Making Use of the SDUGF Faves List

[JohnnyGuitar]

Eric Clapton #6:

Layla - with Derek and the Dominos
White Room - with Cream

[donahue]

#20 Adam Jones

Lateralus: From Tool Lateralus. Thats my favorite song ever. Makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up everytime I hear it.

No Quarter: Boxset CD. Yeah its a cover, but a damm good one, very arguably better than the original. Plus its a cover of our list's #2. so double boner bonus

P.S. IMO

[Redmist]

#34 Kim Thayil

Outshined - From Badmotorfinger

Jesus Christ pose - also from Badmotorfinger

The album where I think Soundgarden took that particular stoner metal to another level.

[Pink Unicorn Horsey]

#4 David Gilmour

Dogs - from "Animals"
Echoes - from "Meddle"

+1 Bajillion!

I almost went with Gilmour, and would've gone with "Echoes" in a heartbeat. "Dogs" is another absolute winner.

[SnakeAces]

I love the bassline from Dogs

[Pink Unicorn Horsey]

I love the bassline from Dogs

Also played by Gilmour.

[Leveller]

Dave Murray and Adrian Smith:

Walkin on Glass From their 1986 tour "Somewhere on tour", not heard on any record.

The Trooper From their 1983 record "Piece of Mind".

#10 -Ritchie Blackmore

Too hard to choose two..
Well, here we go:

1. Highway Star (Deep Purple) [Machine Head, 1972]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgZSn...eature=related

2. Stargazer (Rainbow) [Rising, 1976]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnyoy2w9atg
(Sorry, couldn't find any quality concert stuff)

Oh man I was hoping I could get Ritchie.... Anyway you voted for Highway I would have done that too.

#19 Mark Knopfler

"Telegraph Road" - Dire Straits, from "Love Over Gold"

"Speedway at Nazareth" - Mark Knopfler, from "Sailing to Philadelphia"

I was hoping after Ritchie I could get Mark... but lost him too guess I am late.

Telegraph Road is my perosnell fave Dire straits no.

Eric Clapton #6:

Layla - with Derek and the Dominos
White Room - with Cream

And I loose Clapton too amazing oh man... but hey nice choices...

[Jocelyn]

Eric Johnson

Cliffs of Dover Ah Via Musicom album released in 1991.

S.R.V. Venus Isle 1996

[sosomething]

Alex Lifeson:

"La Villa Strangiata" - Rush, from Rush in Rio

"Red Sector A" - Rush, from Grace Under Pressure

I was tempted to drop a new one like "Driven" or "Earthshine" but I think the rockin stuff is covered by "La Villa..." and the more ambient, atmospheric stuff is taken care of by "Red Sector..." so I'm happy with my choices.

[Gamera]

#35 Robin Trower

Daydream from his 1973 debut album Twice Removed From Yesterday. 1980 live version.
Inspired by and an homage to Hendrix. Shades of Jimi can be heard in Trower's playing and he's constantly being compared to Hendrix. Although Robin cuts through much of the fuzz and effects Hendrix is known for and delivers a blues-based rock jam chock full of emotion and signature Strat tones. One might say his playing is more focused than Jimi's and, while definitely blues based, delivered in a rock style similar to Eric Claption's Cream arrangements.

Seven Moons from his new album with Cream's vocalist/bass player Jack Bruce. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeGNpL8g01E
Some 35 years after his debut he still is making music in the same style, this time with another icon of the era. In contrast to the long jam Daydream, Seven Moons is a shorter, radio friendly song with a cool groove that instantly grows on you. Maybe not his best work but another solid blues-rock entry similar to much of his entire catalog.

You're too slow.

The other track was a harder one to choose, I could have taken Pictures Of Home or Lazy or Burn or Mistreated or Man on the Silver Mountain or Kill the King or Child In Time or Black Night or...
But I'd say that Stargazer and Light in Black are the two ultimate Rainbow songs.

[Rainmaker]

Good thing you didn't choose Kill the King... as awesome as Blackmore is on that track, Cozy stole it from start to finish.

...I guess you could say the same for Stargazer.

Man, Rainbow rules.

[Iron Horse]

Rainbow FTW !

Man, Rainbow rules.

I guess you meant that you could say that for any song pre-Down to Earth.
For drummers, Cozy was the man (well not exactly for bluesy or moody or slow)

Which albums, bro?

[Pastor of Muppets]

Jimmy Page:

Bron Y Aur Stomp - awesome acoustic action in obscure tuning from my fave Led Zep album , III.
