Recently, ever since I started smoking I've enjoyed music waaayyy more but I've also come across this new love for Classic Rock & Reggae I guess you could say. So, I'm looking for more songs/bands like Pink Floyd and Bob Marley. If you guys could please help out by suggesting some stuff to listen to that'd be great! Peace ✌
Deep Purple, Led Zeppellin, Black Sabbath, Rainbow, Rush Pink Floyd is prog rock so you might wanna check out some of the 70's prog rock bands such as Yes, King Crimson, Camel, Genesis, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Jethro Tull and this band who I recently discovered.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9sscVftmDU&list=FLPFgCEC98yYhbMBkzq3E7Ew&index=3 Reminds me of 70's Scorpions+Deep Purple with their own unique style.
You MUST check King Crimson first if you're starting out from Pink Floyd and Bob Marley. This shit is going to blow your fucking mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9IQnDRYIYU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H678XUB77OA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osVzBPdbW3c
Every single classic rock band was stoner classic rock...I mean, pretty much. But heres a few to taste. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgtXhDR1zDA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rPGchvLTLc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57HicYcY4Ow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSWUX-uQtuc The Grateful Dead!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weOq4MZ9TVo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1rStGpmboU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjSt5asRfoU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2Z9qN8R9Bg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qgjkr-36d-Y
All good suggestions, give some Yes a go too, this track blew my mind first time I listened to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFOOQ8e5J3A
Led Zep, Rush, Black Sabbath, the Greatful Dead, Cream, Jimi Hendrix. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU5uDozoSSM\\ Here's some Blue Cheer, a pioneer metal band, real garage-like. For some psychedelic stuff i recommend Earthless (not classic but trippy as fuck) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HITHygbE_BA And for Sabbath-like qualities there's Electric Wizard http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnpFhNl0fnc
Yes are the shit. I first time I listened to this song was the Yessongs live version. Mindblowing. One of my fav Yes songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC-FrJ8W0Yc Anyone familiar with Camel? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6JThGQuBo0 Awesome greek band from the 70's: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuHw9bynXFs Also to the OP, if you want some Reggae I suggest checking out Midnite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJUaVVCRlFY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzPgw3xRE10
Yeah South side of the sky is another classic. Yeah I like Camel, Mirage and Snow Goose are both awesome albums, I don't have any others.
Hey i'm into the same kinds of music, mainly reggae but here ya go: For reggae, This is a little different than Bob Marley reggae but you should like it nonetheless http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBSDgoOAd2w Here's great beach reggae: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn3FIB6UIQE Here's my favorite reggae band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URGl1Ruml8w Got a whole Iphone's worth of these bands too if your interested
Are you down with this band that they call Sublime? The Led Zeppelin of the 90's in my opinion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKLLoSMxBXw
After you're done with all entry level prog try moving onto the Canterbury scene. Some of the greatest gems are to be found in it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ovor_ZWrAm8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zvlOu4kT2Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmMdB_X7okg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pk1jsxcXWqE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIgzP4Rj0Ns
Yes sir ^ Fuck I love Gong, Camembert Electrique is like the best album to listen to on trippy drugs. Caravan are also one of my favourites and soft machine nevermind the whole canterbury scene like you mentioned
I realize it's hard for you to see the name Zep and consider whether any other group could be in the same class as them, but if you really examine and listen to the Sublime sound you will notice a few parallels with Zep. Led Zeppelin brought old American blues to a new audience (although they weren't the only band to do so) and succeeded in blending these old sounds into their own style and ended up creating an entirely unique genre of music. Sublime did the same sort of thing with 70's and 80's reggae. They took a niche genre and made it sound good to mainstream audiences. I think it's safe to say that 99% of musicians around the world hold a deep respect for Led Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin truly is a band's band. A musician's band. If you ask around the musical community today, you will hear similar assessments made about Sublime (at least from those who have heard of Sublime). I encourage everyone to look past the 'stoner party band' label that is often attached to Sublime, and really take a good listen to their lesser-known material and maybe even read about their history. This was a great group of musicians, who happened to form a band making the right kind of music at the right time and place. Bradley Nowell's musical abilities are the stuff of legend. He really was a tragic genius. Despite Brad's death, Sublime's story really is a beautiful thing to me. In conclusion I'll leave you with something to consider: Brad Nowell once wrote a song for Sublime using samples from Zeppelin's Lemon Song (which I'm sure you know was a cover of an old blues song). The first half of this video is Sublime, the second half is Led Zeppelin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-a9eCPIxs0
