But if you disagree you get to go to the dungeon... so it might be worth it!

Lixy, it is "Whiter Shade of Pale"...hope I've put your mind at rest...& it is one of the all-time killer rock songs, supposedly derived from J S Bach (& one of the 1st songs I learned when I was playing the Hammond regularly)...also great is LedZep's Kashmir...
One I keep going back to when I need that out-of-body experience is Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"...

Stairway to Heaven
La Grange
Iron Man
Smoke on the Water
Paranoid

Strangle Hold
....All way excellent classics.....

My personal favs, though, are:
Black #1---Type O Negative
Summer Breeze (remake)--Type O Negative
Be My Druidess--Type O Negative
Angel--Astral Sleep
Reptile--Nine Inch Nails
Closer--Nine Inch Nails
Physical--Nine Inch Nails
and track #69 off of Undertow--Tool
Sober--Tool
Blue--A Perfect Circle
or just basically anything that Peter Steele, Trent Reznor, And Maynard James Keenan has done, or influenced

It has to be one of two songs:

Child in Time by Deep Purple or 2112 by Rush.


Or it could be the dark horse candidate: Moonshine by Black Oak Arkansas.

Scotz,

Both, but with addenda on how they relate to the music of the latter 20th Century.

John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band, "On the Dark Side" with all it's connotations.

jseal 03-01-2005 06:29 AM

Can't Buy Me Love, Back In The USSR: The Beatles

Brown Sugar: The Rolling Stones

Purple Haze: Jimi Hendrix

TY sweet cakes! Remind me to suck you...er...thank you personally when we get a chance to chat (soon, I hope)!

I'm more partial to The Immagrant Song (Zep) than Kashmir...but that's prolly just me!
