yuh, just relistened to more of it

i did have #5 down as invisible man by queen, but it didnt sound right...

well those 5 i chose didnt stand up to much did they. ripped apart in under 5 minutes.

what about bonus 1 and 2. 1 should be hard, neigh impossible, unless you are a fan of the band (which ive never heard of btw)

B1 is very easy to me being into 70's prog rock which contained 3 musicians.
Same title as a Verve song too.

very good

i liked the tune to it when i listened to it, but i havent ever heard of them.

incidentally this is a great way to find your next ringtone to set up a little compo like this

Its called Lucky Man by Emerson Lake And Palmer.

Incidentally during the mid 90's I had the biggest MIDI site on the internet and had over 2 million hits.
Slowly I was made to take files off and in the end I took it all off because of the threatening emails

Man, everyone used that Chuck Berry riff in the 60s - even Chuck!

I always thought they loosened the EL34 valve because my Dads band used to do the same in the 60's. The only trouble was after 5 mins it could loosen all the way out.

Van Halens version slow downs after the solo so that DLR can do a few orgasms before going into the 3rd verse where The Kinks version goes straight into the 3rd verse from the solo.

EDIT -
I seem to remember that Jimmy Page actually played the riff on You Really Got Me - could be a myth.

Could have been Page playing the riff, some thought he played the solo as well, since Davies was only 16-17 when they recorded it (not that it matters much)

I don't know if there is much credibility to the speaker thing on the actual recording but he used to cut up cones quite a lot to get that sort of sound.

Well you've buggered me now if ever that question comes up on Who Wants to Be A Millionaire.
I always knew it to be a loose EL34 and now you've chucked another explanation in.
