View Full Version : Hunting for some new tunes...
Jailtime 08-06-2008, 01:18 PM Here's what I like--Led Zeppelin and Rush, then Kansas, Pink Floyd, Beatles, Eagles, Grateful Dead, Sabbath, Buffalo Springfield, The Who, CCR, so pretty much just classic rock, progressive, and folk rock (I guess that's what CCR and the Dead are.) So what do you fellow AKers listen to along these lines? I've kinda hit a wall at 900 tunes...not good. :no: hey, and I liked Louis Armstrong's tunes in the movie High Society...so that might open up some new musical exploration :thmbsp:

I can keep listing all day.. just so many out there.. A good idea for you to find new tunes, Just go to Pandora.com and type in one of your favorite artists, then it will start playing other similar ones, or pick a genre

I found a copy of some sort of Dutch import "Greatest Hits" on the swap pile at the dump. It has White Bird on it, and it's in good condition. I'm happy.
