Not sure.."Wherever I may roam"

It can be, but it doesn't have to be. My dad is an awesome banjo player and I can assure you that he is not a redneck. The banjo is actually a derivative of an African instrument and was invented by black slaves. Not all that redneck of a beginning. The banjo is also used in a lot of Irish music. Not redneck. And then there's Bela Fleck, who, while certainly an able bluegrass player, has done a lot of wierd jazz-flavored stuff.

Keep,this thread alive people!We gotta show those hip-hoppin hooligans rock is alive in these boards!!

 

[Sarge]

Wow,surprised someone knows who these guys are.They haven't really blown up yet but they are an amazing band which deserves the upmost kudos.It's good to see they're busy touring instead of making videos.I hope they get recognized soon.



Now are you talkin' post PV Aerosmith?Or 70s Aerosmith?IMO,nothing will ever beat the Aerosmith of the 70s.They were so much more rockin' back then and came out with kick ass album after kick ass album.Even though they were high on every drug known to man. But they do rock.

I've been turned on to Silvertide since I saw them play the WMMR Christmas Jam with Shinedown in Philly. I hope they get huge, because they absolutely deserve it.

And I like songs by Aerosmith from all periods, but the majority comes from the seventies when they rocked hardest.

I really liked Night In THe Ruts,it had alot of solid rockers.It was defintely better than Draw The Line.

"Draw the Line" is worth it for the last track alone. The rest of the album is very good overall, but that last track, whose title I can't recall right now is KILLER.

 

[GI Low Budget]

My favourite band is Pink Floyd, with Queen coming in second. My favourite song is "When The Tigers Broke Free".

it was one miserable morning
in black '44
the forward commander was told to sit tight
when he asked for his men to be withdrawn
and the generals gave thanks, as the other ranks, held back the enemy tanks, for a while
and the Anzio Bridgehead was held at the cost
of a few hundred
ordinary lives

it was dark all around
there was frost on the ground
when the tigers broke free
and noone survived from the Royal Fusiliers company C
they were all left behind
most of them dead
the rest of them dying
and that's how the high command took my daddy
from me

"Draw the Line" is worth it for the last track alone. The rest of the album is very good overall, but that last track, whose title I can't recall right now is KILLER.

That would be the old folk blues standard, Milk Cow Blues. I've got a version of it by the old time North Carolina mountains folk guitarist Doc Watson. It has also been covered by The Kinks, George Strait, Robert Johnson... and many more. The Aerosmith version is the best of the bunch. Most of the versions are characterized by that fine ol' line; "Won't you please.... Don't that sun look good goin' down?"

I have a killer live version of this song taken from the old Mama Kins club in Boston from 1994. The entire disc is the live show recorded from the mixing board and sounds fantastic. The disc is usually called "House on Fire, Aerosmith LIVE, small club in Boston." If you ever get a chance to get this disc, do it! It can sometimes be found on eBay.

Anybody here got Joe's solo album?

With the exception of "Ten Years", that thing kicks ASS!

My fav track is Shakin' My Cage.Damn,that song belongs on one of their albums from the 70s its so good!

You know I got it Cyclops. And yeah, Ten Years is a love song for his wife. Can't really blame him.

There are some great songs on it, and Joe does all the vocals and instrumentation. Except the drums, his engineer handles those. But Joe even does the bass lines. Dang it sounds good and clean too. Listen to it on the DVD side in Dolby 5:1 WOW!

The song "Lonely" to me is the best on the disc. Its right up there with any of the classic Joe Perry or Aerosmith hard fast rockers. What a great song. Its worth mentioning too the song "Vigilante Man" the old Woody Guthrie folk song has never sounded so good as Perry's version with Joe's patented electric slide guitar from hell treatment!

Here's a pic of Joe on the docks in New Orleans of all places... and another in the studio with his American flag guitar.
