Grunge...impossible to pick one artist...but how about an album side instead?...ok...Terrapin Station by Grateful Dead....sixteen non-stop glorious minutes that I would take to my grave.
It made me smile to hear that his Mom exposed him to great musicians and provided love and some stability in that abusive household. I was lucky that both my parents were wonderful, and my mom had a passion for good music and didn't give a crap about skin color. She also loved Nat King Cole, like Petty's mom. My mom would put a stack of records on while we did housework. Listening to Nat, James Brown, Broadway soundtracks (like West Side Story), and torch singers like Billie Holiday, Ella, Sarah Vaughn, and Rosemarie Clooney made chores a lot more fun. My mom sang all the time and I really miss her beautiful voice. I wish I had inherited her pipes! Tom was a lovely soul who left us much too soon.
In what way? His ex wives evidently didn't think so. Who would know better? It appears he valued music, money, and "success" more than his own family. Sure looks like he was a typical Hollywood handler. Jane Benyo is an American celebrity, best known as the first wife of the late Tom Petty, who was a legendary singer-songwriter and the lead vocalist of the famous rock band ‘Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers.’ Tom had met her in high school when they both were just teenagers. They had quickly fallen in love. After living together for several years, the couple finally got married on March 26, 1974. At that time, Petty’s music career was blossoming. He moved to Los Angeles with his wife. When her husband was climbing the ladder of success in the music industry, Benyo performed the role of a supporting wife and homemaker. She was Stevie Nicks’s inspiration for the famous song ‘Edge of Seventeen.’ She preferred to keep her life before marriage away from the media and never disclosed much about herself. The duo had two daughters. Sadly, their marriage of more than 2 decades came to an end in 1996, when the couple finalized their divorce. It is believed Petty’s ignorance toward her had made her fall into the web of addiction and mental illness. She never remarried after her divorce and went off the radar. However, she re-emerged when Petty died in 2017.
Phenomenal stuff with the Heartbreakers and Travelling Wilburys. We love a FL boy that makes it big down here. It was a sad day when he passed. A real one. Rest in power, Charlie T Jr.
There are still great musicians recording today, they are just a bit harder to find. The truly talented are rarely "pretty", so these days the great music rarely gets to be top forty. I love Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, and I put their music up there with Petty, CCR, Bob Seeger, and other musicians I loved as a teenager. Another really fun band if one loves old R&B like I do, is Vintage Trouble. I have a huge crush on their lead singer, Ty Taylor; he's like Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, and Otis Redding reincarnated into one high-energy package!😍 Sadly, VT band is on hiatus for now, they've said they are focusing on "family issues", but I hope they return better than ever. If you can listen to their song, "Blues Hand Me Down" without jumping out of your chair and dancing like a maniac, then you might be dead. I can't sit still for that music that makes me glad to be alive!😃🤗😻
I remember first hearing “Breakdown” as a kid in junior high. Then after further listening, I realized Tom Petty was versatile and talented. One of the few artists that aged so well musically. His rock always had a punch and his ballads were really deep and meaningful. I’m 60 now and still listen to Tom Petty, solo or Heartbreakers included.
I graduated high school in '83...and this was my generations Woodstock...It brings back alot of memories..I just cant believe 40 years went by justlikethat.
No matter that I don't wanna be old, I wouldn't trade the 70's (teenager) & 80's (20's) for nothing! Those were the 2 best decades ever. I feel bad for anyone who missed out on them.
He did have that quality. These days, Tom is one of the few things we non-knuckle-dragging native- Floridians can truly be proud of. He never stopped growing as an artist and a person.
I didn't realize I knew so many Tom Petty songs until I went to a concert several years ago. I knew every song and so did everyone else. The whole arena sang every song, it was amazing.
I saw Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers twice in a week's time in 1999! I've been to some wonderful shows and those are definitely in my top 5! Rest In Music! 💙🙏🏼💙
Just a peaceful question . Did Petty do the same set each night ? I saw Clapton 2 shows in a row and was " Sorely Disappionted " As it was a carbon copy show Intro for intro Song for song Outfit for outfit I attended loads of Dead , Brothers , SRV ,,,, etc. Shows Aaaand , was never the same cookie cutter affair !
@@matthewotremba9230 he actually did switch it up quite a bit! I mean, yeah he seemed to play his more popular radio hits close to the same order but, he opened with different songs as well as"closing it. I honestly was pleasantly surprised as I was expecting it to be identical since it was only a few days apart
@@jangles1839 thanx Heard he put on a Great Show On a funny note . At the second Clapton show A girl heard my disappointment as i was telling my buddy what was coming next She yellled over that we should see Springsteen for a Great show We both looked at her and shook ours heads NO ,,,,, a resounding NO
CSNY is truly my favorite band. It reminds me of roadtrips and camping while I was young. Their harmonies are absolutely breathtaking and Deja Vu is a masterpiece of an album
ZZ Top's Degüello has got to be THE best album! Every song has so much style. Tom Petty, R.E.O Speedwagon, the Knack, AC/DC, Bad Company. What a great era!
Tom Petty did THE BEST Superbowl half time I've EVER SEEN,,,him and John Lennon was my favorites of all of music makers ,along with Paul McCartney of course !
Tom, RIP! Love you man, and always will! A true American Icon! Still love him as “Lucky” on King of the Hill!! Just a side note, not to be compared to his great musical career!!
Haha my dad told me one of our forefathers was a Trapper that married a Native American Woman. He also was nicknamed Trapper and married my Mother(also a native American woman) Interesting! I grew up LOVING Tom Petty! My dad was an amazing guitar player but couldn't sing as well lol He was a starving artist with so many different artistic talents! Anytime I got the chance to listen to some Tom Petty, I'd be on it! Every time I went with my best friend I'd get her dad to play it! I couldn't resist asking. At my family reunion trips I'd play Tom Petty at My Aunt's place cuz they had Tom Petty! Anyone else got some Time Petty? I was a kid and just LOVED to hear him sing! I still LOVE me some Tom Petty! I'm so sorry he's passed. He contributed the greatest music in history! Timeless and won't ever get old or go out of style! RIP Tom Petty I hope we get to meet someday on the other side! ☁️🏔️🙏🕊️🌿🤍🌤️
Hints for teaching scissor skills from a retired Kindergarten teacher: ( Cooper is probably too young so just save this idea for later.). Teach your child to "shake hands" with their scissors. That puts the thumb in the top position. Make sure that the scissors have the small loop for his/her thumb on top and larger loop on the bottom for finger grips. If the child is right handed - they need to cut towards the right. Left-handed towards the left - always cutting forward away from their body. An early skill to develop before cutting is paper tearing. Example: Tear a circle, a square, a triangle etc. This provides good eye-hand coordination before needing to use scissors. You could even try tearing out a pumpkin shape from orange paper. Blessings, Janell
The year was 1991. This double cd lived in my cd changer. It was the soundtrack to my "summer of love"; when I met the love of my life. 32 years, 3 kids, and two grandkids later, we still give each other a knowing look and playful grin when we hear any of these songs.❤
let's not forget that musically, Keith Richards wrote 'Satisfaction' during a nap .got up, wrote it down, and I think went back to sleep. the main riff that is essentially the intro which is what the song musically, is based on. Mick I'm sure, wrote the lyrics.
Musically? Musically. Actually, Bill Wyman wrote that riff, but you are correct in that Keith probably was asleep. Keith is credited with increasing the tempo of the riff however. Mick? Are you sure you're sure? Well yeah, Mick would have wrote the lyrics.
@@matthewburris769 HA! Keith sleeping, alright. another story about Bill Wyman being robbed by Jagger/Richard. well, I think Mick Taylor also was robbed. happy now? musically speaking? really, I don't know what the hell I meant by that. but they were stingy as hell toward their bandmates, when it came to writing credits. go ahead and tell us how Brian Jones was treated.
@@tonym994 I always liked Brian, and I think that they could have been a little moreunderstanding of him and his feelings. He was a very sensitive guy andthere was nothing wrong that couldnt have been turned around. They were his family.
@@ziblot1235 I'm not wild about his beating on women, but he was a genuine talent who died really young, and really seemed to have the blues inside him.
Mr Jagger is very insightful in his comment about addiction to debilitating drugs. Supplies and logistics are the primary matter. No matter what you are experiencing, no matter how much you care about anyone or anything, your drug supply has to be secured. It doesn't mean that you don't care. But when you are crippled by anxiety, depression, fear, self-loathing, nevermind the physical symptoms, it takes a superhuman amount of discipline to get out of bed. It's not a matter of morality or dignity. It's simply chemistry and biology. I spent 20 years locked in the grips of a debilitating opiate addiction so I have an informed frame of reference. Im blessed to still have my health and I managed to stay out of jail, but the regrets and the questions of what I might have accomplished without taking that path will probably never leave me. If you have a friend or loved one suffering from addiction, you cannot force someone to quit. They will have to make that decision themselves. For me, just knowing someone still loved and believed in me was enough to give me the strength and determination to dig myself out. If I had been completely abandoned, that would have given me an excuse to die.
I heard quite some time ago that a lot of their music references one of the original band members Syd Barrett, who succumbed to Schizophrenia. Their earlier works were influenced by the lost of their band mate. And even when I listen to Wish you were here, Dark side of the moon, and the Wall, I can definitely hear some inferences to mental health crisis’s and how it effected not only Barretts increasing inability to cope with the onset of his crisis, getting farther and farther away and all his band mates could do is watch it happen. Maybe I’m putting more into it than should be, but knowing the history, every time I listen to any of Pink Floyd’s work, I can’t help but hear it. Their work is astounding. I bought the vinyls, cassettes, cd’s… and now I have them on my phone and I can’t loan them out anymore. ;)
Walking along notorious Newbury Street one day, Rick Ocasek was walking toward me...looking like he just finished a video. Guess he always looked that way. He was so personable, as I had stuck my hand out and just said, "Hey Rick" I think he thought we knew each other or something. That was around 1996. I was so grateful for having lived in Boston before the gentrification. Had a loft space downtown for $460/month --it had a stage, where I would set up my equipment. Rathskeller (The Rat) still existed...and Mr. Butch was the mayor of Kenmore. RIP Butch.
This was fabulous and I’d like some more, please! Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Pat Benatar, Townes Van Zandt. You guys rock and I hold Grunge in high esteem, right behind Weird History!😉🦋
One of the best books I read in HS was "Up and Down With the Rolling Stones" by Tony Sanchez. A must read for any rock&roll fan. BOOK...be, oh, oh, kay ---member those? Keith's book is pretty good also.
Bob Seger went to Ann Arbor Pioneer high school and I once ran a cross country race there, on the campus of the school cater-corner from the Michigan Big House football stadium (a very tough course). I also saw him in his yearbook (1964 or 65?) shown to me by a former classmate. Seger was somewhat of a Greaser in those days, from what I was told. I grew up in what used to be a small town where Bob Seger lived in his 20's: Brighton, Michigan. Seger played many dances at the high schools there (Brighton High and Whitmore Lake High), but he was not as well known as the organ/drums duo Teegarden and VanWinkle, whom I believe he may have lived with in Saxony Subdivision off of Lee Road and old US-23. I trick-or-treated at his house there in about 1970 when I was in 3rd or 4th grade. Seger jumped out of the bushes with a scary monster mask on. I'm sure he must remember doing this. I was more startled than scared, and I stayed on the porch to get my candy when he told me, "Most kids run away! More candy for me!" He also played in a small club in East Brighton somewhat near Kinyon Drive (Fonda Lake), on Grand River Ave across from the Lakes Drive-In Theatre. The club burned down, and the old drive in was torn down and is an industrial park now, I think.
The Rolling Stones did record as Tears Go By and the recording featured a 12 string guitar and I think they played it in the key of G. Danny Whitten wrote the huge hit song I Don't Want To Talk About It.
Black is easily the song of a generation - multiple generations even - and it speaks to feelings we don’t feel safe expressing but know too well. If this song doesn’t move you, you clearly have no soul. To everyone still feeling like you are unsure of your place in this thing we call life, you are not alone. Be well and keep on keeping on. After all, that’s what we, of the greatest generation, do. Be well.
Cameron Crowe could have gotten classic Rock advice from his wife being that he is married to Nancy Wilson from the band Heart but maybe he didnt want to know all of his wifes old Rock & Roll stories lol
The broken radio what is a real thing. They had one in the barracks. That’s where he got that idea. He was a Vietnam vet. He’s a very special gift to the world of music!!
I am a late 50s Rocker Have my Heros , aaand , Jagger was not really one Good music and alllll But , this sorta enlightened me to his perceptions and ideals Thanx
I remember one of the best 4th of July's ever circa 94 or 95. I had my Jeep wrangler . I had just met this beautiful young lady. The night before . I picked her up the next day top down on the jeep. She gets in she had these American flag short shorts . That showed off her beautiful toned legs . Well I start the Jeep up I tell her you look fantastic. She tells me thank you & You look great you're self . Then we shared an amazing kiss . Rite as we locked lips American girl popped up on the radio . We proceeded to have an amazing day and a beautiful unforgettable night.
praise mick jagger. when the day that Kieth Richards found Mick Jagger, the world changed for the good. I realize that kieth richards is the greatest musical icon of... ever? mick is every bit part of the success. Goes for everybody in the stones. Mick can sing almost as well as the dance. the best thing about mick jagger is his style. the old boy has class and respect, for all things right and good.
Tom Petty's death, among all the other deaths that were happening to famous singers and actors of my youth, was so sudden and unexpected. It hit me especially hard. I've always felt that Tom Petty's music was so pure. And he always came across as being different from other singing artists, in some odd, hard to identify, but delightful, way. Hope to see ya later, Tom. Meanwhile, you're missed here. Make no mistake, the open space you once occupied, is immense. Thanks for leaving us all that great music, tho.
I love all of these bands and artist here. they're the soundtrack of my teen years all the way to 60. i saw Todd Rundgren and the New Cars and they were pretty good. I've always been a fan of Todd and the cars. Ben Orr died way too soon. Hard to believe he's been gone more than 20 years. I was shocked and saddened when Ric passed. He and his wife Paulina were so good together and they both had a great sense of humor. Bob Seger is an absolute legend and not just here in Michigan. All of these bands are legends. I'm not a Neil Young fan. I like maybe 2 of his songs. I don't agree with his politics. I mean it's fine if he belongs to a certain party but why bash the other side all the time like he does.Now he's with this "if you keep this guy's songs then I'm taking my songs off of yout music format." Get over yourself Neil, this is America where we have the right to our opinion. Just because you disagree you want to mess up their life? Sad. Imagine being spit in the face by Roger Waters.
oh Bruce, if only he realised in the early days with the E Street Band the love of his was “under his nose” the whole time . I love that Bruce and Patti are together. 🥰🦋
He knew. She was very young when she wanted to join the E Street Band. She was, in fact, 17. He knew he would get into trouble. I don't even count his first marriage. Patti is perfect for Bruce. I don't believe he ever wanted a woman who wanted his credit cards.
Rolling Stone magazine's name had nothing to do with The Rolling Stones. It was a reference to a Bob Dylan song. And I think Bob was referencing an old blues song. So were The Rolling Stones. Holy crap this is going in circles. 😄
we'll wait for you to quit chasing your tail. The RS were huge american blues fans. Ever hear of Muddy Waters? They did NOT , Brian did not, name themselves after 'like a rolling stone'. Geez.
@@matthewburris769 the phrase ''a rolling stone gathers no moss" predates all of this stuff. The magazine probably took their name from the multiple instances of Rolling Stone present when it formed.
CCR was way ahead of there time way ahead ! Band is amazing. And u can still turn on any radio station today and hear them. How many bands can say they still get reg air play?
I just wist MTV would come back again the way they were in the early '80s with the same kind of music,and the same artist at that time, where in the hell did they all go anyways , why did they disappear ? That I can't understand, why does great things have to disappear like they did? Its a VERY SAD thing man !
wow Frampton was excellent. why anyone would diss him as a performer, musician and singer i have no clue. gorgeous and obviously a sweetie. he was in touch with his audience. despite anything idiot reviewers said, or record companies. it's the fans that count , our opinion, not thiers.
Never thought about what I thought VH’s best song was until EVH passed. Unchained was the one song I would offer to anyone who doesn’t know VH and would only listen to one song to get an understanding of their talent. As Rick said, it’s a fool’s errand to try to pick VH’s best song.
This hit #1 on the charts during the height of. Vietnam war. We had a draft and thousands of 18 and 19 yr olds were DRAFTED in against their will. Young people got sick of watching their friends and our friend’s brothers and sons come in a box! You know how many funerals we baby boomers went to? The street protests started and kept getting bigger and bigger. THEN…. Washington Post and NY Times uncovered the classified Pentagon Paoers which said the Pentagon knew…for years…that the war in Vietnam was UNWINNABLE! But corporations were making tons of money making war materials! The public support finally, finally started to erode. Nixon had campaigned on ending the war in 1968, but then expanded it into Laos and Cambodia. The protests became violent. He finally ended the war in 1975! What a waste of humanity! This song hit the charts because it said it all. If you were going to college, you could get a deferment till you graduated. So poor people and minorities couldn’t get out. As long as baby boomers are alive, you will never see another military draft!
Who do you think is the best Classic Rock artist of all time?
Grunge...impossible to pick one artist...but how about an album side instead?...ok...Terrapin Station by Grateful Dead....sixteen non-stop glorious minutes that I would take to my grave.
Well I just LOVE Tom. Have since I was 11 or 12 and Damn the Torpedoes came out. Still probably my best loved album🥰💘💔
so many but uhm, lets see...nope cant name just one
Leadbelly
No brainer LED ZEPPELIN.
RANDY RHOADS greatest guitar player of all time.
Tom Petty was a great artist.. but what made one of the greatest was he was a wonderful human being ❤️

Rock'n Roll Will Never Die.
Still Rock'n from the 1970'sto 2022....
1970 's ??
Rock and roll began in about 1951.
Currently, country is the only genre holding the rock and roll flag.
Running Down a Dream is one of the greatest music documentaries of all time. Love the whole Mudcrutch part. Tom was incapable of writing a bad song
Tom Petty, hands down. 💘
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are, in my opinion, the best American Rock and Roll band so far.
R.I.P. Mr.TOM PETTY... Your missed!!!
WOW!!!! THANK YOU I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT MY FAVOURITE BANDS!!!! AC-DC REALLY HAD A BAD SAD TIME…😢😢😢😢
Tom Petty did THE BEST Superbowl half time I've EVER SEEN,,,him and John Lennon was my favorites of all of music makers ,along with Paul McCartney of course !

Adam,your story about your dad catching you playing his record brought tears to my eyes, what a wonderful man he must have been.
My Sweet Lord my favourite song ever!
Take a look at how Stevie Nicks came to write 'Edge Of Seventeen' ... Her answer is both touching and amusing... Peace...
let's not forget that musically, Keith Richards wrote 'Satisfaction' during a nap .got up, wrote it down, and I think went back to sleep. the main riff that is essentially the intro which is what the song musically, is based on. Mick I'm sure, wrote the lyrics.
Musically? Musically. Actually, Bill Wyman wrote that riff, but you are correct in that Keith probably was asleep. Keith is credited with increasing the tempo of the riff however. Mick? Are you sure you're sure? Well yeah, Mick would have wrote the lyrics.
@@matthewburris769 HA! Keith sleeping, alright. another story about Bill Wyman being robbed by Jagger/Richard. well, I think Mick Taylor also was robbed. happy now? musically speaking? really, I don't know what the hell I meant by that. but they were stingy as hell toward their bandmates, when it came to writing credits. go ahead and tell us how Brian Jones was treated.
@@tonym994 I always liked Brian, and I think that they could have been a little moreunderstanding of him and his feelings. He was a very sensitive guy andthere was nothing wrong that couldnt have been turned around. They were his family.
@@ziblot1235 I'm not wild about his beating on women, but he was a genuine talent who died really young, and really seemed to have the blues inside him.
@@tonym994 Brian jones was the Stones sacrifice
I want to go back to the 80's and Mtv❗
I like these marathons..please do more of them :o)
Mr Jagger is very insightful in his comment about addiction to debilitating drugs. Supplies and logistics are the primary matter. No matter what you are experiencing, no matter how much you care about anyone or anything, your drug supply has to be secured. It doesn't mean that you don't care. But when you are crippled by anxiety, depression, fear, self-loathing, nevermind the physical symptoms, it takes a superhuman amount of discipline to get out of bed. It's not a matter of morality or dignity. It's simply chemistry and biology. I spent 20 years locked in the grips of a debilitating opiate addiction so I have an informed frame of reference. Im blessed to still have my health and I managed to stay out of jail, but the regrets and the questions of what I might have accomplished without taking that path will probably never leave me. If you have a friend or loved one suffering from addiction, you cannot force someone to quit. They will have to make that decision themselves. For me, just knowing someone still loved and believed in me was enough to give me the strength and determination to dig myself out. If I had been completely abandoned, that would have given me an excuse to die.
Led Zeppelin , RollingStones , Queen .
One of the really good ones.
I heard quite some time ago that a lot of their music references one of the original band members Syd Barrett, who succumbed to Schizophrenia. Their earlier works were influenced by the lost of their band mate. And even when I listen to Wish you were here, Dark side of the moon, and the Wall, I can definitely hear some inferences to mental health crisis’s and how it effected not only Barretts increasing inability to cope with the onset of his crisis, getting farther and farther away and all his band mates could do is watch it happen. Maybe I’m putting more into it than should be, but knowing the history, every time I listen to any of Pink Floyd’s work, I can’t help but hear it. Their work is astounding. I bought the vinyls, cassettes, cd’s… and now I have them on my phone and I can’t loan them out anymore. ;)
Walking along notorious Newbury Street one day, Rick Ocasek was walking toward me...looking like he just finished a video. Guess he always looked that way. He was so personable, as I had stuck my hand out and just said, "Hey Rick" I think he thought we knew each other or something. That was around 1996. I was so grateful for having lived in Boston before the gentrification. Had a loft space downtown for $460/month --it had a stage, where I would set up my equipment. Rathskeller (The Rat) still existed...and Mr. Butch was the mayor of Kenmore. RIP Butch.
This was fabulous and I’d like some more, please! Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Pat Benatar, Townes Van Zandt. You guys rock and I hold Grunge in high esteem, right behind Weird History!😉🦋
One of the best books I read in HS was "Up and Down With the Rolling Stones" by Tony Sanchez. A must read for any rock&roll fan. BOOK...be, oh, oh, kay ---member those? Keith's book is pretty good also.
That’s awesome that Petty liked the Marvelettes!
I enjoy your videos, always more
Merry Claytons vocal on Gimme Shelter is epic, that her voice cracked and they kept it lends to the power and mood of the song and lyrics.
Wow ,,,,, learned a lot of things " I thought I knew "
Great Video !
Tom Petty is awesome!!!
Enjoyed this content Thank you
Bob Seger went to Ann Arbor Pioneer high school and I once ran a cross country race there, on the campus of the school cater-corner from the Michigan Big House football stadium (a very tough course). I also saw him in his yearbook (1964 or 65?) shown to me by a former classmate. Seger was somewhat of a Greaser in those days, from what I was told. I grew up in what used to be a small town where Bob Seger lived in his 20's: Brighton, Michigan. Seger played many dances at the high schools there (Brighton High and Whitmore Lake High), but he was not as well known as the organ/drums duo Teegarden and VanWinkle, whom I believe he may have lived with in Saxony Subdivision off of Lee Road and old US-23. I trick-or-treated at his house there in about 1970 when I was in 3rd or 4th grade. Seger jumped out of the bushes with a scary monster mask on. I'm sure he must remember doing this. I was more startled than scared, and I stayed on the porch to get my candy when he told me, "Most kids run away! More candy for me!" He also played in a small club in East Brighton somewhat near Kinyon Drive (Fonda Lake), on Grand River Ave across from the Lakes Drive-In Theatre. The club burned down, and the old drive in was torn down and is an industrial park now, I think.
❤ brilliant analogy
Love all Ur vids guys: thank you👍😊
As I sayed this group is essential to mankind.
Tom Petty and the H .B .s rule the uni- verse.
The Rolling Stones did record as Tears Go By and the recording featured a 12 string guitar and I think they played it in the key of G. Danny Whitten wrote the huge hit song I Don't Want To Talk About It.
Check out the stones version of Dobie Grey's driftaway you can get it on you tube, soooooo good
They did it YEARS later..
Black is easily the song of a generation - multiple generations even - and it speaks to feelings we don’t feel safe expressing but know too well. If this song doesn’t move you, you clearly have no soul. To everyone still feeling like you are unsure of your place in this thing we call life, you are not alone. Be well and keep on keeping on. After all, that’s what we, of the greatest generation, do. Be well.
AWESOME!!
Cameron Crowe could have gotten classic Rock advice from his wife being that he is married to Nancy Wilson from the band Heart but maybe he didnt want to know all of his wifes old Rock & Roll stories lol
the stones did record "as tears go by". it's on the "green grass and high tides" album.
I think you are getting mixed up with the Outlaws song 'Green Grass and High Tides'. The Stones album was Big Hits (High Tide and Green Grass).
The broken radio what is a real thing. They had one in the barracks. That’s where he got that idea. He was a Vietnam vet. He’s a very special gift to the world of music!!
You hold a band audition … and Robert Plant and John “Bonzo” Bonham show up.
Remember his guest starring on the It's Gary Shandling Show? RIP Tom and Gary.
How can you feature Seger and not mention Turn The Page? One of the great FM hits and one of his iconic songs.
KR is REAL! I fully stand behind him!
Mick and me go waaayyyyyy back!
I am a late 50s Rocker
Have my Heros , aaand , Jagger was not really one
Good music and alllll
But , this sorta enlightened me to his perceptions and ideals
Thanx
I remember one of the best 4th of July's ever circa 94 or 95. I had my Jeep wrangler . I had just met this beautiful young lady. The night before . I picked her up the next day top down on the jeep. She gets in she had these American flag short shorts . That showed off her beautiful toned legs . Well I start the Jeep up I tell her you look fantastic. She tells me thank you & You look great you're self . Then we shared an amazing kiss . Rite as we locked lips American girl popped up on the radio . We proceeded to have an amazing day and a beautiful unforgettable night.
Tom's album Mojo is probably his best work. Smugglers cove is genius.
What a shame.. He dies too early.
praise mick jagger. when the day that Kieth Richards found Mick Jagger, the world changed for the good. I realize that kieth richards is the greatest musical icon of... ever? mick is every bit part of the success. Goes for everybody in the stones. Mick can sing almost as well as the dance. the best thing about mick jagger is his style. the old boy has class and respect, for all things right and good.
not really Mick is shrewd and not that nice really
Tom Petty's death, among all the other deaths that were happening to famous singers and actors of my youth, was so sudden and unexpected. It hit me especially hard. I've always felt that Tom Petty's music was so pure. And he always came across as being different from other singing artists, in some odd, hard to identify, but delightful, way. Hope to see ya later, Tom. Meanwhile, you're missed here. Make no mistake, the open space you once occupied, is immense. Thanks for leaving us all that great music, tho.
I have a ZZ Top. Key chain from the songs from the 80 s. I bought it there, we had front frown center stage.
I saw him once and should have seen him about eight times.
Mi piace il rock e lui tantissimo 😊😊😊❤❤❤
I love all of these bands and artist here. they're the soundtrack of my teen years all the way to 60. i saw Todd Rundgren and the New Cars and they were pretty good. I've always been a fan of Todd and the cars. Ben Orr died way too soon. Hard to believe he's been gone more than 20 years. I was shocked and saddened when Ric passed. He and his wife Paulina were so good together and they both had a great sense of humor. Bob Seger is an absolute legend and not just here in Michigan. All of these bands are legends. I'm not a Neil Young fan. I like maybe 2 of his songs. I don't agree with his politics. I mean it's fine if he belongs to a certain party but why bash the other side all the time like he does.Now he's with this "if you keep this guy's songs then I'm taking my songs off of yout music format." Get over yourself Neil, this is America where we have the right to our opinion. Just because you disagree you want to mess up their life? Sad. Imagine being spit in the face by Roger Waters.
If you don't like Neil, do you like Lynyrd Skynyrd?
Love Ms. Clayton
Love Warrens voice. I'd listen to him sing the ingredients of a cup of soup 😀
Linda Rhonstadt sang backup vocals on Youngs Heart of Gold song
I have no issues with that flag. RIP legend.
Against the wind is the story of my life and one of my favourite songs. I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then
oh Bruce, if only he realised in the early days with the E Street Band the love of his was “under his nose” the whole time .
I love that Bruce and Patti are together. 🥰🦋
He knew. She was very young when she wanted to join the E Street Band. She was, in fact, 17. He knew he would get into trouble. I don't even count his first marriage. Patti is perfect for Bruce. I don't believe he ever wanted a woman who wanted his credit cards.
PHILLY USA❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Rolling Stone magazine's name had nothing to do with The Rolling Stones. It was a reference to a Bob Dylan song. And I think Bob was referencing an old blues song. So were The Rolling Stones. Holy crap this is going in circles. 😄
we'll wait for you to quit chasing your tail. The RS were huge american blues fans. Ever hear of Muddy Waters? They did NOT , Brian did not, name themselves after 'like a rolling stone'. Geez.
@@matthewburris769 the phrase ''a rolling stone gathers no moss" predates all of this stuff. The magazine probably took their name from the multiple instances of Rolling Stone present when it formed.
CCR was way ahead of there time way ahead ! Band is amazing. And u can still turn on any radio station today and hear them. How many bands can say they still get reg air play?
After he clarifying im good with what he said in the end and concur
I just wist MTV would come back again the way they were in the early '80s with the same kind of music,and the same artist at that time, where in the hell did they all go anyways , why did they disappear ? That I can't understand, why does great things have to disappear like they did? Its a VERY SAD thing man !
wow Frampton was excellent. why anyone would diss him as a performer, musician and singer i have no clue. gorgeous and obviously a sweetie. he was in touch with his audience. despite anything idiot reviewers said, or record companies. it's the fans that count , our opinion, not thiers.
Never thought about what I thought VH’s best song was until EVH passed. Unchained was the one song I would offer to anyone who doesn’t know VH and would only listen to one song to get an understanding of their talent. As Rick said, it’s a fool’s errand to try to pick VH’s best song.
You forgot to mention that Petty’s guitar teacher in Gainesville was the future Eagles legend Don Felder..
I was scrolling through to see whether anyone mentioned Don Felder as his guitar teacher.
I always thought that Ric Ocasek sang " Drive ", and then it was really Benjamin Orr..........Go Figure..........🤗
DON'T COME AROUND HERE NO MORE IS IN MY OPINION ONE OF HIS BEST!!
I saw CC Revisited with Elliot Easton at Disney World early 2000s. Really bad azz!
Thank you for pronouncing Ocala correctly. 😊
This hit #1 on the charts during the height of. Vietnam war. We had a draft and thousands of 18 and 19 yr olds were DRAFTED in against their will. Young people got sick of watching their friends and our friend’s brothers and sons come in a box! You know how many funerals we baby boomers went to? The street protests started and kept getting bigger and bigger. THEN…. Washington Post and NY Times uncovered the classified Pentagon Paoers which said the Pentagon knew…for years…that the war in Vietnam was UNWINNABLE! But corporations were making tons of money making war materials! The public support finally, finally started to erode. Nixon had campaigned on ending the war in 1968, but then expanded it into Laos and Cambodia. The protests became violent. He finally ended the war in 1975! What a waste of humanity! This song hit the charts because it said it all. If you were going to college, you could get a deferment till you graduated. So poor people and minorities couldn’t get out. As long as baby boomers are alive, you will never see another military draft!
