What are some Paganini pieces that would have greatly influenced Rhoads, Van Halen, and Malmsteen?

I cannot give this ensemble enough praise! The vibes are not overshadowed by the other two instruments. The fast pace bobs and weaves. I have seen each of these guys in different ensembles. I have also seen dozens and dozens of jazz shows in Chicago over the years....by the "younger" generati...

Beginning at 2:00 and for the next 75 seconds LZ delivers one of the most impressive and unusual passages in rock. Ever. Just simply amazing.

I'll try the topical solution in addition to the aural this evening after another difficult day at the office.

I saw Pantera during the 2000 Ozzfest tour. According to Anselmo, the flight barely landed in time for Pantera to perform. He sounded completely wasted when he spoke to the crowd. On the upside, I had never seen such a large mosh pit nor have I since during Pantera's performance.

The shift at :51 has to jump start anyone. Love the groove.

Mikael's voice is so distinctive. He has a sweet melodic voice yet can go the Cookie Monster route when necessary. These guys prog rock and can hang with the thrashers as well. My only criticism is that the slower portions of certain songs are too long. No beef with the uptempo shit. As Mika...

I'm surprised at the ratio of likes to dislikes. Admittedly, Zappa's music is not embraced by motherlodes of rock fans. I love the album. No crowd shots?

I believe the police "took" the band from its room.

Never even thought about forming a band with only banjos. I wonder where this was shot.

Great finale to the trilogy! I wonder what Uncle Al will conjure up if Newt becomes prez (shudder).

What a charlatan and a toad. Feminists too?

Swindlers taking money from people who are trying to buy their way to the next level.

Wars and military spending are making us poor, less safe, and a great recruiting tool for other countries.

This Hall of Fame has too many acts that do not deserve to be in such an exclusive club. Run DMC is one.

Ministry evolved from electronica to an influential industrial band to a fantastic hard core thrash band.

Not sure about the merry go round, but then us Ministry fans pay attention to the music and not what lies on the periphery, e.g., talking on Oprah.

Good cover choice for PB and their drum machine. It is time for me to go see PB again. Guys, get together with HWC and others from the shared imprint!

The video is absolutely splendid. I's love to know whether VK made it. The song matches the video perfectly.

The USA is in decline; 43 contributed significantly, and the middle class is suffering as a result.

This is the way to rock AND make a political statement. No one does it better than Ministry. "We're fighting evil." So is Julian Assange.

Is that a Ministry logo? Haha. Ministry rants that "Fear is Big Business." Check out their last three albums: Houses of the Mole; Rio Grande Blood; and, The Last Sukker. Absolutely brilliant thrash that excoriates 43 and his ilk.

This is the best live rock album of all time!!

I will see The Ex and Ken Vandermark in less than a week. I've seen these musicians approx 5 and 30 times, respectively. I have also seen Nicole Mitchell, Lamb of God, and Hamid Drake a combined 20 times. Obviously, I like your YT channel.

I like the Keys.

Go see these guys in concert and you will be blessed by seeing a band that works extremely hard. Live music captures the soul whereas studio music is more about perfecting the music.

The Ex is coming to town this spring. Excellent gig with Ken Vandermark. It will not be missed.

Great first video jimii3!! All of those involved should be proud of this effort.

In what state are they fishing?

Soundgarden's music didn't transfer well to the stage at Lollapalooza. Rather boring gig. AIC is the best to come from Seattle during the 90s.

This song was written by Jerry Cantrell. Anybody know if his dad served in Vietnam? During last week's concert, the video screen displayed war images and then a second or two of the current Pope. I chuckled at his odd insertion.

Killer cd. I wish Uncle Al and Jello would tour together.

The world needs to see a LARD tour and/or RevCo with Jello and AJ.
