The entire segment on Rush was really well done, starting with Dave Grohl's induction speech. Lifeson's bit was hilarious, and a brilliant commentary on award ceremonies. Loved it. And I'm not even a Rush fan. It should also be noted that John Mayer's induction speech of Albert King, with his demo of various guitar string-bending styles, was informative and even moving as he descr

A pretty accurate fan-view vision of Taylor can be found on William Stout's cover art for the Welcome to New York bootleg In Ladies and Gents Mick T looked like a choirboy. When you see him, looking looser and more mature in the Ain't Too Proud to Beg video, you have to wonder what kind of stage personality he could have evolved into.

As a Faces fan, it was GREAT to see Rod and Ronnie back together again. But when you see the video, Woody is used as sort of a window dressing addition to Rod's group, and does not come across as the pivotal MVP that he was during Rod's Mercury years.

I think he did a brilliant job. He took on an enormous project, and made a lot of very smart decisions, like using only the voices from current interviews (to keep focus on the subject discussed, and avoid the distraction of "look how old he looks now..." ). I know that a lot of people here were disappointed that it didn't cover recent years, however I thought that was another wis

I bought the LP when it first came out, and it had no illustrated credits. The insert, which was printed on a separate piece of paper, not the inner sleeve, was included in the UK copy which I found several years later as a cut out. It looks like the track listing on the inner sleeve of Black and Blue, surrounded by Ronnie's cartoons and comments. It really adds to your appreciation of t

A lot of people voice their unhappiness with the sound of the Dirty Work album, and yet at the time it was kind of the norm to try to stay current with the prevailing 80's sound. (see "Dancing in the Dark" by Bruce ) I was just listening to the Everly Brothers box set, and it came to a song that I vaguely recall hearing them perform, mostly on TV shows: "Bowling Green."

It was 39 years ago, so I guess fashions are bound to change. What I find interesting is how animated Mick Taylor is in the clip. Compared to Ladies and Gentlemen, he really came of his shell with the background vocals and movement. Makes me wonder what he would have been like had he stayed on and played on the '75 tour. we probably would have had a live "Time Waits For No One&

Quotetatters The cover of Neil's Rockin' In The Free World might seem like an odd choice, Not really. Neil's "New Mama" was on the 1975 "Stills" album, and "The Loner" was on the "Illegal Stills" record the following year. I'm sure he's done more Young covers since then. Stephen looks healthy, and it's good to see him back in the game.

Give Me Love never really worked for me, partly because that one piano lick seems a little too derivative of Bob Dylan's "I Want You." In the same way a couple of years later, a section of John's "(Just Like) Starting Over" resembled the Beach Boys' "Don't Worry Baby." But the whole "My Sweet Lord"/"He's So Fine" thing I always thought
