4,14,19,21,23,24,38(omfg how gay...)44,45,46,47,,49,and last and probably
least #50
didnt see any blue oyster cult up there so thats an idiot list to begin
with,kind of missed ummm ted nugent too,not to mention umm pink floyd.kind
of missed that little group called "kiss" too and jerry garcias and bob
weir are not too happy i imagine with being left off such a prestigious
list (ha)that "frampton comes alive" dude i guess deserves being supplanted
by "warehouse" petes album only went triple platinum,biggest selling live
album of all time(still) so im guessin it had a rather minor impact
overalll.btw,peter frampton is the MacShizzle,he can play RINGS around
about anyone youve ever heard ,hes another "not really cool" person that is
not appreciated enough by the general(ignorant) public. go figure.... ____________________ Muaha! |

Just wondering how you think blue oyster cult made a difference in the
guitar? Don't get me wrong they made great music but never made great
guitar playing like a hendrix, EVH,Claption,Townson etc
Peter frampton well is no guitar king..... pentatonic licks that bore the
sh%t out of me.
Just my thoughts. I like guitarist that make goose bumps raise when they
play a riff.
There's far and in between.

=sigh= just shows what a n00by you are.when i was about 18 i bought this
2nd hand "album" called "guitars that destroyed the world",this album
fiirst came out in about 1973 or so.it had people like ted nugent,carlos
santana,alvin lee,randy california,robin trower and buck dharma(lead
guitarist in boc)among others.on that album he plays a tune called "bucks
boogie",its on another blue oyster cult album "on your feet,or on your
knees"too.im sorry that you havent had enough real guitar experience yet to
figure out whats good and what isnt,but if you ll get that recording and
listen to that tune,then try to play it,i think youll change your tune
about mr dharma.also,why dont you try reading a few "guitar player"reviews
about him?im sad for you really because you dont have a clue,totally
clueless and its just the medias fault not yours.and,I GREW UP WHEN R+R WAS
BEING HATCHED SO I CAN TELL YOU THAT YES,BLUE OYSTER CULT PLAYED A HUGE
ROLE IN THE MUSICAL/GUITAR SCENE THAT WAS ROCK AND ROLL,BUT SADLY YOU MTV
KIDDIES WILL NEVER GET TO EXPERIENCE REAL MUSIC,SO ENJOY WHAT YOU GET FORCE
FED.bah and
peter frampton hardly ever plays a pentatonic scale,hes a django reinhardt
student you dolt.

| Blue oyster cult made good tunes however they never sculpted anything
new.Maybe 1 or 2 songs were inventive.The rest is just plain ol rock...I
see nothing new.Thats my opinion. ____________________ Treat people the way you would want to be treated. |

| The first band that I thought of that should of been there was Pink
Floyd...However Im not sure if Floyd was really inventive when it came to
the guitar...If you take everything out and you just listened to the guitar
Im not sure if David Gilmour shaped rock guitar...I like his playing
however if you take away the effects and what not...Your left with a
somewhat blusey but not really blues guitar player...Its slow rock lead
guitar...Its hard to describe Davids playing so maybe he should be in the
list...Its a tough one. ____________________ Treat people the way you would want to be treated. |

| Kiss was not inventive in a guitar sense...Songwriting yes...Guitar
no...Power chords are not inventive...Ace's leads are basic as basic can
be...The same goes for ted Nugent...good songwrirting however not inventive
in the guitar sense...Jerry Garcias was unique...Maybe he should be in
there...Maybe. ____________________ Treat people the way you would want to be treated. |

You see willy2 and ziggy_stardust we have the bye bye switch.
You have continued to break the rules on every post. Offending other
members,posting ads and so on.
This forum is meant for other guitarist to share ideas,learn and so on. Not
to post non-sense and try to stir up other members by offending.
