ROCK 'n' Roll Halls of Fame

... A Salute To 60's Rock.

"I feel real lucky to have grown up listening to that type of music."

Watching this video, about halfway through I started to get all goosebump-y. Couldn't help it.

Music makes us All Free.

omg how did that happen??

In an earlier post I mentioned Linkin Park when I was actually thinking about Nickelback. That's another mistake that I make quite often. This song, probably my favorite of theirs, made the top 10 in several countries but not in the USA

Friend at work: "You don't like Aerosmith??!"
Me: ".......well......um.....I don't know??"

I honestly had absolutely no idea about this.....the band that wrote the song "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" for the movie 'Armageddon' is the biggest selling American Rock band of all time?

Steven Tyler, Liv Tyler's Dad





Amethystos i'm still waiting for the ballads that you were going to post

It was a good game indeed!
US have a mentality to give their everything in EVERY game, experience in World Cup games and a more than experienced coach.
Hats off!

Well football (or should I say soccer ) is nice to watch cause every team has a GOOD chance to win regardless how strong opposition is.
Portugal has a powerful team but CR is not at his best.
Germany is a Top 6 team, it will be a success for US to hold on a draw.
But I think that US and Germany have already qualified to the next phase.

Today was the 5th anniversary of his passing. He was an artistic genius, he was tireless, he was a perfectionist, he commanded every stage that he ever set foot on, and he was the sweetest guy in the world.

Yep, I agree. But... dang... 1-0. Oh well. Like you said, they still get to advance.

Oh Angie don't you weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes........

Sorry, that's as far as I can get with those lyrics.

Apparently, the writing of this song was first credited to a dude named Nuggy or A. Nugetre. Turn the last name around and you've got Ahmet Ertegun, born in Istanbul, Turkey. That was one incredible man. In the movie Ray (alongside Jamie Foxx) he was played by Curtis Armstrong:

Ray himself in 1989:

The original studio recording, if you prefer: => http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjVVjv92JzA

It was originally released as a 45rpm single.


PS: Thanks to Tessie (your MJ post) for making me think about Ray.

I stumbled on this (not hard to do when I've got 8-10 tabs open on youtube) and think these guys are worth a posting of their own, aside from being covered by Joan Jett:

Now let's listen the original



In 1999, the performing-rights organization Broadcast Music, Inc. (BMI) ranked the song as having had more radio and television play in the United States than any other song during the 20th century.
