Totally Guy Songs (warning-these lyrics may be offensive to women-but maybe not)
It's hard to believe that the Chick's Songs thread has run so hot.
Now I'd like to look at the other side. My all time favorite is, "Her Strut", by good ole Bobby Seger. Next up would be,"Simply Irresistable", by Robert Palmer. "She's Always a Woman", by Billy Joel. "Maybelline", by various and sundry (came from Ida Red). "Your Cheatin' Heart", Hank. "LA Woman", Doors. "Don't Take Your Love To Town", (sorry, that was a joke). "Stray Cat Blues", Stones. (it's no hangin' matter...) "Factory Girl", Stones. "Waiting For A Flatulent Girl", (can't remember) "My Girl", Temps. Rock On Brothers...

"LA Woman", Doors. You know that is about LA, not about a woman? |

There are a few more **** kickers on my list, but Hank is still on top of the list. Then there is the non C/W, popular music market. After Sinatra, who's left. Joe Williams and Tony Bennett while quite good in their own right, come in a distant 2nd. Then there is the folk market. Most are groups although Pete Seeger did some solo work. Lew |

Totally Guy Songs (warning-these lyrics may be offensive to women-butmaybe not)
Totally guy songs: Any and every Iron Maiden song. Anything ever recorded by Rammstein. All songs featuring Udo Dirkschnieder on lead vocals (Accept) Most "Progressive Rock", especially newer bands like Dream Theater and Coheed and Cambria. The extreme lack of women at Dream Theater shows is as obvious as a Star Trek convention. Rammstein is not just guy music, it's women repellant music. If I want my wife to leave the shop, I simply cue up "Mein Tell" or "Reise, Reise" on the iPod, and within seconds, I'm alone! G |

Actually, "That" should have been "The". My typo. The band _always_ pays. Either they pay themselves upfront, which is much more common these days, or under a "recording contract" the record company pays, but recoups the recording/production costs out of record sales. The fact that they had a "recording contract" ("recording" being the operative word), and not a "Distribution deal", indicates the latter. Either the way, the artist/band always pays recording and production costs in some manner, so you're most likely correct in that it was "creative stagnation" in Boston's case. Then again, it could be just plain old unharmonious band politics ... after an unspecified amount of time, bands are worse than the UN when it comes to agreeing on _anything_! -- www.e-woodshop.net Last update: 2/07/07 |

They were noisy in the studio, for sure. I still have a bass rockman around somewhere that hasn't seen the light of day in 20 years or more. It's too bad they couldn't have made a "Pro" line that was less noisy and used switches and connectors better than Radio Shack's cheapest! Oh well ... cheap was better than the 5 grand worth of vintage tube gear it took to emulate in the studio, and that was at 80's prices. I was proud to see someone come in with one ... that way "we" got the sound he wanted without me having to jump through hoops, and most didn't play quite enough for the noise to matter, or the amp was noisier to start with. My only personal "gadget" for the past ten years or so has been a "SansAmp" Bass driver DI. .... it's probably "vintage" now. -- www.e-woodshop.net Last update: 2/07/07 |

Those were the only times I ever needed to gate bass DI's during live shows for non-artistic reasons. G Rockmans actually worked OK live for bass (which we would usually compress anyway for hard rock & metal), but I thought the guitar versions were a tad over compressed for live shows, they make the guitar sound kind of plastic and lifeless. I've seen more guitar players mess up the sound and sustain of an 80's+ Marshall (the JCM's with the "screen" (not vinyl & piping) face) with too many effects. I think I still have a Bass Rockman around too. It made a decent headphone amp. My complaint about the switches comes from seeing more than one change settings (or become suddenly silent) because a switch didn't make properly. But you're right... For the price? Excellent! And for the technology of the time, very small! |
