Guest Report post Posted June 3, 2002 Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith ,The Beatles... Some of the biggest names in MUSIC...and i believe these days that term is used far too loosley, namly on rap 'music'. The REAL bands of the past paved the way for rap, r&b and all that other crap, but hey this isnt a flame folder. So who's *YOUR* favourite old school band and why? Personally im all for Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven remains the most kick ass and influencial song in the history of music to me. Also Aerosmith are beyond awesome. This has been the Taker Mark..walkin' THIS way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted June 3, 2002 AC/DC - They were, and still are t a lesser extent - Rock n Roll in human form - Bon Scott was everything that a rock start should be and more, along with the Young Brother's godlike guitar partnership- And 'Highway to Hell' was/is the sexiest, sleasiest album ever made.

Guest converge241 Report post Posted June 3, 2002 The doors, creedence, zep, sabbath, floyd, aerosmith (up to tyler leaving), beatles. Im a sucker for the time period later too late 70's early 80's most of the non-respected bands like styx, journey, foreigner. and of course the early days of what can be "considered alternative" cure, joy divisio, elvis (not pressly duh), the clash,devo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CoreyLazarus416 Report post Posted June 4, 2002 The Sex Pistols, simply because they personified the entire "fuck you" attitude I think rock n' roll SHOULD be about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest razazteca Report post Posted June 4, 2002 P-Funk All Stars as lead by George Clinton and Bootsy Collins!!! The greatest funk band from the 70s but the Rock N Roll lifestyle was too much for the band and they fell apart with drug and alcohol abuse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
