So, what do you put on when you want it LOUD! I'm not talking about the 1812 so the cannons approach live SPL levels. I'm talking about air guitar sceaming :guitar: , body numbing :yikes:, soul shaking (not to mention house shaking) loud :rockon: . I don't get in these moods as often since my "angry at the world" teenager years, but every now and then it's soul cleansing. I just ran some Joe Satriani "Flying in a blue dream" and "Back to shalla-bal" through my audio lab setups (HK A500 with JBL corner horns, Marantz 2270 with JBL L26's, JBL pusing some JBL mid-horns) all running at the same time and it ROCKED!
 
The intro to Sorrow - crank it you feel it in your bones! I'm
talking loud baby! It's a good thing it's @1minute 45 secs.
Sheer electrical power with emotion.
Well that's a start.

Jeff Beck

Either of his latest releases have some sick guitar playing and pounding bass lines that test my little 3wpc SET. Well recorded as well. There's a live track that had me looking out the window to see who was whistling. :scratch2: :screwy: :yes: MikE
 
Muahaha...

Kenny Loggins "footloose" and the next track.. on the Live from the redwoods cd.

Pink Floyd- Just about all of The Wall. Specially some of the tracks on disc two

Eagles- Take it easy, hole in the world, heatach tonight. and many more.

I dunno. theres a few.
 
Carl:

Sorrow?

Like Bowie "Sorrow"?

"long blond hair and eyes of blue,
The only thing I ever got from you
was sorrow" ? Great tune.

I've always been fond of blastin' out a couple live cuts, "Crossroads" by Cream and "One Way Out" by The Allman Brothers Band.

"Goin' Down" by Jeff Beck is pretty hot too.

I may be home alone shortly, so..............
 
Andyman, Nope this one is on topic. Momentary Lapse of Reason,
Pink Floyd. I put most of my 400 watts of McIntosh through my
JBL's. Track 10, as Wardsweb puts it "soul cleansing"
Were talking M.F. ing loud! Not just turned up!

Lately the only album I play at air guitar screaming volume is 'Ten Years After-Live at the Fillmore east.' I love the sound of the bass guitar. I also like blasting the song 'The Trio" from 'The Good,The Bad,The Ugly' the sound of the trumpets and the plucking of the acoutic guitar has to be played loud to be appreciated.
 
Have not had a chance to listen to any Joe Satriani on my latest setup yet. Last time though he really rocked!

Holy Bass lines Batman!
Geespot,
you got some Stu Hamm? Way cool! I got his "Radio Free Albemuth." I had another of his cds, but alas, the ex got it.
Stu Hamm, Jonathan Mover and Joe were doing their sound tests at a local venue a few years back. I kept yelling "STU!" I swear I heard either the band or the roadies laughing!:p:
Then during the concert, Joe and Stu were back to back riffing and there was a pause. I was in like the second row of humanity and I yelled out "STU!" again. I swear Joe smiled!
I never heard "Linus and Lucy" played on the bass guitar until I saw Stu Hamm.:eek:
Way cool!

oops! Try cranking up "baba o'reilly" and "won't get fooled again"
from Who's Next!
That rocks!:pawprint: :pawprint: :pawprint: :pawprint:
