Lammycat Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Creedence Clearwater Revival > Bayou Country > Green River > Willy and the Poor Boys > Cosmo's Factory. All within 2 years.Still amazes me the number of great tunes they put out for being together less than 5 years.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 I don't really get any enjoyment out of the Clash, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they don't deserve critical respect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Well, you clearly aren't listening to them correctly, then.When you think about it, The Clash are The Clash of Punk/Rock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Winston Legthigh Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Jeff Beck, don't like him dont get him. What's to get? He's a virtuoso. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYlWNb9tmtk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 When you think about it, The Clash are The Clash of Punk/Rock. When you look at it that way, an arguement could be made that Florence and Alice of TV household maid fame were on the same playing field when we all know that couldnt possibly be true.

Plus, I don't remember who the fuck Florence and/or Alice are/were. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamradio Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 The Clash is just.. The Clash. They were in their own universe. If anything they don't get enough critical acclaim. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Nell all the way, dude. Nell? Nell?! Thats just plain crazy talk right there.Except that The Clash "mop the floor" with many other Punk/Rock bands of their era. Plus, I don't remember who the f*ck Florence and/or Alice are/were. Were you even alive in the 1970s? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The world is full of great guitarists but if they don't capture my attention then they are overrated IMHO. I would rather spend all day listening to Paul Westerbergs sloppy playing than have to sit through a single Jeff Beck song because westy sounds interesting Beck does not . Add Beck and Bjork to the lust for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
