Carl Stalling : Still no takers?

Nope

 

[David Eagar]

Alright class, sit up straight and pay attention!

Hands up all of you that DIDN'T get their beginner's guide to classical music from the Bugs Bunny show? (Yes Wolfgang, we know you are a child genius, you don't have to belabour the point - sit in the corner!)

As I suspected - you have gained a life long appreciation from someone you did not take the time to notice

Carl Stalling was the long time Musical Director of this wonderful show - how much music I learnt from this (plus some laughs too)

For you punishment you will write out 100 times:
"Stalling is God" (sorry Eric Clapton)

[David Eagar]

Who the h#ck is Eric Clapton.

And exactly what planet have you just arrived from?

 

[Ron_dK]

Planet Upandabove, where Jan Akkerman is God

 

[David Eagar]

bbbbbrrrrpppppp - Incorrect answer - As an declared Frank Zappa fan, the correct answer is Remulak (You Are What Tou Is - Conehead)

 

[Salient]

If we are on about classical music then Vangelis (?) or even tubular bells by whats his name ??

Mike Oldfield, theme for the movie The Exorcist

No one has mention Led Zep yet

Put me down for Midnight Oil btw, and also Black Sabbath.

Listen to most anything at the moment having a run on Everything But The Girl, they have some class numbers.

Wrong planet, the more appropriate answer would be :

I'am gross and perverted
I'm obsessed 'n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I'm the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

Have you guessed me ... yet ?

Slow hand Clapton.... (Hope this is a joke)
for a while EC was or still is considered to be one of the greatest guitar legends ever .. depending on your style of music - the noraml rating is
henrix then Clapton
however there are some fantasic rock guitarist who are probably better than EC

 

[David Eagar]

Now there's a thought - what sought of music would Hendrix be playing if he were still alive today?

 

[Rich]

And exactly what planet have you just arrived from?

You've just been Zapped and was it that Carl guy that wrote Walzing Matilda?

 

[Rich]

Now there's a thought - what sought of music would Hendrix be playing if he were still alive today?

Not as good as that of the greatest blues guitarist ever, Mick Taylor

 

[Ron_dK]

You've just been Zapped and was it that Carl guy that wrote Walzing Matilda?

Wasn't that written by Tom Waits ?

 

[Ron_dK]

...the greatest blues guitarist ever, Mick Taylor

I liked Mick , but my vote would be for Robben Ford.

 

[David Eagar]

Not as good as that of the greatest blues guitarist ever, Mick Taylor

a - Now there's a statement! - your on your own now pal

b - I would hope Hendrix would have moved into Jazz/Rock and taken it to where it didn't get to

1983 A Merman I Have Turned To Be has survived the passing of time for me to be the one of his I play the most

 

[Rich]

a - Now there's a statement! - your on your own now pal

Mick had more hits than Hendrix and of course is still going

 

[David Eagar]

OK I am claiming squatter's rights - I set this thread of so I should have some jurisitiction over it, but as we are now heading into The Blues

Muddy Waters (there are probabaly many who are techncally better) but He was the one that Clapton & Taylor and a million others got inspiration from

He was one of the originators of electric blues and the pinnacle is:

A Mannish Boy - END OF DISCUSSION

 

[Bodisathva]

<rap, rap, rap, on screen> hellooo? You would mention Blues with no mention of Robert Johnson? B.B. King? Stevie Ray Vaughan?

 

[GaryPanic]

How about jackson brown ??
or the eagles ??

(Yeah I know I have taken down a difffernt track)

 

[Ron_dK]

Let's move it some degrees to another direction :

What about James Taylor, Joni Mitchell , Steely Dan or Ry Cooder ?
