My Music Taste

I feel that I have musical tastes that include to minority groups.

I love the kind of progressive rock music or classic rock music.

 

After searching, finally I conclude that music is related to a person's life journey. That's why someone who is exposed to a kind of music will have passion for the kind of music it is.

Sound City

Sound City is a documentary film directed by Dave Grohl about the history of Los Angeles recording studio Sound City Studios.

    A beautiful produced and directed movie. I believe it will go down as one of the best music documentaries ever made. Dave Grohl's passion to revive "the human element" in this age of digital music is evident throughout the movie. See it, and bring a friend, for an inside look at the musical anomaly that was Sound City, and the music business in general. Funny, touching, entertaining & educational.

David Bowie - Where Are We Now?

This is my opinion about David Bowie's song... ummm maybe it called "song review"

Simply beautiful.
Everything you would expect from one of the most influential and enduring artists of all time.
It shows an incredible level of professionalism, and love for what he does, that he could work on this for so long, and keep it under wraps.

Freddie Mercury and Jimi Hendrix

      Freddie Mercury and Jimi Hendrix were the greatest entertainers of all time. The only person with remotely any talent from The Rolling Stones is Keith Ritchards, they caught on because they came out at the right time. Influential? Yes. Talented on the same caliber as Cream, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Black Sabbath, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Beatles... Not a chance, buddy.

Mystic Rhythms: The Philosophical Vision of RUSH

   This book tells about the story of the author's interpretation of the lyrics of the band Rush. Admittedly Rush is one of my favorite bands. Very deep discussion, even sometimes makes me confused because it was too philosophical. But one thing is for sure, it turns a lot of people in an environment of great classic rock music (or often called art rock or progressive rock).

     The songs (especially the lyrics) turned out to form the person concerned personally. I guess the same thing also applies to other types of music. After reading this book, I had the idea to make about my interpretation of writings about some of the classic rock song lyrics. My interpretation would be wrong or different with your interpretation. That one song can have a different impact on different audiences.

    But ... to make a long article it turns out is not easy. Why keep desperate? I cannot resist it. I just cannot writing it! I believe that the lyrics of classic rock songs usually have a charge or a specific message. Sometimes the message is simply an expression of love, but sometimes also politically (e.g. Kansas group called song Cheyenne Anthem tells the story of the struggle of peoples native Americans on American soil, or Rush song titled Manhattan Project that tells the story of the atomic bomb), philosophy, and dissect the mystery of life.

    If you think making posts about interpretations of classic rock songs is a crazy idea, but there are others people who are more crazy. There is a painter who would later make the interpretation of Genesis songs in his paintings. Wow!

    This book is one example that one artist could possibly be one book. Similarly, there are people who say that one album Genesis (e.g. "the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway") can be discussed into a Master's thesis. Whew! This book  also aims to ward off the stereotype that rock music and even worshipped Satan extolling (satan or devil worshipper). Starting from the cover to the Satanist lyrics are explicit. I've found a book that discussed this more specifically.

Ps: I give you some cool websites:

This is only valid for serious classic rock fans.
