Introduction To Rock

^ i got that issue. Its true led zeppelin put together aLL the instruments used in Rock today.

 

NO WAY I spent quite a few hours compiling this list, and even the small writeups per band is by ME
But well these are all record breaking albums during their time, so obviously will be a part of some list somewhere.
This list is very passionate and close to me since I started off in an almost similar fashion.
I am going to send this to Narendra Kusnoor (Mid-Day), to get his review on the same.

 

oh ok thats cool. Good list tho. Its the first REAL list that classifies REAL albums. Even if some are missing. GREAT LIST.

 

listen to the radio guys... if u r in idnia listen to some internet rock station..

one needs the randomness to get initiated..

 

Led zeppelin rules the rock
they were the father of rockers
they r amazing even after 30 -40 yrs

Metallica also Rulez

 

well ur rite Led zep rules

 

amazing thread bandbaaja... that must have taken a lot of time and effort... u really deserve credit...
and also... thanks for mentioning dire straits... very few ppl appreciate or understand the amazing guitar techniques of mark knopfler... its very nice to see it in u'r thread

 

listening to internet radio stations is one good idea.

 

:rock: awesome thread mann!! this really is introduction to rock - great effort , includes lot of my favourites as well. The order is great and you rocks!! bandbaja ................... :rockon:

eagerly awaiting for the concluding part ......................!!!!!!!!!!

 

well acording to the Recording Association of America

1.The beatles
2 . Led Zeppelin

 

Uh... what concluding part???

 

oh ok, if you are referring to a list of more exquisite stuff.
Yes I am planning on that too.
will post it as a new thread sometime this week maybe

 

Recording of America?
never heard of it.

hate the beatles. (with the exception of "the walrus")
And yes Lz is good. :sigh:

 

forgive them my lord, for they know not what they haven't heard

 

You made the biggest criminal act in leaving out what is regarded one of the greatest ever rock ballad albums EVER produced.

Derek and the Dominoes - 1970.
Little Wings, Have You Ever Loved A Woman, Bell Bottom Blues, Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out, I Looked Away and of course Layla

Also the Hendrix albums were VERY influential to guitarists, if you need to provide the QUOTE YOURSELF "Shahrukh, the idea is to introduce people to REAL RAW ORIGINAL ROCK MUSIC, so its obviously going to be nostalgic" so where are the Hendrix albums?

Furthermore to that the Steppenwolf album that contains Born To Be Wild is also a very influential album as are one or two of the Bob Dylan albums.

From my view you have a decent list but not a good one.

 

there is no decent.. no good .. no bad.. and yea of course..
there is no spoon
when i was growing up.. my intiation to "foreign" music was boney m
night flight to venus rasputin etc :
then michael jackson (thankfully thriller which is an all time classic record)
the madonna
i have no clue how i ended up playing classic rock after such an initiation

Thanks for your time and the feedback.

Though I never wrote this article for a feedback, and also I had clearly mentioned that my view will obviously not correspond equally to another ardent rock fan's views.

Also my last paragraph goes as follows:
That’s it then, but please note I’ve left out a few hundred bands and a few hundred albums which I regret myself, but then I guess 22 are enough to kick start your own research on this beautiful subject. Some acts I personally like but are not mentioned here are Rolling Stones, The Who, Cream, Uriah Heep, Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, T-Rex, Supertramp, Black Sabbath, Grateful Dead, Credence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix, Wings, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Queen, Rush, Steely Dan, Traffic... Long live Rock n’ Roll

I personally felt that the HENDRIX sounds and chord progressions were too complicated for a beginner to adapt to (again this is my personal view). Also a good appreciation of BLUES generally sets in later.

Again, I dont expect feedback, its just my personal view and ardent rock fans can easily skip this topic or start a thread of their own

 

your right in that naming 22 albums is too difficult and in reality you should have at least 50 named albums instead. In any case another album to add to the listen list would be The Clash - London Calling and The *** Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The *** Pistols

 

Here I Completely Agree With You
I have missed out the punk era
Apologies.........

Guys viewing this thread can please check out the 2 punk albums mentioned by rabi.
Super stuff!!! These two bands started the punk era in UK

 

hey man what about early 80s?
u missed that too. nightranger loverboy etc they were the inspirations for bon jovi van halen etc u hardly hear them in india. all the classics.
