On the other side, Classic Rock songs you don't hear enough.

[Doc74]

Other Who songs, not My Generation, Who Are You and Won't Get Fooled Again, they got about 500 more and it would be nice to hear a few on the radio.
More Zeppelin, Hendrix, Cream and more of that caliber.

[Old Moparz]

How 'bout "From The Beginning" from Emerson, Lake and Palmer.   Now there's a great song.

I always liked that one too. I've seen them live 5 or 6 times, but the only time they ever did that song was when they had Cozy Powell on drums instead of Carl Palmer. He came out from behind the drums with a small set of bongos for that one.

[Lowprofile]

Boston, Queen, Van Halen, AC/DC

I'll also add Joe Cocker, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bad Company, Pat Benatar, & Eddie Money

[derailed]

I also would like to hear more older Supertramp. We have a station in Westport NY that plays nothing but B side stuff by alot of different artist. I try to listen to them anytime im up that way, problem is they probably only have a 50 mile listening radius. Im hoping they start streaming. Check out some of there lineup under album feature.

Here's another good radio staion out of Milwaukee that is just over a year old now. They play a lot of '70s and '80s rock. AND, they have streaming air play so if you guys care to hear them, you can give them a listen.

           97.3 The Brew

[Brock Samson]

 'N 'ow about BeBop Deluxe?  anyone else into Bill Nelson?... 

   

[Old Moparz]

Hey Strat,

Those album covers always got my attention in the record stores, but I never heard what they sound like. (Be Bop Deluxe) Who were they comparible to, if anyone?

Bob

[Brock Samson]

 O.K. Now imagine if Bowie was a great guitar player with some jazz chops he might sound abit like Bill nelson who sings that blue eyed soul stuff too,..
another great album he put out in the early '80s was "Vistamix", not as "Rock" but a great collection of tracks in the "concept album" tradition.



The first album Axe Victim as a bit like the first Blue Oyster Cilt album "Secret Treaties"... another fav. of mine...

Oh man Strat, I forgot about BOC Secret Treaties. That is a true classic, back when BOC really rocked.The rock band I was in use to cover a few of those songs, Dominance/Submission, Astronomy.
BTW, Did you know that BOC's first name was Soft White Underbelly??

[Telvis]

I'm not the biggest music buff. I do like AC/DC and Pink Floyd. I don't hear them too often. Probably because I'm listening to talk radio most of the time.

[4cruzin]

I can't stand TALK radio!          I never hear much old RUSH on the radio and if I do, it's usually something off "Moving Pictures" album.   I really like the older stuff!     

[Old Moparz]

I've never heard B.O.C.'s Secret Treaties, or at least I'm not aware of it, but I did go to a bar in Northern New Jersey with friends to see Soft White Underbelly, but they wouldn't let anymore people in that night. They used to still play the bars in the early 80's under that name.

Side note on Rush, I like their first album a lot.

[nh_mopar_fan]

I just remembered another band, Foghat.

                97.3 The Brew

we in southern WI seem to be verry lucky in our classic rock variety..the songs guys say they never hear shocks me. asside from "the brew" we also have "the hogg", in milwaukee playing a slightly more aggressive calssic rock format. I also get 101.5 wiba out of madison. there slogan is "classic rock that rocks"
     a song that i love , that doesnt get much play , except on "the brew" is "Honeymoon Suete"(sp) "new girl now".  for whatever reason that song neads every sterio to go to 11!   I was in my early teens in the late 80s when bands like GNR motly crue , poison, warrant ect were all popular so i miss hearing some of them, but i also like Rush and several others from the early 80s and late 70s..but im sick to death of zepplin!

[TruckDriver]

Thats why I like 105.7 WAPL out of Appleton Chris. I doubt you can get it in though. But if you took ALL of the rock stations in Milwaukee + WIBA out of Madison, you would end up with www.wapl.com Best of the old, and all the new music that rocks. AND no "Lincoln Park" sound alikes.

[andy74]

i like the 80s heavy metal,megadeth,pantera,metallica,metal church-stuff they never really played on the radio to begin with,so it isnt as much of a bother-

[chrisII]

thats what i was into as a "kid" i actually had a verry cool pirated copy of that t shirt with evertyhing but the wrighting backwards.i loved metallica until they cut there hair off an became "listner friendly" anthrax was another favorite. fut those dont really fit "classic rock" lol

  dcg i used to pick up "the rockin apple"  in my upstairs bedroom at my parents house on a boosted antenna i had. at the time i had the higest bedroom in jefferson county. my dad lives on top of the 3rd highest hill in the co and the others didnt have houses on them then. i moved to the downstairs bedroom my freshman year. so that must have ben in like 87? that i would listen to it. but any time im up north i end up finding it.

WAPL plays that stuff all the time. Especially Megadeath & Metallica They really need to have streaming audio.
