Ryan is a more technically talented musician. Pearl Jam is sounds better to my ears _________________

Rush's Fly by Night is a Volkswagen commercial now. Don't know how I feel about that...
I'm from KC, and live in Nashville now, but I lived in Philly when I signed up for this account. There is actually a bar in South Philly that is all Chiefs fan. If you know the stereotype about Philly sports fans...it's true....times 1000...So having a pack of Diehard Chief fans roaming around was sorta like awesome. |

I would label Tom Morello as more unique than everybody else...I've heard them some live, I don't remember it sounding much different from the studio...but I could be mistaken. _________________

The thing about Morello is that what ends up on the album is already improvised. Rage is roughly two decades old, and they still sound so different then anything ever, and it's because of Morello. _________________

By the way, McCready makes no attempts at remembering the original riffs/leads...he is known for playing spontaneously and by feel. That's part of why they have such a huge following...people can crank the studio versions anytime they want, it's great going to a concert not knowing quite sure how it's gonna be played, but at the same time maintaining a high quality.
Also, maybe a better way to convey what i'm saying is to use the Beatles as an example, since i'm not a fan. Ryknow is more skilled at his instrument than any of them as well, but to say that he is more musically talented than any of them just wouldn't be right. |
You're comparing alternative musicians to a metal artist. The difference in popularity from the general public is so huge that it's immeasurable. Your "but to say he's more musically talented than the beatles just wouldn't be right" is like saying any of the Pro Bowl snubs over the last 10 years aren't even close to being more talented than anyone who actually WENT to the Pro Bowl. You're referring to popularity, not talent.
If you want the most talented band ever who was also very popular, it's Rush. Easily. Hands down. Rush. |
Talented at their instruments, yes I agree unless it was the Who (isn't voice a talent?) Songwriting and well placed notes are also talents...isn't it the drummer from slipknot who's super fast and talented, but he can't hold a candle to Neil Peart because he's doesn't have near enough creative talent.
An example of being popular without much talent is Nickelback not the Beatles...and I enjoy them both about the same. _________________

When you have a guitarist that is willing to play guitar with a drill, pull out the amp cord and use that as well as just finding strange ways to make guitars make interesting noises...that's innovation. And Bigs, I couldn't agree more _________________

I'm not sure what you mean...plenty of guitarists use first take or created on the spot solos on the album version. _________________

Rearview, I like your mind set with your handle. Awesome, dude. Jimmydee: simple, Jimmy (my first name) and Dee (wife's name) ala Jimmydee.
Sixty five years here, and an OLD blues fan. BB, Albert King, etc. Played drums from Viet Nam to Ethiopia, to all four corners on the road for several years. Big Eagles fan (showing my age, I guess - Glenn is my man) but Marshall Tucker, etc. is my bag. Band in the KC area for 8 years was "The Old Farts Blues Band".
Now you got me reminesing....guess I'll go home a put some CD's in, grab my Makers Mark, a good cigar, and play for several hours.
What a welcome relief from having to think about our Chiefs. Thanks guys. _________________ season ticket holder from 1977-92. Personal friends with many retired chiefs. Great times. |
