Don't forget Larry Carlton's solo on Kid Charlemagne!

10 Years Gone is my favorite Zep song - the way Jimmy layers guitars is masterful.

His fastest playing is probably on Kick Out the Jams from Some Enchanted Evening.

Buck Dharma liked to stretch out live on a couple songs: Astronomy (the version off of Some Enchanted Evening is great), Last Days of May & then later Veteran of the Psychic Wars. They also have a song called Buck's Boogie which is basically a 5 minute guitar solo. Buck in my opinion is one of the best guitarists who…

That and Fracture really show what a great guitarist (and composer) Fripp is.

The solos in Gates of Delirium are great because along with Howes playing, Squire is really laying down some incredible bass, its just badass. But the Yes Album is the only one I listen to anymore with any regularity. I am not a fan of Prog Rock but I do like some albums or bands that fall into that genre (King…

I'm wearing pantaloons, does that count?

Did Ratatat have the cheap computer graphics projected behind them with the Cougar that growls - cuz that shit was hilarious!

I used to think Alan Lanier was super tall before I found out the rest of BOC was so small. You just just cant tell when watching someone on a three foot stage how tall they are. Back then if you wanted to get laid but were too short to play sports, picking up a guitar was a good alternative.

Small World… I too played in bands in that same area (81-84ish). One called World 32 was with David Hayes who went on to start Doctor Dream Records. We were also good friends with the members of Human Therapy who played in the same area at that time. One of the bands I spent time with had a rehearsal place in a…

I also grew up in the "Inland Empire" as the valley east of LA was known. Pomona was a dangerous town then as was San Bernardino on the opposite end, probably still is. Back in the early 80's I met the original bass player who was living in his parents house in upscale Rancho Cucamonga - I got the impression that…

I first watched the movie dubbed and thought the same thing but then when I watched it without the dubbing it seemed a lot sadder. I guess what Im saying is the dubbing in this movie is horrible.

They're Awesome!!!

That this is "a thing" shocks even a Snail Headed Victrola..

"Tiger Mountain" is better…

I think this is as experimental a song as anyone is writting today - and its beautiful to boot:

The Lathe of Heaven by Ursula Le Guin has a major plot point that has to do with listening to A Little Help from my Friends - but I just saw the Tevis answer and that is probably it. Mockingbird is a great book.

Was it Mr. Show that had the skit on the Millionaire Hillbillies?

Yes but no one has mentioned that he is a giant. I saw him once and the guy was quite tall. I also once saw Tom Bradley on the streets of LA (back when he was Mayor) and that guy was head & shoulders taller than anyone else in the area. What I'm saying is, "I've seen some big guys".

"Mom, how come the buttons are sticking on the remote?"
