Gallagher - it took him 7 years to write!
The shared vocals on the track are sublime....very Beatles, very beautiful.....sublime. lovin it!

Have to clarify - not a Cliff Richard fan of now! But if I'd have been the right age when he first appeared I know I would have been a fan then! PS - he was even prettier than Elvis at the time.

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
Ive just voted and I dont mind admitting,it had to be the Pistols.I was at that age when the punk era kicked off.Good on them for livening up what was at the time a boring music industry.If it werent for them half of the bands going today wouldnt have used their influence.Although you could probably say the same with the Beatles,if it wasnt for the pair of them you probably wouldnt have been able to listen to a great band like Oasis,as they regard both the Pistols and the Beatles as being their major influences.:cool:

Yes but his acne was much worse than Elvis's. No competition in the beauty stakes.

When in a very early episode of Coronation Street, Ena Sharples called him that 'little chubby Cliff Richard, it made him start dieting like mad in real life.

The best all time and yet most underated group has to be Queen. Beatles aside they have actually outsold everyone else!

Oh, and lets not forget Marillion! A real class act! also underated!

shakermaker 09-11-2005 13:37
Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
Wouldn't say Queen are underated; just that Freddie Mercury is overated in comparison to the rest of the band. Brian May is a guitar legend, John Deacon is a brilliant bassist and Roger Taylor has to be one of the greatest drummers of all time.
Not a patch on Mental Moon though!
There's an extremely underated band; The Who - in my opinion they were every bit as good as the Beatles and progressed in to new forms of rock music brilliantly
(and Roger Daltrey's scream on Won't Get Fooled Again always sends a chill down my spine...pure rock brilliance)

He's Irish (ex Planxty) who sings in Gaelic and in English and has produced some very emotive stuff if you're into that kind of thing which I am. Some lovely sweet gentle things too.

Quite right, Garinda, but you've missed out THE major touchstone of rock 'n' roll - jump blues. This largely forgotten musical style was the bedrock of the rock 'n' roll revolution. Some like Elvis used it as a stepping stone to create their own musical style; others like Bill Haley simply produced a watered-down version of jump blues that was acceptable for white radio stations in the US. Listen to Bill's wimpy cover version of Shake Rattle & Roll, then lend an ear to to Big Joe Turner's original. Big Joe blows the kiss-curled one out of the water!

It's just your personal taste.

I can appreciate that someone is good even if I don't like their particular style of music.

I know someone who idolises Daniel O'Donnel but personally you'd have to pay me to go to a concert of his!

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
no contest i will tell you why
didnt like the pistols i was a" bootboy" they could hardly be described as r&roll demi gods
oasis were alright during the whats the story morning glory era .and after that they lost the plot the verve were far superiour..and theres something i find offensive about that liam one ,if he came leering @ me ,the way he does the press i'd stick one or two on him!!!
so that leaves the beatles music great timeless ..still here after all these years .and will be still around when the two aformentioned bands have long gone !!

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
im also a great fan of the verve and richard ashcroft but just a question iv been asking verve 'fans'; would you still think the verve were as great if bitter sweet symphony wasnt released?

geoff70 02-12-2005 22:31
Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
yea man one tune doesnt make the band, i saw the verve at slane castle and they were awesome , btw also supporting were the manics, and robbie williams which goes to show how big they were at that time .its sad because not long after they split , back to the bitter sweet symphony it was a good tune for them to realease because it got them noticed by the totp crew you know the teeny boppers that worship anything junk that simon cowel or waterman or walsh churn out, imho these fellas are ruining the british music scene,butthats beside the point .have a listen to urban hymn and the northern soul cd and i bet you will find a better tune than bitter sweet

shakermaker 02-12-2005 22:38
Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
nah man lucky man is by far my favourite verve tune - but on the wider scale of the whole music 'scene', i think bitter sweet syphony is by far the best song ever written.
history is a crackin tune though.
cant wait for Ashcroft's new album in January - its already made my 2006!

Re: Rock n Roll kings
 
the beatles first and foremost .....each beatle was independantly skilled and didnt need the rest to create.......plus they had the most variety of tunes
which is very important in music.......twas ironic that lennon sang about a
workin class hero when he was educated at a grammar school but still the music was good .....as for the pistols i wouldnt *iss on them....the only reason they got known is through their anarchistic behavouir and shocking
temprement which hyped up thier publicity, (no big deal nowadays)
people fell for it and the rest is history.....oasis are next best ....(in the three)
and did i hear anyone knocking our clifford? ...shame on those sheep who do..
he has been the only artist in the entire world to stick to his word and not become a sex obsessed coke sniffing hypocrite (or baghead) ....and just because he kept his vow you knock him .......he did say after all he would be
a batchelor boy until his dying day! nuff said
