Tom Petty – Enduring Talent

Classic Rock Lover — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:28:29 +0000

I would think Tom Petty’s songs are well known for their memorable lyrics. I mean I know all the words to all of his hits songs and they are great songs to sing around a campfire or in a jam session. So yes, when I think of Tom Petty, I think of fun times.

U2: Bono’s Charisma

Classic Rock Lover — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 20:57:34 +0000

I love U2’s older material. In fact, when it’s just about the music and no politics, U2 is simply a brilliant band. There’s no doubting Bono’s ability to totally captivate his audience. This performance of “With or Without You” is just stunning. Enjoy!

Canada’s Own Talented Rockers: The Guess Who

Classic Rock Lover — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 04:15:15 +0000

I remember as a teenager listening to this band’s big hit at the time – “These Eyes”. I was such a sap because I was relating to the words in every sense because I was in love at the time. Oh yeah, teenage love…such drama but oh so much fun! I hope you enjoy stepping back in time!

Speaking of Vocals…here’s Bob!

Classic Rock Lover — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 17:23:38 +0000

Bob Seger, that is…
He has a country flair to his classic rock tunes. I absolutely love this song, especially when you’re driving on a long trip…
This is definitely one of those crank-it-up tunes

I’ll never forget the first time I heard “A Criminal Mind” by Gowan. I thought “Wow, this guy can sing!” The fact that he’s Canadian and now the frontman for Styx, replacing Dennis DeYoung, just made me glow with pride.
Here’s Gowan with Styx, in a great video. Enjoy!
